A Free-Market Environmentalist Approach To Genetically Engineered Foods, Christie Laporte, Walter Block Jan 2005

A Free-Market Environmentalist Approach To Genetically Engineered Foods, Christie Laporte, Walter Block

Santa Clara Journal of International Law

Although great numbers of the world's population still suffer from starvation, the possibility for genetically engineered foods to alleviate the problem creates great controversy. The authors address common concerns raised by anti-market opponents of the genetically engineered food industry and offer free-market approaches to the apparent dilemma. While such opponents always promote government intervention to alleviate the possible negative outcomes to the genetically engineered food solution, the authors illustrate the market's aptitude and methods by which it could prevail over the still existing starvation problem in the absence of any government intervention.;The paper also reinforces that the market is a …


The Concept Of Jus Cogens And The Obligation Under The U.N. Charter, Kamrul Hossain Jan 2005

The Concept Of Jus Cogens And The Obligation Under The U.N. Charter, Kamrul Hossain

Santa Clara Journal of International Law

Kamrul Hossain, a doctoral candidate at the University of Helsinki, asserts that the language of the United Nations charter is preemptory and, therefore any decision made under the auspices of the Charter, should conform to the norm of jus cogens. The notion of jus cogens returns nation-states to the fundamental idea that state actors are a part of an international community and commands respect for "natural law concepts, which maintain that states cannot be absolutely free in establishing their contractual relations.

Disclosure, Consumer Choice, And The Liberalization Of Agricultural Trade, Michael Ilg

Santa Clara Journal of International Law

Michael Ilg, a doctoral candidate at the University of British Columbia, discusses the difficulties and implications of agricultural liberalization in the World Trade Organization.

Comparative Perspectives On The Office Of Chief Justice, J. Clifford Wallace Jan 2005

Comparative Perspectives On The Office Of Chief Justice, J. Clifford Wallace

Cornell International Law Journal

A comparative study of the duties & activities of Chief Justices indicates that there is considerable variability in the approach of Chief Justices to such things as judicial administration, oversight, & representation. Information was obtained from an informal survey of Chief Justices from 27 countries who were attending a June 2003 Conference of Chief Justices of Asia & the Pacific. Special attention is given to three key aspects of global judicial education: information transmission, training, & peer exchange. The survey responses indicated that Chief Justices encounter similar challenges & share common purposes; however, there are substantial differences in the extent …

The Iraqi Special Tribunal: A Human Rights Perspective, Michael A. Newton

Cornell International Law Journal

In this article in the Symposium on Milosevic & Hussein on Trial, the author argues that the creation of the Iraq Special Tribunal (IST) is warranted under the existing structure of international law, & accords the highest aspirations of those who purport to believe in the rule of law. The legal authorities for the creation of the Special Iraqi Tribunal in Articles 64 & 43 of the Hague regulations regarding occupation, legal authority through the UN Security Council Resolution 1483, & the Coalitional Provisional Authority are defined. The structure of the IST is described in terms of jurisdictional reach, procedural …


Letting Bayous Be Bygones: Should Louisiana Be Allowed To Mandate Use Of The Pre-Socialist Vietnam Flag?, Nami Kim Jan 2005

Letting Bayous Be Bygones: Should Louisiana Be Allowed To Mandate Use Of The Pre-Socialist Vietnam Flag?, Nami Kim

Washington International Law Journal

The State of Louisiana recently enacted S.B. 839, a state law that mandates the use of the flag of the former Democratic Republic of Vietnam at all state-sponsored public functions and public schools where Vietnam is to be represented. S.B. 839 has added further tension to the relationship between Vietnam and the United States, which is already strained by the unresolved issue of American prisoners of war ("POWs"), those missing in action ("MIA") in Vietnam, and the recent opening of Vietnam's economy to the rest of the world. Although fifty-nine cities and three other states in the United States have …

Is Poetry A War Crime? Reckoning For Radovan Karadzic The Poet-Warrior, Jay Surdukowski Jan 2005

Is Poetry A War Crime? Reckoning For Radovan Karadzic The Poet-Warrior, Jay Surdukowski

Michigan Journal of International Law

This Note will suggest that the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) can use Karadzic's texts and affectations to warrior poetry in the pretrial brief and in admitted evidence, if and when Karadzic ultimately appears for trial. The violent nationalism of radio broadcasts, political journals, speeches, interviews, and manifestos have been fair game for the Office of the Prosecutor to make their cases in the last decade in both the Yugoslavia and Rwanda Tribunals. Why should poetry, perhaps the most powerful maker of myth and in the Yugoslavia context, a great mover …


Be Reasonable! Thoughts On The Effectiveness Of State Criticism In Enforcing International Law, Michael Y. Kieval Jan 2005

Be Reasonable! Thoughts On The Effectiveness Of State Criticism In Enforcing International Law, Michael Y. Kieval

Michigan Journal of International Law

It is not concerned with determining what international law does or does not "in fact" allow States to do in combating terrorism and other existential threats.


Is Unilateral Humanitarian Intervention Compatible With The U.N. Charter?, Petr Valek Jan 2005

Is Unilateral Humanitarian Intervention Compatible With The U.N. Charter?, Petr Valek

Michigan Journal of International Law

The main topic of this Note is the compatibility of unilateral humanitarian intervention with Article 2(4) of the U.N. Charter (the Charter). Through its interpretation, the author will attempt to discover whether the Grotian idea of unilateral humanitarian intervention can survive in the environment of contemporary international law without its "just war appendix." This Note will separate this idea from its "just war justification" and approach the question of the compatibility of such intervention with the Charter as a legal positivist. In the interpretation of Article 2(4) of the Charter, this Note will try to avoid moral principles. Instead, it …


Instructions In Inequality: Development, Human Rights, Capabilities, And Gender Violence In School, Erika George Jan 2005

Instructions In Inequality: Development, Human Rights, Capabilities, And Gender Violence In School, Erika George

Michigan Journal of International Law

This Article argues that the international community's gender equality targets will not be realized by 2015 because the problems associated with sexual violence against girls in schools are situated at an intersection of contested conceptual divides between human rights (civil and political liberties) and development aims (social and economic needs). Cracks in the conceptual foundations of both the liberal and utilitarian theories of justice and equality, which support traditional human rights advocacy and economic development plans, respectively render each approach inadequate to fully identify and address the grave danger sexual violence and harassment in schools pose to educational equality. In …
