Minneord: Daniel F. Behn

Bildet kan inneholde: briller, panne, h?r, ansikt, smil.

It was with deep sadness that we received the message that Associate Professor Daniel F. Behn passed away last weekend in his apartment in London, seemingly in his sleep, at the far too early age of 47. Warm, generous, collegial, and deeply analytical and knowledgeable, he has been a dear friend, colleague, and scholarly leader in developing ground-breaking research on international investment arbitration.

Daniel started his academic career at the University of Dundee, first with an LLM in international dispute settlement, and thereafter a PhD as the Ibrahim Shihata Fellow in international law. He was the last Ph.D fellow of Professor Thomas W?lde, who inspired Daniel to come to Dundee��s renowned postgraduate program in mineral and petroleum law. Daniel is remembered at Dundee for his charisma and engagement, often gathering like-minded classmates to discuss international law and arbitration �C some attending just to hear him speak. His PhD, A Theory of Configurative Fairness for Evolving International Legal Orders, provides a foundational theory for understanding and measuring how subjective value perspectives affect the development of legal orders over time.?

In the same year that he graduated, 2013, Daniel was recruited to a post-doctoral position at PluriCourts Centre for Excellence, University of Oslo. His formal qualifications were excellent, but even more important was his combination of theoretical curiosity and a profound need to ground theory in real life experiences, problem solving, and empirical validation. He also had an unmatched and impressive encyclopaedic ability to recall in detail cases, persons, and events in international economic law. This repeatedly became the departure point for engaging and extensive discussions at the intersections of law, political science and philosophy.?

Daniel��s years at PluriCourts were many and busy. His project proposal was ��Investment Treaty Arbitration through the Eyes of the Foreign Investor: An Empirical Look at Claimant Behavior and Motivation��, dated 27 June 2013. The purpose was ��to look ��behind the cases�� in investment treaty arbitration [and] �� to gain empirical knowledge about the investor-claimant that is unlikely to be gained from the primary documents available to scholars.�� Looking back, it is clear that Daniel was extremely successful in achieving what he set out to do, with a flurry of empirical projects using quantitative, qualitative, and computational methods and the facilitation of a large and diverse investment law research community based at PluriCourts. However, as happens to many projects, he was prevented from applying the particular approach he envisaged; testing the theory and methodology on subjective values he developed in his PhD remained a project close to his heart that he worked on to the end.

?A majority of Daniel��s publications are co-authored reflecting his deep commitment to collegiality. He cherished every opportunity to work together with other academics, and his list of co-authors includes a broad range of PluriCourts researchers, former Dundee Ph.D fellows, and internationally renowned scholars from universities throughout the world. Two of his articles were awarded prestigious prizes, the European Society of International Law Young Scholar Award for the paper ��Managing Backlash: The Evolving Investment Treaty Arbitrator�� and the John H. Jackson Prize for the Best Article in the Journal of International Economic Law, ��The Revolving Door in International Investment Arbitration��. These articles, amongst others, are now highly cited and have been re-published in reference works.

Besides publications, Daniel has had four key tasks at PluriCourts. The first was to build a database on investment treaty arbitration, which has provided the basis for much of the empirical scholarship. The project took on a life on its own and has grown in many directions, with multiple database collaborators and use of machine learning methods. This was both a blessing and curse for Daniel when he left PluriCourts for a permanent position at Liverpool University in 2017. He gradually lost control over its content and design, which led him to continue using his excel spreadsheet that he trusted and mastered to perfection.

The second task was the publication of an edited volume on the legitimacy of investment treaty arbitration. It started out with invitation of Daniel��s selection of the most important empirical scholars in the field. This also became a long-term project, frequently interrupted by other new and pressing paper deadlines and initiatives. One of his last and cherished academic achievements was thus the publication of the edited volume in the spring of 2022: The Legitimacy of Investment Arbitration. Empirical Perspectives (Cambridge University Press), in which he is also the co-author of four chapters. It partners the other co-edited book Adjudicating Trade and Investment Disputes: Convergence or Divergence? (Cambridge University Press, 2020) and more than 40 other academic publications over a 15-year period.

