Implementing The Oslo Accords, Edward Bennett Miller

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article argues that a stable and lasting peace between Israel and the Palestinian Authority (PA) cannot be achieved without a shared commitment to fundamental values such as freedom, democracy, and the rule of law. It critiques the current peace process for neglecting these principles and instead prioritizing economic growth and political expediency. The analysis emphasizes that the PA's failure to establish a functioning judiciary, its disregard for human rights, and its authoritarian governance undermine the prospects for long-term stability and peace in the region. The article advocates for a new approach to the peace process that prioritizes democratization and …

Cabining Freedom: A Comparative Study Of Lesbian And Gay Rights In The United States And Canada, Credence Fogo

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article examines the divergent approaches of Canada and the United States in addressing gay and lesbian equality, highlighting how their differing legal frameworks and cultural values shape the protection of rights. While Canada, under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and its Section 1 balancing test, has expanded relationship rights for sexual minorities, the U.S. has taken a more fragmented approach, emphasizing individual liberties over social rights. The analysis underscores the tension between Canada's communitarianism and the U.S.'s individualistic legal culture in advancing LGBTQ+ rights.

The Alien Tort Claims Act And The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act: A Policy Solution, Marc Rosen

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The note examines the evolution and effectiveness of the Alien Tort Claims Act (ATCA) and related legislation, such as the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act (AEDPA), in addressing human rights violations. It argues that while the ATCA has been a groundbreaking tool for litigating human rights abuses, its implementation has been inconsistent and often undermined by subsequent laws like the AEDPA, which fails to adequately account for international law obligations. The analysis highlights the tension between U.S. domestic law and global human rights standards, concluding that the AEDPA is flawed as a human rights enforcement mechanism and proposes a …

The Russian Title Registration System For Realty And Its Effect On Foreign Investors, Lev S. Batalov

Washington Law Review

The recent privatization of real property is an important step in Russia's transition from a planned to market economy. This privatization creates opportunities for foreigners in the Russian realty market. However, foreigners are not likely to enter this market unless rights to immovable property are certain and secure. This Comment describes the new Russian immovable property Registration Law and argues that, despite its drawbacks, it creates a workable system that will provide certainty and security in rights to Russian immovable property. Furthermore, the Comment advises foreign investors on how to avoid potential problems the new law creates.

Unilateral Refusals To Deal In Intellectual Property After Image Techical Services, Inc. V. Eastman Kodak Co., Brian F. Ladenburg

Washington Law Review

While the Federal Patent and Copyright Acts give patent and copyright holders limited exclusive rights in intellectual property, the Sherman Act prohibits combinations or conspiracies that restrain trade and monopolization. Although firms possessing intellectual property generally exercise their statutory exclusionary rights without running afoul of the antitrust laws, conduct may plausibly be authorized by intellectual property law but forbidden by antitrust. In construing the two statutory schemes, federal courts have generally held that conduct authorized by the intellectual property laws, in the absence of some further inculpatory action, cannot form the basis for antitrust liability. The Ninth Circuit departed from …

Mad Cows, Offended Emus, And Old Eggs: Perishable Product Disparagement Laws And Free Speech, Lisa Dobson Gould

Washington Law Review

In the wake of the 1989 controversy over Alar use on apples, several states enacted laws providing a civil cause of action to producers damaged by false statements disparaging the safety of their perishable food products. Commentators have suggested that these laws are unconstitutional and contrary to the First Amendment's free speech protections. This Comment argues that the majority of state laws either meet or exceed the constitutional protections established by the U.S. Supreme Court's defamation cases. However, these laws are unlikely to be used widely in the future because of their stringent proof requirements and because such suits often …

In The Wake Of Lough V. Brunswick Corp.: Who Decides Experimental Purpose In 35 U.S.C. § 102(B) Public Use Cases?, Chad P. Webster

Washington Law Review

Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 102(b), a defendant can avoid liability for patent infringement if the patented invention was in public use in the United States more than one year prior to the date of patent application. Although "public use" is broadly construed to include most nonsecret uses, a nonsecret use pursued primarily for bona fide experimental purposes is merely an "experimental use." Experimental use negates the conclusion that an invention was in public use within the meaning of section 102(b). In Lough v. Brunswick Corp., the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held that the issues …
