The Icann Experiment, Susan P. Crawford

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article argues that the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) derives its legitimacy primarily through a consensus-based governance model, rather than democratic or Administrative Procedure Act (APA)-style frameworks. While ICANN’s consensus model is imperfect and faces challenges such as holdouts and centralized decision-making tendencies, it remains the most viable approach for ensuring accountability, transparency, and global acceptance in internet governance. The article emphasizes that ICANN’s legitimacy depends on demonstrated consensus, as seen in its history, particularly in the development of the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP). It warns that shifting away from consensus toward centralized decision-making risks …

The Enum Protocol, Telecommunications Numbering, And Internet Governance, Craig Mctaggart

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article examines the intersection of technical and governance challenges posed by the ENUM protocol, which bridges traditional telephony and internet systems by converting phone numbers into domain names. It highlights how ENUM's development and implementation have become a focal point for broader debates about internet governance, particularly the balance between national sovereignty and global coordination. The analysis underscores the political and international implications of technical decisions, emphasizing the need for a more neutral and multilateral approach to managing critical internet resources.

Theories Of Cyber-Sociology: Communicating Culture Through Codes, Erica Schlesinger Wass

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article explores the cultural and social significance of country code top-level domains (ccTLDs), arguing that they extend beyond technical identifiers to reflect national identity, values, and priorities. By examining the history, structure, and policies of ccTLDs, the author illustrates how these domains serve as tools for communication, cultural expression, and social change, influenced by a nation's unique history and societal norms.

Providing Access To Generic Antiretroviral Drugs To People Living With Hiv/Aids In Developing Countries: An Examination Of Legal Obligations, Cheluchi Onyemelukwe

LLM Theses

The HIV/AIDS epidemic is a devastating medical, social and economic problem in many developing countries. Presently, the only therapeutic remedies for the disease are antiretroviral drugs, which do not cure HIV/AIDS but are effective in restoring the health of people living with HIV/AIDS. Unfortunately, these drugs are unavailable to many people living with the disease in developing countries. This has been attributed to the exorbitant prices resulting from the patent rights of multinational pharmaceutical companies over the drugs. Legal literature has therefore focused principally on intellectual property rights as obstacles to access to antiretroviral drugs in developing countries. This thesis, …

Honest Beliefs, Credible Lies, And Culpable Awareness: Rhetoric, Inequality, And Mens Rea In Sexual Assault, Lucinda Vandervort

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

The exculpatory rhetorical power of the term "honest belief" continues to invite reliance on the bare credibility of belief in consent to determine culpability in sexual assault. In law, however, only a comprehensive analysis of mens rea, including an examination of the material facts and circumstances of which the accused was aware, demonstrates whether a "belief' in consent was or was not reckless or wilfully blind. An accused's "honest belief" routinely begs this question, leading to a truncated analysis of criminal responsibility and error. The problem illustrates how easily old rhetoric perpetuates assumptions that no longer have a place in …

Longevity Research And Bioethics, Robert A. Bohrer

Faculty Scholarship

AS THE PACE OF SCIENTIFIC ADVANCE accelerates and the era of globalization brings new threats as well as new promises, the world of biotechnology is increasingly forced to confront bioethical issues that once would have been merely theoretical discussions of purely speculative issues in the distant future. This article is intended to provide a perspective on the general problem of ethical frameworks in social decision making and provide an introduction to three fundamental ethical systems: utilitarianism, Kantianism, and Rawlsian justice or fairness. Those frameworks can be used to discuss most areas of significant ethical controversy in biotechnology; however, the focus …
