Critical Tax Theory In The U.S., Australia, And Brazil: Current Challenges And Perspectives For The Future, Júlia Silva Araújo Carneiro
Critical Tax Theory In The U.S., Australia, And Brazil: Current Challenges And Perspectives For The Future, Júlia Silva Araújo Carneiro
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
Tax law has never been a neutral field. On the contrary, it impacts a range of identity axes, including socioeconomic class, race, and gender, and can act as a mechanism for maintaining the status quo or as a catalyst for social change. By examining the ongoing debate on critical tax theory in the United States, Australia, and Brazil, this Article shows that, no matter the differences found in distinct tax systems, tax law functions as a mirror of a country’s values and can be employed either to support or to disadvantage minorities.<.p>American critical tax scholars have consistently highlighted the …

Fashion Upcycling As Protected Free Speech In Trademark Law, Martin Senftleben
Fashion Upcycling As Protected Free Speech In Trademark Law, Martin Senftleben
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
Fashion upcycling offers unprecedented opportunities for the sustainable reuse of clothing. Using second-hand garments as raw material for new creations, upcyclers transform used pieces of clothing into new fashion products that may become even more sought-after than the original source material. The more fashion elements enjoy trademark protection; however, the more legal obstacles arise. Fashion upcycling may trigger allegations of consumer confusion, brand dilution, and unfair freeriding. As the Introduction will explain, the exhaustion of trademark rights after the first sale does not necessarily dispel concerns about trademark infringement. The rearrangement of branded garment components in the upcycling process may …

Leveling The Playing Field: Navigating The ‘Name, Image, And Likeness’ Rules For International Student-Athletes In The United States, Colsen Khaze Centner
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
This Note analyzes the NCAA’s new ‘Name, Image, and Likeness’ (“NIL”) guidelines and their impact on international student-athletes. The NCAA’s NIL guidelines allow student-athletes to profit off of their own name, image, and likeness, a benefit that would have made them ineligible to maintain their amateur status and compete in the NCAA two short years ago.1 While the NCAA’s NIL guidelines can generate substantial compensation for some of the NCAA’s most prolific student-athletes, international student-athletes are limited in the NIL opportunities they can enjoy based on various immigration restrictions.2 If an international student-athlete is found to be in violation of …
Failure To Influence: Legislation Requiring Social Media Influencers To Disclose Their Retouched Images Will Not Address Youth Body Image Concerns, Michael Stuart
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
In 2013, Israel’s Act Limiting Weight in the Modelling Industry first came into effect, requiring advertisers to disclose when images of commercial models have been digitally altered. The Act, which was the first of its kind, has come to be known as Israel’s “Photoshop Law” and was designed to help models maintain healthy weights and to ensure transparency in fashion advertising. Now, in response to growing concerns over body image issues linked with youth social media consumption, several nations around the world, including Norway and the United Kingdom, have proposed or enacted regulations that require social media influencers to add …
Liquidated Damages In The New Civil Code Of China: Underpinnings, Confusion, And Reforms, Wei Wen
Liquidated Damages In The New Civil Code Of China: Underpinnings, Confusion, And Reforms, Wei Wen
University of Pennsylvania Asian Law Review
The new Civil Code of the People’s Republic of China (“the Code”), enacted by the National People’s Congress (“NPC”), is now the most authoritative statute in private law matters. The Code has three rules for liquidated damages. The first rule gives contracting parties the freedom to agree on this remedy and enjoy its convenience and clarity. It reduces the burden of proof, saves judicial resources, and respects freedom of contract. The second rule lets contracting parties request the courts to increase or reduce pre-set amounts that are disproportionate to the losses caused by breaches. This unique and flexible mechanism balances …
River Water Regulation In India: The Challenges Of The Entangled State, Mia M. Rahim, Guy C. Charlton, Abhay Kanwar
River Water Regulation In India: The Challenges Of The Entangled State, Mia M. Rahim, Guy C. Charlton, Abhay Kanwar
University of Pennsylvania Asian Law Review
The inland river water regulations in India have become complicated by debates over river ownership, environmental sustainability, native aspirations, and industrial growth. This Article argues that such complexities surrounding the river water regulations inform a “state of entanglement” which cannot be addressed without invoking the unique way the Indian state is embedded within Indian society. This Article suggests that public interest litigation and increased participation for stakeholders and the common people may offer an effective mechanism to overcome the obstacles of the entanglement of state and society in India.
Cross-Border Insolvency Cooperation Between Mainland China And Hong Kong Sar: The 2021 Arrangement And Its Improvement, Jingxia Shi
University of Pennsylvania Asian Law Review
As the world’s second-largest economy, China has become a critical venue for high-profile cross-border insolvency proceedings in recent years. The evolution of China’s insolvency law and the pertinent judicial practice, especially its cross-border aspects, remains in infancy. This development underscores the significance of the 2021 Arrangement between Mainland China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (“Hong Kong SAR”) on crossborder insolvency cooperation (the “2021 Arrangement”). The Arrangement not only caters to the unique demands under the “One Country, Two Systems” policy but also incorporates legal advancements and institutional features from the 1997 United Nations Commission on International Trade Law …

