The View From Syria: In War On Terrorism, Humanitarian Law Takes Back Seat, Roy Gutman

Case Western Reserve Journal of International Law

"The theme of this conference is atrocity prevention, and the unstated major premise is that something has gone wrong in international life. Having reported or edited international news for half a century and focused on humanitarian law for 25 years, I will offer my reality check. Michael Scharf’s program note speaks of the world hitting a low point in the amelioration of human suffering in conflict. My observation is that he is right. In attending this conference, you are way ahead of the general public, way ahead of our political class. Humanitarian law after making broad advances at the turn …

Family Ties: The European Court Of Human Rights' Protection Of The Family And Its Impact In Future Litigation, Rebecca J. Cambron

Case Western Reserve Journal of International Law

With family as the foundation for much of modern society’s structure, the European Union included familial and parental rights when protecting individuals from unwarranted government influence through the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. The European Court of Human Rights’s recent interpretation of the protection, however, in the case of Wunderlich v. Germany demonstrates a concerning shift in the Court’s jurisprudence. This Comment analyzes the shift occurring within the Court’s jurisprudence with respect to the protection of the family and parental rights regarding education, exploring the Court’s arch away from the foundational principles behind the …

The Path Forward For The International Criminal Court: Questions Searching For Answers, Amb. Todd F. Buchwald

Case Western Reserve Journal of International Law

"In June 2018, the International Criminal Court (ICC) appeals chamber reversed what had been the court’s most significant verdict: a 2016 conviction of a former Congolese vice-president, Jean-Pierre Bemba, for crimes committed in the Central African Republic. This was significant because it was the court’s first conviction for crimes of sexual and gender-based violence and on the basis of command responsibility, and because Bemba was among the most senior-ranking officials to appear for trial at the court.2 An acquittal needs to be understood as a legitimate outcome to any justice process, but, in context, the decision touched off alarm bells …

Innovating To Restrain The Use Of The Veto In The United Nations Security Council, Amb. Christian Wenaweser, Sina Alavi

Case Western Reserve Journal of International Law

"Below we outline two innovations – one already implemented, and the other in the process of being officially presented to the UN membership – that have the potential to help restrain the [mis]use of the veto by permanent members of the Security Council. They both acknowledge the existence of the veto, and rather than aiming for its abolition they aim to bring its use more in line with the intentions of the drafters of the UN Charter."

(Code of Conduct (Security Council action on genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes) and General Assembly action when the veto is (mis-)used)

Crime As Cognitive Constraint: Facebook's Role In Myanmar's Incitement Landscape And The Promise Of International Tort Liability, Jenny Domino

Case Western Reserve Journal of International Law

"Is Facebook’s role in the spread of incitement in Myanmar criminal? In 2018, the United Nations Independent International Fact-Finding Mission on Myanmar (FFM) described Facebook’s “significant role” in the spread of incitement to discrimination and violence against Myanmar’s Rohingya Muslims.2 Although the FFM described in detail the speakers’ responsibility for the Facebook posts, the precise nature of Facebook’s responsibility in moderating (or failing to moderate) harmful content was unclear."

Disinheriting Your Children: A "Non" "Non" In France, An Accepted Use Of Testimentary Freedom In America, Eva Saulnier

Case Western Reserve Journal of International Law

Inheritance law or—as called in Europe—private law was developed in the shadow of different historical, social, cultural, and economic circumstances. Consequently, countries adopted various characteristics for the disposition of property at death. But with today’s growing globalization, the national regulations’ differences are becoming a growing issue for multinational families.

This Note examines cross-border inheritance through the lens of a current multinational inheritance battle. The late French singer Johnny Hallyday’s testamentary documents disinheriting his two eldest children and asking for Californian law to be applied to his estate is currently being challenged. While freedom of testation and the testator’s intent are …

Foreword: Atrocity Prevention: The Role Of International Law And Justice, Amb. Todd F. Buchwald, Jody M. Aremband

Case Western Reserve Journal of International Law

"The issue of atrocity prevention has taken something of a beating in the last few years, a victim perhaps of the transactional approach to security and other foreign policy issues that seem to be engulfing us. Yet this is an issue that cannot go away. Its staying power is a testament to its deep moral roots. The horrors of the Holocaust and the knowledge of the capacity of man for cruelty to his fellow man will haunt the world forever. The experience of our modern history– in Yugoslavia, Rwanda, Sudan, South Sudan, the Central African Republic and elsewhere – leave …

Codifying The Obligations Of States Relating To The Prevention Of Atrocities, Sean D. Murphy

Case Western Reserve Journal of International Law

Keynote Speech, “Codifying the Obligations of States Relating to the Prevention of Atrocities.”

..."my focus is on international obligations embedded in major multilateral treaties that address the issue of prevention, either expressly or implicitly. In doing so, I will attempt to connect the past to the present, so as to highlight six obligations of States relating to prevention that the Commission deemed essential for inclusion in its 2019 CAH Articles."