The third task was to apply for funding. He received the most challenging task available, to produce an EU Horizon 2020 project application. While this was time-consuming, complex, and ultimately unsuccessful, it provided the foundation for two of the externally-financed international investment law research projects we have at PluriCourts today, LEGINVEST and COPIID, which will be an important and enduring part of PluriCourts�� legacy and provide the ongoing basis for our investment law research community. Daniel also actively co-led other major research projects, including on arbitrator psychology with colleagues at Queen Mary University of London.?

Daniel��s final task was public outreach and communication, which he approached with zeal. Besides co-writing numerous blogs for EJIL: Talk! and others and being interviewed in various media outlets, he was deeply involved in the ongoing UNCITRAL reform process on investment arbitration. ?In 2018, he was approached to be a founding member of the Academic Forum on Investor-State Dispute Settlement, which was established to support governments and civil society in reform negotiations. He played an active role in developing and communicating research results, co-editing special issues, and building institutionally the forum, and was appointed the Deputy Chair (2019) and subsequently Co-Chair (2021).

Besides these tasks, Daniel was also a passionate educator. At the University of Oslo, he used both Socratic and experiential methods to engage students in active learning in a variety of elective subjects. When he took up a position at Queen Mary University of London in 2019 he was given responsibility for the PhD program as Director of Graduate Studies, where he sought to follow up almost a hundred research fellows. Daniel spoke often of the joy of being engaged in helping others develop their careers. While the timing of Daniel��s arrival in London almost coincided with the outbreak of the pandemic and its accompanying isolation, Daniel is remembered for impressing his colleagues and students at Queen Mary with his exhaustive knowledge of international investment law, engaging personality and �C above all �C principled character.

Due to his avid curiosity and sharp mind, Daniel had also a taste of professional practice, representing a foreign investor in an investment treaty arbitration. His well-rounded knowledge of investor-state dispute settlement and empirical expertise contributed greatly to the design of the case strategy. He led the legal team and developed a close relationship with everyone involved in the case, including the client. This experience inspired a new set of ideas, questions, and reflections around the decision-making process in investment treaty arbitration, which would have undoubtedly resulted in a new research agenda for the coming years.

We will remember Daniel as a unique scholar who thrived and bloomed when working in close cooperation with others. He sparkled when faced with complex questions of data collection and testable hypotheses. He motivated and made others shine and helped make PluriCourts an exciting workplace with his boisterous humour, warmth, and engagement. Daniel F. Behn will be deeply missed.

I Norge er de grunnleggende reglene for den demokratiske styreformen gitt ved lovteksten i Grunnloven og i statsmaktenes og sivilsamfunnets praktisering av reglene og de verdiene de st?r for. Nasjonalstatene har v?rt tenkt som tilstrekkelige enheter for en demokratisk styringsform og med suverenitet til ? fastsette normene for demokrati. I v?r tid har det inter- og overnasjonale ��ʱ�ȷ�_nba�ȷ�ֱ��-�ʿ��ص��Ƽ�et i faktiske, politiske og rettslige former f?tt konsekvenser som griper dypt inn i statenes interne demokratiske prosesser og overskrider det formelle og mellomstatlige ��ʱ�ȷ�_nba�ȷ�ֱ��-�ʿ��ص��Ƽ�et. Det har blitt n?dvendig ? forst? hvordan det internasjonale ��ʱ�ȷ�_nba�ȷ�ֱ��-�ʿ��ص��Ƽ�et, og det transnasjonale, p?virker de internstatlige demokratiske prosesser, og om det internasjonale ��ʱ�ȷ�_nba�ȷ�ֱ��-�ʿ��ص��Ƽ�et kan ivareta demokratiske verdier. Kravene til demokratiske prosesser p? ulike styringsniv? kan komme i konflikt med hverandre. For Norges del er E?S-avtalen en av de mest omfattende og inngripende internasjonale forpliktelsene. Denne artikkelen sammenligner og analyserer hvordan to utredninger fra regjeringsoppnevnte utvalg �C NOU 2012: 2 og NOU 2024: 7 �C formulerer og behandler de grunnleggende dilemma knyttet til E?S-avtalens konsekvenser for Norge, s?rlig med hensyn til ivaretakelsen av en demokratisk styringsform. Begge utredningene er ?pne om at det er demokratiske dilemma og konflikter mellom realiseringen av en nasjonal demokratisk styringsform p? den ene siden og omfattende internasjonale forpliktelser p? den andre. Artikkelens form?l er ? analysere hvordan s? grunnleggende demokratiske dilemma formuleres og diskuteres.

