Nationality And Naturalizations In International Sports Law: Sports Federations As Gatekeepers, Ilias Bantekas

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review

The institutional rules of International Sports Federations ("IFs") and the International Olympic Committee ("IOC") concerning nationality and its transfer therein are regulated by the Nottebohm safeguard, which requires the conferral of nationality under domestic laws to be consistent with international law for the conferral to be valid in the international legal sphere. The international sporting arenas qualify as international legal space, but the compatibility of naturalization laws with this legal space is regulated and enforced not by states, but by non-state entities, namely IFs and the IOC. These institutional rules possess a normative character because the pertinent stakeholders consent to …

Catch Me If You Can Claim Copyright Infringement: How Copyright Law Unevenly Protects Novice Scriptwriters, Alexander Cole Dibucci

Global Business Law Review

In the realm of creative endeavors, novice scriptwriters often find themselves in a precarious position, highly susceptible to having their original work exploited for profit by formidable players in the industry, drawing a parallel to the timeless tale of David versus Goliath. In these all-too common scenarios, the multi-million-dollar film agencies that, reminiscent of Goliath, appropriate the creative fruits of amateurs striving to establish their names in the field.

Today, MLB remains the only sports league with an antitrust exemption, despite legal challenges and inquiries, especially regarding its impact on the recently unionized Minor League Baseball players in 2022. Issues related to the exemption arise from the history of poor conditions for Minor League Baseball players in relation to their wages, living conditions, and transportation, among others. Despite recent improvements resulting from unionization and …

St. John's Law Review

(Excerpt)

Before 2013, artists and art enthusiasts would flock to a dilapidated building in Long Island City to view and engage with a vast collection of graffiti and street art murals. The site was filled with over two decades' worth of murals created by legendary street artists such as "Blade" and "Lady Pink." The building, with artists having free reign to paint on the walls of the 200,000 square foot space, became a mecca for graffiti and public art. The community would come in droves to experience the vibrant art and watch performances by rappers and dancers from around the …

The Need For An International Ai Research Initiative: How To Create And Sustain A Virtuous Research-Regulation Cycle To Govern Ai, Kevin Frazier

Washington Journal of Law, Technology & Arts

This paper explains the need for an international AI research initiative. The current focus of lawmakers at the subnational, national, and international level on regulation over research has created an imbalance, neglecting the critical role of continuous, informed research in developing laws that keep pace with rapid technological advancements in AI.

The proposed international AI research initiative would serve as a central hub for comprehensive AI risk analysis, modeled on successful precedents like CERN and the IPCC. CERN exemplifies a collaborative research environment with pooled resources from member states, leading to significant advancements in particle physics. Similarly, the IPCC has …
