Sovereign Debt Denunciation A Nd Unilateral Insolvency Under International Law: When Is It Lawful?, Ilias Bantekas 2023 UC Law SF

Sovereign Debt Denunciation A Nd Unilateral Insolvency Under International Law: When Is It Lawful?, Ilias Bantekas

UC Law SF International Law Review

Central to our understanding of sovereignty should be the competence of states to determine how their debts are restructured or denounced when the debts considered are odious or illegal. Sovereignty, in this sense, is tantamount to self-determination and the corresponding obligations of states that are absent on the part of creditors when entering into a debt agreement or restructuring process. States owe duties under international law to their own people. Hence, the sanctity of international agreements, whether treaties or contracts, entered by states cannot override these compelling and humancentered state obligations. Otherwise, such agreements would be valued more than human …


Extraterritorial Application Of Antitrust Law, International Comity, And Scope Of Remedies: Considering The Nature Of The Product And Service In Addition To The Effect In The Relevant Market, ANNIE SOO YEON AHN 2023 UC Law SF

Extraterritorial Application Of Antitrust Law, International Comity, And Scope Of Remedies: Considering The Nature Of The Product And Service In Addition To The Effect In The Relevant Market, Annie Soo Yeon Ahn

UC Law SF International Law Review

This Article proposes that the nature of the product and service, including the importance to the country’s industry and consumers and the level of government regulation, should be closely considered for analyzing international comity and deciding the scope of remedies in antitrust cases. These factors should be considered in addition to the effect in the relevant market when determining whether there is an extraterritorial application of antitrust law under the Foreign Trade Antitrust Improvements Act. Specifically, the nature of the product and service, including the importance to the country’s industry and consumers and the level of government regulation, should be …

Property And Prosperity, A Demythifying Story, Xiaoqian Hu 2023 St. John's University School of Law

Property And Prosperity, A Demythifying Story, Xiaoqian Hu

St. John's Law Review

(Excerpt)

Economic development is fundamentally a property law story. Prominent thinkers―from Adam Smith and Jeremy Bentham, to Douglass North and Richard Posner―tell us that protection of private property rights is essential for economic growth and wealth accumulation. Clear and freely alienable property rights reduce transaction costs and allow private bargaining to produce efficient results. Property rights allow owners to internalize the costs and benefits of their own behavior, reduce production costs, and encourage innovation. Secure property rights protect owners from arbitrary confiscation by the government, foster owner expectations, and facilitate investment, trade, and the development of financial markets. The idea …


The Use Of Arbitration Clauses By Social Media Websites: A Critique, Kavya Jha, Ananya Singh 2023 Pepperdine University

The Use Of Arbitration Clauses By Social Media Websites: A Critique, Kavya Jha, Ananya Singh

Pepperdine Dispute Resolution Law Journal

The arbitration clauses contained in the Terms of Services (ToS) of most social media websites mandate arbitration and the waiver of class arbitration.1 In light of this reality, this article seeks to analyze the legal position with respect to mandatory arbitration and class arbitration waiver in the United States, India, and European Union (EU). It compares and juxtaposes the respective positions in these three jurisdictions to find that whereas the United States has been pro-arbitration to the extent of being detrimental to consumer interest, India has adopted an overly protectionist approach, while the EU has adopted an effective model to …

Romano Named A Rumsfeld Graduate Fellow, James Owsley Boyd

Keep Up With the Latest News from the Law School (blog)

James Romano’s interests are out of this world. The 2L at the Indiana University Maurer School of Law is intrigued by the futuristic sounding concept of space law, but is quick to note that there’s nothing futuristic about it.

“More private companies are rapidly entering space,” Romano said, “and I’m deeply interested in the question of ‘What does the future of space look like?’”

While Romano’s focus may be directed upward, his trajectory on Earth is quickly ascending.

Romano is one of 14 scholars selected as a Rumsfeld Foundation Graduate Fellow for 2023-24. The fellowships, named in honor of the …

Proportionality V. Categorization: The Issue Of Judicial Balancing Of Rights, Akram Mohamed 2023 American University in Cairo

Proportionality V. Categorization: The Issue Of Judicial Balancing Of Rights, Akram Mohamed

Theses and Dissertations

The fact that there is a constant conflict between individual rights and state or social interests has historically provoked the question of how to balance or harmonize such conflicting interests? On what basis shall the legislator or the judge decide in favor of this or that right in his legislation or judgement? Where shall we, for example, draw the line between the right to freedom of expression and the right to protect one’s honor and reputation? How could the legislator find the compromise between the state duty to protect fetus life and its obligation not to interfere with woman’s right …
