New Hactivists And The Old Concept Of Levee En Masse, Christopher Waters 2014 University of Windsor

New Hactivists And The Old Concept Of Levee En Masse, Christopher Waters

Dalhousie Law Journal

The purpose of this article is to contribute to the continuing debate over the relevance of International Humanitarian Law (IHL) to cyberwar It does so by taking what is often said to be a particularly archaic aspect of IHL, the French Revolutionary notion of levee en masse, and asking whether the concept could have relevance in the cyber context. The article treats levee en masse as a litmus test for the law's relevance; if this IHL "relic" could have relevance in the cyber context, then the continued relevance of the larger body of rules should also be less doubtful.

Congress's Treaty-Implementing Power In Historical Practice, Jean Galbraith 2014 William & Mary Law School

Congress's Treaty-Implementing Power In Historical Practice, Jean Galbraith

William & Mary Law Review

Historical practice strongly influences constitutional interpretation in foreign relations law, including most questions relating to the treaty power. Yet it is strikingly absent from the present debate over whether Congress can pass legislation implementing U.S. treaties under the Necessary and Proper Clause. Drawing on previously unexplored sources, this Article considers the historical roots of Congress’s power to implement U.S. treaties between the Founding Era and the seminal case of Missouri v. Holland in 1920. It shows that time after time, members of Congress understood the Necessary and Proper Clause to provide a constitutional basis for a congressional power to implement …
