摘要:Corporate social responsibility (CSR') has a tax problem. The field encourages companies to do more for society than the minimum that is legally required. But, when it comes to companies avoiding tax, CSR has very little to say. Activists even allege that CSR merely distracts from companies' much costlier tax minimization strategies that deprive the state of needed revenue and thereby undercut the state's capacity to perform these very same functions. Though CSR has historically sidestepped qu...

摘要:Not far from the Labor Court, a woman in a snake-skin dress sits next to a wooden outhouse. The city has set up these so-called labor boxes for prostitutes. There, they are supposed to work and do their business simultaneously. It smells like feces and urine. She had just given a john a blowjob for twenty euros, the prostituted woman says-the drug addicts would do it for five euros. The woman says she's saving for a house for herself and her six-year-old son. At some point, the time will come ...

摘要:The increasingly harsh and unevenly distributed heat-related harms caused by climate change, together with frustration over the collective inability to respond to the crisis, are likely to make unilateral geoengineering efforts increasingly attractive. Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) is a form of solar radiation modification that is effective, technically feasible, and within the financial means of many states and even non-state actors. Yet, there are virtually no global governance struc...

摘要:Enforcing international labor law is a perennial problem. One popular perspective asserts that tying compliance to trade incentives is the solution: several OECD countries have recently promised to ramp up enforcement of the labor rights commitments in their international trade deals. However, little empirical work is available to explain why trade-based enforcement of international labor rights norms works in some cases but not in others-or even if it works at all. This Note assembles a novel...

摘要:There is an important but oft neglected relationship between the problems of corporate governance and international law. Corporate managers grapple with how to respond to society's demands that their enterprises do better when it comes to protecting people and the planet. These demands take many forms, including increased pressure for sustainability and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) measures. These demands are made in response to the economic, social, environmental, and political...

摘要:The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has used force within West Africa for decades. ECOWAS began its practice of using force to resolve the regional crisis in Liberia in 1990 and has continued through 2024 in address-ing the coup d'& eacute;tat in Niger. This Note will use three case studies of ECOWAS's use of force-Liberia (1990), Sierra Leone (1997), and The Gambia (2016)-to evaluate the legal basis for ECOWAS's interventions and the international response. This Note argues...

摘要:Since its inception, the human rights movement has concentrated on rights, whereas remedies have remained peripheral. Human rights conventions, courts, and non-governmental organizations have theorized, analyzed, and sought to internation-alize rights, but remedies have been treated as an afterthought. While the human rights movement has taken a key position in international law, the possibility of a human remedies movement was never considered. In recent years, however, remedies and reparatio...

摘要:Erwin Schrodinger held Austrian, German, and Irish nationalities, at different times in his life. This Article, however, is not about the famed physicist's nationalities, but a paradox along the lines of Schrodinger's cat: Can a person both be a citizen of one or even several states, and stateless at the same time? Perhaps it is possible: refugees, alleged terrorists, and stateless persons sometimes find themselves in this situation, where two states both claim that the other state is responsi...

摘要:This Article discusses the current migratory crisis as one instance of a conceptual mismatch in human rights between formal law and the tools that courts and other quasi-judicial bodies actually utilize in adjudication. While the doctrine centers around individual right-holders, enforcement bodies provide a remedy only when there is a state duty-holder. Human rights scholarship regarding refugees focuses on the right to freedom of movement. However, this right frequently offers little benefit ...
