The United States and United Kingdom have carried out a series of strikes upon Yemeni territory since January 2024. The acting States have justified these on the basis of the right of self-defence in response to the series of attacks that have been perpetrated by the Houthi group in Yemen against various commercial and military vessels in the Red Sea. On the face of it this was a relatively straightforward justification. Yet, when subjected to analysis it becomes evident that not only is the justification itself not clear, but that the law governing the actions—the jus ad bellum—is not sufficiently settled to provide clear parameters by which to assess the legality of the strikes. Furthermore, the strikes themselves, and the purposes for which they were undertaken, may have set a precedent with unforeseeable consequences.
自 2024 年 1 月以来,美国和联合王国对也门领土进行了一系列打击。针对也门胡塞团体在红海对各种商业和军事船只发动的一系列袭击,行动国以自卫权为由进行了辩解。从表面上看,这是一个相对简单的理由。然而,经过分析就会发现,不仅理由本身不明确,而且规范这些行动的法律--诉诸战争权--也没有得到充分解决,无法提供明确的参数来评估打击行动的合法性。此外,打击行动本身及其目的可能开创了一个先例,造成了不可预见的后果。

VOTING PROTOCOLS AS INFORMAL JUDICIAL INSTITUTIONS: THE POLITICS OF ENFORCEABILITY AND STRATEGIC BREACHING 作为非正式司法机构的投票协议:可执行性和战略性违反的政治

Constitutional courts operate under a framework of formal and informal rules. While formal rules have been extensively studied, our understanding of informal rules remains limited. Courts often rely on internal practices, traditions and unwritten customs developed over time, posing a significant challenge due to their hidden nature. Numerous constitutional courts lack detailed voting protocols in their statutes and internal regulations, leaving essential aspects to the court's discretion, such as, inter alia, the voting order, deliberation style, outcome versus issue voting and tie-breaking protocols. By employing a case study of strategic breaching of informal voting protocols in the Mexican Supreme Court, this article highlights the complexity of enforcing informal voting rules given that external actors may be unaware of them, along with other factors. Even when informal rules are broadly known, certain circumstances may diminish the efficacy of informal sanctions addressing their breach. Thus, key judicial players, such as chief justices or judge-rapporteurs, may take advantage of the informal rules of voting protocols to advance their policy preferences.
宪法法院在正式和非正式规则的框架下运作。虽然对正式规则进行了广泛研究,但我们对非正式规则的了解仍然有限。法院通常依赖于长期形成的内部惯例、传统和不成文的习俗,由于其隐蔽性,这构成了巨大的挑战。许多宪法法院在其章程和内部条例中缺乏详细的表决规程,将一些重要方面交由法院自行决定,如表决顺序、审议方式、结果表决与议题表决以及打破平局的规程等。本文通过对墨西哥最高法院策略性违反非正式表决规程的案例研究,强调了执行非正式表决规则的复杂性,因为外部行为者可能不了解这些规则,还有其他因素。即使非正式规则广为人知,某些情况也会削弱非正式制裁对违反规则行为的效力。因此,司法界的关键人物,如首席法官或法官报告员,可能会利用投票规程的非正式规则来推动其政策偏好。

IN PURSUIT OF A TREATY'S SOUL: A STUDY OF THE OBJECT AND PURPOSE OF THE FOURTH GENEVA CONVENTION 追求条约的灵魂:对第四项日内瓦公约的目标和宗旨的研究

The Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War provides a practical and effective framework for the protection of civilians in international armed conflicts that has retained its relevance for 75 years since its adoption. As with all treaties, its ‘object and purpose’ has a concrete impact on how its terms are interpreted, giving insights into the ordinary meaning of the text and allowing the aim of the Convention to be fully realized. This article asks and answers a series of questions to elucidate the role of the object and purpose in treaty interpretation and how to identify the object and purpose of a given treaty before focusing on the specificities of international humanitarian law treaties. On that basis, it determines that the overall ‘object and purpose’ of the Convention is to protect civilians during armed conflict, including in circumstances where they are subject to permissible measures of control and security. The article then demonstrates how that ‘object and purpose’ assists with the resolution of specific, well-known interpretive dilemmas including the determination of protected status under the Convention and the application of provisions premised on the existence of a Protecting Power.
关于战时保护平民之日内瓦公约》为在国际武装冲突中保护平民提供了一个切实有效的框架,自通过以来的 75 年中一直保持着其相关性。与所有条约一样,《公约》的 "目标和宗旨 "对如何解释其条款具有具体影响,使人们深入了解文本的普通含义,并充分实现《公约》的宗旨。本文提出并回答了一系列问题,以阐明目的和宗旨在条约解释中的作用,以及如何确定特定条约的目的和宗旨,然后重点讨论国际人道法条约的特殊性。在此基础上,文章确定《公约》的总体 "目标和宗旨 "是在武装冲突期间保护平民,包括在平民受到可允许的控制和安全措施的情况下。然后,文章说明了 "目标和宗旨 "如何帮助解决众所周知的具体解释难题,包括确定《公约》规定的受保护地位和适用以保护国的存在为前提的条款。

