Human Rights, Human Duties: Making A Rights-Based Case For Community-Based Restorative Justice, Aparna Polavarapu
Human Rights, Human Duties: Making A Rights-Based Case For Community-Based Restorative Justice, Aparna Polavarapu
William & Mary Journal of Race, Gender, and Social Justice
Restorative justice is often framed as an alternative to the criminal legal system, and thus justifications of restorative justice tend to be rooted in the language of the criminal system. However, this approach limits our way of thinking about the practice of restorative justice, especially non-state, community-based practices. This Article argues for an independent, rights-based justification to support these community-based practices. By offering an in-depth analysis originating from a rights-based perspective, this Article engages with two underdeveloped areas of scholarly literature and suggests a new way of thinking about the day-to-day practice of restorative justice through a human rights lens. …

The Importance Of Administrative Appeals As Second Instance Bodies To Strengthen Migration And Asylum Systems, Gabriela Richard Rodriguez
The Importance Of Administrative Appeals As Second Instance Bodies To Strengthen Migration And Asylum Systems, Gabriela Richard Rodriguez
Refugee Law & Migration Studies Brief
According to data from UNHCR's Report, "Global Trends - Forced Displacement in 2022," there were 108.4 million forcibly displaced people worldwide in 2022; in the first half of 2023 alone, there were 110 million displaced people, indicating that 2023 could double the figures of 2022. Based on my experience as an administrative judge in the Administrative Migration Tribunal in Costa Rica— a body of second instance in the migration system— I consider that, in view of the impact that the migration and asylum systems had had in countries of transit and destination, it is essential that there be second instances …
Advancing The Due Process Right To Appointed Counsel In Immigration Removal Proceedings, Chloe Schalit
Advancing The Due Process Right To Appointed Counsel In Immigration Removal Proceedings, Chloe Schalit
Refugee Law & Migration Studies Brief
Right now, noncitizens only have the right to an attorney if they can afford one. While courts have grappled with the inherent due process issue accompanying this standard, no court has held that noncitizens have the right to a government- appointed attorney. This paper promotes the provision of government-appointed attorneys to noncitizens in removal proceedings in immigration court under a due process lens. This paper will first briefly examine the difference between criminal and civil matters related to the Sixth Amendment right to an appointed attorney. Next, the paper will engage in a Fifth Amendment due process analysis, ultimately concluding …

First, this paper will discuss the ethical issues posed by CBP One—specifically asylum seekers' unequal access to the app. Second, this paper will examine the equal protection implications posed by CBP One and the application of constitutional rights to noncitizens inside and outside the U.S. Next, it will address the ongoing litigation concerning the extension of constitutional rights to noncitizens arriving at the southern border. Lastly, it will discuss the incompatibility of CBP One with the Immigration and Nationality …
Education And Empowerment: The Role Of Cash Transfers In Challenging Barriers To Female Schooling In Mexico And Malawi, Kaelynn R. Mcclure
Education And Empowerment: The Role Of Cash Transfers In Challenging Barriers To Female Schooling In Mexico And Malawi, Kaelynn R. Mcclure
Lux et Fides: A Journal for Undergraduate Christian Scholars
Despite the wide body of research that supports the benefits of education in reducing poverty and empowering individuals, women around the world continue to face significant barriers to schooling. This paper examines key social norms and aspects of poverty hindering the path to education for girls and women, proposing the use of cash transfers to promote education worldwide. Case studies of two different cash transfer programs, PROGRESA in Mexico and SCTP in Malawi, are evaluated in terms of their effectiveness in providing opportunities for schooling and promoting women's empowerment.
Public Health And Human Health Implications Of Climate Mobility, Julia Neusner, Ama Francis
Public Health And Human Health Implications Of Climate Mobility, Julia Neusner, Ama Francis
Sabin Center for Climate Change Law
Climate change poses significant challenges at the intersection of human and public health, mobility, and international law. Adverse climate impacts undermine the quality of human and public health, contributing to increasing global mobility, while climate-impacted migrants and displaced people can experience severe health challenges in transit and in their receiving communities. Moreover, the nexus between climate change, human and public health, and mobility exacerbates pre-existing vulnerabilities, undermining human rights and implicating State obligations. As international and regional courts, including the International Court of Justice (ICJ), clarify states’ duty to protect people from the adverse impacts of climate change, it is …
Legally Sanctioned Takings Of Black Children: How Slavery Reverberates In The Modern Child Welfare System, Abigail Mitchell
Legally Sanctioned Takings Of Black Children: How Slavery Reverberates In The Modern Child Welfare System, Abigail Mitchell
The Scholar: St. Mary's Law Review on Race and Social Justice
This article explores the link between the taking of Black children from their families perpetrated as part of American slavery and modern takings in the modern family policing system. This article posits that underpinning both systems is a pervasive paternalism that purports to be benevolent but has been weaponized to systematically traumatize Black children and villainize Black parents. This article takes a sweeping historical perspective and connects the same discourse used to justify slavery to that which has permeated the modern family policing system.

