The Brazilian Legal Tradition And Environmental Protection: Friend Or Foe, Janelle E. Kellman Jan 2002

The Brazilian Legal Tradition And Environmental Protection: Friend Or Foe, Janelle E. Kellman

UC Law SF International Law Review

Brazil is home to almost forty-two percent of the area known worldwide as the Amazon basin. Despite its tremendous beauty and ecological richness, the Amazon forest is being destroyed at an unprecedented rate.

Microcredit As Model: A Critique Of State/Ngo Relations, Celia R. Taylor Jan 2002

Microcredit As Model: A Critique Of State/Ngo Relations, Celia R. Taylor

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

This article argues that in an era of globalization, increased cooperation between States and NGOs is essential.

State Sponsorship And Support Of International Terrorism: Customary Norms Of State Responsibility, Scott M. Malzahn

UC Law SF International Law Review

International terrorists survive and flourish while working underground and out of sight. However, for all its secrecy, terrorism develops within national borders, often in cooperation with public officials or at the acquiescence of political leaders. This note explores the symbiotic relationship between states and private persons who commit crimes of international terrorism, and analyzes the relevant customary norms of international law that may serve as a legal device to hold states accountable in damages for state sponsorship and support of international terrorism. Although legal remedies to acts of terrorism are not always satisfactory, the potential value and positive externalities of …