Can the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR or the Court) fulfil its function effectively in the face of rising illiberalism and authoritarianism? Ongoing democratic backsliding, a tide of authoritarian populism, and the spread of illiberal practices in Europe, in many places exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic, have given rise to a growing sense of urgency.

Luftfartsloven stiller krav til luftfart?yers nasjonalitet for adgang til luftfart i Norge. Denne artikkelen unders?ker om nasjonalitetskravet praktiseres p? en m?te som er forenlig med reglene om diskriminerings- og restriksjonsforbud i E?S-avtalens hoveddel og med EU-rettslig luftfartslovgivning innlemmet i E?S-avtalens vedlegg. Oppmerksomheten er rettet mot kommersiell luftfart omfattet av forordning (EF) nr. 1008/2008 (lufttransportforordningen). Rettsakten er gjennomf?rt i den norske lufttransportforskriften med supplerende s?rbestemmelser, som blant annet begrenser hvor lenge et norsk luftfartsselskap kan leie inn et luftfart?y registrert i en annen E?S-stat. Begrensningen kan gi konkurransemessige skjevheter og hindre fri bevegelighet av tjenester. Studien avdekker holdepunkter for at den norske forskriften etter sin ordlyd er uforenlig med lufttransportforordningen. Videre indikerer unders?kelsen at forvaltningen ikke har gitt E?S-retten tilstrekkelig gjennomslag i praksis.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform healthcare, but this requires access to health data. Synthetic data generated through training machine learning models on real data offers a way to balance innovation and privacy protection. However, uncertainties in the practical classification of synthetic health data under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) currently limits the possible benefits of synthetic data. Through a systematic analysis of relevant legal sources and an empirical study, this article explores whether synthetic data should be classified as personal data under the GDPR. The study investigates the residual identification risk through generating synthetic data and simulating inference attacks, challenging common perceptions of technical identification risk. The risk of identification depends on several factors. The findings suggest synthetic data are often likely anonymous since results of an attack cannot easily be verified. The legal analysis highlights uncertainties about what constitutes a ��reasonably likely�� risk and a need to further investigate a threshold for accepted risk. To promote innovation, the study calls for clearer regulations to balance privacy protection with the advancement of AI in healthcare.

This article delves into the principle of State liability for judicial breaches under the EEA Agreement. The European Court of Justice (ECJ) has established that Member States can be held liable for violations of EU law by their courts of last instance. The article examines the differences between the EU and EEA legal orders and explores how these differences may influence the application of the State liability doctrine in EEA law. It argues that the level of effective judicial protection in the EFTA pillar of the EEA Agreement should be on par with that in the EU, and therefore State liability for judicial breaches should be recognized in EEA law. Such liability also serves as a preventive tool, providing an incentive for domestic judges to uphold their European mandate and adhere to the principle of sincere cooperation.

