A Qualified Defense Of Military Commissions And United States Policy On Detainees At Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, Kenneth Anderson Jan 2002

A Qualified Defense Of Military Commissions And United States Policy On Detainees At Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, Kenneth Anderson

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

This article, published in a special post 9-11 issue of the Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy, offers a defense of the view that terrorists such as Osama Bin Laden should be tried, if captured, outside of regular US civilian courts and in some form of military commission. The article argues that terrorists should be seen as criminals as well as enemies of the United States. Criminals who are simply deviants from the domestic social order are properly dealt with within the constitutionally constituted civilian court structure. Enemies who are not also criminals - legal combatants - are properly …

The World Commission On Dams' Contribution To The Broader Debate On Development Decision-Making, Daniel D. Bradlow Jan 2002

The World Commission On Dams' Contribution To The Broader Debate On Development Decision-Making, Daniel D. Bradlow

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

In this context, 'development decision-making' means the way in which individuals, groups and institutions decide to adopt and then implement policies, programs, and projects that affect the evolution of their own and/or other's social and physical environments. …


Coercive Appeasement: The Flawed International Response To The Serbian Rogue Regime, Paul Williams, Karina Waller Jan 2002

Coercive Appeasement: The Flawed International Response To The Serbian Rogue Regime, Paul Williams, Karina Waller

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

In April 1987, Slobodan Milosevic addressed a crowd of Kosovo Serbs outside the Kosovo parliamentary building who had gathered to protest the treatment of the Serb minority by the Kosovar Albanians. Milosevic proclaimed to the crowd that “[n]obody has the right to beat Serbs.” With this simple phrase, Milosevic began a long campaign characterized by the use of ethno-nationalism and ethnic aggression to accomplish his objective of a mono-ethnic greater Serbia. During the course of his war of ethnic aggression, Milosevic was predictably aided in his efforts by radical Serbian intellectuals, nationalist paramilitary organizations, the Yugoslav National Army (JNA), Croatian …
