Human Rights And Culture Heritage In International Law, Ana Filipa Vrdoljak
Human Rights And Culture Heritage In International Law, Ana Filipa Vrdoljak
Ana Filipa Vrdoljak
Regional and international conflicts defined as a so-called ‘clash of civilisations’, civil conflicts from Central and South America, to former Yugoslavia, from the north Africa and the Middle East to Southeast Asia, and discrimination against and persecution of vulnerable individuals within ethnic or religious communities, appear to indicate tensions between human rights and culture at all levels of society, from the global to the local, from the collective to the individual. Despite the growing cognisance of these cleavages, the international community rather than suppressing cultural, ethnic or religious differences, has actively promoted the importance of cultural diversity and religious tolerance …

Four Challenges Confronting A Moral Conception Of Universal Human Rights, Eric Blumenson
Four Challenges Confronting A Moral Conception Of Universal Human Rights, Eric Blumenson
Eric Blumenson
This Essay describes some fundamental debates concerning the nature and possibility of universal human rights, conceived as a species of justice rather than law. It identifies four claims entailed by such rights and some significant problems each claim confronts. The designation “universal human rights” explicitly asserts three of them: paradigmatic human rights purport to be (1) universal, in that their protections and obligations bind every society, regardless of its laws and mores; (2) human, in that the rights belong equally to every person by virtue of one’s humanity, regardless of character, social standing, disabilities, or other individual attributes; and (3) …

Homage To Filártiga, Perry S. Bechky
Homage To Filártiga, Perry S. Bechky
Perry S. Bechky
The Supreme Court’s new decision in Kiobel severely restricted human rights litigation under the Alien Tort Statute (ATS). In doing so, the Court gravely injured the canonical human rights case of Filártiga. This essay celebrates Filártiga, demonstrating that it survives Kiobel in four key respects: its approach to the sources of international law, its conclusion that international law prohibits torture, its dynamic vision of the way the human rights revolution transformed international law, and its hope that courts can help make real a world without torture. The essay presents Filártiga as a living presence and a beacon for future development …
International Adjudication Of Land Disputes: For Development And Transnationalism, Perry S. Bechky
International Adjudication Of Land Disputes: For Development And Transnationalism, Perry S. Bechky
Perry S. Bechky
This short article offers two observations about international adjudication of land disputes. First, the article shows that such adjudication is intended to further development, but that this goal is served better, if counter-intuitively, by rejecting the so-called Salini contribution-to-development test in favor of case-by-case adjudication on the merits. Second, the article locates such adjudication within the modern trend toward transnationalism, a trend that unites international investment law with human rights law. In light of these observations, the article concludes that international adjudication of land disputes may contribute to such human values as development, human rights, and the rule of law.

The Brandeis Institute for International Judges (BIIJ) has established itself as a significant and world-renowned program that promotes the role of judges working in the domain of international law and justice. Organized by the International Center for Ethics, Justice and Public Life of Brandeis University, the BIIJ provides a venue for judges from international and regional courts to discuss important issues relating to the administration of justice across their varied jurisdictions.
In 2013, the BIIJ was organized, for the first time in its 12-year history, in partnership with outside academic bodies working in the same field. The institute was held …
