The Law Of War And The Responsibility To Protect Civilians: A Reinterpretation, Thomas H. Lee 2014 Fordham University School of Law

The Law Of War And The Responsibility To Protect Civilians: A Reinterpretation, Thomas H. Lee

Faculty Scholarship

Two seemingly unrelated crises implicating the law of war and the responsibility to protect civilians have arisen in recent years. In 2013, the United States considered military intervention without United Nations (“U.N.”) Security Council preapproval in Syria after discovering that the government had exterminated its own people with chemical agents. In 2014, Russia sent troops into Crimea, a part of Ukraine, to protect ethnic Russians that Russia claimed were in danger after a political coup in the country. In both cases, the military acts contemplated or undertaken were of dubious legality, albeit under different rubrics. This Article aims to show …

The Dynamic Of The Institutionalization Of The Oecd Anti-Bribery Collaboration, Lianlian Liu 2014 The Chinese University of Hong Kong

The Dynamic Of The Institutionalization Of The Oecd Anti-Bribery Collaboration, Lianlian Liu

South Carolina Journal of International Law and Business

Grasping the dynamic of the institutionalization process of the anti-bribery collaboration from the FCPA to the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention is critical for the next step of analyzing the actual performance of these laws. Previous works, grounded in realist ideology, often reduce the dynamic process to a question of states' free will and rational responses to expected payoffs in relative
legislative strategies. This realist approach offers only speculative and inaccurate explanations that cannot sustain an understanding of the operation of the anti-bribery collaboration at successive stages.Instead, this study employs a historical approach, stressing how decision makers were constrained by existing and …

Arbitration/Litigation Interface: The European Debate, Margaret L. Moses 2014 Loyola University Chicago, School of Law

Arbitration/Litigation Interface: The European Debate, Margaret L. Moses

Faculty Publications & Other Works

In recent years, there has been a debate in the European Union over the need to provide a transparent and predictable interface between international arbitration and cross-border litigation. That debate has recently culminated in the issuance of the Recast Brussels Regulation (the Recast), effective January 10, 2015. However, the Recast has not provided a method to accomplish this interface because it does not prevent parallel proceedings. Parallel proceedings occur when a party that had agreed to arbitrate nonetheless goes to court while the other party proceeds with arbitration. These parallel proceedings undermine the effectiveness of arbitration because of increased cost, …

An Eye Toward Effective Enforcement: A Technical-Comparative Approach To The Drafting Negotiations, Tara J. Melish

Contributions to Books

Published as Chapter 5 in Human Rights and Disability Advocacy, Maya Sabatello & Marianne Schulze, eds.

The unprecedented level of civil society participation that took place in the drafting of the U.N. Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) constitutes a major key to its success -- laying a solid foundation for the much longer and harder process of implementation ahead. This piece addresses how one civil society organization -- Disability Rights International (DRI) -- approached the negotiation process. Part I explains the strategic approach DRI adopted, highlighting its methodology, the guiding principles it embraced, and the resulting …


The Marrakesh Puzzle, Marketa Trimble 2014 University of Nevada, Las Vegas -- William S. Boyd School of Law

The Marrakesh Puzzle, Marketa Trimble

Scholarly Works

This article analyzes the puzzle created by the 2013 Marrakesh Treaty in its provisions concerning the cross-border exchange of copies of copyrighted works made for use by persons who are “blind, visually impaired, or otherwise print disabled” (copies known as “accessible format copies”). The analysis should assist executive and legislative experts as they seek optimal methods for implementing the Treaty. The article provides an overview of the Treaty, notes its unique features, and examines in detail its provisions on the cross-border exchange of accessible format copies. The article discusses three possible sources for implementation tools – choice of law rules, …
