International Criminal Law And The Role Of Narrative In The War In Ukraine, Jonathan Hafetz
International Criminal Law And The Role Of Narrative In The War In Ukraine, Jonathan Hafetz
Pace International Law Review
This article examines the multiple ways that international criminal law (ICL)—the body of international law that seeks to impose criminal responsibility on individuals for international crimes—has impacted the conflict in Ukraine. Most violations remain unpunished, and ICL’s legal accountability mechanisms continue to face significant obstacles. But even absent prosecutions and trials, which remain contingent on an array of shifting factors, ICL has affected the Ukraine conflict in multiple ways.
The article focuses on how ICL has helped shape narratives about the war in Ukraine. In doing so, the article cautions against a strict law/politics dichotomy and instead focuses on the …

A Global Puzzle: Integrating Iot Jurisprudential Approaches, Colin Savino
Pace International Law Review
While devices in the Internet of Things (hereinafter “IoT”) such as smart appliances, smart watches, and pacemakers are intended to make life easier and safer, they sometimes complicate users’ lives with system failures and expose them to new risks instead. Users suffer the risks stemming from hastily developed cybersecurity in IoT devices, sometimes with serious consequences and without recourse against manufacturers or cybercriminals. Cybercriminals’ ability to exploit gaps in cybersecurity from anywhere makes the IoT especially risk-prone to transnational crime and may make tort claims against multinational manufacturers tenuous on issues of causation and actual harm suffered. Most problematically, the …

Old Wine In A New Bottle? – An Empirical Evaluation Of The Judicial Reforms In China In The 2010s, Peter C.H. Chan
Old Wine In A New Bottle? – An Empirical Evaluation Of The Judicial Reforms In China In The 2010s, Peter C.H. Chan
UC Law SF International Law Review
This article provides an empirical evaluation of the effectiveness of the judicial reform measures implemented in China in the 2010s. Among other objectives, the reforms aimed to strengthen the independence of judges, the financial autonomy of courts and the professionalism of adjudicators. Critics have questioned the success of the reforms, citing continued government intervention with adjudication and unchanged structural problems with courts. To date, there has been limited empirical literature focusing specifically on the judicial reform measures in the 2010s in China. This article provides a glimpse into what really was happening on the ground since the reforms through the …
“Whale Wars” — Are The Japanese Whaling Just Because They Can? A Testament Of Failed International Whaling Policy, Katy Rotzin
“Whale Wars” — Are The Japanese Whaling Just Because They Can? A Testament Of Failed International Whaling Policy, Katy Rotzin
UC Law SF International Law Review
This paper analyzes whaling law and practices in Japan. This paper briefly compares Japanese whaling to whaling in Norway and Iceland, as well as Indigenous whaling but mainly focuses on Japan’s domestic ethos around “whaling culture,” their policies, which perpetuate whaling even though the industry is no longer profitable, and their unique relationship with the International Whaling Commission. This paper further analyzes the International Whaling Commission’s main document, the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling, and its inability to keep rogue nations in check, and recommends that anti-whaling nations combine both soft law and sanctions to pressure Japan to …

Gender Pay Gap: Human Rights Violations Against Mexican Women Under The Cedaw And Udhr, Valerie M. Garcia
Gender Pay Gap: Human Rights Violations Against Mexican Women Under The Cedaw And Udhr, Valerie M. Garcia
Immigration and Human Rights Law Review
The gender pay gap is an ongoing reality for women in Mexico, where domestic human rights commissions have reported it to be 76.5% as of 2023. As one of the Latin American countries with the highest gender pay gap, this paper analyzes the extent of government efforts to narrow the gap throughout different presidential administrations. Contemporaneously, the role of cultural machismo in Mexican society was examined to determine its impact on legal drafting and application for the benefit of women. The findings showed that cultural machismo and a passive government have impeded the closing of the gender pay gap and …

