Community Responses To Tourism And Crime, P Brunt, N Hooton

Plymouth Business School

Tourism is known to bring about positive and negative changes to destinations. This paper explores how tourism business owners’ lives and residents within the tourism area of an English seaside resort respond in their behaviour as a consequence of tourism-related crime and their fear of such crimes. Through a mixture of primary and secondary data analysis it is clear that crime in the case study area increases during the tourism season. The results suggested that these are changes in behaviour made by parking in different locations; socialising differently; bypassing specific streets at night; and carrying out additional security checks in …

Interpretation Rules And Good Faith As Obstacles To The Uk's Ratification Of The Cisg And To The Harmonization Of Contract Law In Europe, Nathalie Hofmann

Pace International Law Review

This essay examines Article 7 of the CISG, the provision on the Convention’s interpretation, through the lenses of both German and English law in order to shed light on interpretative issues in which there are divergent views in common law and civil law systems. The essay further provides possible reasons for the non-ratification of the CISG by the UK in contrast to its broad acceptance in Germany. The author more closely examines the issue of good faith as a principle of contract law, its vagueness being one of the possible reasons for the reluctance to ratify the CISG in England. …

Terrorism's Proscription And Core Elements Of An Objective Definition, Jordan J. Paust

Santa Clara Journal of International Law

This essay identifies core elements of an objective definition of terrorism as well as various words and phrases that others have used that are not part of an objective definition. In particular, an objective definition of terrorism must involve an intent of the perpetrator to produce a terror outcome as well as the existence of a terror outcome. The international community has recognized that terrorism is an international crime at least since 1985, but the community has been unable to agree on a definition or various core elements of a definition. This essay provides a possible basis for agreement by …

Coming To Terms With Ruthlessness: Sovereign Equality, Global Pluralism, And The Limits Of International Criminal Justice, Brad R. Roth

Santa Clara Journal of International Law

Nullum crimen sine lege and related doctrines that limit extraterritorial jurisdiction and confer immunity ratione materiae are not inconvenient obstacles to be circumvented, but crucial safeguards to be respected. These doctrines respond to the reality that the international community remains beset by serious moral disagreement, both about what count as just ends and about which harsh measures those ends might justify in circumstances of high-stakes political conflict. In such a world, in which very few hands are truly clean, unilateral invocations of universal principles must be viewed skeptically, and associated exercises of power treated guardedly. Prosecutions undertaken in the name …

Trans-Tec Asia V. M/V Harmony Container: Should American Judges Don Foreign Hats (Or Wigs)?, Anthony R. Bessette

Santa Clara Journal of International Law

The application of foreign law in U.S. federal courts is often spotty at best. Many decisions pay lip-service to the need for international comity and the fair application of foreign law, but this requires extensive research into a wholly unfamiliar body of law which courts and parties are rarely willing to do.

This article examines the Ninth Circuit's recent decision in Trans-Tec Asia v. M/V Harmony, a case which is indicative of this problem. Next, it argues that a more faithful application of foreign law is both increasingly possible and increasingly necessary. A petition for certiorari has been filed in …

Evaluating South Africa’S Post-Apartheid Democratic Prospects Through The Lens Of Economic Development Theory, Jonathan L. Marshfield

Richmond Journal of Global Law & Business

Political scientists have identified compelling correlations between economic development and democratic stability. In general, the wealthier and more developed a country, the greater its chances of maintaining a long-term, stable democracy. This Article evaluates whether South Africa’s post-apartheid economic conditions are trending towards conditions that generally correlate to stable democracies. It compares South Africa’s post-apartheid economic conditions to the empirical trends that development theorists have identified as correlative to democratic stability. This analysis is important because if South Africa’s post-apartheid economic conditions do not exhibit positive trends, this may suggest that despite the just end of apartheid, conditions are becoming …
