  • Professor Kent argues that in Boumediene and Munaf the Supreme Court mistakenly relied on the Insular Cases for its theory that enemies have constitutional rights during military conflict by (i) misreading the Insular Cases the Court cited, (ii) ignoring others that were relevant, and (iii) misunderstanding the relevant historical events.

  • This paper describes how Ireland drastically improved its economic position through its adoption of what came to be referred to as the Celtic Tiger strategy. Because of the surprisingly striking similarities between Ireland and Guam and the finding that the Celtic Tiger strategy represents nothing but "sensible policies "for enhancing economic growth, we believe that Guam can employ those elements of the Celtic Tiger strategy that worked, and modify those elements that did not. By doing so, Guam can transform itself into the Pacific Tiger.

  • The impending U.S. military build-up on the island of Guam, a U.S. territory located in Western Pacific, is expected to drastically change the island's socio-economic landscape. There is concern about who would gain and who would lose on the road to economic development. The consensus in the literature that the economic development process could be designed so that it would have an equalizing effect on income distribution suggests a role for deliberate policymaking and economic planning.

  • To avoid extinctions and other harms to ecological health from escalating climatic change, scientists, resource managers, and activists are considering and even engaging in "assisted migration" -- the intentional movement of an organism to an area in which its species has never existed. This article explores the profound implications of climate change for American natural resource management through the lens of this controversial adaptation strategy. It details arguments regarding the scientific viability and legality of assisted migration under the thicket of laws that govern natural resources in the US. The article explains why contemporary natural resource law's fidelity to historic baselines, protecting preexisting biota, and shielding nature from human activity is increasingly unte...
