International Law and Cyber Conflict / Defense

Maeve Dion. Legal Research Associate. Email.

SUMMARY

Most of the literature in the field of cyber conflict has been authored by a select, core group of researchers with specific cyber expertise. This project will (1) evaluate those arguments, and (2) provide a non-cyber expert's analysis of how International Law and US Constitutional law inform the debates regarding sovereignty and security/defense in the cyber realm. This project will survey the existing literature on cyber conflict/defense and will provide an analysis of the problems and proposed remedies. A renowned scholar of International Law and US Constitutional Law will then critique these arguments and will add his own legal analysis and observations, with the goal of crafting a journal-quality law review article.
