The “Self-Executing” Character Of The Refugee Protocol’S Nonrefoulement Obligation, Carlos Manuel Vázquez

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

When the United States ratified the 1967 U.N. Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees (Protocol), it undertook not to "expel or return (refouler) a refugee in any manner whatsoever to the frontiers of territories where his life or freedom would be threatened" on specified grounds. On May 24, 1992, President Bush issued an executive order, known as the Kennebunkport Order, authorizing the United States Coast Guard to interdict vessels on the high seas suspected of containing Haitians destined for U.S. shores and to return such persons to Haiti without regard to whether their lives or freedom would …

Democracy And Socialism In Sandinista Nicaragua, Gary Prevost, Harry E. Vanden

Government and International Affairs Faculty Publications

Moving beyond Cold War rhetoric and stereotypical views of Third World Marxism, the authors convincingly argue that the democratic tradition and practice that was emerging in socialist Nicaragua could well serve as a model for other Third World states. They analyze concepts of democracy and the ideology of the FSLN and show that the Sandinista movement is not in any way stock Marxist-Leninism. Instead, this nationalist variant of Third World Marxism is—like most others—a function of indigenous realities.Vanden and Prevost demonstrate that Nicaragua has seen the establishment of at least three different forms of democracy: popular, participatory democracy (manifested in …

Boundaries and Water: Allocation and Use of a Shared Resource (Summer Conference, June 5-7)

Conference organizers and/or faculty included University of Colorado School of Law professors David H. Getches, Lawrence J. MacDonnell and Charles F. Wilkinson.

Boundaries and Water: Allocation and Use of a Shared Resource is the topic of the Center's annual summer program on water this June. Most of the major rivers in the western United States are shared between two or more states. Often tribal governments play an important role in water allocation and use decisions. International considerations also may be involved in some cases. These interjurisdictional issues extend to groundwater as well as surface water.

This conference will provide the …

Current Developments Concerning The Settlement Of Disputes Involving States By Arbitration And The World Court – Remarks By Lori Fisler Damrosch, Lori Fisler Damrosch

Faculty Scholarship

Our moderator has asked me to talk about the dialogue between the United States and the Soviet Union. With respect to the general contours of the U.S. proposal, I think it is a very constructive one. I do support it, and I urge you all to study it, comment upon it, and try to improve it to take it a bit further. The main feature of it that I want to mention today is the idea of affirmative enumeration of categories of disputes that would be submitted to the Court for jurisdiction as opposed to the historical approach of accepting …

Foreign States And The Constitution, Lori Fisler Damrosch

Faculty Scholarship

This article does not advocate judicial abstention from deciding the constitutional claims of foreign sovereigns. Rather, the argument is that constitutional claims against the actions of the federal political branches must fail on the merits because of the relationship of foreign states to the federal structure. When, on the other hand, a claim does not directly confront or conflict with the political branches' foreign policy, the federal courts should adjudicate the merits of foreign state claims by applying constitutional jurisprudence to sustain or reject the claim. Part III of this article elaborates upon the relationship between the thesis in Part …

The Peasants As A Revolutionary Class: An Early Latin American View, Harry E. Vanden

Government and International Affairs Faculty Publications

We do not regard Marx's theory as something completed and inviolable; on the contrary, we are convinced that it has only laid the foundation stone of the science which socialists must develop in all directions if they wish to keep pace with life.

The Turkish Aid Ban: Review And Assessment, A. A. Fatouros

Articles by Maurer Faculty

In this article, A.A. Fatouros places the U.S. aid-embargo to Turkey in the context of jurisdiction (executive vs. legislative powers) rather than in the context of ideological differences between the two camps. If, as the writer claims, the final concessions to the executive branch by Congress had been predictable, could we conclude that the executive branch is on the road to recovery? And if that is the case, is the Congressional ratification of the recent agreement between Kissinger and Turkey a foregone conclusion? There is of course such a possibility. To avert it, the opponents of the aid and the …
