Urban Despair And Nietzsche's "Eternal Return:" From The Municipal Rhetoric Of Economic Justice To The International Law Of Economic Rights, Barbara Stark Jan 1995

Urban Despair And Nietzsche's "Eternal Return:" From The Municipal Rhetoric Of Economic Justice To The International Law Of Economic Rights, Barbara Stark

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

Urban poverty has had a devastating impact, especially on African Americans in the United States, who have been ill-served by the rhetoric of opportunity. In this Article, the author argues that economic rights must be recognized as rights if the urban poor are even to dream of economic justice. The author uses the writings of German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche to explain how the past can be reclaimed. Urban poverty must be understood in an historical context. Limiting the inquiry to a domestic historical context not only blinds people to the relationship between domestic and international poverty, and domestic and international …


Patrimonicide: The International Economic Crime Of Indigenous Spoliation, Ndiva Kofele-Kale Jan 1995

Patrimonicide: The International Economic Crime Of Indigenous Spoliation, Ndiva Kofele-Kale

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

In the past two decades, the organized and systematic theft of a state's wealth and resources by its leaders has reached unprecedented levels in developing and less-developed states. Unlike previous acts of embezzlement by political leaders, this new wave of corruption-referred to as indigenous spoliation--involves billions of dollars and causes widespread social and economic devastation. This Article defines indigenous spoliation and presents some examples of this practice. The author describes the inadequacy of domestic law in dealing with the problem and suggests that international law should provide a remedy. Next, the author proposes a framework for holding persons involved in …

Women, Law, And Inequality: Rethinking International Human Rights, Mary Elizabeth Bartholomew, Drucilla Cornell

Cardozo Law Review

In 1984, Robin Morgan posed this remarkable question in her historic book Sisterhood is Global. The Feminist Legal Resource Center remains but an unrealized goal of the international feminist legal community. Such a center could benefit women, especially women in the law, seeking to obtain access to information about trends and movements worldwide in the struggle to expand the rights of women. Beginning for the most part with the aftermath of World War II, when individuals became subjects of international law with the creation and proliferation of human rights law, lawyers and others concerned with the promotion of good government …

Nationalism And The Right To Self-Determination: The Arab-Israeli Conflict, Malvina Halberstam Apr 1994

Nationalism And The Right To Self-Determination: The Arab-Israeli Conflict, Malvina Halberstam

Articles

Self-determination is a slogan that has captured the imagination of people throughout the world. Numerous U.N. General Assembly resolutions have exalted self-determination, often above the fundamental rights specifically provided for in the U.N. Charter. Notwithstanding these resolutions, in practice, self-determination generally has been applied only to the dismemberment of colonial empires. Its universal application is neither possible nor desirable.

In the Arab-Israeli conflict, self-determination was never truly the issue. The conflict has been deliberately transformed into a claim for self-determination as a political tactic designed to gain the support of third world countries in the United Nations. The issues in …
