Arctic Energy Cooperation, Hari M. Osofsky, Jessica Shadian, Sara L. Fechtelkotter Jan 2016

Arctic Energy Cooperation, Hari M. Osofsky, Jessica Shadian, Sara L. Fechtelkotter

Articles

The Arctic – with almost a third of the world’s remaining natural gas and thirteen percent of its oil – is one of the globe’s last frontiers for competition over unexplored natural resources. The rapid pace of Arctic melting due to climate change has created opportunities to extract the region’s previously inaccessible offshore oil and gas. The 2015 controversy over the Obama Administration’s approval of Shell Oil’s drilling in the Chukchi Sea followed by the company’s decision to pull out highlighted the need for clear and effective regulation of Arctic drilling. Offshore oil spills are difficult to prevent and clean …


Anticompetitive Patent Injunctions, Erik Hovenkamp, Tom Cotter Jan 2016

Anticompetitive Patent Injunctions, Erik Hovenkamp, Tom Cotter

Articles

The current approach for determining when courts should award injunctions in patent disputes involves a myopic focus on the hardships an injunction might impose on the litigants and the public. This article demonstrates, however, that courts sometimes could rely instead on a consideration far more relevant to the patent system's goal of promoting innovation: the extent to which the right to exclude was actually a necessary quid pro quo for the plaintiff's decision to bring its products to market. We illustrate the value of this approach with a critique of a recent Federal Circuit decision, Trebro Mfg. Inc. v. FireFly …


Judicial Lawmaking And General Principles Of Law In International Criminal Law, Neha Jain Jan 2016

Judicial Lawmaking And General Principles Of Law In International Criminal Law, Neha Jain

Articles

General principles of law are a primary mechanism for “gap-filling” in international criminal law. However, their interpretation by tribunals has been fitful, contradictory, and misguided. Given that general principles have been used to settle crucial legal issues that affect the rights of the accused, the confusion concerning their application threatens the legitimacy of international criminal justice. This Article critiques the various conceptions of general principles developed by scholars and tribunals based on the criteria of formal and material validity and exposes the problems with their application in light of comparative law and criminal law theory. The Article challenges international criminal …


Energy Partisanship, Hari M. Osofsky, Jacqueline Peel Jan 2016

Energy Partisanship, Hari M. Osofsky, Jacqueline Peel

Articles

Whether the topic is the Paris Agreement on climate change, greenhouse gas emissions from power plants, the Keystone XL pipeline, hydraulic fracturing, offshore drilling, or renewable energy, much of the U.S. policy dialogue about energy and climate change is deeply partisan. Republicans and Democrats debate individual issues in vitriolic sound bites that indicate minimal common ground. For example, officials favoring robust action on climate change are charged with engaging in a “War on Coal.” Those opposed are labeled “members of the Flat Earth Society.” Set against these dysfunctional climate and energy politics, how can progress be made? For people who …

The Rhetoric Of Negative Externalities, Claire Hill Jan 2016

The Rhetoric Of Negative Externalities, Claire Hill

Articles

The concept of negative externalities is firmly entrenched in economic analysis even though it is almost impossible to apply with any rigor in many important real-world contexts. For instance, what is the baseline from which “pollution” is measured? How clean must the air and water surrounding the firm be? And whose costs must the firm take into account in order to internalize the externalities? Clearly, the firm’s next door neighbors harmed by the polluted air generated by the firm. But what about people who are more remotely affected? There is no neutral way to set the baseline below which deviations …


Remaking Energy: The Critical Role Of Energy Consumption Data, Alexandra Klass, Elizabeth Wilson Jan 2016

Remaking Energy: The Critical Role Of Energy Consumption Data, Alexandra Klass, Elizabeth Wilson

Articles

This Article explores the public policy benefits associated with increased access to energy consumption data as well as the legal and institutional barriers that currently prevent such access. As state and local governments as well as electricity users attempt to improve the efficiency of their buildings, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and realize the promises of improved demand side management of energy resources, the need for electricity and other energy-related data becomes even more pressing. But the current law that balances making energy consumption data available against any privacy or confidentiality interests in the data is underdeveloped. Thus, this Article draws …
