Collective Humanitarian Intervention, Fernando R. Tesón Jan 1996

Collective Humanitarian Intervention, Fernando R. Tesón

Scholarly Publications

Until very recently, those who favored the legitimacy of humanitarian intervention were regarded either as hopeless idealists, or worse still, as trigger-happy "moral imperialists." Yet, the doctrine of humanitarian intervention has experienced a dramatic revival with the end of the Cold War. The realignment of global political forces and the awareness of the crucial link between human rights and peace have produced a significant change of opinion among governments and writers on the subject. While opinion is still sharply divided on the issue of unilateral humanitarian intervention, most international actors and observers are rallying behind the idea that the United …

Gaps In Gender-Based Violence Jurisprudence Of International And Hybrid Criminal Courts: Can Human Rights Law Help, Susana Sacouto Jan 1996

Gaps In Gender-Based Violence Jurisprudence Of International And Hybrid Criminal Courts: Can Human Rights Law Help, Susana Sacouto

Contributions to Books

Great progress has been made over the last two decades in the investigation and prosecution of sexual and gender-based violence, in particular by the ad-hoc International Criminal Tribunals for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) and Rwanda (ICTR). Yet the practice and jurisprudence of these tribunals makes clear that significant challenges remain, including inconsistency in how to understand – and therefore how to prove and adequately link to higher level perpetrators – crimes of sexual violence committed in the context of conflict, mass violence or repression. This chapter examines these challenges and explores whether human rights law, particularly the requirement that access …


The World Bank, The Imf, And Human Rights, Daniel D. Bradlow Jan 1996

The World Bank, The Imf, And Human Rights, Daniel D. Bradlow

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

This paper explores the type of human rights obligations of the World Bank and the IMF. It argues that their human rights obligations can be divided into two sets of issues. First is operational issues, which relate to both the promotion and protection of human rights. Second is institutional issues, which deal with the internal rules and procedures of the World Bank and the IMF. The paper concludes that these organizations need to develop a coherent and explicit human rights policy.


Rediscovering Francis Lieber: An Afterword And Introduction, Michael E. Herz Apr 1995

Rediscovering Francis Lieber: An Afterword And Introduction, Michael E. Herz

Cardozo Law Review

In our media age, more and more people are famous just for being famous, rather than for any particular achievement, notorious or otherwise. We spend a good deal of time transfixed by "celebrities" known for no obvious qualities other than fame itself. Francis Lieber, once this country's most respected law professor, of whom it was written in 1873 that "his fame will be secure in the lap of history," presents the opposite case: he is forgotten despite great accomplishment. At best, one might say he is famous for being forgotten. His name comes up, but almost every modem reference to …

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

The Women in the Law Project of the International Human Rights Law Group (Law Group) sponsored a delegation to the former Yugoslavia from February 14 to 22, 1993. The delegation, which was also endorsed by the Bar Association of San Francisco, had two principal objectives.

This part of the delegation's activities, undertaken in consultation with the United Nations Commission of Experts,' sought to enhance the …

A Memorial For Bosnia: Framework Of Legal Arguments Concerning The Lawfulness Of The Maintenance Of The United Nations Security Council's Arms Embargo On Bosnia And Herzegovina, Craig Scott, Abid Qureshi, Jasminka Kalajdzic, Francis Chang, Paul Michell, Peter Copeland

Michigan Journal of International Law

This Memorial seeks to present a framework of legal arguments with respect to the validity and legal effects of an arms embargo imposed by United Nations Security Council Resolution 713 in September 1991 on the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Yugoslavia), before its dissolution, and since treated as being in force with respect to the new states that have succeeded Yugoslavia. More particularly, the Memorial addresses the legality of maintaining (or, at least, having maintained during the crucial time period) the arms embargo in force, either de jure or de facto, against the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Bosnia) …

A Typology Of Transjudicial Communication, Anne-Marie Slaughter Jan 1994

A Typology Of Transjudicial Communication, Anne-Marie Slaughter

University of Richmond Law Review

Courts are talking to one another all over the world. Mary Ann Glendon describes a "brisk international traffic in ideas about rights," conducted by judges. "In Europe generally," she adds, "and in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand, national law is increasingly caught up in a process of cross-fertilization among legal systems."


Command Responsibility In The Former Yugoslavia: The Chances For Successful Prosecution, Christopher N. Crowe Jan 1994

Command Responsibility In The Former Yugoslavia: The Chances For Successful Prosecution, Christopher N. Crowe

University of Richmond Law Review

On 22 February 1993, the United Nations Security Council passed Resolution 808 calling for the establishment of an international tribunal for the prosecution of persons responsible for "serious violations of international humanitarian law committed in the territory of former Yugoslavia." The resolution also asked the Secretary-General to submit to the Security Council for consideration a report on aspects of the tribunal considering "suggestions put forward in this regard by Member states." In May, Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali issued his report and proposed the Statute of the International Tribunal ("Statute"), designed to govern the tribunals establishment and operation.

Deportation And Transfer Of Civilians In Time Of War, Jean-Marie Henckaerts Oct 1993

Deportation And Transfer Of Civilians In Time Of War, Jean-Marie Henckaerts

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

In this Article, the Author discusses the international law prohibiting the deportation and transfer of civilians during times of war. The Author first focuses on Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, describing its genesis and its character as customary international law. The Author examines several specific instances of illegal deportations in Kuwait, the former Yugoslavia, and the Israeli-occupied territories, and discusses the application of Geneva IV to these situations. He concludes that more should be done to enforce international law prohibiting the transfer of civilians during times of war and to punish states for engaging in massive deportation.
