: dc.contributor.author: Polo-Bergeron, Pierre dc.date.issued: 2026-10 dc.description.abstract: Ce mémoire propose une analyse critique du droit international de l’eau et de son application concrète, en particulier dans le bassin du Nil. La première partie examine l’architecture juridique internationale relative aux eaux transfrontalières, en détaillant ses fondements coutumiers et conventionnels ainsi que ses obligations procédurales et substantielles, et en évaluant son intégration des droits humains. La seconde partie analyse l’exemple égyptien comme vitrine des défis contemporains : elle met en lumière la tension entre la souveraineté étatique, la coopération régionale, la sécurité hydrique, le changement climatique et les crises humanitaires. L’étude conclut que si le droit international de l’eau constitue une base normative solide, sa mise en oeuvre reste tributaire de la volonté politique des États et de la création de mécanismes conjoints, qui seuls permettent une coopération effective et durable dans [...]

: An armed aggression provoked by one of the permanent members of the Security Council, coupled with the subsequent arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court against his representative testify to a breakdown in the system of peacekeeping and collective security put in place in the UN Charter. Yet, this is not the first crisis in this system. Against threats to international peace and security, strategies for empowering, delegating and adapting powers have been developed. The notion of the “emergency” of the reaction acts as a driving force for the empowerment and the gradation of institutional powers, but also for their delegation to other bodies or subjects of international law. These systemic adaptations of the structure of the maintenance of international peace and security through the notion of emergency reveal its finalistic nature: emergency makes it possible to achieve the goal of maintaining peace and security by influencing the assessment of an act’s conformity withinternational
: The Framework Convention on AI builds on international human rights law to establish a legal instrument aimed at ensuring respect for fundamental rights and principles recognised by States in the context of the development and use of AI. It is therefore in line withinternational and European ethical frameworks on AI. At the same time, it is a unique text, the first multilateral treaty applicable to activities within the AI lifecycle. This raises questions about its contribution to the contemporary co-construction of global AI governance. To this end, this contribution offers a systematic and contextual legal analysis of the main provisions of the text, examining first the holistic scope of the Framework Convention on AI and secondly its high-level normative substance. The analysis shows that the Convention is the result of a global political compromise, which makes it a text with modest and uncertain legal scope, especially with regard to persons affected by AI. At the same time, the legal methodology it ad[...]

: The Federal Trade Commission is seeking public comment on a petition from X Corp., formerly known as Twitter, to set aside or modify its 2022 settlement order with the agency . In its petition to the Commission, X Corp. cited several reasons why it believes that the order should either be set aside or modified so that it terminates at the end of 2026. The petition argues: The order was imposed on a company that no longer exists, that every individual responsible for the underlying failures has left the company and that X Corp. has since built a world-class privacy and data-protection program; The order no longer serves any valid regulatory purpose, imposing millions of dollars in needless costs to address obligations and protections already required by domestic and international privacy regimes and industry-recognized frameworks that X Corp. follows; Setting aside the order safeguards First Amendment values; and Setting aside or modifying the order is critical to advancing American leadership in artificial i[...]

In the past 10 years, the 31 European DPAs comprising the EDPB have worked together to ensure the consistent enforcement of the GDPR and a harmonised data protection approach across Europe.