In 2023, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) launched an updated version of the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises on Responsible Business Conduct. The changes represent substantial and potentially far-reaching implications for business, particularly in the areas of climate change and biodiversity. This article examines the 14 climate-related complaints filed under the Guidelines prior to the adoption of the 2023 Update, showing how many of these cases illustrate the potential interlinkages between the human rights and climate change dimensions of the Guidelines. The article then discusses how the updated provisions may influence future complaints concerning climate change. Based on this analysis, the article concludes that the Guidelines could have been strengthened by the explicit integration of climate change into the scope of corporate human rights responsibilities under the Guidelines.
2023 年,经济合作与发展组织(OECD)推出了最新版的《经合组织跨国企业负责任商业行为准则》。这些变化对企业,尤其是气候变化和生物多样性领域的企业,具有重大且潜在的深远影响。本文研究了在 2023 年更新版通过之前,根据《准则》提出的 14 起与气候有关的投诉,说明其中许多案例说明了《准则》在人权和气候变化方面可能存在的相互联系。文章随后讨论了更新后的条款如何影响未来有关气候变化的申诉。根据这一分析,文章得出结论,将气候变化明确纳入《准则》规定的公司人权责任范围,本可加强《准则》。

FROM FEMALE MORALITY TO HUMAN DIGNITY: AN EVOLUTIVE INTERPRETATION OF ‘HONOUR’ UNDER ARTICLE 27(2) OF THE FOURTH GENEVA CONVENTION 从女性道德到人的尊严:《第四项日内瓦公约》第 27(2)条对 "荣誉 "的演变解释

This article suggests a new interpretative framework for Article 27(2) of the Fourth Geneva Convention, which prohibits sexual violence against women in armed conflict. One specific aspect of this norm is particularly controversial: the notion of ‘honour’ has often been criticised as an obsolete concept linked to an outdated view of female morality. In the absence of a definition of the term, this article examines whether the gendered limitations of the norm can be overcome and the extent to which an evolutive interpretation of the concept is feasible. It argues that the concept of ‘honour’ can be treated as a generic term that is subject to evolutive interpretation, allowing for a renewed and gender-sensitive understanding to be developed, aligned with the concept of human dignity.
本文为《日内瓦第四公约》第 27(2)条提出了一个新的解释框架,该条禁止在武装冲突中对妇女实施性暴力。该准则的一个具体方面尤其具有争议性:"荣誉 "概念经常被批评为与过时的女性道德观相关的过时概念。在缺乏对这一术语的定义的情况下,本文探讨了这一准则的性别局限性是否可以克服,以及对这一概念的进化解释在多大程度上是可行的。文章认为,可以将 "荣誉 "概念作为一个通用术语,对其进行进化性解释,从而形成一种与人类尊严概念相一致的、对性别问题有敏感认识的新理解。

This article analyses the challenges that online marketplaces and e-commerce pose to traditional product liability doctrines. It uses a comparative perspective to examine whether an online platform can be liable to a consumer for a defective product purchased on its platform, and the adaption of product liability law to this challenge in a series of jurisdictions. It reflects on the role of litigation and regulation, focusing on Europe and the United States, and considers reform in a number of jurisdictions in this area. It concludes with proposals for increasing the accountability of online marketplaces for products sold on their websites.

