In the case of Bryan Kohberger (case number CR29-22-2805), the defense has filed multiple motions, including one to strike the State's notice of intent to seek the death penalty. This motion argues that pursuing the death penalty violates contemporary standards of decency, citing international law, vagueness in Idaho's capital punishment laws, and issues with the aggravating factors presented by the prosecution. The defense is challenging each of the state's claims, aiming to have the death penalty removed as an option in the trial.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:090524-Motion-Strike-States-Notice-Intent-Seek-Death-Penalty-Grounds-Contemporary.pdf

Stewart Alsop sits down with Juan Verhook, founder of Tender Market, for a second conversation that ranges from the mechanics of European public tenders to the future of how we organize digital information. They cover how Tender Market helps smaller companies work around barriers like SOC 2 and ISO certification requirements, the surprising scale of public procurement (roughly 20% of GDP), and how AI and machine learning are reshaping the bidding process. From there the conversation opens up into bigger territory: the changing tolerance for being wrong in an AI-saturated information landscape, how language and culture shape perception, the reverse Turing test and the challenge of verifying human versus AI identity online, and Juan's daily workflow running eight or nine MCP servers through Claude Code. They close out talking about whether the folder and file system will survive the shift to AI-native interfaces, tying back to Stewart's own Stewart Squared episodes on the history of the PC. You can visit Tender Market at tendermarket.eu.Timestamps05:00 — Tender Market's origin story and how they help smaller companies work around SOC 2 and ISO certificate barriers.10:00 — Public procurement and its scale, roughly 20% of GDP, plus a look at public-private partnerships.15:00 — Local LLMs on a plane with no Wi-Fi, and comparing local model performance to frontier models.20:00 — Supply versus demand in AI infrastructure and whether hyperscaler token efficiency is quietly improving.25:00 — Whether AI will replace knowledge work tasks, and the shifting reality of what lawyers and other professionals actually do.30:00 — Reverse Turing test, digital identity verification, and the idea of a "pre-AI internet."35:00 — Model poisoning, RLHF, and the difference between pretraining and post-training.40:00 — Interleaved tool calling and how Tender Market ties pricing to task deliverables instead of billable hours.45:00 — RAG versus fine-tuning, prompt engineering, and when context windows actually matter.50:00 — Deterministic programming versus probabilistic agents, and when to build custom tools versus buy existing ones.55:00 — Juan's daily MCP stack (Supabase, GitHub, Calendly, CRM), and whether the folder-and-file system will survive the shift to AI-native interfaces.Key InsightsCertification requirements aren't dead ends—they're routing problems. When smaller companies got rejected from tenders for lacking SOC 2 or ISO certificates, Juan didn't turn them away. He found that EU procurement rules allow bidding as a consortium or subcontracting to a certified partner, turning a disqualifier into a workaround that builds trust with clients.Public procurement is a massive, underexamined market. Roughly 20% of GDP flows through public purchasing of private-sector goods and services, yet most people have no visibility into how tenders work or how governments post and award these contracts.Being wrong has become more socially acceptable. Juan traced this shift to the falling cost of information: in the Stack Overflow era, giving a wrong answer was costly, but now that answers are instant and abundant, both mistakes and corrections happen faster, changing how people learn and communicate.Task-based pricing beats hourly billing for AI-era services. Rather than charging per hour, Tender Market prices around the deliverable, winning a tender, which avoids the perverse incentive of hourly billing to be inefficient and instead rewards actually solving the client's problem.RAG and fine-tuning solve different problems. RAG helps a model reference large documents without hitting context limits, while fine-tuning changes a model's internal weights so it learns new behavior or style. Juan noted that true RAG use cases needing thousands of pages of context are rarer than the hype suggests.Deterministic code should replace repeated LLM calls once a pattern is found. Stewart described his own workflow: solve a task with an LLM a handful of times, then convert the repeated pattern into deterministic software so tokens are no longer spent on it, freeing the model for genuinely new problems.AI agents are never truly autonomous. Both hosts agreed that no matter how many steps an agent chains together, a human operator always initiates the first prompt, meaning accountability and intent trace back to a person even in multi-agent systems.

