Regulating China's Ecommerce: Harmonizations Of Laws, Pinghui Xiao

Journal of Food Law & Policy

Internet commercialization began in China in 1995. Since then, China has seen a digitalization movement, which has become a joint undertaking between industry and government in the age of ubiquitous Internet in China. China’s Premier Li Keqiang announced ‘Internet Plus’ as the national strategy in his Government Work Report presented during the Two Sessions of the year of 2015. Following Premier Li’s vision for the ‘Internet Plus’ Strategy, China is now determined “to integrate mobile Internet, cloud computing, big data, and the Internet of Things with modern manufacturing, to encourage the healthy development of e-commerce, industrial networks, and Internet banking, …

Terrorists Are Always Muslim But Never White: At The Intersection Of Critical Race Theory And Propaganda, Caroline Mala Corbin University of Miami School of Law

Terrorists Are Always Muslim But Never White: At The Intersection Of Critical Race Theory And Propaganda, Caroline Mala Corbin

Fordham Law Review

When you hear the word “terrorist,” who do you picture? Chances are, it is not a white person. In the United States, two common though false narratives about terrorists who attack America abound. We see them on television, in the movies, on the news, and, currently, in the Trump administration. The first is that “terrorists are always (brown) Muslims.” The second is that “white people are never terrorists.” Different strands of critical race theory can help us understand these two narratives. One strand examines the role of unconscious cognitive biases in the production of stereotypes, such as the stereotype of …

Bigtechs And The Emergence Of New Systemically Important Financial Institutions: Lessons From The Chinese Experience, Christine M. Wang, Douglas W. Arner Emory University School of Law

Bigtechs And The Emergence Of New Systemically Important Financial Institutions: Lessons From The Chinese Experience, Christine M. Wang, Douglas W. Arner

Emory International Law Review

Over the past two decades, the emergence of giant technology firms (Bigtechs) has disrupted the traditional way that financial markets operate. These technology giants have leveraged network effects, massive amounts of data, and extensive customer bases to expand into the financial sector and rapidly achieve economies of scale and scope. The expansion of Bigtechs into finance has reinforced the pre-existing trends of digitalization and datafication in finance, which has evolved into a new era of the platformization. With a substantial presence in financial markets, the development of digital finance platforms has enormous potential for enhancing financial inclusion, efficiency and sustainable …

The Smugglers' Landscape: Geography, Route Selection And The Global Heroin Trade, James Dallis Medler Old Dominion University

The Smugglers' Landscape: Geography, Route Selection And The Global Heroin Trade, James Dallis Medler

Graduate Program in International Studies Theses & Dissertations

This study focuses on transnational smuggling, and puts forth an analytical framework from the smugglers' perspective with respect to route selection, focusing primarily on aspects of economic, political, and human geography. It is predicated on three interconnected decision-making domains that constitute the smuggler's operational landscape, namely access, risk and connectivity, which interact to drive the smugglers' perceptions of route attractiveness. The first two domains operate reciprocally, primarily at the national level of analysis, and together both shape and are shaped by the third at the transnational level to form a feedback loop. With respect to connectivity, the convention of the …

The Effect Of International Adoption As An Orphan Care Method In Uganda, Amy N. Bergey Southeastern University - Lakeland

The Effect Of International Adoption As An Orphan Care Method In Uganda, Amy N. Bergey

Selected Honors Theses

International adoption has been gaining popularity since the end of the twentieth century (Selman, 2002). Throughout this increase in international adoptions, the focus has drifted away from its original goal of providing homes that are in the best interest of the children (Graff, 2008). It has become more common for international adoption agencies to conduct international adoptions as a profitable business strategy, as international adoptive parents pay an average of $40,000 for a child (MGLSD, 2012; Graff, 2008). While this is not always the case, corruption is prevalent in the system and can endanger children to trafficking and illegal adoptions …