A One-State Solution To The Arab- Israeli/Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: A Recommendation Supported By A Review Of The Historical Record And Current Context, Samuel Horowitz
UC Law SF International Law Review
This article examines the legal underpinning of the creation of the state of Israel and historical documents to note that despite calls for a two-state solution at the UN, a one-state solution to the conflict is not necessarily precluded. It then identifies why both the status quo and the proposed two state solution are problematic and untenable. Lastly, it looks to the example of South Africa because of similarities between South Africa and modern day Israel/Palestine. It concludes that the creation of a single state, following the example of post-apartheid South Africa, is the only solution to the conflict that …

Old Wine In A New Bottle? – An Empirical Evaluation Of The Judicial Reforms In China In The 2010s, Peter C.H. Chan
UC Law SF International Law Review
This article provides an empirical evaluation of the effectiveness of the judicial reform measures implemented in China in the 2010s. Among other objectives, the reforms aimed to strengthen the independence of judges, the financial autonomy of courts and the professionalism of adjudicators. Critics have questioned the success of the reforms, citing continued government intervention with adjudication and unchanged structural problems with courts. To date, there has been limited empirical literature focusing specifically on the judicial reform measures in the 2010s in China. This article provides a glimpse into what really was happening on the ground since the reforms through the …

Ccpa/Cpra: Consumers Bear The Burden As Companies Bear The Crown, Jacklin Lee
UC Law SF International Law Review
Examining the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) is important for understanding United States privacy law. They were pioneering legislation in that the CCPA was one of the first comprehensive state-level privacy laws in the United States when it was enacted in 2018, introducing new rights for California residents regarding their personal information and imposed obligations on businesses handling data. The CPRA, passed in 2020, builds upon CCPA and further enhances privacy protections. These laws have served as models for subsequent privacy legislation at both the state and federal levels. They embody key principles …
“Whale Wars” — Are The Japanese Whaling Just Because They Can? A Testament Of Failed International Whaling Policy, Katy Rotzin
“Whale Wars” — Are The Japanese Whaling Just Because They Can? A Testament Of Failed International Whaling Policy, Katy Rotzin
UC Law SF International Law Review
This paper analyzes whaling law and practices in Japan. This paper briefly compares Japanese whaling to whaling in Norway and Iceland, as well as Indigenous whaling but mainly focuses on Japan’s domestic ethos around “whaling culture,” their policies, which perpetuate whaling even though the industry is no longer profitable, and their unique relationship with the International Whaling Commission. This paper further analyzes the International Whaling Commission’s main document, the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling, and its inability to keep rogue nations in check, and recommends that anti-whaling nations combine both soft law and sanctions to pressure Japan to …

Egypt’S Legal Modernism: Challenging The National Discourse, Mohamed A. El-Deeb
Egypt’S Legal Modernism: Challenging The National Discourse, Mohamed A. El-Deeb
Theses and Dissertations
Egypt’s legal modernity is the story of the modern Egyptian state itself. Reforming the country’s judiciary in the late nineteenth century was meant to achieve ambitious aims beyond the functionality of a justice system. The utmost goal was the country’s independence from the suzerainty of the Ottoman Empire. The judicial reforms modernized the Egyptian state and built a judiciary and legal community like no other place. Egypt achieved its independent judiciary before gaining its political independence. That was a remarkable achievement of the judicial reform. That rich part of Egypt’s modern history is negated and disregarded from public awareness. Not …

Shareholders’ Agreements In Public Corporations In Chile: What Are We Missing Out?, Gonzalo Islas, Osvaldo Lagos, Iván Cerda
Shareholders’ Agreements In Public Corporations In Chile: What Are We Missing Out?, Gonzalo Islas, Osvaldo Lagos, Iván Cerda
University of Miami Inter-American Law Review
Shareholders’ agreements are quite common in many jurisdictions. Theory and empirical evidence suggest that they may have a positive or a negative impact on corporate governance structures depending on companies’ characteristics and on the goals that these contracts pursue. Shareholders’ agreements may be used as Control Enhancement Mechanisms (CEM) allowing controllers to circumvent rules that favor minority investors. However, comparing to other CEM, in many countries information regarding them is scarce. Is it necessary that shareholders’ agreements in public corporations be fully informed?
We examine the case of Chile (a country that only requires to inform that a shareholder agreement …