The International Criminal Court is an independent judicial body that hears cases on individuals charged with crimes against humanity, starvation, war crimes and genocide. The Genocide Convention, which the U.S. has ratified, defines genocide as “acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group.” In November 2024, after court deliberations on Gaza, the ICC issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant as well as for a Hamas commander who was later confirmed dead. Israel denounced the ICC ruling as “absurd” and “anti-Semitic.” The U.S. response? It not only ignored the ruling but also leveled sanctions against ICC judges and lawyers. For International law to have any credibility, it must be applied equally without fear or favor. Recorded at the University of Brighton.

President Trump unveiled his Gaza deal with sweeping claims of a historic breakthrough - including the complete disarmament of Hamas and an Israeli military withdrawal. But the plan is already facing major obstacles. Israel has rejected key elements of the proposal, while deadly Israeli strikes continue across Gaza and the IDF retains control over large parts of the territory. Nearly a year after the ceasefire, around 70 per cent of Gaza's surviving population reportedly cannot return home - either because their homes are inaccessible or no longer exist. With Israel restricting the entry of heavy machinery needed to clear the rubble, the full death toll remains unknown. At the same time, Trump's vision for Gaza's redevelopment looks increasingly difficult to achieve. The political consequences are spreading beyond the Middle East. With the 2026 US midterms approaching, a new generation of Democratic politicians has made Gaza and US policy toward Israel a major issue with liberal voters. Polling suggests public opinion on Israel is shifting across party lines, while the Iran War has further damaged Trump's approval ratings. Piers Morgan is joined by political commentator and author Owen Jones, whose new book is The Fall of the West, and Newsweek senior editor-at-large Josh Hammer, to debate Trump's Gaza plan, the future of Israel and Palestine - and what it all means for the future of US politics.

The Australian government constantly talks up the international rules-based order – but its willingness to uphold the principles that underpin it is inconsistent at best. Human rights lawyer Chris Sidoti joins Dr Emma Shortis to discuss the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry’s findings of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, the Trump administration’s attacks on the institutions of international law, and how the Australian government could act in support of a genuinely rules-based international system.

Mario Oyarzábal, Member of the International Law Commission and the Legal Advisor to the Argentine Ministry of Foreign Affairs, discusses the new book International Law for Diplomats, a concise, practitioner-focused guide written to help diplomats—lawyers and non-lawyers alike—handle real-world issues like treaty negotiation, state immunities, use of force, human rights, and dispute settlement. The episode explains the book's structure around systemic issues, current issues, and practical craft, its accessible style, and the UN Legal Counsel's foreword. Its central message is that international law is not a specialist domain but diplomacy's keystone, essential for advancing state interests and reinforcing the rule of law. Mario Oyarzábal reminds us, "that international law is a toolbox for cooperation for resolving disputes peacefully, for accountability."   Resources: Ask a Librarian! Ask an Archivist!

