Human rights and the military: The ‘chemical soldier’
Jo Bird and Greta Bird
Alternative Law Journal
Volume 30, Number 2, April 2005 LAW JOURNAL / LAW REVIEW
This article explores the military use of mind-altering drugs, particularly amphetamines and the ‘anti-remorse’ pill, to create an enhanced soldier. The enhanced soldier may lack capacity for the moral reason required to establish the commission of war crimes. The authors argue that the human rights of the soldier are being infringed and international conventions and domestic laws must be strengthened to remedy this.

[Articles] Head of State Immunity in the Light of Multiple Legal Regimes and Non-Self-Contained System Theories: Theoretical Analysis of ICC Third Party Jurisdiction Against the Background of the 2003 Iraq War
Bantekas, I.
Journal of Conflict and Security Law
Volume 10, Number 1, Spring 2005 LAW JOURNAL / LAW REVIEW

International criminal law is characterised by a multiplicity of legal regimes; those comprising the family of domestic law; international criminal tribunal regimes that are susceptible only to the law circumscribed by the Security Council and which can differ from general international law; and international criminal tribunals whose competence is delineated by general international law. Within this variety of legal regimes the concept of immunity does not have uniform application, and conflicts between the regimes as such are obvious. The rejection of immunity ratione personae in the legal regimes composed by international tribunals is an exception to the general rule applicable in the regime of domestic criminal laws. An elaboration of our noncontained system theory attempts to demonstrate that the third party rule (in treaty law and by extension to legal regimes) cannot be sustained as legitimate on many occasions.

A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON THE “WAR ON DRUGS”: COMPARING THE CONSEQUENCES OF SENTENCING POLICIES IN THE UNITED STATES AND ENGLAND
MaryBeth Lipp
Loyola of Los Angeles Law Review
Volume 37, Number 4, Spring 2004    p.979 LAW JOURNAL / LAW REVIEW
MaryBeth Lipp compares the drug sentencing laws in the United States, which employ rigid mandatory minimum sentences, with those of England, which give trial judges discretion to set sentences up to a statutory ceiling, taking into account the severity of the offense and the character of the defendant. Lipp finds that both systems have fueled increasing prison populations but that the United States suffers from a markedly higher rate of incarceration because its sentencing laws privilege violent offenses, as compared to nonviolent drug offenses, with shorter prison terms. Lipp’s comparison uncovers another unsettling consequence: Each nation disproportionately imprisons people of color for drug-related offenses. She concludes that neither system holds a cure for the social injustices occasioned by the war on drugs and argues that U.S. legislators should revisit the negative consequences that mandatory minimum sentences have yielded.
