Adr In The Digital Age: How Online Platforms Are Better Suited To Resolve Disputes Than Traditional Forums, Matthew Zelman

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

Since Covid-19 remote work has been increasing astronomically in the US. According to a Gallup poll, even now that Covid-19 is in the past, approximately 27% of workers are fully remote, 53% hybrid, and 21% fully on site. While there are significant benefits to working from home, there are detriments including losing key relationships with coworkers. As people could not physically see their coworkers in person and grow and learn from each other’s body language and personal observations, they started losing respect for each other. This led to an increase in conflicts amongst remote workers with one survey finding that …

A Field Guide To Teaching Agency And Ethics: The West Wing And American Foreign Policy, Kayce Mobley, Sarah Fisher

Dialogue: The Interdisciplinary Journal of Popular Culture and Pedagogy

Though political science undergraduate courses reflect a rich theoretical tradition, they typically lack opportunities for students to express intangible concepts through the interpretation of creative works, a standard exercise of critical analysis. Educators can address this dearth in many ways, such as through utilization of popular culture texts. We employ the television series The West Wing to ground debates in American politics, specifically American foreign policy. Although this show has been on air since 2006, Netflix and Amazon have recently released the entire series for streaming, significantly reducing the hassle and monetary cost of using this source in the classroom. …

Helping The Little Guy: A Comparative Analysis Of Shareholder Protection Mechanisms In The United States And Singapore, Jack Schlafly

Georgia Journal of International & Comparative Law

As American corporate law has developed since the Progressive and New

Deal eras, shareholders have increasingly employed the shareholder proposal

mechanism, provided by SEC Rule 14a-8, as a means to achieve any number

of desired results. Generally, Rule 14a-8 requires companies to include

shareholder proposals on their proxy statements. The desires of shareholders,

outside of their often primary desire to make money, now frequently include

Environmental, Social, and Governance (“ESG”) reform, increasing board

diversity, merger and acquisition-related decisions, and monitoring executive

pay. In particular, shareholders’ focus on ESG reform is no surprise given the

broad worldwide focus on responding to …

The Pressing Need For State Sovereignty Recognition For Post-Territorial States, Benjamin Price

Georgia Journal of International & Comparative Law

This note offers an analysis of the retention of national sovereignty by

states that have lost all of their territory, primarily by analyzing the

international recognition of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta as a post-

territorial state. This analysis will be of increasing pertinence as more nations

face territorial loss due to climate change. This paper traces the development

of the Order's role in world politics and its ongoing international recognition

by various nations.

The Ugly Side Of The Beautiful Game: The World Cup’S Impact On The Migrant Labor Crisis In Qatar And What It Means For The United States Of America As Future Hosts, Jack Richardson

Georgia Journal of International & Comparative Law

The 2022 FIFA World Cup hosted in Qatar was mired in controversy.

From the corrupt bidding process to the sub-standard working and living

conditions, Qatar was heavily criticized for its management of the World Cup.

This paper explores two of the main critiques levied against the host nation:

its exploitation of migrant labor and the harsh and restrictive policies against

women and the LGBT community. Concerning migrant labor, the kafala

system is the primary cause of hardship. It is a labor sponsorship system, and

it requires migrant workers to invest time and resources to acquire a job in

Qatar, a …

Stop Carrying The Interest! A Comparison Of U.S. And Chilean Taxation Of Private Equity Fund Managers Under International Human Rights Law, Maggie Carr

Georgia Journal of International & Comparative Law

Why do we tax? How do we tax? Who should we tax? While asked by

almost all of us, these questions are usually answered by a select few.

Economists who work in theoretical realities, lawyers full of jargon, and

legislators with competing interests all have different answers to those

questions. Some might even have different answers depending on who is

asking. Beyond the theory and the jargon, however, lies an underlying base of

equity and fairness that drives all citizens to ask these questions. This Note

will attempt to answer one small piece of these enormous questions by

focusing on …

Formulating Public Pharma, Shweta Kumar

IPIPC Papers & Reports

In 2022, prices for both brand-name and generic drugs in the U.S. were nearly three times as high as prices in comparably industrialized nations, with the cost of insulin products in particular being nearly ten times as high. As a result, 3 out of 10 American adults cannot afford to take their medication as prescribed. Furthermore, in 2024 the U.S. experienced its worst drug shortage in over a decade, with more than 300 drugs in short supply. Generic drugs are particularly vulnerable to shortage, as manufacturers have poor economic incentives to produce drugs with slim profit margins. While the Biden …

Gray Advice, Keith Porcaro

Duke Law & Technology Review

Debates over economic protectionism or the technology flavor-of-the-month obscure a simple, urgent truth: people are going online to find help that they cannot get from legal and health professionals. They are being let down, by products with festering trust and quality issues, by regulators slow to apply consumer protection standards to harmful offerings, and by professionals loath to acknowledge changes to how help is delivered. The status quo cannot continue. Waves of capital and code are empowering ever more organizations to build digital products that blur the line between self-help and professional advice. For good or ill, “gray advice” is …

Can Congress Give Unaffected Taxpayers Standing, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah

Articles

A recurring problem in tax law arises when the IRS promulgates a regulation or a notice that is too favorable to taxpayers.1 The problem is that nobody has standing to challenge the regulation. The IRS cannot challenge its own regulation, and taxpayers affected by the regulation have no interest in challenging it (and even if they did, they cannot show a concrete injury sufficient to establish standing). Congress may intervene, but that is rare for a taxpayer-favorable regulation (indeed, Congress sometimes intervenes to block IRS attempts to roll back its own regulations). Taxpayers unaffected by the regulation do not have …

Does The U.S. Have To Be A Tax Haven?, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah

Articles

The United States is the world’s preeminent tax haven. Tax havens are defined as allowing secrecy and having low or zero tax rates; for nonresident aliens, the United States offers both.

The secrecy results from the fact that, in many U.S. states, it is possible to form a corporate entity without having to disclose information about the identity of the owner. This situation is beginning to change because of the Corporate Transparency Act, but the law has been challenged as unconstitutional. Even this would only apply for U.S. government nontax purposes. A nonresident alien who uses a U.S. limited liability …

Luxury, Legacy, And Resolution: Adr In The World Of Branded Residences, Michael J. Brinn

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

As of mid-2023, there were 690 completed branded residence schemes across the world, with over 600 schemes in the pipeline expected to be delivered by 2030. Branded residences have become increasingly popular in the luxury real estate market, offering a unique blend of high-end living and hotel-like amenities. These developments, often associated with renowned hotels, present an attractive proposition for buyers seeking both a personal retreat and an investment opportunity. The rental programs offered by developers and branding partners in these luxury projects is one of the main attractive aspects for buyers. It offers the owner the best of both …
