Digital open-source evidence has become ubiquitous in the context of modern conflicts, leading to an evolution in investigative practices within the context of mass atrocity crimes and international criminal law. Despite its extensive promulgation, international criminal tribunals have had few opportunities to address the admissibility of user-generated open-source evidence. Through semi-structured interviews with experts and analyses of primary and secondary sources, this article examines the current standards and practices governing the use of user-generated open-source evidence. Current practices illuminate a number of gaps in the realm of digital open-source evidence in international criminal law. This article posits the establishment of a standing international, investigative mechanism as a solution to a need for increased standardization and co-ordination within the realm of user-generated open-source evidence. By standardizing the collection and use of such evidence, investigative bodies will be prepared to more effectively serve the international justice community.
数字开源证据在现代冲突背景下变得无处不在,导致大规模暴行犯罪和国际刑法背景下调查实践的演变。尽管广泛颁布,但国际刑事法庭很少有机会处理用户提供的开源证据的可采性问题。通过对专家的半结构化访谈和对主要和次要来源的分析,本文考察了管理用户生成的开源证据使用的当前标准和实践。目前的做法说明了国际刑法中数字开源证据领域的一些空白。本文假定建立一个常设的国际调查机制,作为在用户生成的开源证据领域内增加标准化和协调需求的解决方案。通过使这些证据的收集和使用标准化,调查机构将做好准备,更有效地为国际司法界服务。

Sisyphus in robes: International law, legal interpretation and the absurd 穿长袍的西西弗斯:国际法,法律解释和荒谬

Legal systems across the world contain the obligation to prevent ‘absurd interpretations’ of law. In international law, an instruction to avoid ‘manifestly absurd’ interpretations can be found in Article 32 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties. This gives rise to at least two questions that I will take up in this article. First, what is meant by the ‘absurd’ that is to be avoided in legal interpretation. The short answer to this question is: no one knows exactly. The absurd, by its very nature, resists definition in pre-given categories, as I will argue on the basis of four core thinkers on the absurd: Søren Kierkegaard, Jean-Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, and Thomas Nagel. The second question is more technical and easier to answer: how should lawyers try to avoid absurd interpretations? Here, I turn to absurdist writing and the theatre of the absurd for assistance. Absurdist writing and theatre have developed a number of techniques to make the absurd appear, to let the audience experience that something is fundamentally out of tune. Lawyers use similar techniques, but in reverse and with an opposite purpose: they add exposition, narrative, reasonable language, and stable, rational legal personae. In this way, they boost the rationality and reasonableness of the legal order. However, to come full circle, it is exactly the pretension of rationality and reasonableness that makes the law vulnerable to manifestations of the absurd. The rationality of law is the springboard for the very same absurdity it tries to suppress.
世界各地的法律体系都有义务防止对法律的“荒谬解释”。在国际法中,可以在《维也纳条约法公约》第32条中找到避免“明显荒谬”解释的指示。这就引出了我将在本文中讨论的至少两个问题。首先,法律解释中应避免的“荒谬”是什么意思。这个问题的简短答案是:没有人确切知道。荒谬,就其本质而言,拒绝在预先给定的类别中定义,正如我将在四位关于荒谬的核心思想家的基础上争论的那样:瑟伦·克尔凯郭尔、让-保罗·萨特、阿尔伯特·加缪和托马斯·纳格尔。第二个问题更具技术性,也更容易回答:律师应该如何避免荒谬的解释?在这里,我转向荒诞派写作和荒诞派戏剧寻求帮助。荒诞派写作和戏剧已经发展出了许多技巧来让荒诞出现,让观众体验到某种根本不合拍的东西。律师使用类似的技巧,但反过来,目的相反:他们添加了阐述、叙述、合理的语言和稳定、理性的法律人物。通过这种方式,他们提升了法律秩序的合理性和合理性。然而,回到原点,正是理性和合理性的伪装使法律容易受到荒谬的表现。法律的合理性是它试图压制的荒谬性的跳板。

Treaty amendments constitute a critical but under-researched aspect of international law. In this article, we present a comprehensive survey of 491 amendment procedures across 691 multilateral environmental agreements. We use this data collection to build a typology of amendment procedures based on various combinations of control, adaptability, and flexibility. We introduce the property space reduction method as a valuable tool for building typology and analysing international law. We find a clear trend towards the inclusion of amendment procedures, which makes treaties increasingly adaptable. This adaptability is generally coupled with flexibility to avoid infringing on consent. As a result, amended treaties risk being increasingly fragmented into differentiated bundles of obligations split among subsets of members. We also examine how key features of treaty membership, such as power distribution, correlate with the occurrence and types of amendment procedures.
条约修正案是国际法的一个关键但研究不足的方面。在这篇文章中,我们对691项多边环境协定中的491项修正程序进行了全面调查。我们利用这些数据收集建立了一个基于控制、适应性和灵活性的各种组合的修正程序类型。我们介绍了房地产空间缩减法,它是建筑类型学和分析国际法的一个有价值的工具。我们发现一个明显的趋势是纳入修正程序,这使条约的适应性越来越强。这种适应性通常与灵活性相结合,以避免侵犯同意。因此,经修正的条约有可能越来越多地分散成不同的义务束,在成员国的子集之间分配。我们还研究了条约成员国的关键特征,如权力分配,如何与修正程序的发生和类型相关联。

