Intervention To Stop Genocide And Mass Atrocities: International Norms And U.S. Policy, Matthew C. Waxman
Intervention To Stop Genocide And Mass Atrocities: International Norms And U.S. Policy, Matthew C. Waxman
Faculty Scholarship
The collective international failure to stop genocidal violence and resulting humanitarian catastrophe in Sudan prompts the familiar question of whether the United States or, more broadly, the international community has the political will and capabilities necessary to deter or stop mass atrocities. It is well understood that mobilizing domestic and international political support as well as leveraging diplomatic, economic, and maybe even military tools are necessary to stop mass atrocities, though they may not always be enough. Other studies have focused, therefore, on what steps the United States and its international partners could take to build capabilities of the sort …
United States Detention Operations In Afghanistan And The Law Of Armed Conflict, Matthew C. Waxman
United States Detention Operations In Afghanistan And The Law Of Armed Conflict, Matthew C. Waxman
Faculty Scholarship
Looking back on US and coalition detention operations in Afghanistan to date, three key issues stand out: one substantive, one procedural and one policy. The substantive matter – what are the minimum baseline treatment standards required as a matter of international law? – has clarified significantly during the course of operations there, largely as a result of the US Supreme Court’s holding in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld. The procedural matter – what adjudicative processes does international law require for determining who may be detained? – eludes consensus and has become more controversial the longer the Afghan conflict continues. And the …
Think Big And Ignore The Law: U.S. Corn And Ethanol Subsidies And Wto Law, Phoenix X.F. Cai
Think Big And Ignore The Law: U.S. Corn And Ethanol Subsidies And Wto Law, Phoenix X.F. Cai
Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship
Everyone should care about what happens at the World Trade Organization (WTO) in Geneva. This Article argues that new challenges to US corn and ethanol subsidies are highly likely. Even though at first glance this Article deals with the specialized and esoteric field of international trade law, its sweep is much broader. The subject of this Article is also both timely and salient. Part I explains the multi-layered WTO regime on agriculture and subsidies, with particular emphasis on the delicate interplay among multiple WTO agreements. Part II discusses the Upland Cotton case in detail, highlighting in particular the implications for …
Who Is The "Human" In Human Rights? The Claims Of Culture And Religion, Peter G. Danchin
Who Is The "Human" In Human Rights? The Claims Of Culture And Religion, Peter G. Danchin
Peter G. Danchin
Modern critiques of international human rights law force us to confront at least two conceptual puzzles in the area of the claims of culture and religion. The first concerns the two concepts, often run together, of the secular (or secularism) and freedom, and the question of how rights—e.g. the right to freedom of conscience and religion—mediate between these purportedly universal or objective positions and the imagined subjective claims of particular religious or cultural norms. The second concerns the question of what we mean by “human equality” and how this idea relates to deeply-situated issues of collective identity and culture. Such …
Soft Law As Delegation, Timothy L. Meyer
Soft Law As Delegation, Timothy L. Meyer
Timothy Meyer
This article examines one of the most important trends in international legal governance since the end of the Cold War: the rise of “soft law,” or legally non-binding instruments that are given legal effect through domestic law or internationally binding agreements such as treaties. Scholars studying the design of international agreements have long puzzled over why states use soft law. The decision to make an agreement or obligation legally binding is within the control of the states negotiating the content of the legal obligations. Basic contract theory predicts that parties to a contract would want their agreement to be as …
