The Case For An International Court Of Civil Justice, Maya Steinitz
The Case For An International Court Of Civil Justice, Maya Steinitz
Books
When multinational corporations cause mass harms to lives, livelihoods, and the environment in developing countries, it is nearly impossible for victims to find a court that can and will issue an enforceable judgment. In this work, Professor Maya Steinitz presents a detailed rationale for the creation of an International Court of Civil Justice (ICCJ) to hear such transnational mass tort cases. The world's legal systems were not designed to solve these kinds of complex transnational disputes, and the absence of mechanisms to ensure coordination means that victims try, but fail, to find justice in country after country, court after court. …

Book Chapters
Julian Velasco, Delimiting Fiduciary Status, in Research Handbook on Fiduciary Law 76 (D. Gordon Smith & Andrew Gold eds., 2018).
Paul B. Miller, Dimensions of Fiduciary Loyalty, in Research Handbook on Fiduciary Law 180 (D. Gordon Smith & Andrew Gold eds., 2018).
A familiar problem to scholars of fiduciary law is that of definition. Fiduciary law has been called “messy,” “elusive,” and “unusually vexing.” In part, this is because fiduciary law principles appear in many areas of law, but are applied differently in each. This has made the development of a unified theory difficult. Some scholars have doubted …
Privacy As Trust: Information Privacy For An Information Age (2018), Ari Ezra Waldman
Privacy As Trust: Information Privacy For An Information Age (2018), Ari Ezra Waldman
Books
It seems like there is no such thing as privacy anymore. But the truth is that privacy is in danger only because we think about it in narrow, limited, and outdated ways.

With case studies involving websites, online harassment, intellectual property, and social robots, Waldman shows how 'privacy as trust' can be applied in the most challenging real-world contexts to make privacy work for …
