The Danish Cartoon Controversy And The Rhetoric Of Libertarian Regret, Robert A. Khan
The Danish Cartoon Controversy And The Rhetoric Of Libertarian Regret, Robert A. Khan
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
The publication of cartoons insulting the prophet Mohammed created afar greater controversy in Europe than it did in the United States. In this article, I attempt to trace this difference to broader differences in the way Americans and Europeans think about offensive speech. While Americans have developed a language of "libertarian regret, " which allows them to criticize speech that they nevertheless concede the legal system must protect, Europeans are much more concerned about the threat posed by acts of intolerance. As a result, Europeans tended to view Muslim protests against the cartoons as a potential harbinger of totalitarianism. By …

The National Flood Insurance Program: Maintaining Its Head Above Water, Aparna Kirknel Majmudar
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review

This article examines the validity of the two main criticisms of NFIP, and seeks to inform a better understanding of NFIP's integrity through a comparative analysis between NFIP and several different flood insurance models in Europe. As a result, this analysis yields recommendations that can benefit NFIP, as well …

Tobacco Control And The Role Of Litigation: A Survey Of Issues In Law, Policy, And Economics, Basil C. Bitas, Pedro P. Barros
Tobacco Control And The Role Of Litigation: A Survey Of Issues In Law, Policy, And Economics, Basil C. Bitas, Pedro P. Barros
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
This article examines the course of tobacco litigation in the United States and its implications for law and policy on both the national and international levels. In our view, the disparate legal traditions and attitudes of countries outside the United States will lead the majority of such states to opt for the direct and transparent regulation of tobacco activities through formal and perhaps consensual channels. This will likely promote effective tobacco control without the policy mix encompassing a period of prolonged litigation buttressed by settlement and regulation, which has characterized the U.S. process. Therefore, despite some increased litigation in the …

The [Capital] Punishment Fits The Crime: A Comparative Analysis Of The Death Penalty And Proportionality In The United States Of America And The People's Republic Of China, Ryan Florio
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
The governments of both the United States and China maintain the death penalty as a means of punishing its most dangerous criminals, but with an astounding 68 capital offenses, China perennially remains the world leader in executions. This article examines the theory of proportionality of criminal punishment and how it relates to the respective death penalty policies in the United States and China. A comparative analysis will reveal two extremely different societies with two different perspectives on proportionality. one that recognizes and protects fundamental freedoms and another that places emphasis on collective societal welfare over individual rights. The article will …
Habeas Corpus, Constructive Custody And The Future Of Federal Jurisdiction After Munaf, Karen Shafrir
Habeas Corpus, Constructive Custody And The Future Of Federal Jurisdiction After Munaf, Karen Shafrir
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
In 2004-05, two American Citizens, Shaqir Omar and Mohamed Munaf were separately arrested in Iraq and placed in the Camp Cropper Military Facility, pending adjudication. Both prisoners filed writs of habeas corpus in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. The primary issue that the lower courts grappled with was whether or not the courts had jurisdiction to hear the petitions. After various appeals, the United States Supreme Court concluded that the federal courts did have jurisdiction to entertain the habeas petitions but that the petitions would fail on the merits. This paper argues that the standard …
