Prosecuting Generals For War Crimes: The Shifting Sands Of Accomplice Liability In International Criminal Law, Mark A. Summers 2015 Barry University, Dwayne O. Andreas School of Law

Prosecuting Generals For War Crimes: The Shifting Sands Of Accomplice Liability In International Criminal Law, Mark A. Summers

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

It advocates for the ICC to adopt a clear, intent-based standard to ensure accountability and consistency, avoiding the ambiguities of "specific direction."


The Doctrine Of Legitimate Defense, Jens Ohlin 2015 U.S. Naval War College

The Doctrine Of Legitimate Defense, Jens Ohlin

International Law Studies

The following article reorients mainstream conceptions of self-defense by defending a broader doctrine of legitimate defense that, in limited circumstances, justifies unilateral intervention. The source of the doctrine is natural law, which was explicitly incorporated into the text of UN Charter Article 51. The effect of this incorporation was to preserve, as a carve-out from the prohibition against force in Article 2, the natural law rights of defensive force. Specifically, the Article concludes that defensive force under natural law included, in extreme situations, a right of intervention in rogue States that refused to comply with natural law.

The Military's Sexual Assault Blind Spot, Eric R. Carpenter 2015 Florida International University College of Law

The Military's Sexual Assault Blind Spot, Eric R. Carpenter

Faculty Publications

The American military is in a well-publicized struggle to address its sexual assault problem. Critics say that those in the military who run the military justice system have a bias against the victims in these cases, where that bias is likely related to some form of sexism.

This article explores that problem and offers a social psychology explanation that supports the critics' position. This article explains the cognitive process that people use to solve these legal problems and then highlights a serious flaw in that process – the use of inaccurate rape schemas. This article focuses on two potential groups …

From Mayberry To Ferguson: The Militarization Of American Policing Equipment, Culture, And Mission, Cadman R. Kiker III 2015 Washington and Lee University School of Law

From Mayberry To Ferguson: The Militarization Of American Policing Equipment, Culture, And Mission, Cadman R. Kiker Iii

Washington and Lee Law Review Online

We are at the dawn of a new era of policing in the United States. In recent months, images of armed police officers patrolling the streets of Ferguson, Missouri, and of a toddler burned by a Georgia SWAT team’s grenade have been indelibly branded into America’s social consciousness. There is a unique bipartisan outcry from Washington in a time otherwise marked by bitter political divides. Politicians and journalists alike are questioning the efficacy of a militaristic police force and the path that led to this shift in the paradigm of policing.

This Essay examines the how and why of police …
