Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review (CICLR) Blog

Various concerns, such as climate change, supply issues, and bad actors with vast energy resources, have increased global interest in increasing power grid security and efficiency.

Police-Generated Evidence In Bail Hearings: Generating Criminality And Mass Pretrial Incarceration In Canada, Jillian Rogin

Dalhousie Law Journal

Systemic racism in policing impacts many aspects of the criminal legal system including the system of judicial interim release. This paper traces the ways in which reliance on police-created evidence at bail hearings might contribute to mass pretrial incarceration in Canada which is disproportionately felt by Indigenous, Black, and marginalized people. The police synopsis and police-created criminal records are state knowledge created for state purposes. This state-created evidence in fact generates race and racialization; all of the structural inequalities built into the system of policing become relied on at bail hearings through police-created evidence which contributes to mass pretrial incarceration …

Law Of Art, Law Of War: The Legacy Of The Law Of War In International Cultural Property Law, Richard G. De Schweinitz

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review (CICLR) Blog

Issues of international art law tend to center on the restitution of lost works of art to their owners across borders. Wars today engender many disputes over rightful ownership; but historically, these conflicts were decided rather simply by the law of nations. Per one Judge Croke, “all property belonging to the enemy shall be liable to confiscation”. However, one of the earliest principles of just war in the modern era was the extension of special protections to works of culture. This principle, developed in the international conflict context, evolved through a lineage of international agreements into the basis for modern …

Nfts: How Nonfungible Tokens Fit Into Preexisting Regulatory Policies Globally Analysis Of The Legal Implications, Mary Katherine Nix

The International Law Review Association Student Forum

Nonfungible tokens (NFTs) represent the latest and perhaps most controversial form of cryptocurrency. Due to their unique nature and ability to implicate multiple legal rights, it is unclear how NFTs should or can be regulated. The lack of regulatory guidance globally has caused some investors to avoid them at all costs and issuers, advisers, and purchasers of NFTS at risk of litigation. But creating a new regulatory framework for this new form of crypto could take years. As such, countries should mold NFTs into existing cryptocurrency framework.
