We would like to congratulate our notes editor Shing Yui (Ovi) Cheung (LSE LLB '24) on the publication of his article, "When and Who Can Kill Your Darlings: Revisiting the Best Interests Test for Children’s Medical Treatments", on the LSE Law Review Blog!

This article challenges the best interests test adopted by the court when deciding whether to intervene in children’s medical treatments. Analysing a recent case, Dance v Barts Health NHS Trust, the piece argues that the court is very likely to engage in implicit value judgements such as sanctity of life when they intervene. Hence, the piece argues that using the best interests test as an intervention threshold is not aligned with Children Act 1989 and the rights enjoyed by children and their parents. A ‘significant harm’ threshold is proposed to establish the court’s jurisdiction, after which the court will still be able to determine the appropriate treatments based on the best interests test.

You can read the article here:

We would like to congratulate our notes editor Emma Chew (LSE LLB '25) on the publication of her article, "Algorithmic Creativity: How Should the UK Copyright Regime Accommodate Autonomous AI-generated Works?", on the LSE Law Review Blog!

This article examines how AI-generated works challenge the traditional copyright principle of human-centred originality in the UK. It also analyses how the UK’s bespoke provision protecting computer-generated works – section 9(3) of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act (CDPA) 1988 – is limited in its application due to the increasing capabilities of AI to operate without human intervention. With regards to policy considerations, this article therefore proposes entrance into the public domain as the most suitable approach to accommodate AI-generated works.

We would like to congratulate our notes editor Kofo Boboye (LSE LLB'24) on the publication of her article, "A gender-neutral law for gender-based violence?", on the LSE Law Review Blog!

This piece examines the new ‘Domestic Abuse Act’ (‘DAA’) 2021, finding that the conception of domestic abuse within the Act is in line with contemporary academic thought on the nature and definition of domestic abuse. The Act aims to promote awareness of domestic abuse, support victims and improve the justice system’s response. However, this article argues that without acknowledging the often gendered nature of domestic abuse, the effectiveness of this Act in improving the justice system’s response will be limited. This is particularly true due to prevalent misconceptions about victims of abuse within the justice system. The proposal is for a more accurate representation of the gendered effects of domestic abuse within the DAA statutory guidance in order to improve the treatment of domestic abuse by police officers and family courts.

You can read the article here:

We would like to congratulate our notes editor Sarah Ahmad (LSE LLM'23; LSE LLB ’22) on the publication of her article, "The Role of Developing Countries in Investor-State Arbitration: Reflections on Tethyan Copper v Islamic Republic of Pakistan", on the LSE Law Review Blog!

This article explores the role of developing countries in Investor-State Arbitration, using the dispute of Tethyan Copper Company Pty Limited v Islamic Republic of Pakistan as a case study. It argues that the international investment treaty regime disfavours developing countries and often poses an obstacle to sustainable economic growth and development. The article therefore proposes the implementation of a good governance framework that helps rebalance the obligations between foreign investors and host States.
