Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AILC is an annual case law reporter that provides the full text of U.S. court opinions involving international law issues. The courts covered include all U.S. federal district courts, federal appellate courts, and the U.S. Supreme Court, as well as some state courts, the U.S. Court of Claims, the U.S. Court of International Trade, and the U.S. Tax Court. The series seeks to provide not every single case in which a court refers to international law but rather all cases that analyze at least one international law issue in depth. The list of subjects addressed by these volumes is vast and changes from year to year, with the inclusion and prominence of most topics turning on their prevalence in a given year's jurisprudence. Some consistently prominent topics are personal jurisdiction over foreign defendants, deportation procedure, and double taxation. Over the last three editions (2006, 2007, and 2008), many topics have developed rapidly and constitute a correspondingly larger portion of the volumes, particularly Terrorism, the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, Forum Non Conveniens, and an entirely new, added topic: the National Security Exception (to deportation eligibility). The 2008 edition of AILC also features expanded sections on family law and on the detention of terrorist suspects. The U.S. war on terror and the crisis at Guantanamo have made that last topic a significant and dynamic component of AILC. Each edition of AILC also comes framed with two practical resources for students and scholars. The first is an introductory editor's note that both reviews international law's major developments for the given year and explains to readers how to use the volumes. The second is a subject index to allow for targeted research. Volume Four of AILC covers procedural issues, including those in foreign proceedings. The volume also covers the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act. The appellate court in El Paso Corporation v. La Comision Ejecutiva Hidro Electrica del Rio Lempa affirmed the district court's denial of the plaintiff's request for discovery for use in a private international arbitration proceeding. The arbitration was conducted pursuant to the parties' agreement under the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law arbitration rules, El Salvadoran substantive law, and Swiss procedural law. In Muhamed Sacirbey v. Joseph R. Guccione, the issue was whether an arrest warrant issued by a foreign court that no longer has jurisdiction over the accused, nor the power to enforce the warrant, can provide an adequate basis for the extradition of a United States citizen.

Volume Eight of AILC involves issues involving aliens, such as deportation, extradition, aiding and transporting illegal aliens, and border entry. It also includes issues in international courts and issues surrounding war, belligerency, and neutrality. In Gherebi v. Obama, the petitioners, detainees at Guantanamo Bay, challenge the legality of their confinement by the government, seeking the issuance of writs of habeas corpus to secure their release from detention. The issue was whether the President has the authority to detain individuals as part of its ongoing military campaign against al-Quaeda and, if so, what is the scope of that authority. In Vinyls, Inc. v. United States, the issue was whether the Court of International Trade correctly concluded that the imported product, whose textile component is made entirely of man-made fibers, is a product with textile components in which man-made fibers predominate by weight over another single textile fiber. The court concluded that the Court of International Trade Correctly classified the subject goods.

The volume also includes issues in customs law, environmental law, human rights, and criminal law. In World Fuel Corporation v. Geithner, the issue was whether the Office of Foreign Assets Control, United States Department of the Treasury properly denied World Fuel Corporation a license to access the blocked assets of one of WFC's debtors. The district court remanded the matter to the OFAC for de novo consideration. The circuit court dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. In United States v. Rodriguez, the principal issue was whether the Hostage Act has been validly applied to defendants who perpetrated an extortion scheme that used brief confinement of a taxi passenger to obtain a somewhat above average taxi fare. The court concluded that the Hostage Act does not apply to the facts of the case.

The volume also concerns the status and rights of aliens, involving asylum and deportation procedures and due process rights. In Rashad v. Mukasey, the petitioner submitted a petition for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the United Nations Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment. The Immigration Judge (IJ) rejected the petition since it was filed past the one year statutory period. The circuit court affirmed the IJ's decision and found that the evidence and testimony offered by the petitioner was insufficient to compel a reasonable fact finder to conclude that more likely than not he would be tortured or persecuted if he were to return to Pakistan. In Arar v. Ashcroft, Arar alleged a violation of the Torture Victim Protection Act and his Fifth Amendment substantive due process rights arising form the conditions of his detention in the United States, the denial of his access to counsel and to the courts while in the United States, and his detention and torture in Syria. The court examined whether Arar's extraordinary rendition claim could be examined under a new context.

The volume also includes cases involving diplomacy and diplomatic immunity and treaties and agreements. In Mani Kumari Sabbithi v. Major Waleede KH N.S. AL SALEH, domestic workers from India sued their employers and the state of Kuwait under the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000, the Fair Labor Standards Act, and various contract and tort claims. The court granted the defendants' motion to dismiss based on diplomatic immunity. In In re B. Del C.S.B., the issue was whether a child of Mexican origin, whose mother wrongfully retained her in the United States, should be allowed to stay in her current home while custody proceedings are conducted in the United States, or whether she should be returned to Mexico while the proceedings are conducted there. The court examined whether a child is not settled for the purposes of Article 12 of the Hague Convention.

