From Mice To Men: Genetic Doping In International Sports, Kristin Jo Custer
From Mice To Men: Genetic Doping In International Sports, Kristin Jo Custer
UC Law SF International Law Review
Elite athletes have a long history of using various doping methods to enhance performance, from ingesting cocaine to injecting growth hormones. The World Anti-Doping Agency has taken a number of steps to rid sports of doping to level the playing field for all athletes. A new frontier in doping, however, is beginning to emerge in the form of genetic doping, whereby athletes may alter their genetic makeup to improve performance and speed recovery from injuries. This note discusses various legal implications and concerns of the rising threat of genetic doping to international sports.
You Say You Want A Revolution: Argentina's Recovered Factory Movement, Adam David Cole
You Say You Want A Revolution: Argentina's Recovered Factory Movement, Adam David Cole
UC Law SF International Law Review
The Recovered Factory Movement in Argentina - in which workers assume control and ownership of factories abandoned by their owners - has piqued the interest of social activists worldwide. However, despite a noticeable buzz within leftist circles, the movement has received little more than a cursory examination from its enthusiasts. This note attempts to nudge the discourse in a substantive direction by explaining the pertinent law, discussing the changes sought by the movement, and analyzing the accompanying policy issues. In so doing, this note is meant to serve as a starting point to encourage more exhaustive treatment of the relevant …
The Use Of Offensive Force In U.N. Peacekeeping: A Cycle Of Boom And Bust, James Sloan
The Use Of Offensive Force In U.N. Peacekeeping: A Cycle Of Boom And Bust, James Sloan
UC Law SF International Law Review
U.N. peacekeeping operations have traditionally been expected to adhere to three key principles: they must operate with the consent of the host state, they must act impartially and they must limit their use of force to self-defense. This article focuses on the final characteristic, the self-defense principle, and chronicles the attitude of the U.N. towards its observance. As the article will show, there have been three main periods where the self-defense principle has been ignored: with ONUC operation in the Congo in the early 1960s, with several missions in the early 1990s and, finally, with the current period, beginning in …
End-Of-Life Decisionmaking For Patients In Persistent Vegetative States: A Comparative Analysis, Suzanne Rode
End-Of-Life Decisionmaking For Patients In Persistent Vegetative States: A Comparative Analysis, Suzanne Rode
UC Law SF International Law Review
The attention that the Schiavo case has brought to end-of-life decisionmaking presents an opportunity to re-examine current laws addressing treatment for incompetent patients. In the United States, the right to self-determination is the primary value in making treatment decisions for incompetent patients. Alternatively the United Kingdom and Australia recognize a more objective "best interest" approach, and Japan places primary importance on the role of families in end-of-life decisionmaking. This note describes these different approaches to making treatment decisions for patients in persistent vegetative states and explores how the "best interest" and family-centered approaches can inform and improve healthcare law in …
Islamic Law In The Jurisprudence Of The International Court Of Justice: An Analysis, Clark B. Lombardi
Islamic Law In The Jurisprudence Of The International Court Of Justice: An Analysis, Clark B. Lombardi
Articles
This Article asks whether ICJ opinions to date suggest that judicial consideration of Islamic legal norms has played, can play, or should play a role in the ICJ's resolution of international legal disputes or in establishing the legitimacy of the results that it has reached. It is structured as follows. Part II gives an initial overview of the ICJ to help us understand how and why judges on the ICJ have reached the answers they have. Part III describes how the ICJ's enabling statute permits the Court, at least in theory, to look at Islamic legal norms. As I will …

Invasive Seaweed: Global And Regional Law And Policy Responses, Meinhard Doelle, Moira Mcconnell, David Vanderzwaag
Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press
We consider law and policy responses to invasive seaweeds at global and regional levels. Key global regimes considered include the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Ramsar Convention and the Bonn Convention on Migratory Species. Contributions from the Food and Agriculture Organization and the International Maritime Organization are also considered in the global context. At a regional level, examples of efforts in North America and Europe are offered to illustrate challenges and opportunities for regional responses to invasive seaweeds. We conclude with law and policy recommendations, most notably the need …

Judicial Review And United States Supreme Court Citations To Foreign And International Law, Ronald A. Brand
Judicial Review And United States Supreme Court Citations To Foreign And International Law, Ronald A. Brand
Articles
Recent decisions by the United States Supreme Court and extracurricular discussions between some of the Justices have fueled a debate regarding whether and when it is appropriate for the Court to make reference to foreign law in cases involving the interpretation and application of the United States Constitution. This debate has, to some extent, paralleled the argument over whether the Constitution is best interpreted by looking at the intent of the original drafters - an originalist approach - or by considering it to be a "living" document that must be interpreted to take account of contemporary realities. This article considers …