JUSTICE IN THE LIMINAL: THE COUNCIL OF EUROPE AND THE RIGHT TO A HEALTHY ENVIRONMENT 边缘的正义:欧洲委员会与健康环境权

Corina Heri
As the human right to a healthy environment is codified around the globe, some systems still lag behind. One noticeable straggler is the Council of Europe, which is currently undergoing its fourth attempt to recognize the right. This article examines the proposals tabled within this system in light of overarching debates about climate justice and environmental rights, before focusing specifically on the spatial and temporal limits of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and the institutional features of its Court. First, the article describes what the author sees as the current liminal moment in the development of human rights law, a time of transition in which established legal concepts can be questioned or reaffirmed. Second, it sketches recent proposals for locating and conceptualizing the right to a healthy environment within the Council of Europe. Evaluating different options, it makes the case for including this right in the ECHR. Third, the article discusses the right's potential to reshape the spatial and temporal limitations on legal subjectivity and Convention protections. These proposals come at a crucial time when the system's ability to protect human rights from environment-related impacts is being tested by climate litigation. The article understands these developments as interrelated and discusses whether current proposals could deliver on demands for climate justice by extending protection to future generations and for extraterritorial environmental impacts.
随着全球各地将享有健康环境的人权编纂成法律,一些制度仍然落在后面。其中一个明显的落后者是欧洲委员会,该委员会目前正在第四次尝试承认这一权利。本文根据有关气候正义和环境权利的总体辩论,对该体系内提出的建议进行了研究,然后特别关注了《欧洲人权公约》(ECHR)的空间和时间限制及其法院的制度特征。首先,文章描述了作者所认为的当前人权法发展的边缘时刻,在这一过渡时期,既有的法律概念可能受到质疑,也可能得到重申。其次,文章概述了最近关于在欧洲委员会内确定健康环境权的位置和概念的建议。通过对不同方案的评估,文章提出了将这一权利纳入《欧洲人权公约》的理由。第三,文章讨论了该权利重塑法律主体性和公约保护的空间和时间限制的潜力。这些建议的提出正值气候诉讼考验该体系保护人权免受环境相关影响的能力的关键时刻。文章认为这些发展是相互关联的,并讨论了目前的建议是否可以通过将保护范围扩大到后代和域外环境影响来满足气候正义的要求。

This article conducts an analytical review of the works of three prominent Thai comparative law professors: Professor Preedee Kasemsup, Professor Phijaisakdi Horayangkura and Professor Sanunkorn Sotthibandhu. Although influential in Thailand, their works are mostly in Thai and therefore have received little academic attention outside the kingdom. The authors argue that the works of these scholars have the potential to shine new light on comparative law theory and bring voices from the Global South to add fresh perspectives and contexts to a discipline dominated by scholars from the Global North. Moreover, this examination highlights the challenges that comparative law faces in freeing itself from this hegemony when using internally developed concepts and modes of questioning.

本文对泰国三位著名比较法教授的著作进行了分析评述:Preedee Kasemsup 教授、Phijaisakdi Horayangkura 教授和 Sanunkorn Sotthibandhu 教授。虽然他们的著作在泰国很有影响力,但大多使用泰语,因此在泰国境外很少受到学术界的关注。作者认为,这些学者的著作有可能为比较法理论带来新的启示,并为这一由全球北方学者主导的学科带来来自全球南方的声音,增添新的视角和背景。此外,这项研究还强调了比较法在使用内部形成的概念和提问模式时,在摆脱这种霸权方面所面临的挑战。

THE ‘HIGHEST POSSIBLE AMBITION’ ON CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION AS A LEGAL STANDARD 将减缓气候变化的 "尽可能高的目标 "作为法律标准

The Parties to the Paris Agreement have committed to communicate successive ‘nationally determined contributions’ (NDCs) to the global response to climate change. Each NDC is expected to reflect the Party's ‘highest possible ambition’ (HPA) on the mitigation of climate change. This article envisages the possibility of taking HPA seriously: that is, of approaching it as an effective legal standard. It shows that, in some circumstances, the HPA standard can help to assess whether a State has complied with due diligence obligations on climate change mitigation.

巴黎协定》缔约方已承诺为全球应对气候变化做出连续的 "本国决定的贡献"(NDCs)。每份国家发展承诺都应反映缔约方在减缓气候变化方面的 "尽可能高的目标"(HPA)。本文设想了认真对待 HPA 的可能性:即把它作为一个有效的法律标准。它表明,在某些情况下,HPA 标准有助于评估一个国家是否履行了减缓气候变化的尽责义务。

For societies transitioning from conflict to peace, the phenomenon of child soldiers poses significant challenges. These include quandaries associated with assisting in the reintegration of serving child soldiers, determining how to prevent future recruitment of child soldiers, and pursuing accountability of those who utilize child soldiers. In addition, questions are also raised as to whether and how child soldiers responsible for crimes committed during conflict are to be held to account. While no one mechanism or response can adequately and sufficiently address the multifaceted issues that arise, peace agreements, as foundational documents that serve as the blueprint for peacebuilding and the post-conflict State, can make a useful contribution to some or all of them. Drawing on all references to child soldiers in 77 peace agreements signed between 1990 and 2022, this article examines the ways in which peace agreements address the issue of child soldiers.
对于从冲突向和平过渡的社会而言,儿童兵现象构成了重大挑战。其中包括协助现役儿童兵重返社会、确定如何防止今后招募儿童兵以及追究利用儿童兵者的责任等难题。此外,还提出了是否以及如何追究应对冲突期间所犯罪行负责的儿童兵的问题。虽然没有任何一种机制或对策能够充分、适当地解决所出现的多方面问题,但和平协定作为建设和平和冲突后国家蓝图的基础性文件,可以对部分或全部问题做出有益的贡献。本文以 1990 年至 2022 年间签署的 77 项和平协定中所有提及儿童兵的内容为基础,探讨了和平协定解决儿童兵问题的方式。
