Abstract

This article examines the legal and geopolitical implications of South Africa's unprecedented lawsuit against Israel for genocide in Gaza, brought before the International Court of Justice (ICJ). The conflict stems from longstanding tensions between Israel and Palestine, exacerbated during the October 7, 2023 crisis. South Africa's legal action alleges Israel's actions and omissions in Gaza constitute genocide under the 1948 Genocide Convention, citing evidence of extensive civilian casualties, particularly women and children. Israel, however, denies the accusations, attributing civilian deaths to Hamas and asserting its right to self-defense against rocket attacks. The ICJ's role as a peaceful dispute resolution forum is highlighted, emphasizing its authority to adjudicate disputes between nations and provide legal opinions. The research employs a normative legal approach, analyzing international law principles and regulations, using a case study methodology to explore the legal complexities of the case qualitatively. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the legal mechanisms governing international disputes and the potential impact of legal proceedings on conflict dynamics.

Abstract

The United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) Working Group III (WG III) has been meeting intensively to formulate comprehensive reforms to Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) based on emerging criticisms. In July 2017, UNCITRAL established Working Group III with a mandate to identify and evaluate ISDS-related concerns, consider the need or desirability of reforms, and develop relevant solutions. Some of the issues that have been identified in relation to the current ISDS mechanism include lack of consistency and predictability of arbitral awards by ISDS forums, lack of independence and impartiality of arbitrators, cost and duration of proceedings, and third-party financing. The WG III forum has formulated several options to address these issues: 1) establishment of a court mechanism, 2) appointment of arbitrators and adjudicators, 3) parties' involvement and control, 4) dispute prevention and mitigation: strengthening dispute prevention and mitigation mechanisms, 5) cost management and third-party financing transparency: efforts to manage costs and related procedures, as well as transparency in third-party financing. The findings indicate that Indonesia actively participates in WG III by advocating for balanced reforms that safeguard state sovereignty and public interest while addressing investor rights. Key recommendations include enhancing transparency and leveraging regional alliances to strengthen Indonesia’s position in international investment frameworks.

Abstract

Nationality deprivation has become a tool of political repression, undermining fundamental human rights and rendering individuals stateless. In the United Arab Emirates, the government increasingly uses nationality deprivation to silence political dissidents, raising concerns about compliance with international legal standards. This research examines the UAE’s nationality deprivation policies in light of international human rights law and explores the potential of actio popularis as a legal mechanism for holding states accountable. Using a normative legal analysis, the paper evaluates the UAE’s practices against key international treaties, including the Arab Charter on Human Rights and the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness. It also assesses the relevance of actio popularis, erga omnes, and erga omnes partes principles in enabling states to challenge human rights violations affecting collective international interests. Drawing on recent case law, such as The Gambia v. Myanmar, this research explores how states may invoke these doctrines before international courts. The findings indicate that the UAE’s nationality deprivation practices violate key principles of proportionality and non-arbitrariness under international law, contributing to statelessness and severe human rights abuses. This research underscores the evolving role of actio popularis in international accountability and advocates for its broader application in nationality deprivation cases. Strengthening international safeguards against arbitrary nationality deprivation is essential for ensuring legal protection and preventing the misuse of citizenship laws as a tool of repression.

Abstract

Transnational environmental crimes are among the most complex and destructive forms of cross-border criminality, including wildlife trafficking, illegal trade of endangered species, transboundary pollution, and unlawful exploitation of natural resources by state and non-state actors. These offenses have yet to gain explicit recognition as core international crimes, despite their severe impacts on ecosystems, geopolitical stability, and local communities. This article examines the urgent need to incorporate transnational environmental crimes into international criminal law and emphasizes a victim-centered environmental justice approach to restore the rights and sustainability of affected communities. Using normative and comparative legal analysis, it advocates recognizing ecocide and cross-border environmental offenses as serious violations of ecological justice and human rights. The study further explores how victim protection frameworks can extend to Indigenous communities, future generations, and non-human entities, offering guidance for Indonesia in building a more responsive, transnational, and victim-oriented environmental criminal justice system.

Abstract

The intersection between trade and environmental issues has become an unavoidable reality in the contemporary global landscape. The WTO, as the foremost global trade body, integrates elements of sustainable development across several of its legal frameworks. This study seeks to explore the presence and evolution of environmental measures within the framework of the WTO. This research further examines the practical recognition of environmental measures within international trade contexts. Through normative research and comparative case studies of state disputes in WTO’ Dispute Settlement Body, this study identifies a growing trend in the use of environmental measures within WTO legal frameworks. The findings indicate that environmental measures possess a degree of legitimacy and are generally well-received by the WTO dispute settlement mechanism. Ambitious emission targets set by developed countries have contributed to the development of novel types of environmental measures.This indicates that the interconnection between trade and environmental concerns will continue to strengthen over time. Hence, ensuring a well-calibrated balance between trade obligations and environmental considerations requires the panel or Appellate Body to proceed with heightened prudence..

Abstract

The globalization of trade has elevated Islamic halal standards within the domain of international economic law. While halal certification is rooted in Sharia, World Trade Organization (WTO) law is governed by secular principles, including non-discrimination, Most-Favored Nation (MFN) treatment, and national treatment. This article conducts a comparative legal analysis of the potential tensions and compatibilities between these normative systems. Drawing on doctrinal and comparative methods, it examines how halal regulations in Muslim-majority and non-Muslim countries interact with WTO rules, particularly the SPS Agreement, TBT Agreement, and GATT 1994. The study argues that halal requirements, while potentially constituting non-tariff barriers, can be justified under WTO exceptions when aligned with legitimate objectives such as public morals and consumer protection. It also highlights the risk of discriminatory treatment when certification is applied selectively or instrumentally. The paper concludes with normative recommendations to reconcile Sharia-based halal frameworks with global trade norms, emphasizing mutual recognition, standard harmonization, and dialogue between religious and secular legal systems.

Abstract

The global climate crisis demands enforceable legal frameworks to hold high-emission corporations accountable. Nigeria, Africa’s largest economy and a major oil producer, remains hampered by fragmented laws, weak enforcement, and regulatory gaps. This paper compares Nigeria’s framework with South Africa’s carbon tax regime and the UK’s integration of climate risk into corporate governance, showing that effective accountability requires binding, economically significant obligations. Key deficiencies in Nigeria include oil and gas sector exemptions, non-justiciable environmental rights, the absence of a functional carbon tax, and discretionary corporate climate duties. Achieving national climate goals requires a shift from permissive regulation to strict, enforceable compliance.

Abstract

The Responsibility to Protect (R2P) is an international law principle that affirms the obligation of the international community to protect populations from genocide, crimes against humanity, and other mass atrocities. The Rohingya crisis in Myanmar highlights the persistent tension between R2P and state sovereignty. This article analyzes that tension by examining the challenges of implementing R2P in Myanmar, where the government has consistently rejected foreign intervention. Using a conceptual analysis and a case research of the Rohingya refugee crisis, the research explores how sovereignty claims and regional norms, particularly ASEAN’s principle of non-interference, constrain international responses. The findings show that although R2P provides a normative framework for addressing gross human rights violations, its implementation in Myanmar has been hindered by state resistance and regional political dynamics. This article contributes to debates on international justice and sovereignty by offering insights into the limitations and potential pathways for more effective R2P implementation within the ASEAN context.
