The effect of conflict on damage to medical facilities in Mariupol, Ukraine
Medical facilities are civilian objects specially protected by international humanitarian law. Despite the need for systematic documentation of the effects of war on medical facilities for judiciary accountability, current methods for surveilling damage to protected civilian objects during ongoing armed conflict are insufficient. Satellite imagery damage assessment confers significant possibilities for investigating patterns of war. We leveraged …

International law and its transformation through the outlawry of war
The First World War was the last great war of what we have called the ‘old world order’—the legal regime that European states adopted in the seventeenth century and spent the next three centuries imposing on the rest of the globe. This order formed the basis of what scholars call ‘classical international law’. But this body of rules differed starkly from the ones that govern today: the old world order did not just sanction war, it relied on and r…
Response to critics
In this article, we respond to comments raised in an Agora published by Global Constitutionalism on The Internationalists: How a Radical Plan to Outlaw War Remade the World. Specifically, we address (1) the causal efficacy of international law, (2) the causal mechanism by which international law changes state behavior, (3) how new is the New World Order, and (4) we defend our normative claim in close of the book that, for all its imperfections, t…
Why Do Countries Commit to Human Rights Treaties
This article examines states' decisions to commit to human rights treaties. It argues that the effect of a treaty on a state—and hence the state's willingness to commit to it—is largely determined by the domestic enforcement of the treaty and the treaty's collateral consequences. These broad claims give rise to several specific predictions. For example, states with less democratic institutions will be no less likely to commit to human rights trea…
Testing Conventional Wisdom
In my recent article, 'Do Human Rights Treaties Make a Difference?', I presented evidence and arguments that called into doubt two widely shared assumptions: (1) that countries generally comply with their human rights treaty commitments and (2) that countries' practices will be better if they have ratified treaties than they otherwise would be. In response, Professors Ryan Goodman and Derek Jinks argue that we must stick with 'conventional assump…
Making Human Rights Treaties Work
The adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in the wake of the horrors of the Second World War established human rights as a legitimate focus of international attention. In the half-century since, there have arisen nearly 100 universal and regional human rights agreements governing issues as diverse as discrimination against women, state-sponsored torture, and fair trials. Yet, as we embark on the twenty-first century, accompanied b…
Do Human Rights Treaties Make a Difference?
International lawyers for the most part assume that, as Louis Henkin memorably put it, "almost all nations observe almost all principles of international law and almost all of their obligations almost all of the time."'This assumption undergirds the work of many legal scholars and practitioners, who endeavor to explicate and form the law presumably because they believe that it has real impact.Indeed, the claim that international law matters was u…
Positive Feedback
Contrary to widely accepted theories of interest-group demand for protection, industries that experience high and rising import competition after a reduction in trade barriers often become less rather than more protectionist in the long term. To unravel this paradox, I propose and test a theory that explains variation in domestic producer groups' demand for protection over time. This model of industry behavior suggests that trade liberalization h…