The purpose of this paper is to critically look at two recent E-Systems �C one introduced in Hungary (EKAER and more recently BIREG) and the other in Romania (RO e-Transport) �C that apply or have until recently applied, among others, to the intra-EU transportation of goods to and from the countries in question. These E-Systems are meant to combat Value Added Tax (VAT) evasion. Whilst they pursue a worthy public goal, on a closer look they pose significant legal and practical challenges. From a legal perspective, these E-Systems and the compliance checks at the border that arise from their implementation amount to measures having an equivalent effect to quantitative restrictions, prohibited under Article 34 TFEU. Furthermore, they contravene secondary EU legislation, such as Regulation 1100/2008 on the prohibition of internal frontier checks, and the VAT Directive and its implementing regulations. The E-Systems also pose numerous practical challenges, such as increased direct and indirect costs for businesses and frequent technical problems. Furthermore, the introduction of national E-Systems increases the administrative burden that the transportation of goods entails and risks further fragmenting the Internal Market. Besides Romania and Bulgaria��s impending full accession to the Schengen Area and the need to increase awareness around EU law, a possible solution could be to set up an EU-wide E-System, managed by public authorities, for combating VAT evasion for the intra-EU transport of goods. Furthermore, instead of systematic border checks, compliance checks should be carried out in a country��s interior, using a multi-filter approach and cross-checks.
John, Taylor St & Roberts, Anthea (2025). Recasting UNCITRAL Working Group III. Journal of international economic law. ISSN 1369-3034. s. 1�C18. doi: 10.1093/jiel/jgaf037. Fulltekst i vitenarkiv Vis sammendrag
Abstract Who participates in international economic lawmaking, and who should participate? What roles are appropriate for private industry or private legal practitioners, or for academics or civil society, and what roles are reserved for states? The composition of international economic lawmaking bodies is often relatively fluid, not fixed as it appears from the outside. There are both natural fluctuations and orchestrated shifts in participation��states and other actors can strategically shape who participates, and this fluidity means questions about participation emerge regularly. We examine how these questions played out in one international economic lawmaking body��the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) Working Group III��as it transformed between 2017 and 2020. During these years, reform-minded states and others recast the Working Group by pushing private arbitral practitioners out and pulling state officials in. We use large-N attendance data, ethnographic observation, and interviews with participants to illustrate the decision to recast, the new cast of officials, and the various responses to recasting from the old cast of practitioners. We document how the physical presence of practitioners changed, then chronicle how arbitral experience changed in value, and how practitioners�� views on their role diverged.

Emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, present significant challenges to discrimination law, particularly regarding effective enforcement. This article highlights the evidentiary difficulties in proving algorithmic discrimination and examines the rule on the burden of proof under EU non-discrimination law in this context. It discusses challenges and possibilities relating to the role of the burden of proof rule in enhancing the principle of equality and non-discrimination, particularly in relation to algorithmic discrimination. A key obstacle is the lack of transparency, a problem not unique to al-gorithmic discrimination but also a well-known challenge in the field of pay discrimina-tion. The article argues that valuable insights can be drawn from how the burden of proof rule has been developed and concretised under EU law on the right to equal pay between women and men, with particular attention to the 2023 Pay Transparency Directive.

I artikkelen gj?res rede for ? som i tidligere ?r ? det vedtatte statsbudsjettet for 2026p? rettsomr?dene til FAB. Dette er det f?rste statsbudsjettet fra St?re-regjeringenetter valget i 2025, og med Jens Stoltenberg som finansminister. Budsjettet bleendret p? enkelte viktige omr?der ved budsjettforliket med de fire andre partiene,som sammen med Arbeiderpartiet utgj?r regjeringens parlamentariske grunnlag.

Barne- og familiedepartementet og Digitaliserings- og forvaltningsdepartementet sendte i fjor sommer p? h?ring et forslag til lov om aldersgrense for bruk av sosiale medier. Hovedgrepet i lovforslaget er at det innf?res en aldersgrense p? 15 ?r for bruk av ��sosiale medier��, og at tilbyderne av ��sosiale medier�� plikter ? gjennomf?re alderskontroll. Loven definerer ogs? ��sosiale medier�� bredt, slik at loven rammer alle internettjenester som lar brukerne opprette en profil og knytte kontakt med andre brukere, samt gj?r det mulig ? laste opp og publisere innhold uten redaksjonell kontroll. Den 23. mars 2026 inviterer NFJE til medlemsm?te om lovforslaget, der Ingvild Schi?ll Ericson og Stian ?by Johansen vil innlede om de E?S-rettslige problemstillingene lovforslaget reiser og forslagets forhold til ytringsfriheten.