Immigration and Human Rights Law Review
This article delves into the complex legal landscape surrounding farmworker rights, shedding light on a demographic often marginalized and overlooked within the broader scope of labor and immigration law. Despite their indispensable contributions to the agricultural industry, farmworkers frequently face a myriad of challenges, ranging from hazardous working conditions to limited access to basic labor protections. Drawing from legal analysis, empirical research, and real-life cases, this paper explores the historical context, current legal framework, and pressing issues concerning farmworker rights in the United States.
Beginning with an examination of the historical roots of farm labor exploitation, the article elucidates the …

Toxic Love: Mandating Standards In Arkansas’S Domestic Violence Laws, Alia B. Reddell
Arkansas Law Review
This Comment addresses the current scheme of domestic violence statutes, highlighting the inadequate state of domestic violence remedies and the ineffective law enforcement guidelines currently in place; it argues that the Arkansas State Legislature is in need of reforming its domestic violence policies. This recommendation is three-fold and proposes that Arkansas should abandon its current discretionary regime and adopt: (1) mandatory arrest policies; (2) statutory post-arrest procedures; and (3) mandatory

Journal of Educational Research and Practice
Individuals from diverse minority backgrounds in the United States represent a one-of-its-kind collaboration in understanding diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) challenges in workforce staffing and representation per Equal Opportunity norms. This study involved primary and secondary research in the realm of DEI to develop an implementable model from lessons gleaned from the findings of the research and gaps found in contemporary hiring and staffing practices. The study and model development are grounded in Rawls’s 1971 theory of justice and predicated on the premise that opportunities are usually based on merit, and are generally well-intended, although often constrained by the …

Examining The Historical Evolution And Contemporary Significance Of Human Rights, Ailing Lu
Themis: Research Journal of Justice Studies and Forensic Science
This paper delves into the complex concept of human rights, examining its historical evolution and contemporary significance through the perspectives of Lynn Hunt's "Inventing Human Rights," Michelline R.

