The Philippine Law of the Sea Action against China
1. China has been blamed – and rightly so – for advancing overbroad claims in the South China Sea (SCS), and for unilaterally attempting to enforce those claims through threats and aggressive actions. The United States has properly responded to China’s assertions by exercising its maritime rights through freedom of navigation operations, by assisting States whose claims are threatened by China’s conduct, and by working to create and strengthen al…
Taking on Iran
Presidential Power and National Security
Recent claims of unilateral, independent executive power have renewed the debate over presidential authority. The Framers, however, adopted a system of separate branches with predominantly mixed rather than independent powers.

Unfortunately, the Journal did not include any response by the administration, but only the President’s necessarily brief l…
The ABM Treaty
Terrorism and the Law
with this threat to civilized order with all appropriate measures, ranging from diplomatic to military. One potential means for dealing with terrorism is law. Amer icans are particularly attracted to the law as a means for repressing violence, and are committed domestically and inter nationally to using law to control criminal conduct and to resolve disputes. They invoke the law almost instinctively, and repeatedly, assuming that it regulates int…