Et frifinnende mindretall best?ende av meddommere i H?logaland lagmannsrett frifant en helikopterflyger for uaktsom flyging i henhold til E?S-rettslige lufttrafikkregler etter at flygeren hadde landet p? eget hustak. P?talemyndigheten har anket frifinnelsen, ankeutvalget har tillatt anket fremmet, men saken er utsatt fordi det E?S-rettslige sp?rsm?let vil bli forelagt EFTA-domstolen. Saken gir potensielt et nytt eksempel p? utfordringer som kan oppst? dersom man benytter norsk juridisk metode p?

EU-reglene om de fire friheter var lenge dominert av de traktatregulerte forbudene mot diskriminering og restriksjoner. Slik var det ogs? da E?S-avtalen ble inng?tt. Etter dette har utviklingen i EU- og E?S-retten imidlertid g?tt i retning av en stadig mer omfattende regulering i sekund?rrettsakter (direktiver og forordninger). Noe av dette er sektorovergripende regulering, slik som arbeidstakerforordningen, tjenestedirektivet, unionsborgerdirektivet, og forordningen om gjensidig anerkjennelse av varer. Andre direktiver og forordninger er mer partikul?re, for eksempel ved at de harmoniserer krav til bestemte varer og tjenester, eller ved at de etablerer ordninger for gjensidig anerkjennelse. Som f?lge av denne utviklingen er sp?rsm?let om hvilke E?S-regler som kommer til anvendelse p? et saksforhold b?de praktisk viktig og ofte vanskelig. Skal for eksempel det aktuelle statlige tiltaket vurderes i lys av diskriminerings- og restriksjonsforbudene i E?S-avtalens hoveddel, sekund?rrettsakter tatt inn i E?S-avtalens vedlegg, eller kanskje begge deler? Norsk forening for europarett inviterer til ?pent seminar om dette temaet tirsdag 17. mars kl. 14:30 til ca. 16:00. Under seminaret vil Torkell S?tervadet, stipendiat ved Institutt for offentlig rett (UiO), dr?fte disse sp?rsm?lene med utgangspunkt i en artikkel han nylig publiserte i Tidsskrift for Rettsvitenskap. Deretter vil Gjermund Mathisen, partner i Kvale Advokatfirma, kommentere innlegget, f?r det ?pnes for en allmenn diskusjon.

Despite decades of discussion on autonomous weapon systems (AWS), there is no consensus on the degree of human control that must be implemented in such weapons to comply with international law. The term ��meaningful human control�� (MHC) has been widely used to refer to such a threshold, but the term is not legally binding, and its attributes remain unclear. Through identifying the common elements of MHC and comparing them to equivalent obligations in international law, one finds that ��human control�� is approached differently in international humanitarian law (IHL), which impacts MHC��s practical scope. This paper finds that the elements of MHC ? duration of use, environment, operator awareness, and reliability and predictability ? encompass an interconnected system of requirements which in some instances extend beyond what is practically feasible and legally required by IHL. While existing IHL centers human judgment and upholds the balance between humanitarian concerns and military advantage, certain definitions of MHC rule out the use of existing conventional weapons through stringent intervention requirements and a lack of cohesion within operational and technical perspectives. MHC appears to enjoy some form of legitimacy among international actors, as several states treat its underlying aim as a principle ��accepted as law�� due to its reflection in IHL. The legal, operational and technical challenges of MHC nevertheless impede on state interest in adopting the specific term. These challenges suggest that ��control�� and ��judgment�� may be viewed as separate elements, and that the term ��context-appropriate human judgment and control�� (CA-HJ&C) as coined by certain states is useful in differentiating these dimensions of human control. In applying this terminology to AWS, one can pinpoint the areas related to control and judgment respectively, and locate potential solutions for implementing adequate human control and judgment, such as human-machine teaming paired with value sensitive design.
Fl?ysvik., Nordrum, Jon Christian & S?nnesyn., Berg, Kristin (2026). Free Elections in the Age of AI: Norway��s Positive Obligations under International Law to Protect the Right to Free Elections Amid Emerging Technologies and AI-enabled Electoral Influence. Universitetet i Oslo. Fulltekst i vitenarkiv Vis sammendrag
This thesis examines whether Norway fulfils its positive obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) Additional Protocol No. 1 Article 3 (P1-3) to protect the right to free elections in the context of technological developments and undue AI-enabled electoral influence. It explores whether there is legal basis for a dynamic interpretation of this obligation in light of a changed information landscape and new European regulations such as the AI Act and the Digital Services Act (DSA). Recent jurisprudence from the European Court of Human Rights in the case of Bradshaw and others v. the UK affirms that the state has a positive obligation to protect voters from undue influence. However, the content of this obligation remains unclear, and the state has a wide margin of appreciation regarding what positive measures to implement. What matters is whether the legal framework, taken as a whole, ensures that the elections ��ensure the free expression of the opinion of the people��, pursuant to Article P1-3. The analysis finds that Norway��s legal framework, anchored in the Constitution, the Election Act and sector-specific legislation, generally meets international standards for protecting the right to free elections. However, certain vulnerabilities remain, particularly during the campaign period, where safeguards against covert influence and widespread disinformation campaigns are limited. While forthcoming EU regulations will strengthen the Norwegian framework, further legislative measures may be required to address challenges related to political advertising, the funding of political campaigns and the spread of disinformation.

