Two Snowflakes Are Alike: Assumptions Made In The Debate Over Standing Before World Trade Organization Dispute Settlement Boards, Philip M. Nichols Jan 2000

Two Snowflakes Are Alike: Assumptions Made In The Debate Over Standing Before World Trade Organization Dispute Settlement Boards, Philip M. Nichols

Fordham International Law Journal

This Essay identifies five assumptions that have worked their way into the debate on standing before the dispute settlement panels of the World Trade Organization (“WTO”). The dispute settlement process is one of the most visible — and most scrutinized — activities of the WTO. Moreover, the dispute settlement process constitutes an integral part of the international trade regime. The five assumptions discussed in this Essay are assumptions; they have neither been proven nor disproven by either side of the debate. This Essay does not empirically treat any of these assumptions, other than to demonstrate that they are assumptions. Rather, …

International Human Rights, International Humanitarian Law, And Environmental Security: Can The International Criminal Court Bridge The Gaps?, Mark A. Drumbl Jan 2000

International Human Rights, International Humanitarian Law, And Environmental Security: Can The International Criminal Court Bridge The Gaps?, Mark A. Drumbl

Scholarly Articles

The gap between international humanitarian law and environmental security should trouble international lawyers. Just as armed conflict often creates a context in which the most serious human rights abuses occur, so too, does it create a similar context for the infliction of wanton and extensive destruction to the environment. This destruction creates profound environmental insecurity. Part (II) of this Article explores the insecurities caused by the environmental consequences of armed conflict. Although the international community has shown considerable concern for the humanitarian consequences of war, it has been significantly more hesitant in accounting for war's environmental consequences. It is for …


Punishment, Postgenocide: From Guilt To Shame To Civis In Rwanda, Mark A. Drumbl Jan 2000

Punishment, Postgenocide: From Guilt To Shame To Civis In Rwanda, Mark A. Drumbl

Scholarly Articles

Following the 1994 Rwandan genocide, national and international trials set out to encourage national reconciliation, promote peace, punish perpetrators, foster a culture of human rights, and effect justice. In this Article, Professor Mark Drumbl questions the ability of these trials to achieve these goals and suggests they may in fact aggravate ethnic identity politics, thereby threatening Rwanda's long-term stability. He argues that the highly interdependent yet dualist nature of Rwandan society, together with the widespread level of participation in and victimization by the genocide, create a situation where accountability for the violence and the deterrence of future violence can be …

A Race Approach To International Law (Rail): Is There A Need For Yet Another Critique Of International Law, Ediberto Román Jan 2000

A Race Approach To International Law (Rail): Is There A Need For Yet Another Critique Of International Law, Ediberto Román

Faculty Publications

This work reviews an important shortcoming of the dominant public international paradigm and the recent methodical responses to that edifice. Specifically, this article argues that issues of race have not been significantly addressed in international law discourse. In particular, this Article notes that in the theoretical discourse some writers have discussed race, but the thrust of the discourse marginalizes the importance of race. In the practice of international law, people of color are affected but rarely recognized in policy debates. Additionally, this work attempts to explain how a discourse that positions race at the center of the discourse increases the …

Reformation Of The Ec Competition Policy On Vertical Restraints, Georg Terhorst

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

In the present article, I present the main issues surrounding the reform process, its reasoning and the result it brought to the European Community's ("EC") competition policy on vertical restraints. Furthermore, I summarize some of the reactions by other bodies of the EC and industry sectors toward this reform process. Finally, I will discuss the responses by business toward these changes in the EC rules to vertical restraints and the way enterprises will operate in the Member States of the EC.


Transit Of Straits And Archipelagic Waters By Military Aircraft, Bernard H. Oxman Jan 2000

Transit Of Straits And Archipelagic Waters By Military Aircraft, Bernard H. Oxman

Articles

The UN Convention on the Law of the Sea balances the interests of states in ways that are more refined than the classic summa divisio between the free high seas and territorial waters. The result for aviation is the preservation of freedom of overflight for civil and military aircraft seaward of the territorial sea in the exclusive economic zone as on the high seas beyond, and the right of such aircraft to transit archipelagic waters as well as straits comprised of territorial seas and internal waters. A proper understanding of the scope of these rights and their relationship to the …


Afterword: Antitrust And American Business Abroad Revisited, David J. Gerber Jan 2000

Afterword: Antitrust And American Business Abroad Revisited, David J. Gerber

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Kingman Brewster's exceptionally influential Antitrust and American Business Abroad (1958) came to symbolize an era in antitrust law and in the relationship of U.S. business to international economic activity. It gave conceptual contours to a fundamental problem that had been only dimly perceived before -- namely, the need to define the reach of U.S. antitrust law.' In a masterful and much expanded third edition of the book, Professor Spencer Waller marks the transition to a new, very different, and far more complex era in antitrust law and in its significance for international business. We have only begun to recognize and …
