Subjects Of International Law: A Power-Based Analysis, Guido Acquaviva
Subjects Of International Law: A Power-Based Analysis, Guido Acquaviva
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
In this Article, the Author challenges the definition of the term "state" that is commonly accepted in legal scholarship as the basis for assessing whether an entity is a subject of international law. By analyzing a number of cases that do not fit into the "traditional" model--including the Holy See, Napoleon, and the Confederacy--the Author reaches the conclusion that the only essential element of a subject of international law is its sovereignty.

Michigan Journal of Race and Law
This Article has three interrelated aims. First, I will briefly describe the online world of the legal populists.

Law And Development As Democratic Practice, Thomas F. Mcinerney
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
The importance of law and institutions to development is now widely recognized. Significant amounts of development assistance now target legal and institutional reform. These efforts have generally viewed legal and institutional reform as technical matters. Designing laws and institutions appropriate to local circumstances has been seen as primarily requiring the application of competent expertise. Yet practitioners in this field may gain a different perspective. Reforms that on paper seem wise may not get implemented, and those that are implemented may not achieve their intended aims. In this Article, the Author contends that one reason for this outcome is the failure …

Supporting Sustained Economic Development, Steven Radelet
Supporting Sustained Economic Development, Steven Radelet
Michigan Journal of International Law
There is no magic formula for sustained economic development in poor countries. Strategies that succeed in one country may not be appropriate in another. Yet there are several broad similarities across the countries that have been most successful in achieving development over the past forty years. This Article takes a very broad overview of economic development in low-income countries over this period and makes three basic points.
