The Case For An International Solution To The Restitution Of Cultural Property: Morality, Legality And Righting Western Wrongs, Ariana Catarisano Dec 2021

The Case For An International Solution To The Restitution Of Cultural Property: Morality, Legality And Righting Western Wrongs, Ariana Catarisano

Brooklyn Journal of International Law

In 2020, the conversation surrounding the return of cultural property acquired during the colonial era was given new life after the world watched as Black Lives Matter activists exposed systemic racial injustice in the United States. Thousands of objects currently sit in western museums under the guise of sharing these cultures and civilizations with the world, but this brings little comfort to communities suffering the genocidal consequences of colonialism. As formerly colonized nations battle the western world for the return of their cultural property, success is often dictated by a combination of power, money, and the ability to turn the …

Heaven Or Earth: The Hagia Sophia Re-Conversion, Turkish And International Law, And The Special Case Of Universal Religious Sites, Michael Goodyear Jan 2021

Heaven Or Earth: The Hagia Sophia Re-Conversion, Turkish And International Law, And The Special Case Of Universal Religious Sites, Michael Goodyear

Articles & Chapters

The Hagia Sophia has stood as one of the greatest religious buildings in the world for nearly 1,500 years. During this time, the structure was a church and then a mosque, before finally becoming a museum in 1934. But in July 2020, the Turkish president, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, re-converted the Hagia Sophia to a mosque following a ruling by the Turkish Council of State. The re-conversion was received with outrage across much of the world, but whether the decision was legal poses a much more difficult question.

This article analyzes Turkish domestic law and international law to conclude that there …

Constitutive Choices: Section 230 And First Amendment Values Versus Fosta And President Trump's Executive Order, Scott Memmel, Christopher Terry Jan 2021

Constitutive Choices: Section 230 And First Amendment Values Versus Fosta And President Trump's Executive Order, Scott Memmel, Christopher Terry

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

In 2018, the Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA) produced the first category of speech not provided immunity by Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. This first cut against Section 230 was followed by President Donald Trump's May 2020 executive order aimed at limiting the legal protections for social media companies. Both of these actions represent a new battle over old ideas about protecting expression. This Article uses Paul Starr's "Constitutive Choices" model to suggest that Section 230 represents a legacy of laws and regulations designed to foster free speech and access to information. …

Enough Is As Good As A Feast, Noah C. Chauvin Oct 2020

Enough Is As Good As A Feast, Noah C. Chauvin

Seattle University Law Review

Ipse Dixit, the podcast on legal scholarship, provides a valuable service to the legal community and particularly to the legal academy. The podcast’s hosts skillfully interview guests about their legal and law-related scholarship, helping those guests communicate their ideas clearly and concisely. In this review essay, I argue that Ipse Dixit has made a major contribution to legal scholarship by demonstrating in its interview episodes that law review articles are neither the only nor the best way of communicating scholarly ideas. This contribution should be considered “scholarship,” because one of the primary goals of scholarship is to communicate new ideas.

Blockchain, Disintermediation And The Future Of The Legal Professions, Paola Heudebert, Claire Leveneur Oct 2020

Blockchain, Disintermediation And The Future Of The Legal Professions, Paola Heudebert, Claire Leveneur

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review

Will the 2020s herald the death warrant of the legal professions? If we listen to blockchain technology's most devout advocates, the answer is a resounding yes. Blockchain is often proclaimed as the ultimate tool for allowing unrestrained exchanges between contracting parties with no preexisting relationships, thus suppressing the need for intermediaries. In other words, blockchain could be a "trust machine," which could open up the possibility of conducting transactions in full confidence, without the risk of nonperformance or misguidance. However, it is utopian idealism to assume that blockchain technology could enable pure and total disintermediation. All trusted third parties cannot …

Should They Stay, Or Should They Go? Statue Politics In Shifting Societies: The Permissibility Of Peacetime Removal, Alteration And Destruction Of Problematic Political Monuments In The United States, Adrienne Liebenberg Nel Oct 2020

Should They Stay, Or Should They Go? Statue Politics In Shifting Societies: The Permissibility Of Peacetime Removal, Alteration And Destruction Of Problematic Political Monuments In The United States, Adrienne Liebenberg Nel

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review

The note argues that Confederate monuments in the U.S. are often protected by outdated preservationist laws that hinder efforts to remove or alter them, despite their association with systemic racism and oppression. It advocates for legal reform to allow local governments to address these problematic symbols, drawing on international examples and emphasizing the need for a balanced approach that respects history while promoting inclusivity.

