The Persistent Nation State And The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, Mark L. Movsesian Dec 1996

The Persistent Nation State And The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, Mark L. Movsesian

Cardozo Law Review

One hears a great deal these days about the decline of the nation state. The concept of a sovereign country whose inhabitants share a common ancestry or culture is said to be obsolescent, if not already obsolete. Several factors, apparently, are responsible: the creation of supranational institutions like the European Union and the World Trade Organization; the growing influence of nongovernmental organizations; the emergence of a new global economy; and the formation of a worldwide consumer culture, to name just a few. The law, it is argued, must adapt.

The Canadian Charter And Public International Law: Redefining The State's Power To Deport Aliens, Daniela Bassan Jul 1996

The Canadian Charter And Public International Law: Redefining The State's Power To Deport Aliens, Daniela Bassan

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

This article considers the relationship between international and domestic law in deportation proceedings. The argument is made that, generally, Canadian law should be interpreted consistently with Canada's obligations at international law, as reflected in conventions and custom. More specifically, the article proposes that Canada's obligation at international law to protect the family and the child be recognized in Canadian law as one of the principles of fundamental justice under section 7 of the Charter. The protection of the family is engaged by the deportation of domiciled aliens because, by definition, these deportees have been in Canada for a long period …

The Moral Economy Of The Purchase Of Freedom: Ethical Lessons From The Slave Narratives, Lea Vandervelde May 1996

The Moral Economy Of The Purchase Of Freedom: Ethical Lessons From The Slave Narratives, Lea Vandervelde

Cardozo Law Review

In his contribution to this symposium, Richard Weisberg tells us a subtle story of what he calls "twin hermeneutics." I will use one of these-"the hermeneutic of acceptance"-to launch my own discussion on the subject of ethical dilemmas. By this term, "the hermeneutic of acceptance," Weisberg means the gradual acceptance by French lawyers of the scheme of racial exclusion newly created by Vichy laws. He traces the digression in legal arguments made by French lawyers during the four years of Vichy rule. French lawyers loaned their prestige to these new laws by means which placed their legal arguments on a …

Federal Courts And World Civil Society, Gordon A. Christenson Jan 1996

Federal Courts And World Civil Society, Gordon A. Christenson

Faculty Articles and Other Publications

This article proposes that in all international civil litigation federal judges should use international and foreign law pragmatically as an aid to decisions which further the substantive values of "world civil society." These values are similar to those of civil society in a federal republic with an elaborate bill of rights - to preserve voluntary associations of human dignity and enterprise whose spirit transcends the public order of sovereign states.