Abstract This thesis analyses the legal boundaries of diplomatic sanctions under public international law, focusing on the framework established by the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations (1961), the UN Charter, and the law of State responsibility. While diplomatic sanctions such as recalling ambassadors, declaring a diplomat��s persona non grata, or downgrading or severing relations are often viewed as political tools, they operate within a clearly structured legal regime. Using a doctrinal legal method complemented by a contextual analysis of state practice and relevant international jurisprudence, the study identifies the point at which diplomatic sanctions shift from lawful exercises of sovereign discretion to unlawful coercion or intervention. Through a comparative examination of three recent case studies, the coordinated expulsions of Russian diplomats (2018), the diplomatic responses to Russia��s invasion of Ukraine (2022), and China��s downgrading of relations with Lithuania (2021). The analysis shows how contemporary state practice confirms, tests, and sometimes challenges established legal boundaries. The findings indicate that diplomatic sanctions are generally lawful as acts of retorsion; may, in exceptional circumstances, qualify as countermeasures when the requirements of ARSIWA (necessity, proportionality, reversibility, and procedure) are met; and become unlawful when they constitute coercive interference or breach inviolability obligations. Moreover, recent coordinated state practice suggests the emergence of a nascent customary norm supporting the legitimacy of non-forcible diplomatic responses to serious violations of international law. Ultimately, the thesis concludes that the legality of diplomatic sanctions depends not on their form but on their purpose, effects, and respect for protective obligations. This demonstrates how international law continues to balance sovereign discretion with normative restraint, preserving diplomacy as a stable and legally regulated means of interstate communication.

Due diligence is a significant concept within international environmental law. It is the standard of care with which a primary norm or obligation needs to be implemented. The primary norm can be customary norm or a treaty-based norm and is not limited to the principle of harm prevention. Due diligence serves as a normative benchmark for State conduct, ensuring that States take urgent, effective and efficient measures to mitigate climate change. In this thesis, due diligence is analysed in the Paris Agreement, customary international law, and the law of the sea. Due to the urgency of the climate crisis and the risk of irreversible harm, the standard of due diligence must be stringent.

This thesis examines the lawfulness of the Israeli Defense Force's (IDF) use of artificial intelligence (AI) systems during the 2021 and 2023 military operations in Gaza. The research question focuses on whether the IDF's reliance on AI systems for targeting purposes complies with international humanitarian law (IHL). The methodology includes a legal analysis of IHL rules and a comparative case study of the two military operations. Key findings indicate that while AI systems like the Gospel and Lavender can be lawful if used appropriately, the alleged Where's Daddy system is likely to breach IHL due to its systematic targeting of family homes. The thesis underscores the importance of human control in AI-enabled warfare and highlights the impact of conflict classification on the lawfulness of AI use.

