Economic Integration As A Means For Promoting Regional Political Stability: Lessons From The European Union And Mercosur, Thomas Andrew O'Keefe Dec 2004

Economic Integration As A Means For Promoting Regional Political Stability: Lessons From The European Union And Mercosur, Thomas Andrew O'Keefe

Chicago-Kent Law Review

The Article explores ways to ensure the future economic viability and the territorial integrity of Kosovo, whether as an independent state or as an entity with autonomous powers under the sovereignty of Serbia. The Article discusses the experiences of the European Union and MERCOSUR economic integration projects that have led to permanent peaceful relations among the participating countries, and contributed to overcoming historically bitter rivalries and conflicts. In examining the EU experience, the Article explores how supranational institutions coupled with the concept of subsidiarity have heightened regional autonomy within existing national states and made demands for secession both redundant and …


The European Union And The Final Status For Kosovo, Adrian Toschev, Gregory Cheikhameguyaz Dec 2004

The European Union And The Final Status For Kosovo, Adrian Toschev, Gregory Cheikhameguyaz

Chicago-Kent Law Review

'This Article presents the current policy of the European Union toward the final status for Kosovo—"Standards before Status"-and analyzes potential future developments of the EU's final status position. The March unrests in Kosovo caused a split among the EU institutions, and the reactions of the EU institutions in response to the unrests have varied. Nonetheless, the March unrests may have been the catalyst for a new discussion within the EU about Kosovo. This Article asks which of the EU institutions is the most important decision maker and determines that, of all of the EU institutions that assume different powers within …


The Designation Of "Distinct Population Segments" Under The Endangered Species Act In Light Of National Association Of Homebuilders V. Norton, Katherine M. Hausrath Dec 2004

The Designation Of "Distinct Population Segments" Under The Endangered Species Act In Light Of National Association Of Homebuilders V. Norton, Katherine M. Hausrath

Chicago-Kent Law Review

The term "distinct population segment" in the Endangered Species Act has no defined scientific meaning. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service have jointly promulgated a policy requiring a distinct population segment to be both: (1) discrete and (2) significant. However, the implementation of this policy has led to inconsistent listing decisions and the failure to list distinct populations of species that require protection under the Endangered Species Act. These problems are clearly illustrated in National Association of Homebuilders v. Norton, in which the plaintiffs sued the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in district …

An Architecture For Spam Regulation, David Dickinson Dec 2004

An Architecture For Spam Regulation, David Dickinson

Federal Communications Law Journal

Junk email, commonly referred to as "spam," is the current scourge of the Internet. In late 2004, unwanted email messages were being delivered at a rate of 12.4 billion per day. The variety of tools used to combat spam have failed to make a significant impact. Legislative efforts, such as the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, met with substantial enforcement complications. The communications industry responded with a variety of technical advances, such as filters and blacklists, but those innovations are still unable to reliably distinguish between wanted and unwanted messages. Real coordination between legislative and technical spam control tactics has yet …


Competition Versus Regulation: "Mediating Between Right And Right'* In The Wireless And Wireline Telephone Industries, Benjamin Douglas Arden Dec 2004

Competition Versus Regulation: "Mediating Between Right And Right'* In The Wireless And Wireline Telephone Industries, Benjamin Douglas Arden

Federal Communications Law Journal

The wireline telephone industry in the United States is the most complete and sophisticated system in the world, built under 100 years of strict government regulation. While the wireline telephone industry was built under a scheme emphasizing regulatory control, the infancy of the wireless telephone industry has been subject to increasing deregulation and reliance on free market forces to guide the industry's development. It has been suggested that this shift in policy reflects the acknowledged failure of strict government regulation. This Note argues that the shift in regulatory policy reflects a difference in circumstances between the development of the wireless …

Between A Rock And A Hard Place: Sovereignty And International Protection, Fred L. Morrison Dec 2004

Between A Rock And A Hard Place: Sovereignty And International Protection, Fred L. Morrison

