Decoding Judicial Reasoning In China: A Comparative Empirical Analysis Of Guiding Cases, Runhua Wang

Cleveland State Law Review

The judicial system in China recently started using legal precedents—known as guiding cases—as a new legal source to eliminate adjudicative inconsistency. Guiding cases (“GCs”) present the current judicial reasoning to some extent and can be used to predict the future of judicial reasoning in China. What are GCs? What legal issues do GCs address? How do they address legal issues? How do GCs affect the legal system and adjudication in China? This Article answers these questions with empirical evidence and comparisons to judicial reasoning in the United States. It is the first empirical research providing a systematic review of all …

Classifying Systems Of Constitutional Review: A Context-Specific Analysis, Samantha Lalisan Apr 2020

Classifying Systems Of Constitutional Review: A Context-Specific Analysis, Samantha Lalisan

Indiana Journal of Constitutional Design

Modern constitutional drafters and advisors increasingly use judicial review classifications and the current model for classification does not accurately capture constitutional review in Latin America. This paper proposes context-specific classification that can accurately capture constitutional review in the Latin American region. Specifically, this paper argues that the context-specific analysis suggests that the more salient point of classification in Latin America is that of access mechanisms to constitutional courts. As such, the paper proceeds in four parts: Part I examines the traditional model of classification in Europe and focuses on the Spanish and German direct access mechanisms. Part II explores the …

Indiana Journal of Constitutional Design

This Paper addresses three aspects of judicial budgeting. First, it will identify the four broad families of constitutional provisions that consider the judicial budget.

Other constitutions only broadly address judicial budgeting. Second, we will analyze different approaches to judicial councils. Third, this Paper will address several different approaches to the judicial budgeting process. This includes how the judiciary’s budget is proposed, as well as how it is allocated and managed. Finally, this Paper will touch upon the tension …

Reintegration Of Female Rape Survivors: The Overlooked Priority Of Transitional Justice In The Face Of Mass Wartime Rape, Layla Abi-Falah Apr 2020

Reintegration Of Female Rape Survivors: The Overlooked Priority Of Transitional Justice In The Face Of Mass Wartime Rape, Layla Abi-Falah

William & Mary Journal of Race, Gender, and Social Justice

While mass wartime rape has become a core characteristic of modern armed conflict, transitional justice mechanisms have continuously failed to bring about successful achievement of justice, reconciliation, and truth for female survivors. The abuse, exile, and humiliation of large numbers of female rape survivors by their families and communities leaves entire societies destabilized and susceptible to prolonged instability and state failure, thus obstructing attempts by transitional justice mechanisms to usher in long-lasting peace and stability. To achieve more successful post-conflict reconstruction, transitional justice mechanisms situated in the aftermath of wars marked by mass rape must first focus on the reintegration …

How To Establish Labor Protection Standards For Kenyan Local Workers In Chinese Multinational Corporations, Qun Zhao Apr 2020

How To Establish Labor Protection Standards For Kenyan Local Workers In Chinese Multinational Corporations, Qun Zhao

Washington International Law Journal

China has increased investment into Kenya since it proposed the Belt and Road Initiative. Many Chinese State-Owned-Enterprises (“SOEs”) and private companies have established their presence in Kenya; most of them engage in labor-intensive industries like infrastructure building or manufacturing. Labor-intensive work requires companies to hire many local workers, which gives rise to labor conflicts between Chinese employers and Kenyan employees. Major conflicts between the two parties stem from several factors including informal hiring, wrongful termination, and tense relations with Kenyan labor unions. This article suggests that Chinese companies in Kenya should comply with Kenyan labor law to resolve labor issues …

People's Movements As A Strand Of Popular Constitutionalism: Driving Forces, Distinctive Features, And Dilemmas, Binendri Perera

Washington International Law Journal

Constitutional democracies claim themselves to be constructed upon the will of the people. As the agency gap between the rulers and the ruled widens, people are increasingly more frustrated and compelled to actively take a stand. Advances of technology and social mobilization give increasing opportunities for the people to directly express their will and call for accountability from their representatives. Against this backdrop, this paper engages in a comparative analysis of people’s movements that happened and are continuing to take place in South Korea, Sri Lanka, Venezuela and Algeria. Based on the analysis, the paper maps out the common weaknesses …

In a January 31, 2019 decision, the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR, or Court) held that Russia, the respondent state, should pay Georgia, the applicant state, 10 million euros as just satisfaction for violations committed by Russia against Georgian nationals; these violations had previously been established in the Court's main judgment in 2014 (Georgia v.