The intersection of domestic civil rights struggles and international human rights law represents a critical frontier in the fight against systemic racism and state-sanctioned violence. The UN Human Rights Council's historic George Floyd resolution marked a watershed moment, demonstrating how international legal mechanisms can be mobilized to address persistent patterns of racial oppression within the United States. This development reflects broader questions about the relationship between legal systems and liberation, particularly when examining how the rule of law itself may function as a mechanism for perpetuating racial hierarchies rather than dismantling them. Critical race theorists have long argued that legal structures, rather than providing pathways to freedom, may actually constitute sophisticated forms of control that maintain white supremacist power relations through seemingly neutral juridical processes.Join host Professor Sahar Aziz for a powerful dual presentation featuring Professor Benjamin Davis, who examines the international legal implications of the UN Human Rights Council's response to systemic racism in America, and Professor Anthony Farley from Albany Law School, whose groundbreaking work in Critical Race Theory explores how the very foundations of law and property rights emerge from and perpetuate anti-Black violence. Professor Davis analyzes how international human rights mechanisms are finally turning their scrutiny toward American racial injustice, while Professor Farley presents his provocative thesis that legal liberation itself may be an impossibility within current juridical structures. Together, these distinguished scholars challenge listeners to confront uncomfortable truths about whether reform within existing legal frameworks can ever achieve genuine racial justice, or whether more fundamental transformations of law and society are necessary.#Racism #CRT #CriticalRaceTheory #CivilRightsBiographyAnthony Paul Farley is the James Campbell Matthews Distinguished Professor of Jurisprudence at Albany Law School, where he specializes in constitutional law, criminal procedure, and legal theory. He is a member of the American Law Institute and has served on the Board of Governors of the Society of American Law Teachers (SALT) and the Executive Committee of the Minorities Section of the Association of American Law Schools. Prior to joining Albany Law School, Professor Farley was a tenured faculty member at Boston College Law School for 16 years. Before entering academia, he served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the Office of the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia and practiced law as a Corporate/Securities Associate with Shearman and Sterling in New York City. He is a graduate of Harvard Law School and the University of Virginia.Benjamin G. Davis is Professor of Law Emeritus at the University of Toledo College of Law, where he taught public international law, contracts, and alternative dispute resolution. He holds degrees from Harvard College, Harvard Law School, and Harvard Business School. Before entering academia, Professor Davis served as American Legal Counsel at the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce in Paris, where he supervised over 1,000 international arbitration and mediation cases. He led the successful effort in the American Society of International Law to pass its Centennial Resolution on Laws of War and Detainee Treatment, only the eighth resolution in that organization's history.

In their chat, Marisa and Maggie also touched on a report released by the Victorian Commission on Children and Young People, and broke down the Northern Territory government's abolishment of key aspects of 'Child Placement Principles'.You can tune into Doin' Time every Monday 4-5pm on 3CR.// Melinda Davis, Senior Lecturer in Education at Swinburne University of Technology and former deputy principal, joined us to discuss why Victorian teachers are set to strike for the third time this year on Wednesday the 19th of August. Melinda outlined how we got here, the compounding pressure on the sector, where the Victorian Branch of the Australian Education Union's negotiations with government currently stand, and teachers' demands.// Idil and Ilo from the Centre Against Racial Profiling joined us for a conversation about the upcoming launch of 'The People's Record', a podcast about race, policing and public housing in Narrm. This incredible series tells the story of the public housing towers - the flats - focusing on the vitality and resistance of the community in the face of racialised policing and structural violence. This Saturday the 8th of August, The People's Record will be launched at IPCS, where the 6th and final episode of the show will be recorded live. The People's Record will be broadcasting daily on 3CR 855AM from the 8th of August.// Nic Seton, CEO of Parents for Climate, spoke with us about the organisation's successful push to close the Climate Active program, the adequacy of voluntary climate claims, and new mandatory climate-related financial disclosure requirements for Australian companies. Parents for Climate are a national parent advocacy organisation working to empower communities to make the climate safer for children. They have campaigned for over three years to abolish the Climate Active program, including through a landmark court case brought against EnergyAustralia, community advocacy work, and sustained investigation into greenwashing by energy companies.

Bill was a member of a small delegation of representatives who entered 1 Spring Street to bring the residents' petition to Staikos, who chose not to meet directly with residents despite being in the building at the time of the action. The Layfield Court Resident's Committee represents residents at 150 Victoria Avenue, Albert Park, an older persons' high-rise where Bill has lived for nearly 20 years.//

