The Wto And Pandemics, Padideh Ala'i, Clemence D. Kim Jan 2021

The Wto And Pandemics, Padideh Ala'i, Clemence D. Kim

American University International Law Review

The COVID-19 pandemic presented the world with a once-in-a-century public health challenge. At the height of the pandemic, measures to curb the disease shut down large swaths of the global economy while worldwide demand for international trade in medical products to fight the pandemic increased, as did dependence on global supply chains to source medical products. The World Trade Organization (WTO) has played an important role in ensuring transparency and market access for trade in medical goods despite the political, legal, and logistical difficulties COVID-19 and the rise of protectionism presented. However, the WTO is positioned to do more by …

Book Review: Hanoch Dagan, A Liberal Theory Of Property (2021), Ezra Rosser Jan 2021

Book Review: Hanoch Dagan, A Liberal Theory Of Property (2021), Ezra Rosser

Book Reviews

Property law does not require an introduction. We deal with property on a daily basis by purchasing and hiring goods, selling financial instruments, renting flats, owning clothes, and registering patents. Each one of us owns or possesses some type of property. Law enters the picture to govern the interpersonal relationships between the people in relation to property objects. A work that offers a full-blown global normative account of property law deserves special attention; it is relevant for each one of us. Professor Dagan’s A Liberal Theory of Property (‘LTP’) is indeed such a work.

This review consists of three parts. …

Equal Prosecution For All: Violent Extremism At The Intersection Of Hate Crime And Terrorism, Gabrielle Leeman Jan 2021

Equal Prosecution For All: Violent Extremism At The Intersection Of Hate Crime And Terrorism, Gabrielle Leeman

American University National Security Law Brief

After a white supremacist used his vehicle as a weapon to purposefully attack anti-racism protestors in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017, federal officials called the incident domestic terrorism. The incident, in fact, met the definition of domestic terrorism. But the perpetrator was not prosecuted under any of the available terrorism statutes. The defendant was instead charged with, and later pled guilty to, committing hate crimes. It is imperative that we recognize all forms of terrorism as terrorism and use the legal system fairly to prosecute all terrorist attacks as terrorism. But the current terrorism statutory framework hinders the ability to prosecute …

Pandemics And International Law: The Need For Action [Turkey], Nilüfer Oral Jan 2021

Pandemics And International Law: The Need For Action [Turkey], Nilüfer Oral

American University International Law Review

INTRODUCTION

As someone who has actually survived two major earthquakes, what we are living through now with the pandemic is a level ten earthquake—devastating and upheaving our lives in so many different ways. As my colleague Patricia Galvao Teles noted, this level of pandemic is a collective experience that we have not seen since a century ago with the Spanish Flu. It has demonstrated to us, as happens in disasters in general, the structural deficiencies of our current system. My colleagues have outlined some of these deficiencies; I will reiterate some of those noted previously but frame this issue in …
