Protection Of Internally Displaced Persons In Internal Conflicts, Luke T. Lee Jan 1997

Protection Of Internally Displaced Persons In Internal Conflicts, Luke T. Lee

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

There are some thirty million internally displaced persons (IDPs) today as compared to fifteen million refugees. The root causes generating refugees and IDPs are essentially the same: armed conflicts and human rights abuses. While refugees are protected by a number of international treaties and organizations, and are enjoying comparative safety in countries of asylum or resettlement, IDPs are not - supposedly on the ground that since IDPs are within their own country, their government should be responsible for their protection.

Foreign Policy Interests Of Ukraine And Problems Of European Security, Anatoliy M. Zlenko Jan 1997

Foreign Policy Interests Of Ukraine And Problems Of European Security, Anatoliy M. Zlenko

Fordham International Law Journal

This Essay touches upon only the most sensitive problems of ensuring Ukraine's foreign policy and national security interests in the new geopolitical environment on the European continent. Obviously, the spectrum of issues related to the subject of this Essay is much more complex and has especially complex solutions. The European component of Ukraine's foreign policy, while extremely important, is not a substitute for Ukraine's other foreign and domestic policy measures regarding the strengthening of national security, the successful implementation of socio-economic reforms, and the building of a market oriented democratic model of national development.

The Effects Of Telecommunications On Business, Richard Susskind

Fordham International Law Journal

Speech given at Session 2: World Communication: Where is Technology Leading Us? In many ways it does not make much sense if, say, you are setting up a business to go to one source for your legal guidance, another source for your accounting guidance, and another source for your financial advice. It will all come together, and lawyers may indeed be the people who bring that together into multidisciplinary services, bringing together the information that people require in their real-world circumstances. We will no longer package or present our guidance in the traditional legal categories, but we will aim them …