Thirty years ago, the People's Republic of China ratified the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. Since then, Beijing has frequently invoked UNCLOS to support its maritime claims and legal positions, while advancing interpretations of the Convention that many other states –but not all – reject.  This June the China Institute for Marine Affairs under the Ministry of Natural Resources marked the 30-year anniversary with an extensive report providing Beijing's interpretation of UNCLOS, including its account of the 2016 arbitral award that found China's expansive maritime claims in the South China Sea as lacking a legal basis under the Convention.  To examine the PRC's evolving interpretation of UNCLOS and Chinese maritime activities, and how both are being used to advance Chinese interests, I'm joined today by Dr. Peter Dutton. Peter is a Senior Research Scholar in law and senior fellow in the Paul Tsai China Center at Yale Law School. Previously, he held several positions at the U.S. Naval War College, including as director of the China Maritime Studies Institute. He served in the US Navy for more than 40 years in several capacities, including as a Judge Advocate and naval flight officer.   Timestamps:  [00:00] Introduction  [01:45] UNCLOS and China's Approach to International Law   [04:48] Favorable Interpretations of UNCLOS for China  [07:07] Unpacking Wu Shicun's Comments on Future Construction  [10:47] Capitalizing versus Defending Interests  [16:56] Potential Deterrence Options for the US and Allies  [19:14] Renegotiating the Law of the Sea Convention?   [22:45] Updated Arguments to the 2016 Ruling   [25:50] China's Strategy and Relying on Power  [29:03] Indicators and Actions to Watch For   

What if the biggest barrier to justice is not the law itself, but who can reach it?In this episode of Oxford+, part of the Ethics and Innovation miniseries sponsored by Equinox, host Susannah de Jager speaks with Professor Philippa Webb, co-founder of the Oxford Institute of Technology and Justice, about whether artificial intelligence can close the global justice gap rather than widen it. Philippa explains why only a small fraction of people who need a lawyer can access one, how her team is building legal tools for women and girls in Malawi, and why judges in Brazil and Argentina are already teaching themselves to code and building their own agents.The conversation also confronts the risks. Deepfakes are now trivially easy to produce, digital evidence is piling up unused in atrocity prosecutions, and 130 states have suffered cyber attacks. With the World Economic Forum reporting that 87% of organisations see AI-related vulnerabilities as the fastest-growing cyber risk, Philippa makes the case for legal routes to accountability, better training, and closing the perception gap that still keeps AI out of the courtroom.(00:00) - Welcome to Oxford+ (01:55) - A Career Across Academia and Practice (03:33) - Inside the Oxford Institute of Technology and Justice (06:19) - Cyber Attacks, Critical Infrastructure and Accountability (10:00) - The Digital Evidence Gap in Atrocity Crimes (13:22) - Training Judges, Prosecutors and Defence Counsel (16:18) - How Easy It Is to Make a Deepfake (19:32) - The AI Justice Atlas and Courtrooms Worldwide (21:48) - Building a Fair Trial Advisor for Judges (25:48) - Malawi, a Legal Desert and a Testing Ground (33:47) - Protecting Journalists in the First 48 Hours (38:50) - What the Institute Needs Next Philippa Webb: Philippa Webb KC is Professor of Public International Law at the University of Oxford's Blavatnik School of Government, a Fellow of Exeter College, and a barrister at Twenty Essex.

Political conflicts related to immigration are thorny enough on their own. The issues and challenges intensify once we add to the mix our warming planet and its relationship to migration, immigration, and human displacement. Two 2024-25 CASBS fellows – Maureen Eger, a sociologist of immigration, and Alice Farmer, a refugee lawyer specializing in climate change and displacement – discuss scholarly and policy dimensions of the climate migration landscape in conversation with Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist John Markoff (CASBS fellow, 2017-18).

