The Future Of The International Financial System: The Emerging Cbdc Network And Its Impact On Regulation, Heng Wang, Simin Gao
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Central bank digital currency (CBDC) is a digital form of fiat currency. CBDC has the potential to be a game challenger in the international financial system, bringing increased complexities arising from technology and regulatory considerations, as well as generating greater currency competition. As more states begin exploring CBDC, the interactions between actors may lead to the emergence of a new CBDC network. What shape would the emerging CBDC network take? What would its network effects be? What would be the impact of the CBDC network on the international financial system, or the global financial network? This article explores these questions …

Privacy Nicks: How The Law Normalizes Surveillance,

Privacy Nicks: How The Law Normalizes Surveillance, Woodrow Hartzog, Evan Selinger, Johanna Gunawan
Faculty Scholarship
Privacy law is failing to protect individuals from being watched and exposed, despite stronger surveillance and data protection rules. The problem is that our rules look to social norms to set thresholds for privacy violations, but people can get used to being observed. In this article, we argue that by ignoring de minimis privacy encroachments, the law is complicit in normalizing surveillance. Privacy law helps acclimate people to being watched by ignoring smaller, more frequent, and more mundane privacy diminutions. We call these reductions “privacy nicks,” like the proverbial “thousand cuts” that lead to death.
Privacy nicks come from the …
The False Promise Of Jurisdiction Stripping,

The False Promise Of Jurisdiction Stripping, Daniel Epps, Alan M. Trammell
Scholarship@WashULaw
Jurisdiction stripping is seen as a nuclear option. Its logic is simple: by depriving federal courts of jurisdiction over some set of cases, Congress ensures those courts cannot render bad decisions. In theory, it frees up the political branches and the states to act without fear of judicial second-guessing. To its proponents, it offers the ultimate check on unelected and unaccountable judges. To critics, it poses a grave threat to the separation of powers. Both sides agree, though, that jurisdiction stripping is a powerful weapon. On this understanding, politicians, activists, and scholars throughout American history have proposed jurisdiction stripping measures …

It’S Raining Rockets: Heightening State Liability For Space Pollution, Sraavya Poonuganti
Chicago Journal of International Law
The uptick in outer space exploration activity by spacefaring nations has resulted in the increased proliferation of space debris orbiting Earth and reentering its atmosphere. The current liability regime, which was enacted as a result of the U.S.–Soviet Union space race in the 1960s and ’70s, is ill-equipped to mitigate and deter such proliferation. Without proactive measures, the space debris buildup could escalate into the Kessler Syndrome, a proposed scenario in which space exploration, and its corresponding benefits, may be rendered infeasible due to the extreme risk of high-impact space object collisions. This Comment first analyzes existing proposals for amending …

Hiding In Plain Sight: An Ilo Convention On Labor Standards In Global Supply Chains, James J. Brudney
Chicago Journal of International Law
This Article proposes a solution to the primary challenge currently confronting governments, employers, and workers under international labor law: how to promote and protect decent labor conditions in global supply chains (GSCs).
The Article begins by summarizing why existing public law and private law approaches have failed to meet this challenge over several decades. It describes the shortcomings of law and practice in developing countries as well as the weakness of corporate social responsibility (CSR), including the most ambitious version of CSR, the U.N. Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. It then analyzes the problems with recent national laws …

Discursive Constitutionalism, Ngoc Son Bui
Chicago Journal of International Law
“Constitutionalism” has been contentiously debated at national and international levels. This Article develops the concept of discursive constitutionalism, defined as the construction of constitutionalism through public discourse. It theorizes about four elements (ideas, actors, actions, and spaces) and the constructive logic of discursive constitutionalism. Public constitutionalist discourse can be shaped by the existing relations of political power. At the same time, it can constrain the political monopoly of constitutional thinking, shape the design of institutions to limit political power, and prevent the arbitrary use of political power in practice. This study provides an explanatory account of three models of discursive …

Accounting For The Selfish State: Human Rights, Reproductive Equality, And Global Regulation Of Gestational Surrogacy, Claudia Flores
Chicago Journal of International Law
Gestational surrogacy is a relatively new method of procreation made possible by advances in assisted reproductive technology (ART). In gestational surrogacy, a woman (gestational carrier) gestates a fetus that is often biologically unrelated to her on behalf of a third party. While this form of procreation has often been celebrated for allowing infertile and fertility-challenged persons to parent biological offspring, it has also prompted a series of complex human rights-related debates. Inconsistent and extreme state responses to gestational surrogacy have led to myriad tragedies: states have arrested gestational carriers, forced carriers to raise children born through the process, denied individuals …

Applying Derivative United Nations Immunity To Humanitarian Ngos, Tori Keller
Chicago Journal of International Law
United Nations (U.N.) privileges and immunities, enshrined in the Convention on Privileges and Immunities, protect U.N. personnel from legal proceedings and facilitate U.N. missions in volatile contexts. Today, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are essential providers of emergency humanitarian assistance in some of the most dangerous states. Even though some NGOs work under U.N. funding agreements, they lack the protective immunities of the U.N. This Comment assesses the bases for U.N. immunity and the similar concept of derivative sovereign immunity, whereby sovereign governments extend their immunity to quasigovernment entities and private contractors. It argues that derivative immunity from states is based on …
“Cancel Culture” And Criminal Justice,
2023
University of California, Hastings College of the Law
“Cancel Culture” And Criminal Justice, Steven Arrigg Koh
Hastings Law Journal
This Article explores the relationship between two normative systems in modern society: “cancel culture” and criminal justice. It argues that cancel culture—a ubiquitous phenomenon in contemporary life—may rectify deficiencies of over- and under-enforcement in the U.S. criminal justice system. However, the downsides of cancel culture’s structure—imprecise factfinding, potentially disproportionate sanctions leading to collateral consequences, a “thin” conception of the wrongdoer as beyond rehabilitation, and a broader cultural anxiety that “chills” certain human conduct—reflect problematic U.S. punitive impulses that characterize our era of mass incarceration. This Article thus argues that social media reform proposals obscure a deeper necessity: transcendence of blame …

The Unfulfilled Promise Of Environmental Constitutionalism, Amber Polk
Hastings Law Journal
The political push for the adoption of state-level “green amendments” in the United States has gained significant traction in just the last couple of years. Green amendments add an environmental right to a state’s constitution. Five such amendments were made in the 1970s in Pennsylvania, Montana, Hawaii, Massachusetts, and Illinois. This Article looks in depth at the case law that has developed the contours of these constitutional environmental rights in the wake of the political revival of environmental constitutionalism in the United States. I distill two lessons from this jurisprudence. First, constitutional environmental rights are interpreted by the courts as …

Mandatory Refererence To The Oecd Commentary For Tax Treaty Interpretation Purposes - Is It Necessary? A Case Study Of The New Protocol To 2002 Indonesia – The Netherlands Tax Treaty Signed On 30 July 2015, Ichwan Sukardi
Technology and Economics Law Journal
The Indonesia-Netherlands Double Taxation Agreement (“DTA”) has been renegotiated and amended several times until the latest amendment which was made in 2015 whereby a new protocol was produced. What is interesting about this new protocol is the requirement to refer to the OECD Commentary in interpreting the DTA articles that are identical and similar to OECD Model, especially in relation to the term “Beneficial Owner”. Over the last two decades, the usage of Dutch SPVs in financing structure have triggered many tax disputes between the Tax Authority in Indonesia (the Directorate General of Taxation or “DGT’) and the Indonesian taxpayer. …
