The Permissibility Of Affirmative Action In Higher Education Under Human Rights Law, Jordan J. Paust
The Permissibility Of Affirmative Action In Higher Education Under Human Rights Law, Jordan J. Paust
City University of New York Law Review
International human rights are the supreme law of the land, and thus are a legitimate and valuable source of the permissibility of affirmative action. This source is not only found in federal law relevant to decision making at federal and state levels, but is also found in federal policy which is relevant to the issue of federal preemption. Treaty-based permissibility does not however guarantee that particular measures of affirmative action will survive challenges under other constitutional provisions, but it is relevant to an evolving theory of constitutional rights. Indeed, treaty-based permissibility of affirmative action, coupled with other relevant sources, provide …
Indian Nations And The Human Right To An Independent Judiciary, Tom Tso
Indian Nations And The Human Right To An Independent Judiciary, Tom Tso
City University of New York Law Review
I would like to approach the topic of Indian rights in the context of international law from a new perspective. Currently, there is uncertainty as to whether the proposed United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples will be adopted. Given that the Declaration is stalled in Geneva, and given the resistance of states with large indigenous populations to the notion that indigenous peoples should have rights under international law, who knows when, or if, the Declaration will be adopted. We cannot wait. This article will highlight United States and Indian-nation history in the development of Indian-nation law, and …

Uses And Misuses Of Comparative Law In International Human Rights: Some Reflections On The Jurisprudence Of The European Court Of Human Rights, Paolo G. Carozza
Journal Articles
Virtually all of Mary Ann Glendon's work can be seen as part of a persistent effort to open some windows in the edifice of American law and allow cross-currents of foreign experience to blow fresh insight into the rooms of our republic. In her critique of contemporary strains of rights discourse in the United States, she makes the case against American insularity quite directly: "In closing our own eyes and ears to the development of rights ideas elsewhere, our most grievous loss is ... the kind of assistance ... that can be gained from observing the successes and failures of …
Law Of Nations In Cyberspace: Fashioning A Cause Of Action For The Supression Of Human Rights Reports On The Internet , Thomas Cochrane
Law Of Nations In Cyberspace: Fashioning A Cause Of Action For The Supression Of Human Rights Reports On The Internet , Thomas Cochrane
Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review
For nearly two decades, two U.S. statutes have provided redress to victims of human rights abuses: the Alien Tort Statute and the Torture Victim Protection Act. A handful of plaintiffs have recovered under these laws against foreign perpetrators of a narrow range of human rights violations. The growth and proliferation of communications technology raises important questions about how these statutes will be used in the future. Human rights activists have discovered that they can instantly communicate over the Internet with supporters and news media anywhere in the world. Repressive regimes have responded by attempting to restrict such communications. Could cutting …
A Proposal To The Hanodaganyas To Decolonize Federal Indian Control Law, Robert B. Porter
A Proposal To The Hanodaganyas To Decolonize Federal Indian Control Law, Robert B. Porter
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
In this Article, cast in the form of a letter to President William Jefferson Clinton, Professor Porter argues for the decolonization of federal Indian control law. After detailing the religious and colonialist roots of early Supreme Court decisions dealing with the Indian nations and giving an overview of the evolution of federal Indian policy, Professor Porter argues for the decolonization of federal Indian control law on several grounds: 1. the world community has rejected colonialism policies; 2. federal Indian control law denies basic human rights of self-determination; 3. colonization has partially succeeded in destroying the Indian nations; and 4. decolonization …
