Ai Art And U.S. Copyright Decisions: What The U.S. Can Do Differently Than China And The E.U. To Efficiently Promote Balance Between Ai Innovation And Copyright Regulation, Adam Pycior
Loyola University Chicago International Law Review
The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence ("Al") in recent years has spurred a plethora of discussions concerning ethical boundaries, government regulations, and more. Thaler v. Perlmutter highlights a unique one: the challenging question of if, and how, AI generated artworks may be copyrightable. The court denied copyright to plaintiff Stephen Thaler's work "A Recent Entrance to Paradise" generated by his AI system, "The Creativity Machine," holding that autonomously generated works cannot be copyrighted under the existing precedent. However, the court failed to answer, though it acknowledged, the pressing question as to the degree of human input necessary to copyright such …

An International Law Of The Emotions,
2025
Osgoode Hall Law School of York University
An International Law Of The Emotions, Emily Kidd White
All Papers
Talk of the emotional or affective turn in international law is relatively recent though it tracks and echoes several other critical methods movements, including the turn to history, in the study of international law and, so too, a two-decade long wave of law and emotions research in several domestic legal systems. The affective turn in international law in several instances aims to critique a post-Cold War optimism that held out the promise that a rules and reason-based international order would work to abate war, and secure peace, prosperity and efficient capital flows. As outlined by the editors of this volume …
Implementation Of Uniform Competition Protocol In African States: Best Foot Forward In The Optimization Of The Afcfta,

Implementation Of Uniform Competition Protocol In African States: Best Foot Forward In The Optimization Of The Afcfta, Ndubuisi Augustine Nwafor
South Carolina Journal of International Law and Business
Before the emergence of the Protocol to the African Continental Free Trade Area Agreement on Competition (AfCFTA Competition Protocol), there was no unified competition framework to regulate the African Continental Free Trade Area. What existed was a fragmentation of regional competition frameworks created along regional economic ties, characterised by confusing overlaps and multiple memberships. In addition to the fragmented approach, Africa was not represented at the global level when leading competition institutions from other regions made decisions on anticompetitive conduct with worldwide implications. Adopted by the African Union (AU) in 2023, the AfCFTA Competition Protocol challenges the existing situation. It …

This thesis explores the inadequate nature of the current legal space regime and points out the gaps in outer space laws, including the following: Jurisdictional Challenges, Frameworks of Liability, and IP (Intellectual Property) Enforcement, utilizing laws such as the Outer Space Treaty (OST), the Liability Convention, the Registration Convention, the Moon Agreement, the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT), and TRIPS, along with national laws like the U.S. Commercial Space Launch Competitiveness Act and The Inventions in Outer Space Act (35 U.S.C. § 105.). Through analysis of current scholarly proposals and treaty evolution and synthesize to provide policy options, the goal of …

But For Borders: The Protection Gap For Internally Displaced Persons, Anita Sinha
Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals
Internal displacement, the phenomenon of people who are dislocated from their homes but remain within the border of their countries of origin, was once a forced migratory occurrence interchangeable with cross-border migration. This changed after the Second World War with the promulgation of the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees, which was premised on an insistence on drawing a legal line in the sand based on which side of a border displacement transpires upon. Internally displaced persons (IDPs)-both in recent history and in the projected future-far outnumber people displaced across borders. Both rhetorical maneuverings and traditional international legal …

"In This House, We Pull Ourselves Up By Our Bootstraps": The Foundations Of Parliamentary Sovereignty In The United Kingdom, New Zealand, And Sweden, Andrew Hull
Emory International Law Review Recent Developments
This paper considers the legal foundations of parliamentary sovereignty in three states: the United Kingdom, the Realm of New Zealand, and the Kingdom of Sweden. Two of these countries hail from the common law legal family, while Sweden is a civil law country with Nordic legal characteristics. After initial discussion of parliamentary sovereignty and Carl Schmitt’s theory of sovereignty, I will consider each of these states’ examples of parliamentary sovereignty in turn. We shall see the historical development of these three countries’ parliamentary sovereignties deeply implicates the other four of Zweigert and Kötz’s factors for defining legal styles: legal thinking, …

Framing Legal Systems In New And Emerging Statelets: Autonomous Projects Of The Zapatistas Of Chiapas And The Democratic Autonomous Administration Of Northern And Eastern Syria, Samuel Wolff
Emory International Law Review Recent Developments
Autonomous movements within states are disruptions in the normal order and control that a state exerts over its territories. While there are some groups that aim to achieve autonomy and recognition while staying within the structure of the existing state, other groups seek to succeed and establish their own autonomous area completely succeeding and divorcing from the state. For a variety of reasons- from mistrust of a corrupt central government to violent repression of ethnic minorities- movements arise offering an alternative to the existing state. As these movements break, sometimes violently, from the state, they also break from the legal …