Monopolists Without Borders: The Institutional Challenge Of International Antitrust In A Global Gilded Age, D. Daniel Sokol
Monopolists Without Borders: The Institutional Challenge Of International Antitrust In A Global Gilded Age, D. Daniel Sokol
UF Law Faculty Publications
Antitrust has entered a gilded age of increased international domestic legislatures, courts, and agencies, and the market as an institution. Existing institutions each have limitations in their ability to address any of the issues in international antitrust exclusively. This Article argues that the ICN is the institution best suited to address these issues. This approach may assist to identify other regulatory areas in which an ICN modeled "soft law" transnational institutional choice may prove to be the most effective way to address international issues.
The New United States Model Income Tax Convention, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah, Martin B. Tittle
The New United States Model Income Tax Convention, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah, Martin B. Tittle
Articles
On 15 November 2006, the United States Treasury released its long-awaited new Model Income Tax Convention (“New Model”), which replaced the 1996 US Model (“Old Model”). This article reviews some of the major differences between the New and Old Models, as well as some of the major differences between the New Model and the current (2005) OECD Model Tax Convention. The article also discusses some new trends in US treaty policy which are not reflected in the New Model. The article concludes by evaluating the New Model in light of the emerging trend to use tax treaties not just to …
The Foreign Source Doctrine: Explaining The Role Of Foreign And International Law In Interpreting The Constitution, Timothy K. Kuhner
The Foreign Source Doctrine: Explaining The Role Of Foreign And International Law In Interpreting The Constitution, Timothy K. Kuhner
Faculty Publications By Year
This article brings much-needed precision to the debate over the Supreme Court's use of foreign and international law to interpret the Constitution. The debate has been both imprecise, ignoring the subtleties of the phenomenon at issue, and prematurely abstract, jumping to theoretical and ideological levels without first looking to establish the specifics. By focusing on the particular areas of constitutional text subjected to foreign sources and the longstanding lines of caselaw upon which the use of foreign sources builds, this article reveals that a doctrine has crystallized around the use of foreign sources. The doctrine specifies the precise uses to …

Partially Odious Debts?, Omri Ben-Shahar, Mitu Gulati
Articles
The despotic ruler of a poor nation borrows extensively from foreign creditors. He spends some of those funds on building statues of himself, others on buying arms for his brutal secret police, and he places the remainder in his personal bank accounts in Switzerland. The longer the despot stays in power, the poorer the nation becomes. Although the secret police are able to keep prodemocracy protests subdued by force for many years, eventually there is a popular revolt. The despot flees the scene with a few billion dollars of his illgotten gains. The populist regime that replaces the despot now …
Combating Corruption Through International Law In Africa: A Comparative Analysis, Won Kidane, Tom Snider
Combating Corruption Through International Law In Africa: A Comparative Analysis, Won Kidane, Tom Snider
Faculty Articles
"Little did we suspect," remarked Nelson Mandela, "that our own people, when they get that chance, would be as corrupt as the apartheid regime. That is one of the things that has really hurt us." Africa is the only continent that has grown poorer over the last three decades. The causes of Africa's existing predicaments are complete; however, there is no argument that deep-rooted corruption is one of the most serious contemporary developmental challenges facing the continent. Mr. Adama Dieng, who the Secretary General of the Organization of African Unity (OAU), the precursor of the African Union (AU), entrusted with …

Direito À Informação Ou Deveres De Protecção Informativa Do Estado?,, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha
Paulo Ferreira da Cunha
A Liberdade de Informação poderá ser simultaneamente defendida pelo dever de abstenção do Estado na esfera de exercício privado (não perigoso) de cada cidadão ou grupo “ordeiro” de cidadãos, e pelo dever de protecção dos cidadãos e das suas pessoas morais (incluindo obviamente associações e empresas) nos casos em que a ordem natural da rede social equitativa seja rompida, designadamente por fenómenos de massificação arregimentadora, trusts anti-concorrência, violação de direitos fundamentais, etc., e, no limite, crime. Mas o discernimento e ponderação terão que ser muito grandes.

Do Constitucionalismo Brasileiro: Uma Introdução Histórica (1824-1988), Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha

It is not usual to write a constitutional history from the view point of a foreigner. This is a essai of a glimpse of Brazilian constitutional history from the perspective of a Portuguese, descending from Bazilians, descending from Portuguese. In spite of those circunstances, of course the aim was always the possible objectivity in History and in Constitutional Law History.
