Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review

The Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review (CICLR), formerly known as International Comparative, Policy & Ethics Law Review (ICPELR) was created in the spring of 2017 as a result of a merger between the Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law (CJICL) and the Cardozo Public Law, Policy, and Ethics Journal (CPLPEJ). CJICL was ranked 5th in comparative law, and CPLPEJ was ranked 5th in ethics. CICLR publishes a diverse range of articles, case comments, and student notes on a variety of critical topics, including, but not limited to: corporate law, intellectual property, human rights, securities law, constitutional law, policy implications of governmental actions, public interest advocacy, and ethical considerations facing attorneys and the public at large. Recent articles have covered topics such as: border walls, immigration, and transnationalism; penal punishments for drug-related crimes in China; and gender and race discrimination in tort trials. Topics of recent student notes include: modernizing financial regulatory systems; international digital privacy rights; the effects of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act on Netflix users; and the effects of anti-trust laws on the NFL’s efforts to expand internationally. The CICLR offers students a unique opportunity to edit and write on events shaping the global political, social, and economic landscape. Recent articles have covered comparative approaches to interpreting government spending power, transnational organized crime, children soldiers in armed conflicts, international trade, and patent governance in the U.S. and Europe. Topics of recent student notes include the effects of international ivory trade on African elephant populations, access to health care in Israel for residents of the West Bank, comparative improvements in addressing the gender pay gap, financial investment laws in China, and comparative copyright laws in high fashion.