This episode examines the systematic violations of Palestinian human rights and the international community's failure to hold Israel accountable for breaching its treaty obligations. Accountability is necessary for the documented crimes against humanity of apartheid and persecution that Israeli authorities commit against millions of Palestinians, and the broader pattern of human rights abuses across Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. How do these violations persist despite clear international legal frameworks, and the devastating humanitarian consequences for Palestinian civilians who face displacement, restricted access to basic services, and ongoing threats to their survival? We analyze the international community's inconsistent response to these documented abuses and the urgent need for meaningful accountability mechanisms. Join host Sahar Aziz for this critical analysis of international law, state responsibility, and the ongoing humanitarian crisis facing millions of Palestinians. Our guest is Omar Shakir, Israel and Palestine Director at Human Rights Watch, whose groundbreaking documentation of Israeli apartheid and persecution led to his deportation by the Israeli government in 2019. A Stanford Law graduate and former Fulbright Scholar, Shakir has dedicated his career to human rights advocacy, from representing Guantanamo detainees at the Center for Constitutional Rights to investigating the Rab'a massacre in Egypt. His comprehensive reports on crimes against humanity in Israel and Palestine have shaped international discourse on accountability and justice.   #Israel #Palestine #Gaza #Genocide #ICC #HumanRights  BiographyOmar Shakir is the Executive Director of Democracy in the Arab World Now (DAWN), the organization founded by the late Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi that seeks to change US policy in the Middle East and hold human rights abusers in the region accountable. Prior to his current role, Omar served for nearly a decade as the Israel and Palestine Director at Human Rights Watch. In that capacity, he spearheaded the organization's documentation of the genocide in Gaza and other atrocities across Israel/Palestine and authored several seminal reports, including a 213-page report documenting how Israeli authorities are committing the crimes against humanity of apartheid and persecution against millions of Palestinians, the most widely covered and viewed report in the organization's history. Before that, he was a Bertha Fellow at the Center for Constitutional Rights, where he worked as part of legal teams that represented men detained at Guantanamo Bay, making frequent visits to the detention facility.Recommended ReadingsExtermination and Acts of Genocide, Human Rights Watch (2024)Hopeless, Starving, and Besieged, Human Rights Watch (2024)A Threshold Crossed: Israeli Authorities and the Crimes of Apartheid and Persecution, Human Rights Watch (2021)Support the showSupport the Center for Security, Race and Rights by following us and making a donation:Donate: https://give.rutgersfoundation.org/csrr-support/20046.html Subscribe to our Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEbUfYcWGZapBNYvCObiCpp3qtxgH_jFy Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rucsrr Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/rutgerscsrr Follow us on Threads: https://threads.com/rutgerscsrr Follow us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/rucsrr Follow us on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/rucsrr

Tonight, in this incendiary investigative edition of Light ‘Em Up!We're burying our nose into the international intrigue, kidnapping and arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.The arrest of Maduro is not the first time the US has captured a sitting head of government in Latin America.In December 1989, the George H.W. Bush administration launched Operation Just Cause, deploying over 24,000 U.S. troops to depose Panama's Manuel Noriega and bring him to the United States to face federal drug-trafficking charges.For the longest time, President Trump has had a “hard on” for Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.Maduro is accused by U.S. authorities of being one of the world's largest narco-traffickers, actively working with cartels to smuggle fentanyl-laced cocaine into the U.S. and engaging in narco-terrorism.In March 2020, Maduro was charged in a Southern District of New York federal indictment for:—     narco-terrorism, conspiracy to import cocaine,—     possession of machine guns and destructive devices,—     and conspiracy to possess machine guns and destructive devices in violation of Title 21 U.S.C. §§ 960a and 963, and 18 U.S.C. § 924.—     The U.S. Government initially offered a reward offer of up to $15 million for any information leading to the arrest and/or conviction of Nicolás Maduro Moros in 2020.  The Biden Administration's Department of State on January 8, 2025, announced raising the reward offer to up to $25 million and ultimately $50 million under Trump 2.0.President Trump's opposition to Maduro was driven by Maduro's alleged authoritarian governance, political corruption, and alleged involvement in large-scale drug trafficking.Trump also frequently criticized Maduro for undermining democratic elections (as he himself has done) and allying with U.S. geopolitical rivals like China, Russia, and Iran.In this episode, we'll shine the antiseptic light of the truth and examine:The allegations that Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Adela Flores de Maduro stand accused of — and have been indicted on.As you know from previous episodes of Light ‘Em Up:Criminal charges are merely accusations, and the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless found guilty at trial or by plea.—     Straight from the indictment we'll investigate the Trump administration's case and legal arguments …—     We'll examine the legal nuances of the DOJ indictment detailing narco-terrorism and drug trafficking charges,—     As well as the international impacts and law that cover head of state sovereignty, state sovereignty and the “legality” of such a sweeping international action.—     All with an intense focus on the response from the EU, Latin America, China, Russia.Trump says, “The Venezuelan people are “Happy”.  We've learned differently.The fallout from this raid continues to shape international relations, with global leaders split between condemning the breach of sovereignty and supporting the removal of an autocratic regime.Arresting and extraditing your political enemies can serve as a convenient way to get rid of political rivals — but it doesn't make the process clean, easy or lawful.Was this massive use of military force in Caracas a violation of international law, and more specifically Article 2 §4 of The UN Charter?Is Mr. Maduro entitled to immunity as the head of state of a sovereign country?  The U.S. government maintains that he obtained the status through a fraudulent election. General Noriega made a similar claim and lost.Nicolás Maduro declared himself a prisoner of war, a status that the last Latin American leader seized by U.S. forces, Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, also claimed.What will be the geopolitical impact for Venezuela and what does its future look like in conjunction with President Trump's declaration that the U.S. would “oversee” Venezuela's transition, and the subsequent installation of Maduro's Number 2 … interim president Delcy Rodríguez.These actions will certainly have broader geopolitical and energy implications for the region. The search for the truth and justice begins RIGHT HERE … and RIGHT NOW!Tune in for all the explosive details and our sponsors Newsly & Feedspot!We want to hear from you!Support the show