Chicago-Kent Law Review

Resolution for final status for Kosovo will require the participants to steer a course between claims of national sovereignty and those of international guarantees and controls. Negotiation of that status will require the parties to resolve a broad range of issues, ranging from economic and transit matters to the protection of minority rights. Establishment of an international commission to protect minority rights, perhaps modeled on the European Commission on Human Rights under the original form of the European Convention on the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, may be a useful first step in providing non-adversarial resolution of controversies …


Political Dynamics Within The Balkans: The Cases Of Bosnia & Herzegovina, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Serbia, And Montenegro, Lisen Bashkurti Dec 2004

Political Dynamics Within The Balkans: The Cases Of Bosnia & Herzegovina, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Serbia, And Montenegro, Lisen Bashkurti

Chicago-Kent Law Review

The Essay intends to analyze the regional and local political dynamics within the Balkans and focuses on the most problematic and disputable areas after the Cold War. Through analyses of individual states, bilateral relations, and regional relations, the author gives a broad and complex view of the current and future reconfiguration of the Balkans. Individual cases with contradictory political trends, interstate problems with reciprocal implications, regional "domino effects" of overall solutions, and local and international engagements to support the process in accordance with the modern trend of democratization and integration of the Balkans are included in the Essay's laboratory of …


The Insufficiency Of International Legal Personality Of Kosova As Attained Through The European Court Of Human Rights: A Call For Statehood, Iliriana Islami Dec 2004

The Insufficiency Of International Legal Personality Of Kosova As Attained Through The European Court Of Human Rights: A Call For Statehood, Iliriana Islami

Chicago-Kent Law Review

The Essay starts with the question whether the idea of a "sovereign state" should wither away in the face of new processes, namely globalization and human rights, processes which are sweeping the world. My conclusion is that the bureaucratic rationale of statehood allows citizens to improve their human rights through participation in a political process. If human rights are not respected, international law would support the national law system that is akin to statehood.


Resolving Claims When Countries Disintegrate: The Challenge Of Kosovo, Henry H. Perritt Jr. Dec 2004

Resolving Claims When Countries Disintegrate: The Challenge Of Kosovo, Henry H. Perritt Jr.

Chicago-Kent Law Review

Final status for Kosovo must include a mechanism for resolving claims incident to the breakup of Yugoslavia and the secession of Kosovo from Serbia. Models and theory drawn from other experiences with the dissolution of states provide only partial guidance for Kosovo because the earlier efforts tended to neglect private claims and tended to concern successor states where sovereignty was clearer than it has been during the period of international administration of Kosovo. The most attractive possibility for Kosovo is to establish an international tribunal modeled in part on the Iran and Iraqi claims tribunals, with some decision makers appointed …


Human Rights, Sovereignty, And The Final Status Of Kosovo , Bartram S. Brown Dec 2004

Human Rights, Sovereignty, And The Final Status Of Kosovo , Bartram S. Brown

Chicago-Kent Law Review

The final political status of Kosovo is ultimately a human rights issue, and a just and viable solution must balance the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Serbia with the human rights of Kosovar Albanians. A century ago Woodrow Wilson publicly endorsed self-determination as a fundamental principle linked to the equal rights of all peoples. Today it is broadly accepted as one of the essential principles of contemporary international law. Despite this exalted normative status, the principle of self-determination is limited by its inherent ambiguities.

Self-determination is a group right, to be exercised only by peoples, but there is no clear …


Self-Determination Under The Terms Of The 2002 Union Agreement Between Serbia And Montenegro: Tracing The Origins Of Kosovo's Self-Determination , Enver Hasani Dec 2004

Self-Determination Under The Terms Of The 2002 Union Agreement Between Serbia And Montenegro: Tracing The Origins Of Kosovo's Self-Determination , Enver Hasani

Chicago-Kent Law Review

State building of the union between Serbia and Montenegro represents the biggest challenge for peace and stability in the Balkans and beyond, with the issue of an unsettled Kosovo as an everlasting indicator of that challenge. The USM Agreement alone is not enough to produce the desired results. Only an overall, nonterritorial restructuring of Kosovar society along the principles and norms of the rule of law, democracy, and the respect for human and minority rights can produce the desired results. An approach based on new internal territorial divisions, such as the ongoing process of decentralization, can only further exacerbate the …
