Application Of International Water Law To Transboundary Groundwater Resources, And The Slovak-Hungarian Dispute Over Gabcikovo-Nagymaros, Gabriel Eckstein
Application Of International Water Law To Transboundary Groundwater Resources, And The Slovak-Hungarian Dispute Over Gabcikovo-Nagymaros, Gabriel Eckstein
Faculty Scholarship
The growth in global population and economic development has resulted in tremendous pressures on existing sources of fresh water. Human water use over the past three centuries increased by a factor of thirty-five and is growing by four to eight percent annually. Coupled with recurring international disputes over water resources, poor water management, and the realization that water is an indispensable but finite resource, these trends have propelled the use and management of transboundary groundwater resources to the forefront of legal debate.
Until recently, matters relating to groundwater resources were relatively ignored in the context of international law applicable to …

Why Teach International Family Law In Conflicts?, William L. Reynolds
Why Teach International Family Law In Conflicts?, William L. Reynolds
Faculty Scholarship
[The author] sets forth a challenge to conflicts professors: to teach international family law in their conflict of laws classes. At present, many conflicts professors avoid teaching international family law, in part because the study of this subject is complicated by several statutes addressing particularly difficult issues. Ignorning international family law is unwise, because many United States citizens and lawyers are likely to confront such problems.
Planned Constitution Never Got Written, But Israel Still Got Constitutional Law, Marcia R. Gelpe
Planned Constitution Never Got Written, But Israel Still Got Constitutional Law, Marcia R. Gelpe
Faculty Scholarship
Israel's development of constitutional law without a written constitution presents a fascinating picture of how a system, unable to develop a constitution in the usual manner, has developed one in another manner. It shows how innovative lawmaking can be - and sometimes must be - to maintain a democratic political system.

European Community Law From A U.S. Perspective, George A. Bermann
European Community Law From A U.S. Perspective, George A. Bermann
Faculty Scholarship
Although less than forty years have passed since the founding of the European Economic Community (now the European Community), the lifetime of the Community is well marked temporally. The term of each Commission furnishes a convenient time-line for measuring the Community's progress in legal integration. Since the 1970s, each year has been punctuated by two or more "summit" meetings of heads of state or government. These summits not only are key markings in their own right, but also furnish an occasion for additional monitoring of the Community's state of health. Throughout the 1970s and into the 1980s, the Community submitted …
Global Use/Territorial Rights: Private International Law Questions Of The Global Information Infrastructure, Jane C. Ginsburg
Global Use/Territorial Rights: Private International Law Questions Of The Global Information Infrastructure, Jane C. Ginsburg
Faculty Scholarship
In the private international law of intellectual property, and particularly of literary and artistic property, the basic principle is territoriality. Each country provides for its own regime of protection of works of authorship. The Berne Convention for the Protection and Literary and Artistic Works and the Universal Copyright Convention oblige their members to respect the rule of national treatment, that is, of non discrimination between domestic and foreign works from member countries. This rule reinforces the principle of territoriality, for it confirms the role of local copyright laws, by requiring that local law apply equally to the protection of local …
The Constitutional Responsibility Of Congress For Military Engagements, Lori Fisler Damrosch
The Constitutional Responsibility Of Congress For Military Engagements, Lori Fisler Damrosch
Faculty Scholarship
The U.S.-led military operation in Haiti has unfolded with minimal violence and few casualties so far. That factual proposition – which is necessarily subject to revision – has important ramifications under both U.S. constitutional law and international law. On the constitutional level, the avoidance of hostilities defused what was poised to become a serious confrontation between the President and the Congress. On the international level, doubts in some quarters about the legitimacy of a forcible intervention, although not entirely allayed, were somewhat quieted with the achievement of a negotiated solution, which enabled U.S. troops to bring about the return to …