Nietzsche And The Law Of The “The Other”: The Jew In Refraction, Jeffrey Meyers Apr 2020

Nietzsche And The Law Of The “The Other”: The Jew In Refraction, Jeffrey Meyers

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review

This article asks what Nietzsche might tell us about the possibility and conditions of having knowledge of the legal other or "the Other" in law. lthough not a familiar formulation, this line of inquiry must be permitted to take shape because it goes directly to the most basic theoretical conundrum of comparative law. This conundrum lies well beyond the moribund debate over the purported "commensurability'" or "incommensurability" of differing legal "systems" or "traditions. " Instead it takes comparative lawyers to task by asking them to explain how they might know, or hope to have knowledge of legal otherness. In this …

The History Of A Mystery: The Evolution Of The Law Of Unjust Enrichment In Germany, England And China, Steve Gallagher, Lin Siyi, Lutz-Christian Wolff Apr 2020

The History Of A Mystery: The Evolution Of The Law Of Unjust Enrichment In Germany, England And China, Steve Gallagher, Lin Siyi, Lutz-Christian Wolff

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review

The law of unjust enrichment, despite being recognized in all modern jurisdictions, remains controversial due to its complexities. This article examines the historical development of unjust enrichment in Germany, England, and China, arguing that the concept's simplicity and academic influence are root causes of ongoing doctrinal and practical challenges. The analysis critiques the single principle approach—whereby any unjustified enrichment must be returned—highlighting its failure to address diverse scenarios effectively. The article concludes that this flawed foundational concept, compounded by academic ambitions, has led to persistent issues across all three jurisdictions.

The Need For Certainty And Written Form In Land Sale Contracts In China: A Legal Reform Recommendation, Wei Wen Apr 2020

The Need For Certainty And Written Form In Land Sale Contracts In China: A Legal Reform Recommendation, Wei Wen

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review

Despite the significance of land sale contracts, China's Contract Law (the supreme authority in contractual matters) fails to articulate whether written form is mandatory for land sale contracts as a prerequisite for contractual remedies. The result of this ambiguity is that urban and rural courts across China have delivered contradictory judgments on this matter, and Chinese claimants do not have clear rules or authorities to follow. This imposes unfairness on those claimants. This article examines and analyzes the uncertainty and its causes, reaching a conclusion that the solution to addressing the nationwide uncertainty is a legal reform-Contract Law should articulate …

State Intent Under International Law, Stephen Townley Apr 2020

State Intent Under International Law, Stephen Townley

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review

The question of legislative intent has long been a topic of intense scholarly focus in the United States. There has also been a recent uptick in discussion of executive branch intent with the filing of highprofile lawsuits predicated upon allegations of improper motives. However, there has been no corollary effort to unpack the concept of state intent at the international level, where it arises with respect to such varied questions as how to understand the scope of a state's consent, whether a state should be deemed to be negotiating in good faith, and whether a state has engaged in genocide. …

Terrorist Victim Or Perpetrator?: Foreign Solutions To Challenges Posed By The U.S.’S Terrorist Bars To Asylum, Stephanie Blum, Nadav Morag Apr 2020

Terrorist Victim Or Perpetrator?: Foreign Solutions To Challenges Posed By The U.S.’S Terrorist Bars To Asylum, Stephanie Blum, Nadav Morag

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review

This article analyzes the challenges presented by the U.S.'s Terrorism-Related Inadmissibility Grounds ("TRIG") for asylum applicants and looks overseas for potential solutions. TRIG is the method by which the U.S. government bars terrorists and those who materially support terrorism from obtaining asylum and related protections. TRIG, however, is overbroad and inefficient, encompassing terrorist victims who currently pose and never posed any threat to U.S. security. Specifically, TRIG does not consider duress, or the provision of trivial support, when analyzing whether applicants should be barred from asylum because of material support of terrorism. Additionally, current law defines a terrorist organization for …