The International Centre For The Settlement Of Investment Dispute (Icsid) Annulment Reform: A Lesson Learned From The World Trade Organization Struggle, Putu George Matthew Simbolon, Tiurma Mangihut Pitta Allagan
Indonesian Journal of International Law
This article expresses how ICSID can learn from the WTO’s current struggles due to the Appellate Body vacuum. To achieve that, this article consists of three discussions. The first discussions analyze the uncertainties caused by the vagueness of International Investment Law’s (IIL) absolute standards, due to the absence of a multilateral investment treaty. The second discussion expresses the elements of the Multi-Party Interim Arbitration Arrangement (MPIA Arrangement) that shall be taken into account by ICSID. The third discussion provides how the current ICSID annulment mechanism shall be reformed. Those issues are answered through doctrinal research in a prescriptive manner. In …
Implementation Of The Cedaw In France And Indonesia: Challenges And Progress Towards A Unified Approach To Women's Rights, Louna Maret
Indonesian Journal of International Law
Almost fifty years after the adoption of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) and 189 ratifications, it is interesting to analyze the progress and challenges remaining regarding a unified approach to women’s rights. This paper will focus on Indonesia and France, two countries with different cultural backgrounds and approaches regarding human rights. The research methods are mostly based on lectures of legal journal articles, papers, and recent periodic reports of the Committee that ensure the implementation of the CEDAW. After recalling the historical context of women’s rights in both countries to highlight the …
Whose International Law Is It Anyway? The Battle Over The Gatekeepers Of Voluntarism, Shelly Aviv Yeini
Whose International Law Is It Anyway? The Battle Over The Gatekeepers Of Voluntarism, Shelly Aviv Yeini
Michigan Journal of International Law
International law has been ruled by the theory of voluntarism for the course of the last two centuries. It is currently being challenged by competing theories, which do not see states’ consent as the main justification for international law. The theories of naturalism, international constitutionalism, and communitarianism all consider justification for international law to lie elsewhere than the realm of consent. While each theory provides a different framework for explaining the validity of international law, they all seek to justify their dissent from consent. Naturalism, international constitutionalism, and communitarianism view states as participators in the making of international law alongside …

The Politics And Consequences Of State Secession, Olawale Olumodimu
The Politics And Consequences Of State Secession, Olawale Olumodimu
St. Mary's Law Journal
This Article argues that the non-express prohibition of state secession in the Nigerian Constitution does not automatically allow component states to break away unilaterally. It appears the framers of the Constitution wanted to ensure political continuity and national unity rather than allow for Nigeria’s disintegration. Beyond Nigeria, international law only allows unilateral secession in the context of decolonization and the people’s right to self-determination.
Nigeria has a responsibility to provide self-determination to its citizens; however, secession is not a legal channel to seek self-determination in the absence of targeted, widespread, or systemic criminal acts committed by or on behalf of …
Remodeling The Fruitless Link Between The Security Council And The International Criminal Court: Why Amending The Un Charter Could Be The Greatest Tribute International Politics Has Ever Paid To International Law, Mickey Isakoff
Et Cetera
Established in 2002, the International Criminal Court (“ICC”) has become a symbolic cornerstone of international criminal jurisprudence—prosecuting and convicting individuals for the commission of genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and crimes of aggression—collectively referred to as atrocity crimes.
One way the ICC can lawfully exercise jurisdiction is by referral—in the form of a resolution—from the UN Security Council. The language of Charter of the United Nations and the Rome Statute collaborate to provide an avenue for the Security Council to grant the ICC jurisdiction over atrocity crime situations. Such resolutions grant the ICC full jurisdiction over the suspected …
Humour, A Meditation, John Henry Schlegel
Humour, A Meditation, John Henry Schlegel
Dalhousie Law Journal
Back in 1987 when Critical Legal Studies was still “hot,” I was shopping a piece that was a long review essay on Laura Kalman’s history, Legal Realism at Yale. An acquaintance who was on that faculty invited me to present the piece—which I am still quite proud of—at the workshop he was running. Owen Fiss was the first person to ask a question. He wanted to know whether the piece was “serious” work or whether it was just an elaborate joke. Surprised and bewildered by the question, I answered, “Both.” In response he asserted that unless it were one or …
Why The Multilateral Investment Court Is A Bad Idea For Africa, Akinwumi Ogunranti
Why The Multilateral Investment Court Is A Bad Idea For Africa, Akinwumi Ogunranti
Dalhousie Law Journal
The UNCITRAL Working Group III (WG III) is discussing procedural reforms in the investor state dispute settlement system (ISDS). The ISDS framework is criticized on various grounds, including arbitrator bias, lack of transparency, and inconsistent arbitral decisions. One of the recent reform proposals before the WG III is the possibility of a multilateral investment court (MIC). This proposal is championed by European Union states and supported by Canada. The proposal recommends replacing ISDS’ Ad hoc investment tribunals with an established and permanent court where states appoint judges. This paper examines the MIC reform option and argues that replacing the ISDS …
Natural Resources In The Arctic: The Equal Distribution Of Uneven Resrouces, Ganeswar Matcha, Sudarsanan Sivakumar
Natural Resources In The Arctic: The Equal Distribution Of Uneven Resrouces, Ganeswar Matcha, Sudarsanan Sivakumar
Sustainable Development Law & Policy
This paper analyses the governance machine in place at the Arctic and examines the application of the principles of “common heritage of mankind” at the Arctic. This paper also offers some tentative propositions aimed at protecting Out Bound investment rights and how the World Trade Organization or other countries, like the U.S., can intercede in the Arctic investment sphere and attempt to regulate along with the United Nations Convention for the Law of the Sea.

