Equal Protection For Animals, Pat Andriola
Environmental and Earth Law Journal (EELJ)
This paper presents a simple argument: through a Dworkinian moral reading of the Constitution, nonhuman animals fall under the Supreme Court’s equal protection doctrinal framework for suspect classification. Therefore, nonhuman animals are protected by the Fourteenth Amendment. The moral principle underlying equal protection is the ensuring of government’s empathetic and equitable treatment toward not just subgroups of humans (which have been judicially delineated by social constructs of race, gender, sexuality, and other defining characteristics), but toward all sentient beings who may become victim to the “tyranny of the majority.

The United States, China, And Freedom Of Navigation In The South China Sea, James W. Houck, Nicole M. Anderson
James Houck
The need for a uniform understanding of international norms regarding freedom of navigation is increasingly important as more States develop capacity to act in the international maritime realm.

liability, like, inter alia, onus of proof, conduct barring limitation and forum
shopping are discussed. In the South African limitation regime, shipowners can
discharge the onus by proving an absence of fault or privity. …
