International Law, Steven R. Ratner 2020 University of Michigan Law School

International Law, Steven R. Ratner

Book Chapters

International law is central to both the discourse and practice of global justice. It offers a critical institutional site for transforming theories about global justice into binding rules with institutional enforcement; many of its rules have strong claims to morality; and it can offer insights into the nature of just arrangements at the international level. This chapter first introduces the key participants and fundamental norms of international law that respond to the various claims of those participants. Second, it elaborates on the range of engagement by international legal scholarship with questions of global justice. Legal scholars have incorporated concepts of …


Reacting Against Treaty Breaches, Bruno Simma, Christian J. Tams 2020 University of Michigan Law School

Reacting Against Treaty Breaches, Bruno Simma, Christian J. Tams

Book Chapters

States regularly proclaim the sanctity of treaty obligations and few principles are as firmly established as pacta sunt servanda. Yet, treaty breaches are by no means exceptional: adapting one of international law's most celebrated statements, one might even say that 'almost all nations, almost all the time, consider their rights under a given treaty to be violated: By way of a snapshot, at the time of writing, eleven of fourteen active contentious cases pending before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) involve claims, by one State, that a certain treaty has been violated. And this ignores the many treaty breaches …

Executive Summary On Ensuring Economic Viability And Sustainability Of Coffee Production, Jeffrey D. Sachs, Kaitlin Y. Cordes, James Rising, Perrine Toledano, Nicolas Maennling

Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment Staff Publications

Coffee, the world’s favorite beverage, provides livelihoods for at least 60 million people across dozens of countries. Yet this beloved drink is experiencing a sustainability crisis. A sustained decline in world coffee prices has squeezed coffee producers, and thrown a tremendous number of producers below the global extreme poverty line of US$1.90 per day. This briefing note presents our research into sustainability within the coffee sector, including the results of our analytical and empirical modeling, and provides several recommendations.

All Roads Lead To Rome: A Jurisprudential Genealogy Of Feminism, Sexual And Gender-Based Violence And International Criminal Law, Jessica M. Zaccagnino 2020 University of Connecticut

All Roads Lead To Rome: A Jurisprudential Genealogy Of Feminism, Sexual And Gender-Based Violence And International Criminal Law, Jessica M. Zaccagnino

Connecticut Journal of International Law

Sexual and gender-based violence is prevalent in armed conflicts throughout all corners of the world. The elevation—and recognition—of sexual and gender-based violence as violence qua violence is an arduous and continual struggle. Although international humanitarian and human rights law purports to proscribe sexual and gender-based violence, the language of the law often minimizes the gravity of this violence and fails to hold perpetrators accountable. This Article argues that to elevate sexual and gender-based violence crimes in the international humanitarian and criminal law hierarchy, there must be a radical reconceptualization of gender under international law. But, in order to envision the …


Paper Terrorists: Independence Movements And The Terrorism Bar, Pooja R. Dadhania 2020 California Western School of Law

Paper Terrorists: Independence Movements And The Terrorism Bar, Pooja R. Dadhania

Faculty Scholarship

This Article explores the application of the terrorism bar in immigration law to noncitizens who have participated in an independence movement. It proposes a uniform standard that immigration adjudicators can use to determine whether a foreign entity is a state in order to promote accurate applications of the terrorism bar. The terrorism bar in the Immigration and Nationality Act is broad — it can bar most forms of immigration relief, including asylum, and reaches far beyond ordinary definitions of terrorism. For example, the terrorism bar can block immigration relief for noncitizens who nonviolently supported a militia fighting for independence against …


Investments And Security: Balancing International Commerce And National Security With Expanded Authority For The Committee On Foreign Investment In The United States, Christopher Jusuf 2020 Catholic University of America (Student)

Investments And Security: Balancing International Commerce And National Security With Expanded Authority For The Committee On Foreign Investment In The United States, Christopher Jusuf

Catholic University Journal of Law and Technology

What happens when the interests of international trade conflict with those of national security? This article analyzes this question within the context of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), an obscure but increasingly powerful executive panel that exercises the president's broad authority to unilaterally interfere with and stop international mergers and acquisitions. With the passage of the Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act (FIRRMA), CFIUS is more powerful now than it has ever been, and should be a key consideration for any company seeking to do business with foreign investors. This is especially true as America …

The Mandatory Bid Rule Under China's Takeover Law: A Comparative And Empirical Perspective, 2020 Southern Methodist University

The Mandatory Bid Rule Under China's Takeover Law: A Comparative And Empirical Perspective

The International Lawyer

China initially transplanted the mandatory bid rule (MBR) from the United Kingdom (U.K.) in the early 1990s but significantly amended it in 2006 to allow the use of partial bids, as well as full bids or general bids, to discharge the MBR duty. This amendment makes the MBR in China deviate from its place of origin both in the books and in action. This paper analyses the similarities and differences between the Chinese MBR and its counterparts in the U.K. and Japan. In doing so, it empirically investigates how the Chinese-style MBR has been applied in practice by examining all …
