Indigenous Recognition In International Law: Theoretical Observations, Patrick Macklem

Michigan Journal of International Law

This Essay addresses this question in the context of the evolving status of indigenous peoples in international law. International instruments vest rights in indigenous peoples, and establish indigenous peoples as international legal actors to whom States and other international legal actors owe legal duties and obligations. These developments began between the First and Second World Wars, when the International Labour Organization (ILO) began to supervise indigenous working conditions in colonies. They continued after the Second World War with ILO Conventions No. 107 and 169, which vested rights in indigenous populations located in States that are a party to their terms. …

Indigenous Sovereignty: A Reassessment In Light Of The Un Declaration On The Rights Of Indigenous Peoples, Siegfried Wiessner

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

This Article explores the concept of "indigenous sovereignty" against the backdrop of the resurgence of indigenous peoples as actors in international and domestic law and policy. The Author starts with the traditional Western notion of sovereignty and its dynamization via the principle of self-determination, cabined by the exclusionary concepts of "terra nullius" and "uti possidetis." The next Part delineates the global indigenous renascence occurring since the 1970s and the resulting state practice that has led to treaties and to the development of customary international law in the field. The Article proceeds to analyze the scope and legal effect of the …

Agenda: The Climate Of Environmental Justice: Taking Stock, University Of Colorado Boulder. School Of Law

The Climate of Environmental Justice: Taking Stock (March 16-17)

On March 16-17, The Climate of Environmental Justice: Taking Stock conference gathered 125 academics and practitioners from around the country to consider the pressing issues facing low-income and/or communities of color that continue to be subjected to a disproportionate share of environmental maladies.

"Some people are more equal than others when it comes to bracing ourselves for the impacts of climate change," said conference organizer Professor Maxine Burkett. "Whether it's because poor folks lived in the lowest areas of New Orleans when Katrina floodwaters rushed in, or are less able to afford the cooling bill during increasingly frequent heat waves, …

Dissonant Harmonization: Limitations On "Cash N' Carry" Creativity, 70 Alb. L. Rev. 1163 (2007), Doris E. Long

UIC Law Open Access Faculty Scholarship

Even though creativity lies at the heart of present copyright laws, the impulse to create-or more precisely what triggers such creativity-remains largely unexamined. Coinciding with the digital demand for access to information, new standards for "cash 'n' carry" creativity are being urged with little regard to what level of authorial3 control may be required to ensure continued enrichment of the public domain through the creation of vibrant new works. Scientific, psychological, and sociological studies indicate that "cash 'n' carry" creativity fails to implement the critical triggering mechanisms for the creative impulse. Moreover, such "cash 'n' carry" attitudes toward authors' rights …

A Penny For Your Thoughts: Private And Collective Contracting For Traditional Medicinal Knowledge Modeled On Bioprospecting Contracts In Costa Rica, Katie Bates

Georgia Law Review

For decades, pharmaceutical companies have prospected biologically diverse developing countries for plants and molecules that may form the foundations of groundbreaking medicines. In many cases, native populations have aided researchers by directing them to the plants used in their traditional medicines. Only recently, however, have native peoples pushed for compensation for this valuable contribution. The governments of developing countries, too, have begun to assert legal and physical control over their natural resources, making access to these resources by pharmaceutical companies more difficult and costly. Simultaneously, scientific developments have made drug discovery through alternative methods more feasible. Despite these changes, it …