Hunt's work explores the 18th-century Enlightenment, highlighting the political foundations of natural, equal, and universal rights. Ishay provides a comprehensive account spanning ancient civilizations to modern globalization, emphasizing the dynamic nature of human rights struggles. Moyn challenges conventional views, asserting the mid-20th century emergence of contemporary human rights amidst the Cold War and failed utopian visions. While each historian offers …
Preventing Conflict-Related Sexual Violence In Ethiopia: An Applied Approach Towards Prevention, Leah Yared
Preventing Conflict-Related Sexual Violence In Ethiopia: An Applied Approach Towards Prevention, Leah Yared
Master's Theses
The Ethiopia-Tigray civil war is one of the deadliest conflicts in recent world history and quickly drew international attention for the mass reports of sexual violence, war crimes, and ethnic cleansing by federal militants. Mass rapes and sexual violence were used along ethnic lines to devastate and displace communities in Ethiopia. Despite the signing of the peace agreement in November 2022 to cease hostilities, the sexual violence has not come to an end. The violence has consequently spread to the Afar, Amhara, and Oromia regions, neighboring Tigray. The sexual violence in Ethiopia was core to the armed conflict. Nonetheless, the …
Dispossession Is Nine-Tenths Of The Law: Understanding How Property Law Is A Tool Of Dispossession Of Fundamental Human Rights, Kathryn Schulte
Dispossession Is Nine-Tenths Of The Law: Understanding How Property Law Is A Tool Of Dispossession Of Fundamental Human Rights, Kathryn Schulte
Immigration and Human Rights Law Review
The United States government’s systemic dispossession of Native peoples’ land and resources violates international law under the United Nations Declaration of Rights of Indigenous Peoples’ (UNDRIP). It is not a coincidence that the U.S. government has failed to adopt UNDRIP as binding domestic legislation, but a means to maintain the racist status quo upon which the country’s property laws were created. It is imperative that the United States legally recognizes the rights of Native People in order to provide justice for the millions wronged by the violence of settler colonialism. This article will begin with an introduction to the history …
Justice For Crimes Bigger Than Borders: The Product Of The Extradition Of Pinochet, Lauren Schwab
Justice For Crimes Bigger Than Borders: The Product Of The Extradition Of Pinochet, Lauren Schwab
Immigration and Human Rights Law Review
Universal jurisdiction is a tool that allows States to prosecute perpetrators of heinous crimes, even when the crimes are seemingly unrelated to the prosecuting country. While the principles of universal jurisdiction are not a new concept, the frequency at which universal jurisdiction is used has rapidly increased. The explanation for this explosion in the use of universal jurisdiction is a direct product of the extradition of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet to Spain for war crimes and genocide. While Pinochet’s case ended long ago, the impact it left on the international legal community will live on for decades to come. This …
Advancing Human Rights Education In The United States: A Call For Action In The Public Education System, Shannon M. Conroy
Advancing Human Rights Education In The United States: A Call For Action In The Public Education System, Shannon M. Conroy
Immigration and Human Rights Law Review
Human rights education is education about, through, and for human rights. In 2004, the United Nations General Assembly implemented the World Programme for Human Rights Education. The World Programme provides global coordination for human rights education and promotes a common understanding of human rights education. Over the last twenty years, the United States failed to implement either federal or state human rights education programs. This article examines the academic and international discussion about human rights education for students in the United States, and argues for the need for stronger human rights education in public primary, secondary, and higher education institutions …
Decriminalization Of Sex Work In The United States: Protecting The Right To Bodily Autonomy And Health, Taiylor Ryan
Decriminalization Of Sex Work In The United States: Protecting The Right To Bodily Autonomy And Health, Taiylor Ryan
Immigration and Human Rights Law Review
Despite the legalization and reluctant acceptance of pornography and sites like OnlyFans, the United States continues to criminalize sex work. While the work that sex workers perform is similar to that of pornography or OnlyFans, sex workers are not afforded the same protections under the law. As a result of criminalization, sex workers are forced to work in unsafe conditions. Fear of facing criminal charges keeps sex workers from turning to the police when they need help or need to report a crime. Criminalization also adds to the stigma surrounding sex work, creating barriers that prevent sex workers from receiving …

Gender Pay Gap: Human Rights Violations Against Mexican Women Under The Cedaw And Udhr, Valerie M. Garcia
Immigration and Human Rights Law Review
The gender pay gap is an ongoing reality for women in Mexico, where domestic human rights commissions have reported it to be 76.5% as of 2023. As one of the Latin American countries with the highest gender pay gap, this paper analyzes the extent of government efforts to narrow the gap throughout different presidential administrations. Contemporaneously, the role of cultural machismo in Mexican society was examined to determine its impact on legal drafting and application for the benefit of women. The findings showed that cultural machismo and a passive government have impeded the closing of the gender pay gap and …

But they have not worked hard enough.This article explores the human rights violations normalized through the continued, widespread practice of hazing. It first dives into the history of hazing practices within the United States, Portugal, and Thailand, focusing on hazing occurring within universities and affiliated organizations. Next, through an examination of national and international laws, this article criticizes the lack of each respective government’s action to …