As the world faces an escalating climate crisis, the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism (PACM) offers a promising solution in the form of an emerging international carbon market. This thesis explores the framework of PACM, established under Article 6.4 of the 2015 Paris Agreement, to assess its potential in creating an effective and sustainable carbon market. This research comes at an exciting time with recent regulatory updates from COP 29 in Baku, PACM is nearing operationalisation after a decade of development. This research undertakes a rigorous analysis of PACM's regulatory framework, contrasting it with its predecessor, the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), to discover its advancements and challenges. The study focuses on key criteria of environmental integrity, sustainable development, transparency, and market accessibility to determine the likely effectiveness and sustainability of this market. Ultimately, this study posits that while PACM may not constitute a universal remedy, it represents a critical advancement in the global endeavour to mitigate climate change. By fostering genuine additional mitigation efforts and prioritising sustainable development, PACM holds the potential to significantly contribute to the objectives of the Paris Agreement. However, its success will depend on the collective commitment of the international community to support and refine this innovative market mechanism.
Alme, Kristin (2025). The Value of Recognizing Gender Apartheid as a Crime Against Humanity - A Feminist Analysis. Universitetet i Oslo. Fulltekst i vitenarkiv Vis sammendrag
Focusing on Afghanistan as a case study, this thesis explores the applicability of the term "gender apartheid" to describe the Taliban's institutionalized system of gender-based oppression, identifies an accountability gap in international law for addressing gender-based crimes, and explores the value of codifying gender apartheid in the forthcoming Crimes Against Humanity Convention. This thesis situates gender apartheid within the broader context of gender-based discrimination and violence. Exploring the historical and legal evolution of apartheid, it applies a feminist lens to highlight parallels between systems of racial and gender-based oppression. It critiques the limitations of existing frameworks in addressing gender-based crimes and argues that codifying gender apartheid would complement these frameworks. This thesis further emphasizes the symbolic and practical significance of recognizing gender apartheid, particularly in stigmatizing such systems of oppression, promoting accountability, and empowering affected groups, such as Afghan women, girls, and LGBTQI+ persons, in their pursuit of justice. This thesis underscores the urgent need for the international community to address the paradox in international law, which condemns racial apartheid yet fails to extend similar recognition to systems of institutionalized gender oppression. Codifying gender apartheid in the Crimes Against Humanity Convention would not only strengthen international law but also serve as a mobilizing tool to pressure regimes like the Taliban and preemptively create accountability for future systems of institutionalized gender-based oppression.

Hate speech and its dissemination through various forms of media have historically played a crucial role in the commission of core international crimes. International criminal law has tackled this issue through landmark cases in Nuremberg's International Military Tribunal, the International Criminal Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda. However, the advent and proliferation of the use of social media has led to new avenues to commit violations of international criminal law through state-sponsored disinformation campaigns. This novel and decentralised form of media, therefore, poses new and unadjudicated legal challenges in the realm of international criminal law. This thesis examines the legal challenges and developments associated with prosecuting online hate speech as a crime against humanity of persecution. The analysis will focus on the possible International Criminal Court case against Min Aung Hlaing and his alleged commission of the crime against humanity of persecution. The alleged hate speech spread on Facebook both by Hlaing himself and through covert military campaigns of disinformation will be analyzed through previous caselaw and current approaches to the Rome Statute.

It examines the interpretation of these clauses by tribunals in investment arbitration, reflecting notable cases such as EnCana v. Ecuador, Burlington v. Ecuador, and Yukos v. Russia. The study identifies the legal threshold at which tax measures may be considered expropriation, the conditions under which tribunals may override carve-out protections, and the role of proportionality, intent, and public purpose in this assessment. Findings suggest that tax carve-out clauses are generally effective in preserving fiscal autonomy, but they are not absolute; measures that are discriminatory, disproportionate, or enacted in bad faith may still breach treaty protections. The thesis concludes with practical recommendations for treaty writers and legislators to improve clarity, predictability, and balance between protecting investors and respecting sovereign rights.
