The Role Of The International Committee Of The Red Cross, Rotem Giladi, Steven Ratner

Book Chapters

In the absence of a serious implementation mechanism in the Geneva Conventions, much of the leading responsibility for promoting their observance falls upon the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), the 150-year-old institution that is a sui generis hybrid between a Swiss non-governmental organization (NGO) and an international organization. With its secretariat in Geneva and delegations throughout the world, the ICRC is, in many conflicts, the most direct voice for the Conventions. The central role of the ICRC pre-dates the Conventions, for the ICRC has been the driving force behind the codification of international humanitarian law (IHL) since the …

A Standard Of Global Justice, Steven R. Ratner

Book Chapters

This chapter presents the standard of justice that is used in this book to appraise international law. That standard is based on two core principles, or what the book calls pillars—the promotion of international and intrastate peace, on the one hand, and respect for the basic human rights of all individuals, on the other. The justice of international norms is determined by the extent to which they lead to a state of affairs involving peace and human rights, with some room for deontological considerations in limited situations. The chapter defends the choice of these two pillars. It elaborates on the …

Producing Better Mileage: Advancing The Design And Usefulness Of Hybrid Vehicles For Social Business Ventures, John E. Tyler, Evan Absher, Kathleen Garman, Anthony J. Luppino

Faculty Works

Since 2008 approximately half of the states in the U.S. have enacted statutes permitting “hybrid” business forms that blend aspects of traditional for-profit ventures with characteristics normally associated with traditional non-profit entities. This article analyzes theoretical, academic, practical, legal, and regulatory questions regarding the extent to which the existing hybrids are suited to achieving social purposes objectives, including in comparison to modified traditional forms of business organization. Finding the current fleet of hybrids an innovative, useful start, but with need to evolve, this article proposes statutory language (set forth in a detailed appendix, and summarized in the article text), and …

The Complexity Of International Criminal Trials Is Necessary, 48 Geo. Wash. Int'l L. Rev. 151 (2015), Stuart Ford

UIC Law Open Access Faculty Scholarship

There is a widespread belief among both academics and policymakers that international criminal trials are too complex. As a result, tribunals have come under enormous pressure to reduce the complexity of their trials. However, changes to trial procedure have not meaningfully affected trial complexity. This Article explains why these changes have failed and argues that the complexity of international criminal trials is necessary for them to achieve their purposes.

Using a multiple regression model of the factors driving trial complexity at the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY), this Article shows that the largest drivers of complexity are …

Barnacles, Aristocracy And Truth Denial: Three Not So Beautiful Aspects Of Contemporary Mediation, James R. Coben

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

Like any fairy tale, the Sleeping Beauty story has many variations. Most are far more complicated and sinister than the Disneyesque version that the public is familiar with. The same is true with mediation. On the surface, it is a beautiful story-self-determination, mediator neutrality, and party empowerment. In practice, especially in litigated cases, something else quite dark is actually transpiring: parties are literally locked away from one another. Mediators routinely testify and often actively "assist parties" to see the world as the mediators and the parties' lawyers do. Settlement is a prime directive and driving force. Institutionalization through statute and …

Risky Business: Lessons For Mitigating Cyber Attacks From The International Insurance Law On Piracy, Scott J. Shackelford, Scott Russell

Minnesota Journal of International Law, Vols 1-28:1 (1992-2019)

Organizations of all sizes have increasingly been investigating the prospect of investing in cyber risk insurance to better manage the multifaceted cyber threat. But how useful is cyber risk insurance? Is international insurance law impacting the cyber risk insurance market? And what lessons can be taken from other analogies, such as the maritime piracy context? This article discusses the impact of cyber attacks on the private sector along with analyzing the benefits and drawbacks of relying on cyber risk insurance to enhance cybersecurity by drawing from the maritime insurance industry’s response to piracy. We argue that firms must take a …