Anti-Abortion Authoritarianism: The Rise Of Restriction On Voting Rights And Free Speech Post-Dobbs, Emma Kalucki
Anti-Abortion Authoritarianism: The Rise Of Restriction On Voting Rights And Free Speech Post-Dobbs, Emma Kalucki
Immigration and Human Rights Law Review
Following the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision, state governments have individually addressed abortion rights through legislation. Many Republican controlled state legislators have taken extreme authoritarian and harsh measures to push anti-abortion legislation; however, these measures, while addressing abortion rights, heavily infringe on basic human rights guaranteed to the American people. More specifically, the proposed amendment to Ohio’s State Constitution in August 2023 violated Ohioan’s essential voting rights and Idaho’s No Public Funds for Abortion Act blatantly infringes upon public university professor’s First Amendment freedom of speech.
287(G): Ice Deputizing Local Law Enforcement Harms Migrants And Local Communities, Charles Powers
287(G): Ice Deputizing Local Law Enforcement Harms Migrants And Local Communities, Charles Powers
Immigration and Human Rights Law Review
Section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act authorizes the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to form agreements with local law enforcement departments; deputizing them for ICE’s objectives while they continue to serve their local municipalities. This program has resulted in racial profiling, the stripping of liberties, and wrongful detentions. In recent years, municipalities have signed 287(g) agreements at a staggering rate. The UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination issued a report pleading for the US to end this practice, yet there seems to be no end in sight. In this essay, I hope to explain …

Examining The Negotiation Model Of The Disputed Boundary Between Indonesia And Malaysia On Sebatik Island, Amin Nurdin, Sudjito Atmoredjo, I Made Andi Arsana
Indonesian Journal of International Law
Sebatik Island is a disputed territory between Indonesia and Malaysia, known as one of the Outstanding Boundary Problems (OBP). The island was divided into two parts by the Dutch and British, based on the 1891 Boundary Convention and the 1915 Boundary Agreement. In 2019, after a long negotiation process, the two countries agreed to re-demarcate the boundary line by planting new boundary pillars. The results of the re-demarcation have not yet been agreed upon by Indonesia and Malaysia, resulting in unclear boundaries of sovereignty and jurisdiction. This study aims to examine the negotiation model of dispute resolution on Sebatik Island. …
Exclusive Legal Personality Of States In East Asia And The Legacy Of Bandung Pragmatism, Tetsuya Toyoda
Exclusive Legal Personality Of States In East Asia And The Legacy Of Bandung Pragmatism, Tetsuya Toyoda
Indonesian Journal of International Law
One of the significance of the Bandung Conference was the down-to-earth realism. The People's Republic of China (PRC) was among the major promoters of the conference, despite its mostly unrecognized status in the international community. The exclusive legal personality is the central tenet of the modern system of international law, where non-sovereign entities are strictly discriminated against sovereign ones. The introduction of international law in East Asia in the late-nineteenth century was particularly troublesome with the eventual denial of legal personality of semi-sovereign entities, such as the kingdom of Lew Chew, the Joseon dynasty, or the government of Tibet. East …