Indecency Regulation Of The Fcc And Censorship Law In Republic Korea: Comparison And Contrasts, Min-Soo "Minee" Roh Jul 2019

Indecency Regulation Of The Fcc And Censorship Law In Republic Korea: Comparison And Contrasts, Min-Soo "Minee" Roh

Upper Level Writing Requirement Research Papers

Regulating music on radio or television is not a straightforward process, as the music is comprised of lyrics of words. On top of the lyrics, any music performance has an additional layer of choreography and dress code. If any individual elements or combined elements is obscene or indecent, the government attempts to regulate broadcasting both music and performance. This leads to regulating general speech on communications and it requires this paper to look into regulation of broadcasting in general and specific examples of music broadcasting regulation on radio and television, particularly, in the United States (“States”) and in Republic of …

A Third Way Of Thinking About Cultural Property, Lucas Lixinski Jul 2019

A Third Way Of Thinking About Cultural Property, Lucas Lixinski

Brooklyn Journal of International Law

The article argues that the dichotomy between nationalism and internationalism with respect to cultural property, while formative, has outlived its utility, and in many respects compromised the viability of the public good it aims to safeguard. Focused on the example of cultural property in international law, this article argues for more community-centric forms of governance, beyond the interests of states and an undefined “international.” It extrapolates the lessons from cultural property to other forms of resource governance in international law.

“Why Did Constantinople Get The Works? That’S Nobody’S Business But The Turks.” A New Approach To Cultural Property Claims And Geographic Renaming Under The 1970 Unesco Convention, Kasey Theresa Mahoney Jul 2019

“Why Did Constantinople Get The Works? That’S Nobody’S Business But The Turks.” A New Approach To Cultural Property Claims And Geographic Renaming Under The 1970 Unesco Convention, Kasey Theresa Mahoney

Brooklyn Journal of International Law

The landscape of cultural property and cultural heritage discourse is continually evolving, and the traditional means of regulating disputes must not only be adapted to the current climate but proactively address foreseeable future concerns. This Note explores the Republic of Turkey’s increasing litigiousness with regard to its reparation claims and, further, considers the notion of culture as geographic boundaries transform over the course of time. This Note will analyze the leading international cultural property treaty, the 1970 UNESCO Convention, and recommend UNESCO adopt two mandates to curb the chilling effect current litigation has had on the preservation and dissemination of …

The Limitations Of Information: Rethinking Soft Paternalistic Interventions In Copyright Law, Yifat Nahmias Jan 2019

The Limitations Of Information: Rethinking Soft Paternalistic Interventions In Copyright Law, Yifat Nahmias

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

Authors and intermediaries seldom enjoy equal bargaining power. This disparity-as well as information asymmetries-has been claimed to significantly undermine authors' ability to capture a fair share of the wealth generated from their creative efforts and contributions, thereby possibly reducing their incentive to create expressive works and compromising the myriad other benefits that copyright protection is meant to provide. To address this problem, legislatures have adopted soft paternalistic interventions designed to improve authors' choices without applying a hard-handed approach. Such interventions benevolently push the author away from risk or encourage her to make decisions that the legislator perceives to be in …

America's Past-Time And The Art Of Diplomacy, Alyson St. Pierre Jul 2018

America's Past-Time And The Art Of Diplomacy, Alyson St. Pierre

Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies

As organizations and corporations construct an international reach, they become influential actors in foreign relations between sovereign countries. Particularly, while Major League Baseball continues to recruit players and build a large fan base across the globe, it increases its ability to facilitate civil relations between the United States and other nations. An exploration of how professional baseball provides a useful platform to improve diplomatic relations between the United States and Cuba best exemplifies how the League can promote change. Although the United States and Cuba have had a rather tumultuous relationship in recent history, a coordinated effort to improve the …

Marching To The Beat Of The Eu's Drum: Refining The Collective Management Of Music Rights In The United States To Facilitate The Growth Of Interactive Streaming, Gary W. Hunt Iii Jul 2018

Marching To The Beat Of The Eu's Drum: Refining The Collective Management Of Music Rights In The United States To Facilitate The Growth Of Interactive Streaming, Gary W. Hunt Iii

Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies

In the digital era, interactive streaming is now the preferred method for music consumers to access their favorite albums and songs. The traditional copyright system used to administer music rights and royalties has not evolved accordingly, which not only impedes progress by music platform innovators, but also frustrates artist, labels, and composers who are unable to reap the benefits of their music rights. This Note examines the complex process interactive streaming services undergo to obtain the rights necessary to stream music through their platforms, which involves a discussion of collective rights organizations. This Note then argues that the European Directive …

Take Me Out Of The Ballgame, Take Me Out To The Free Market: An Analysis Of Midterm Contract Renegotiation In Major League Baseball, Aaron Bretter Apr 2018

Take Me Out Of The Ballgame, Take Me Out To The Free Market: An Analysis Of Midterm Contract Renegotiation In Major League Baseball, Aaron Bretter

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review

The note argues that mid-term contract renegotiations in Major League Baseball (MLB) should be permitted under specific legal doctrines, such as efficient breach, changed circumstances, and duress. It advocates for a more dynamic and equitable system where player compensation aligns with current performance, balancing fairness for players and practical considerations for teams. While the theory of efficient breach is intriguing, the doctrine of changed circumstances is posited as the most viable legal remedy for renegotiation, particularly when a player's performance significantly exceeds initial expectations.
