Data Beyond Borders: Mutual Legal Assistance In The Internet Era, Andrew K. Woods
Data Beyond Borders: Mutual Legal Assistance In The Internet Era, Andrew K. Woods
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
The global nature of today’s Internet services presents a unique challenge to international law enforcement cooperation. On a daily basis, law enforcement agents in one country seek access to data that is beyond their jurisdictional reach; as one industry analyst put it, there has been, “an internationalization of evidence.” In order to gain lawful access to data that is subject to another state’s jurisdiction, law enforcement agents must request mutual legal assistance (MLA) from the country that can legally compel the data’s disclosure.

Faculty Scholarly Works
One of the most significant regulatory developments for legal services is their inclusion in the 1994 General Agreement on Trade in Services or GATS.

Although originally applied to the regulation of broadcasting, the author contends that the market for loyalties theory can also be applied to the Internet.

Taking Globalization Seriously: Towards General Jurisprudence (Book Review Of Globalization And Legal Theory By William Twining), Doron M. Kalir
Law Faculty Articles and Essays
Part II provides an account of the jurisprudence of Globalization and Legal Theory. Due to the novelty of many of the issues discussed in the book, as well as their importance to the understanding of Twining's recommendations, I have provided a longer than usual account of several chapters. Part II touches upon one of the central jurisprudential dichotomies introduced by Twining—the distinction between general and particular jurisprudence. Twining compares different accounts of the distinction using pairs of canonical jurists. In particular, he compares H.L.A Hart's Postscript with Dworkin's Law's Empire. In this part, I juxtapose Twining's record of this …
