International human rights law’s complicity in status subordination
This article presents a critical postcolonial analysis of international human rights law’s engagement with human trafficking through the lens of seven UN treaty bodies. Drawing on content analysis of 1,197 documents (33 General Comments/Recommendations, 1,049 Concluding Observations, and 115 Individual Communications), the article reveals how international human rights law is implicated in the status subordination of subaltern people. The article…
The Coloniality of International Investment Law in the Commonwealth Caribbean
This article argues that although most Caribbean States have in the last 60 years ascended to statehood, colonialism continues to exist in new and variable forms. It relies upon the concept of ‘coloniality’ as advanced by Schneiderman to contend that the international investment law regime, whose history and evolution is rooted in colonialism, relentlessly pursues the economic interests of foreign investors and capital-exporting countries. It dra…
Human Trafficking
On 28 April 2022, the Westminster Parliament passed the controversial Nationality and Borders Act. The Act is the single biggest overhaul of the UK's immigration system in decades. The Act aims to deter illegal entry into the UK; remove more easily those with no right to be in the UK; and increase the overall fairness of the system. Notwithstanding these seemingly laudable objectives, however, this article argues that the Act represents a retrogr…
Paradoxes and Anomalies in Caribbean Anti-Trafficking Law and Practice
This article critically assesses existing state practices on human trafficking in the Caribbean. More specifically, through analysis of empirical data gleaned from semi-structured interviews with fifty stakeholders (government officials and nongovernmental organization representatives) in twelve Caribbean countries, this article assesses the four main contentious areas of state practice with which regional stakeholders are most concerned: the des…
The Constitutional Limits of Anti-Trafficking Norms in the Commonwealth Caribbean
Trafficking in persons is a crime and a human rights violation that affects most states across the globe, including those in the Commonwealth Caribbean. There- fore, in the last twenty years, governments have rushed to enact anti-trafficking laws with a level of alacrity the international community has never seen before. While the enactment of these laws is both necessary and desirable, some have pushed the limits of what is constitutionally perm…
The Confluence of National and International Law in Response to Multinational Corporations’ Commission of Modern Slavery
This article examines the recently decided Canadian striking out application of SCC 5, a case in which the Supreme Court of Canada held, in a 5–4 decision, that a private corporation may be liable under Canadian law for breaches of customary international law committed in other countries. The article assesses the majority’s holding that a sui generis domestic cause of action grounded in customary international law exists in Canada to combat slave…
The Shifting Pendulum
In February 2020, the Supreme Court of Canada rendered a decision— Nevsun Resources Ltd. v. Araya, 2020 SCC 5 —that can properly be described as revolutionary. In Nevsun, the court found that a Canadian corporation operating in a host state, Eretria, could be liable under Canadian domestic law for human rights abuses committed in Eritrea under customary international law, as incorporated into Canadian domestic law. The decision merits special att…
Caribbean Anti-Trafficking Law and Practice
This monograph investigates the International, European and Commonwealth Caribbean approaches to human trafficking from an Analytical Eclectic perspective. It presents a compelling, empirically based argument that although there is currently a panoply of measures aimed at preventing human trafficking, prosecuting offenders and protecting trafficked victims in both Europe and the Commonwealth Caribbean, these measures have in practice been fraught…
Commonwealth Caribbean Sports Law
Sports Law has quickly developed into an accepted area of academic study and practice in the legal profession globally. In Europe and North America, Sports Law has been very much a part of the legal landscape for about four decades, while in more recent times, it has blossomed in other geographic regions, including the Commonwealth Caribbean. This book recognizes the rapid evolution of Sports Law and seeks to embrace its relevance to the region. …
Christianity and Public Culture in Africa
The role of religion in the public realm in sub-Saharan Africa (henceforward, Africa) is controversial. In order to understand the role of religion in political and social discourse in contemporary Africa—that is, as an ideology of attempted hegemonic control, on the one hand, and as a mobilizing vehicle of community organization to help fend off that control, on the other—scholars have pointed to the importance of the colonial era. During that p…
The Sequence of the Human Genome
A 2.91-billion base pair (bp) consensus sequence of the euchromatic portion of the human genome was generated by the whole-genome shotgun sequencing method. The 14.8-billion bp DNA sequence was generated over 9 months from 27,271,853 high-quality sequence reads (5.11-fold coverage of the genome) from both ends of plasmid clones made from the DNA of five individuals. Two assembly strategies—a whole-genome assembly and a regional chromosome assembl…