On today's show, Andrew and Bill begin by parsing the economic data released by the PRC this week, including slower-than-expected growth, the Party's response to the status quo, export-powered growth that is widening trade imbalances, and the questions all of this will raise for foreign policymakers. From there: The Party's findings on Ma Xingrui, questions that remain unanswered, and cadre risk aversion for the next 18 months. Then: PRC messaging around openness in AI, an ongoing U.S. debate over open-source AI models, three chip bills that may end up in the NDAA, and the continued adventures in China policy on Capitol Hill. At the end: Reflections on the 10th anniversary of The Hague ruling on the PRC's territorial claims in the South China Sea, as well as the state of play today.

Has Britain's change of leadership created a genuine opportunity for a new approach to Palestine, or will little change in practice?Britain Palestine Project trustees Sir Vincent Fean and Andrew Whitley assess the implications of the new Labour government under Prime Minister Andy Burnham, examining whether recent statements on Gaza and international law will be matched by meaningful action.The discussion explores practical policy options available to the UK, from sanctions on illegal settlements and financial services to enforcing the International Court of Justice's advisory opinion on the occupation of the Palestinian territories. Vincent and Andrew also consider the political pressures facing the new government, the role of public opinion, and why Britain has both a historic responsibility and an opportunity to provide international leadership.They also discuss:The UK's recognition of the State of Palestine and what should happen next.Why international law must be followed by practical consequences.Trade with Israeli settlements and proposed sanctions.The significance of the proposed E1 settlement expansion.Humanitarian access to Gaza and the role of UNRWA.Whether Britain should continue to follow Washington's lead—or build a coalition with like-minded countries.The importance of Palestinian political unity and forthcoming elections.How upcoming elections in Israel, Palestine and the United States could reshape the political landscape.Despite the gravity of the current situation, Vincent and Andrew end by identifying areas where sustained public pressure, principled diplomacy and international cooperation could still bring meaningful change.Sir Vincent Fean served in the British Diplomatic Service for more than 35 years, including as British Consul-General in Jerusalem (2010–2014). He is a trustee of the Britain Palestine Project and author of A Misunderstood Friendship: Britain and Israel, 1948–2020.Andrew Whitley is a former senior United Nations official with extensive experience across the Middle East, including senior roles with UNRWA and the Office of the UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process. He is a trustee of the Britain Palestine Project.Subscribe to the Britain Palestine Project Podcast for expert analysis, interviews and discussions exploring Britain's historic and contemporary role in Palestine.Guests

