To Litigate a Pandemic
The devastation wrought by the spread of the novel coronavirus has touched virtually every country and will affect countless lives and livelihoods for years to come In the midst of the ongoing pandemic, individuals in some countries have sought legal redress through their own domestic courts This phenomenon seems most prevalent in the United States, where at least twenty civil lawsuits had been filed as of June 2020—eighteen by private litigants,…
Attribution by Indictment
The challenges of attributing malicious cyber activity—that is, identifying its authors and provenance with a sufficient degree of certainty—are well documented. This essay focuses on a phenomenon that I call “attribution by indictment.” Since 2014, the United States has issued more than a dozen indictments that implicate four foreign states in malicious cyber activity: China, Iran, Russia, and North Korea. Ten of these indictments were issued in…
Jam v. International Finance Corp
In Jam v. International Finance Corp. , the U.S. Supreme Court held that the International Organizations Immunities Act of 1945 (IOIA) affords international organizations (IOs) the same immunity from suit in U.S. courts that foreign governments currently enjoy under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 (FSIA), which codifies the restrictive theory of foreign sovereign immunity. The International Finance Corporation (IFC) had argued that t…
Horizontal Enforcement and the ILC's Proposed Draft Articles on the Immunity of State Officials from Foreign Criminal Jurisdiction
The Nuremberg principles affirmed by the U.N. General Assembly and formulated by the International Law Commission (ILC) provide that "[t]he fact that a person who committed an act which constitutes a crime under international law acted as Head of State or responsible Government official does not relieve him (sic) from responsibility under international law." Few would dispute this basic principle. More contested is the question of who has authori…

The Challenge of Building an Inter-Communal Rule of Law in Helen Hunt Jackson’s Ramona
This article uses Helen Hunt Jackson’s 1884 novel Ramona to ground an exploration of the problems associated with building an inter-communal rule of law. A close reading of Jackson’s text reveals a rudimentary philosophy of law that comprises three central tenets: (1) a strong element of natural law thinking, which enables Jackson to construct an ideal of justice based on her conception of all individuals as members of a common humanity; (2) a cr…
National Self-Determination in Historical Perspective
This essay examines the role of the nation-state principle in international politics-that is, the often tacit assumption that nations and states are or should be congruent-and that a presumptive right to national self-determination exists where this is not the case. The political resonance of the “nation” and sympathy for claims to its ethical primacy come largely from the association between nationhood and self-government, a connection often tra…
