After The Gulf War: Prosecuting Iraqi Crimes Under The Rule Of Law, Louis R. Beres

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

In this Article, Professor Beres proposes that Iraqi crimes committed during the Gulf War should be prosecuted under international law. He suggests that the United States should take the lead in this prosecution, utilizing a Nuremberg-style trial.

The Article first discusses history of the antigenocide regime in the international arena. The criminalization of genocide has been built upon the norms of international custom, natural law principles, and generally-accepted principles of law recognized by civilized nations. Moreover, evidence of this regime may be found in the Genocide Convention, the United Nations Charter, and other treaties and conventions.

Professor Beres next examines …

The North Atlantic Treaty And European Security After The Cold War, Jane E. Stromseth

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

The recent dramatic events in Europe, notably the reunification of Germany, the collapse of Communist rule in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, the start of Soviet troop withdrawals, and the demise of the Warsaw Pact, represent an historic political triumph for the countries of the North Atlantic Alliance. At the same time, these developments have called into question the Alliance's continued relevance in a radically new environment.

Mengele's Birthmark: The Nuremberg Code In United States Courts, George J. Annas

Faculty Scholarship

Experimentation on human beings is so difficult to justify that the attempt is seldom even made. Usually its justification is simply assumed, and vague notions of progress or national emergency are suggested as sufficient rationales. The United States, a society dedicated to both progress and human rights, has been profoundly ambivalent about human experimentation. On the one hand, we have consistently argued in our ethical codes that the rights and welfare of research subjects must be protected; on the other hand, we have consistently used perceived emergencies, both national and medical, as an excuse to jettison individual rights and welfare …

Enforcing The Prohibition On The Use Of Force: The U.N.'S Response To Iraq's Invasion Of Kuwait, Mary Ellen O'Connell

Journal Articles

On August 2, 1990, Iraq invaded and swiftly occupied its neighbor, Kuwait. Within hours, the United Nations Security Council ("Council") condemned the invasion, demanding immediate and unconditional Iraqi withdrawal. During the Cold War, the United Nations (U.N.) rarely responded to aggression with anything more than such resolutions of condemnation. Either the Soviet Union or the United States regularly vetoed proposals to do more. The end of the Cold War has freed the U.N. to enforce the U.N. Charter's prohibition on the use of force. After August 2, it began enforcing the prohibition against Iraq.

When the drafters of the Charter …

Beyond Candor, Scott Altman

Michigan Law Review

In Part I, I consider whether judges might hold inaccurate beliefs that make them more candid and constrained. I suggest that even if theories of neutral decisionmaking are incomplete and inaccurate, a legal system in which judges hold these beliefs about their own behavior could have advantages. If many judges believe that they can, should, and do decide almost all cases by following the law, they might behave differently than they would if they held more accurate beliefs. They might behave so as to facilitate repression and denial, because their self-esteem depends on maintaining the belief that they decide as …
