The Threshold Requirement In Asymmetric Conflicts: A Game Theory Analysis, Alon Cohen, Raphael Bitton Jun 2015

The Threshold Requirement In Asymmetric Conflicts: A Game Theory Analysis, Alon Cohen, Raphael Bitton

Chicago Journal of International Law

In recent years, ad bellum rules have been interpreted more leniently so as to permit forcible responses to terrorism. Yet the threshold level for an “armed attack” that legitimizes full-scale war in response has remained relatively high. This observation is especially puzzling insofar as customary international law reflects the practice of (strong) states, which, as we show, can benefit from credibly committing to lowering their tolerance towards terror attacks. Why is the threshold requirement relatively tolerant? What would be the critical mass of terror beyond which a full-scale war is legitimate? Under what circumstances are states expected to violate the …


Regulations Are A Drag: The Who Framework Convention On Tobacco Control And Its Potential Application To Electronic Cigarettes, Kevin Oliver Jun 2015

Regulations Are A Drag: The Who Framework Convention On Tobacco Control And Its Potential Application To Electronic Cigarettes, Kevin Oliver

Chicago Journal of International Law

The Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) aims to protect present and future generations from the consequences of tobacco consumption and exposure to tobacco smoke. While the treaty has enjoyed widespread adherence, the rise in popularity of electronic cigarettes presents new questions about its scope. These relatively new products do not contain any tobacco and are thus not a major focus of the FCTC. This Comment examines provisions of the FCTC that may authorize its possible application to e-cigarettes and concludes that the treaty has the power to regulate them if scientific consensus suggests that such regulation would be “effective.” …


Drilling For Black Gold: The Demarcation For Hydrocarbon Resources In The Caspian Sea, Ziyad Ziyadzade Jun 2015

Drilling For Black Gold: The Demarcation For Hydrocarbon Resources In The Caspian Sea, Ziyad Ziyadzade

Chicago Journal of International Law

This Comment examines the division of oil and natural gas reserves in the Caspian Sea through the legal prism supplied by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Non-Navigational Uses of International Watercourses. So far, the academic literature concerned with equitable apportionment of the Caspian's hydrocarbon resources has attempted to tackle this issue through two generally accepted legal regimes. The first, commonly identified as the Law of the Sea, classifies the Caspian as a “sea” and divides the resources therein according to a strict, treaty-based framework, which produces an outcome disadvantageous to some of the littoral states. The …


Impossible To Regulate: Social Media, Terrorists, And The Role For The U.N., Paulina Wu Jun 2015

Impossible To Regulate: Social Media, Terrorists, And The Role For The U.N., Paulina Wu

Chicago Journal of International Law

The posting of journalist beheadings online and the arrests of numerous nationals attempting to join terrorist organizations have shown that terrorists are increasingly using social media to spread ideology and recruit members. The popularity of social media around the world provides a huge potential audience for terrorist content. Unfortunately, because of states' inability to cooperate, previous attempts to govern and police the Internet have failed. Any regulation of the Internet or social media also raises collective action problems and baseline definition issues. The U.N. is not in the position to pass a binding treaty or convention because use of social …


The New Refugees And The Old Treaty: Persecutors And Persecuted In The Twenty-First Century, Andrew I. Schoenholtz Jun 2015

The New Refugees And The Old Treaty: Persecutors And Persecuted In The Twenty-First Century, Andrew I. Schoenholtz

Chicago Journal of International Law

When the fledgling U.N. negotiated a treaty to protect refugees after the Second World War, member states focused on Europe as well as on events causing forced migration that occurred prior to 1951. No one imagined that cross-border escape from persecution would become a global phenomenon and remain one more than sixty years later, or that this human rights treaty would be needed in the twenty-first century. In fact, as increased numbers of asylum seekers from developing countries reached the most developed regions of the world during the last thirty years, critics have questioned the merits of this treaty and …
