Abstract
INTRODUCTION
Volume 9 Issue 1 of the Creighton International and Comparative Law Journal presents several compelling and internationally relevant articles. The featured articles discuss the Doctrine of Necessity and how it should be applied to temporarily suspend commitments under international trade and investment agreements, as well as the interaction between cyberwarfare and international humanitarian law in the wake of a proliferation of cyber-attacks that have shifted the paradigm of warfare. The issue also features remarkable student articles taking up the pronounced talent waste stemming from the current treatment of skilled labor immigrants in the United States, and the global risks attending insufficient regulations regarding genetic modifications of the human genome in nations across the world.
As the legal frameworks of varying nations and cultures collide, the pursuit of knowledge and understanding becomes ever more important. An open discussion of the issues faced today, both at home and internationally, will be instrumental in shaping the world of tomorrow. We hope to add to this discussion by providing a platform for presenting pertinent issues and questions that cut across national and cultural lines.
I would like to express my gratitude to the board of editors, staff, authors, and our faculty advisor Raneta Lawson Mack for all of their hard work, which was instrumental in assembling this remarkable issue. This publication would not have been possible without the diligence of everyone involved, and so I thank each of you for your pronounced efforts.