The cases in Volume Three of AILC cover procedural aspects, including jurisdictional questions, forum non conveniens, choice of law, and discovery. The issue in Capital Ventures International v. Republic of Argentina was whether the Republic of Argentina explicitly waived its sovereign immunity from suit in the United States as to claims relating to bonds issued by Argentina under German law. The court found that there was subject matter jurisdiction over the claims relating to the German bonds because Argentina explicitly waived its sovereign immunity to suit in United States courts on those claims. In Aguas Lenders Recovery Group LLC v. Suez, S.A., Sociedad General de Aguas de Barcelona, S.A., Agua y Saneamientos Argentinos, S.A., the issue was whether, for the purposes of the doctrine of forum non conveniens, a non-signatory to an agreement may be bound by a forum selection clause and forum non conveniens waiver contained in contracts entered into by an entity alleged to be a predecessor in interest. The court held that such a non-signatory may be bound.

The court ruled that punitive damages were available as a matter of general maritime law. The issue in Jose Marcial Reyes-Fuentes, et al., v. Shannon Produce Farm, Inc., et al. was whether the Fair Labor Standards Act's (FLSA) provision provides a cause of action to foreign workers located abroad who are denied re-hire in retaliation for exercising their rights under the FLSA. The court ruled that neither the FLSA nor general extraterritoriality principles stand in the way of the plaintiffs' retaliation claim.

Pfizer, Inc., the Plaintiff-Appellants sued under the Alien Tort Statute (ATS), claiming defendants violated a customary international law norm prohibiting involuntary medical experimentation on humans. Among other rulings, the appellate court ruled that the district court incorrectly determined that the prohibition in customary international law against nonconsensual human medical experimentation cannot be enforced through the ATS, and reversed and remanded for further proceedings. In Cunzhu Zheng v. Yahoo! Inc., the plaintiffs alleged that Yahoo! China disclosed to the Peoples Republic of China (PRC) specific personal information about plaintiffs, and that, as a result of the disclosures, plaintiffs were subjected by the PRC to serious injuries and serious economic damages.

Download or read book The Politics of Naming the Armenian Genocide written by Vartan Matiossian and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-23 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the genealogy of the concept of 'Medz Yeghern' ('Great Crime'), the Armenian term for the mass murder and ethnic cleansing of the Armenian ethno-religious group in the Ottoman Empire between the years 1915-1923. Widely accepted by historians as one of the classical cases of genocide in the 20th century, ascribing the right definition to the crime has been a source of contention and controversy in international politics. Vartan Matiossian here draws upon extensive research based on Armenian sources, neglected in much of the current historiography, as well as other European languages in order to trace the development of the concepts pertaining to mass killing and genocide of Armenians from the ancient to the modern periods. Beginning with an analysis of the term itself, he shows how the politics of its use evolved as Armenians struggled for international recognition of the crime after 1945, in the face of Turkish protest. Taking a combined historical, philological, literary and political perspective, the book is an insightful exploration of the politics of naming a catastrophic historical event, and the competitive nature of national collective memories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this formidable narrative, the prize-winning and super honest reporter, Patrick Sloyan, adds the depth of a scholar's context to produce a gripping reminder of why we should never forget history. He makes readers feel like they were eye witnesses." —Ralph Nader From a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who reported on the events as they happened, an action-packed account of Reagan's failures in the 1983 Marines barracks bombing in Beirut. On October 23, 1983, a truck bomb destroyed the U.S. Marines barracks in Beirut. 241 Americans were killed in the worst terrorist attack our nation would suffer until 9/11. We’re still feeling the repercussions today. When Reagan Sent In the Marines tells why the Marines were there, how their mission became confused and compromised, and how President Ronald Reagan used another misguided military venture to distract America from the attack and his many mistakes leading up to it. Pulitzer Prize-winning author Patrick J. Sloyan uses his own contemporaneous reporting, his close relationships with the Marines in Beirut, recently declassified documents, and interviews with key players, including Reagan’s top advisers, to shine a new light on the Israeli invasion of Lebanon and Reagan’s doomed ceasefire in Beirut. Sloyan draws on interviews with key players to explore the actions of Kissinger and Haig, while revealing the courage of Marine Colonel Timothy Geraghty, who foresaw the disaster in Beirut, but whom Reagan would later blame for it. More than thirty-five years later, America continues to wrestle with Lebanon, the Marines with the legacy of the Beirut bombing, and all of us with the threat of Mideast terror that the attack furthered. When Reagan Sent In The Marines is about a historical moment, but one that remains all too present today.

Download or read book International Law in the US Legal System written by Curtis A. Bradley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Law in the U.S. Legal System provides a wide-ranging overview of how international law intersects with the domestic legal system of the United States, and points out various unresolved issues and areas of controversy. Curtis Bradley explains the structure of the U.S. legal system and the various separation of powers and federalism considerations implicated by this structure, especially as these considerations relate to the conduct of foreign affairs. Against this backdrop, he covers all of the principal forms of international law: treaties, executive agreements, decisions and orders of international institutions, customary international law, and jus cogens norms. He also explores a number of issues that are implicated by the intersection of U.S. law and international law, such as treaty withdrawal, foreign sovereign immunity, international human rights litigation, war powers, extradition, and extraterritoriality. This book highlights recent decisions and events relating to the topic, including various actions taken during the Trump administration, while also taking into account relevant historical materials, including materials relating to the U.S. Constitutional founding. Written by one of the most cited international law scholars in the United States, the book is a resource for lawyers, law students, legal scholars, and judges from around the world.