In someone else’s words: Judicial borrowing and the semantic authority of the African Court of Human and Peoples’ Rights 用别人的话说:司法借用和非洲人权和人民权利法院的语义权威
IF 1.5 2区 社会学 Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2023-08-07 DOI: 10.1017/s0922156523000365

Since its first judgment on the merits in 2013, the African Court of Human and Peoples’ Rights (the African Court or ACtHPR) jurisprudence has bourgeoned. In building this jurisprudence, the African Court has borrowed significantly from the case law of the European Court of Human Rights and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. This article empirically maps judicial borrowing in the jurisprudence of the African Court and connects this practice to the theoretical framing of the semantic authority of interpretive actors in international law. The article argues that judicial borrowing allows the African Court to borrow the semantic authority of these more established actors in the field of international human rights law. The practice has allowed the Court to boost its interpretive claims. The article posits that the Court is simultaneously internalizing external references: it transforms them into an internal part of its jurisprudence. Therefore, the African Court is transforming what was initially the semantic authority of its homologues in Strasbourg and San José, into assertions of its own semantic authority. This transformation allows the Court to assert itself as the central authority for the interpretation of human rights in Africa. These findings shed new light onto wider scholarly debates on the characteristics of African human rights jurisprudence in the field of international human rights law.
自2013年首个是非曲实判决以来,非洲人权和人民权利法院(非洲法院或ACtHPR)的法理学得到了蓬勃发展。在建立这一判例时,非洲法院大量借鉴了欧洲人权法院和美洲人权法院的判例法。本文从经验上描绘了非洲法院法理学中的司法借用,并将这一实践与国际法中解释行为者语义权威的理论框架联系起来。文章认为,司法借用允许非洲法院借用这些在国际人权法领域更为成熟的行动者的语义权威。这种做法使法院得以加强其解释性主张。这篇文章认为,法院同时在内化外部参考:它将它们转化为其法理的内部部分。因此,非洲法院正在将其最初在斯特拉斯堡和圣何塞的同系物的语义权威转化为自己的语义权威的主张。这种转变使法院能够宣称自己是解释非洲人权的中心权威。这些发现为关于非洲人权法学在国际人权法领域的特点的更广泛的学术辩论提供了新的线索。

Conceptualizing legal change as ‘norm-knitting’ through the example of the environmental human right 以环境人权为例,将法律变革概念化为“规范编织”

Understanding law as a continuous process with circular and interacting phases of selection, construction, and reception makes it possible to account for the variety of actors and resources implicated in the process of incrementally changing a norm of international law. This process is visualized through an analogy to knitting. One can start the knitting project with one needle, but to actually construct anything, more than one needle is necessary: at least two actors need to collaborate and build upon each other’s work. If those two actors neatly agree upon the pattern to be knitted, the resulting product may be uniform and dense, able to cover all situations it is intended for. However, it is not that easy to knit in exactly the same pace and pattern. The constructed law may not fit perfectly all situations it is intended for, because the different actors may have had different patterns in their head. Also, sometimes, the wool is held too tightly, and the net becomes too dense; sometimes the wool is held too loosely, and the net will have holes. With this visualization in mind, we can think of legal changes as continuously intermingling and building upon each other: international law is generally knitted with different colours of wool, each colour representing a different normative resource. Thus, ‘norm knitting’ provides for an analytical tool that makes it possible to demonstrate the variety in ‘successful’ change of a given norm in international law in response to specific challenges which the actors face.
将法律理解为一个连续的过程,包括选择、构建和接受的循环和相互作用的阶段,从而有可能解释逐步改变国际法规范过程中涉及的各种行为者和资源。这一过程通过与编织的类比而显现出来。一个人可以用一根针开始编织项目,但要真正构建任何东西,都需要不止一根针:至少需要两个参与者合作,并在彼此的工作基础上再接再厉。如果这两个参与者巧妙地就要编织的图案达成一致,那么所产生的产品可能是均匀和致密的,能够覆盖其预期的所有情况。然而,要以完全相同的速度和图案进行编织并不是那么容易。构建的法律可能并不完全适合它所针对的所有情况,因为不同的参与者可能有不同的头脑模式。此外,有时,羊毛被抓得太紧,网变得太密;有时羊毛抓得太松,网就会破洞。考虑到这一点,我们可以将法律变化视为不断相互交织和发展:国际法通常由不同颜色的羊毛编织而成,每种颜色代表不同的规范资源。因此,“规范编织”提供了一种分析工具,可以证明国际法中某一特定规范在应对行为体面临的具体挑战时“成功”改变的多样性。

Methodology of identifying customary international law applicable to cyber activities 确定适用于网络活动的习惯国际法的方法