"Double-Sided Shareholder Primacy": Even More Powerful Corporate Governance Machine In China Than The United States?, Wenhan Tang
Emory International Law Review Recent Developments
This article examines the emergence of a “double-sided shareholder primacy” in China’s corporate governance, contrasting it with the U.S. “single-sided shareholder primacy”. While the U.S. emphasizes shareholder interests as the corporate purpose but centralizes governance power in boards, China’s system uniquely combines shareholder-centric corporate objectives and concentrated shareholder control, reinforced by a more powerful “Corporate Governance Machine.” This machine integrates legal transplants (e.g., extreme shareholder meeting authority), ternary controllers (state, family, and minority stockholders), cultural ideologies favoring power concentration, and political metaphors likening meetings of shareholders to sovereign bodies. Despite its entrenchment, China’s 2024 Company Law revisions reveal efforts to …

Two Americas, Across Two Americas: A Comparative Analysis Of Indigenous Law In The United States And Guatemala, Thomas Jiwon Lynch
Emory International Law Review Recent Developments
The United States and Guatemala are home to some of the largest indigenous populations on earth. They are also home to some of the worst transgressions against these peoples. Though superficially distinct, the two states share the same violent colonial history and their differing approaches to modern indigenous rights both miss the mark. The question is why. Is it because US judges routinely misinterpret existing case law? Because the rule of law is weaker in Guatemala? Or is there something far more deeply rooted in each state’s shared history that prevents true recognition of indigenous rights? This paper attempts to …

Comparative Federalism In The Us And The Eu — The Winemaker's Legal Perspective, Clement Xu
Emory International Law Review Recent Developments
In our lives, many of us will intersect with wine at some point, be it an aged bordeaux presented in elaborate fashion, or a box of nondescript cooler doled out at a backyard cookout. Beyond analyzing a wine for the complexity of its bouquet, or the strength of its tannins, the wine market as a whole beckons a nuanced study from the perspective of comparative law. The radical differences in business models, consumer base, and even expectations, between the “old world” and the “new world” give rise to a number of topics ranging from authenticity, legal protection, and government regulatory …
Synthetic Media As A Risk Factor For Genocide,

Synthetic Media As A Risk Factor For Genocide, Fatemah Albader
Journal of Law, Technology, & the Internet
The rise of artificial intelligence and machine learning has introduced synthetic media—AI-generated images and videos—as a transformative tool in international law. While these technologies can enhance documentation, advocacy, and awareness in conflict zones, they also pose serious risks when misused to incite violence or genocide. This Article explores the dual nature of synthetic media, focusing on its capacity to inflame ethnic tensions, spread disinformation, and manipulate public perception in ways that can catalyze mass atrocities. Drawing on historical examples and recent events, it highlights how synthetic media can function as a risk factor for genocide, especially in volatile environments, and …

Rightly Dividing Jus Ad Bellum And Jus In Bello In The Israel/Hamas War, Jeffrey F. Addicott
Faculty Articles
The purpose of this paper is to: (1) review the applicable rule of law as it relates to both the initiation of warfare and the use of armed force in the execution of that warfare; and (2) apply those legal standards to the facts associated with the Israel/Hamas conflict. While this may seem an easy task – to set out unanimity in the international community – it is not. The inability to set bright lines of distinction between aggressors and those acting in self-defense is not just a failure in definition or even understanding, it is a failure to legitimize …

The Time Has Come To Stop The Bloodshed In Myanmar And Restore The People's Democratically Elected Government, Ronnie R. Gipson Jr.
Faculty Scholarship
Although the Myanmar coup occurred in February 2021, the world paid little attention mostly because the citizens were not white, not European, and the country did not hold huge oil reserves. Subsequent to the coup, Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, and Israel responded to the Hamas attack on its territory by invading Gaza in 2023. Both of these events assured that the international community paid little to no attention to the plight of the people of Myanmar under the thumb of a repressive military dictatorship after having their freely elected democracy ripped away. If Ukraine is worthy of global attention, …

Anticolonial Rights Advocacy, Christopher M. Roberts, Michelle M. Ong
Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review
It is often asserted that human rights discourse and practice principally originated following the Second World War, or as late as the 1970s, and that human rights claims are inherently Western and liberal. None of these assertions are true. In fact, both rights-based critiques and rights claims were frequently articulated prior to the Second World War. They were articulated not only by Western liberals, but also by anticolonial advocates from every part of the world. This article explores anticolonial rights claims advanced between the end of the First World War and 1930. Rights claims were extensively made by numerous groups …
