On the off chance anyone's interested:

1. Journal Note: Roma and the Birth of Mass Expulsion Jurisprudence in the Council of Europe

2. Cultural Property: The destruction of Iraqi heritage sites by current occupying forces
e.g. Marines' graffiti, Samarra embankment, Marines' posting of snipers atop the historic Samarra minaret (making it a target for insurgent attacks), (lack of) response to Iraq Museum looting
maybe compare with WW2 (Nazi art looting; "military necessity" of destroying European sites) & Balkan wars (sites destruction)

3. EU Constitution: A comparative approach to American and EU constitutionalism
(especially exploring States' influence on federal government; fed govt's influence on States; rise and fall of the nation-state model; bellicose vs peaceful development of Union; the necessity of constitutionalization to economic integration; differing roles for case-law codification)