What is striking about recent scholarship on the application of customary international law to cyber activities is how little has been dedicated to the preliminary question of how one identifies the applicability of existing rules of customary international law to cyber operations. Yet, the answer to this preliminary question holds the key to answering many of the questions which arise regarding whether existing rules of customary international law apply to cyber activities. This article seeks to answer the preliminary question. After providing background on the nature of customary international law, and in light of recent scholarly trends and what is often implied in literature on cyber activities, it makes the argument that rules of customary international law are not interpretable. Accordingly, reference must be made to state practice accepted as law for the purpose of identifying applicable customary international law; the article provides guidance on how this should be done. For a precedent of state practice to be relevant to determining the existence of a customary rule applicable to a cyber activity, pursuant to the International Court’s jurisprudence, the precedent must not have significant distinguishing features from the cyber activity concerned. For determining whether a precedent of opinio juris recognizes the existence of a customary rule applicable to the cyber activity, it is necessary to determine whether the relevant state pronouncement intended to accept as law a rule applicable thereto. In anticipation of objections, the article also addresses the practicability of the approach laid out.
最近关于习惯国际法适用于网络活动的学术研究令人震惊的是,很少有人专门研究如何确定习惯国际法现有规则适用于网络行动的初步问题。然而,这个初步问题的答案是回答许多问题的关键,这些问题涉及习惯国际法的现行规则是否适用于网络活动。本文试图回答初步问题。在提供了习惯国际法性质的背景后,并根据最近的学术趋势和网络活动文献中经常隐含的内容,提出了习惯国际法律规则不可解释的论点。因此,为了确定适用的习惯国际法,必须参考被公认为法律的国家惯例;这篇文章为如何做到这一点提供了指导。根据国际法院的判例,国家实践的先例与确定是否存在适用于网络活动的习惯规则有关,该先例不得与有关网络活动有显著区别。为了确定法律确信的先例是否承认适用于网络活动的习惯规则的存在,有必要确定相关国家声明是否打算将适用于该活动的规则接受为法律。在预计会有反对意见的情况下,该条还谈到了所制定的方法的实用性。

While many international lawyers are familiar with Francisco de Vitoria (1483–1546), very few have even heard of Paulus Vladimiri (1370–1435) – a Polish priest and jurist who made striking similar arguments to Vitoria on legal universality and the rights of non-Christians a full century before Vitoria. This divergence of consciousness, I argue, provides a unique opportunity to explore questions of canon, reception, and the role of ‘founding fathers’ within international legal thought. Centring Vladimiri as an ‘Eastern European’ figure, I argue that his non-reception is largely the result of how Eastern Europe implicitly functions as a distinctly liminal space within international legal thought that makes any possible ‘founding father’ from this region immensely difficult to imagine. I examine this dynamic through the differing postwar efforts of the Polish jurists Kazimierz Grzybowski and C. H. Alexandrowicz to include Vladimiri within the international legal canon. In examining the background structures of twentieth-century international law, I conclude that, in a manner directly connected to the liminality of Eastern Europe, neither Soviet nor Third World nor Western imaginations could easily receive Vladimiri within their fundamentally political narratives of normative order that shaped their international legal approaches. However, despite this historic non-reception, I argue that Vladimiri, and the question of Eastern Europe more generally, holds great promise in our current global moment. Particularly, engaging Eastern Europe’s liminal character offers a more sociologically grounded alternative to the reductionist Schmittian view of international law as a product of inescapable conflict in a world of exclusionary ‘greater spaces’.
虽然许多国际律师都熟悉弗朗西斯科·德·维托里亚(1483-1546),但很少有人听说过波卢斯·弗拉迪米里(1370-1435),他是一位波兰牧师和法学家,在维托里亚之前整整一个世纪,他就法律普遍性和非基督徒权利问题与维托里亚提出了惊人的类似论点。我认为,这种意识的分歧为探索正典、接受和“开国元勋”在国际法律思想中的作用等问题提供了一个独特的机会。以弗拉迪米里为中心,我认为,他的不受欢迎在很大程度上是因为东欧在国际法律思想中隐含着一个明显的边缘空间,这使得来自该地区的任何可能的“开国元勋”都难以想象。我通过波兰法学家卡齐米日·格日博夫斯基(Kazimierz Grzybowski)和C·H·亚历山德罗维奇(C.H.Alexandrowicz)在战后为将弗拉迪米里纳入国际法律准则所做的不同努力来审视这一动态。在研究二十世纪国际法的背景结构时,我得出的结论是,以一种与东欧的边缘直接相关的方式,无论是苏联、第三世界还是西方的想象,都无法轻易地将弗拉迪米里纳入其规范秩序的根本政治叙事中,而规范秩序塑造了他们的国际法律方法。然而,尽管有这种历史性的不接受,我认为弗拉迪米里,以及更广泛的东欧问题,在我们当前的全球时刻有着巨大的希望。特别是,让东欧的边缘人物参与进来,提供了一种更具社会学基础的替代方案,以取代简化主义的施米特主义观点,即国际法是排斥性“更大空间”世界中不可避免的冲突的产物。