New research into IVF and donor eggs suggests that older women face a lower chance of fertility treatment working, even when using young donor eggs - with a marked drop-off from around the age of 49. Experts studying more than 1700 women say the findings challenge the idea that donor eggs can fully "reset" the reproductive clock - BUT that they should not put older couples off trying. Researchers believe age-related changes in the womb lining may be the cause. Nuala McGovern is joined by Dr Ippokratis Sarris, who is chair elect of the British Fertility Society, and writer Grace Ackroyd who had a baby at 47 using donor eggs. Have you ever found love in an unexpected place? At a gig? A restaurant?... What about a library? Four couples have found love in the stacks of Anlaby Park Community Library, in Hull. Nuala is joined by one of them, Mandy and Adrian Strickland, who share their story. What do we know about domestic violence in post-conflict societies, and how important is this knowledge for tackling violence against women in Northern Ireland? Do we see the history of conflict in Northern Ireland reflected in patterns of abuse and violence that women face today? Our guests share their views. Monica McWilliams is a long-standing peace activist and Emeritus Professor at the Transitional Justice Institute Ulster University and Aisling Swaine is Professor of Peace, Security and International Law in Uni College Dublin.Trish Patterson, a 41-year-old mother of twins, has just set a new world record for the National Three Peaks challenge, running 425 miles over five days. We talk to her about her extraordinary feat and what motivates her to keep going.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Kirsty Starkey

Checks on executive power have become fully unbalanced, with boundaries and guardrails overrun daily.

Attila Tanzi - State of Necessity in International Law by Audiovisual Library of International Law

The history of Jews in the United States is often told as if they immigrated, gained citizenship, and almost immediately achieved full legal rights. Yet this story fundamentally misses how citizenship rights worked for Jews and countless others who arrived on American shores. In Who Is American? Belonging and the Question of Jewish Citizenship, Lila Corwin Berman draws on case law, statutes, and debates to argue that both the laws of American citizenship and Jews' position in them changed repeatedly across the twentieth century. Courts, policymakers, and the public persistently asked what it meant to be Jewish under the law. Were Jews a race, a nationality, a religion—or some combination of each? The answer carried profound legal consequences. Not only did it determine Jews' citizenship status, but it also affected the rights they could exercise. Just as significantly, the meaning of the categories under law changed over time, affecting Jews' self-understanding, their political ideals, and their relationships to other groups of Americans.Who Is American? tells a history that resonates powerfully with today's high-stakes battles over citizenship and rights. As Berman concludes, citizenship law has always been better at posing questions about the terms of belonging than at providing any ultimate resolution. The tangled story of Jewish citizenship demonstrates the limits of law and explains why the United States continues to fall into new and, often, unsettling debates about who is American. Lila Corwin Berman is the Paul and Sylvia Steinberg Professor of American Jewish History at New York University, where she directs the Goldstein-Goren Center for American Jewish History. She is author of The American Jewish Philanthropic Complex: The History of a Multibillion-Dollar Institution (Princeton) and Metropolitan Jews: Politics, Race, and Religion in Postwar Detroit. Geraldine Gudefin is a modern Jewish historian researching Jewish migrations, family life, and legal pluralism. She is currently a Visiting Scholar at the Centre for Asian Legal Studies at the National University of Singapore, and is completing a book titled An Impossible Divorce? East European Jews and the Limits of Legal Pluralism in France, 1900-1939.

Giulio Bartolini - Human Rights and Disasters by Audiovisual Library of International Law

Article 1 of the Outer Space Treaty, signed at the height of the Cold War in 1967, declares that space "shall be the province of all [hu]mankind." That remarkable consensus, with its benefits to science and communication, has held for more than half a century— until now. In this conversation, host Barry Stevens talks with Michael Byers— Canada Research Chair in Global Politics and International Law at UBC and co-author of Who Owns Outer Space? — about how, behind breathless media coverage of rockets landing by themselves and astronauts circling the moon, Donald Trump's reframing of space as a "warfighting domain" and his Golden Dome fantasy are eroding fifty years of restraint and triggering an arms race. With Pentagon-backed companies like Musk's SpaceX, the commons of space is being crowded, enclosed, monetized, and militarized. But as Byers insists, "it is not too late."
