- W772063546 abstract "I. INTRODUCTIONIn August 2008, the world turned its attention to a conflict in an oft-forgotten part of Eastern Europe: the border between Georgia and Russia. The conflict was not over the new Russian natural gas pipeline that the Georgian government vehemently opposed.1 Rather, it was the culmination of decades of fighting between the Georgian government and rebels in the state's northern regions of South Ossetia and Abkhazia.2 The Georgian government sought to quash local independence movements in the two regions that had resurrected with newfound vengeance in late 2006.3 South Osse- tian rebels responded in force, and both sides accused the other of horrific human rights violations.4 The fighting escalated when Russia entered the war on August 7-8, 2008.5 As South Ossetia's primary ally and a longtime supporter of the independence move- ment, Russia moved its troops into the region overnight and pum- meled the Georgian capital with a series of airstrikes.6 Cyberwarfare threatened Georgian stability amidst growing calls by U.N. member for a ceasefire.7 The eventual ceasefire did little to resolve the question of South Ossetia's legal or political status, and recent events have demonstrated that regional peace is tenuous at best.8In today's world, the lines between are blurring. Questions about accountability and responsibility for humanitarian violations or black market business deals threaten to upset the traditional legal mechanisms for coping with conflict in the international community.9 States commonly known as states face the challenge of protecting their sovereign control over largely autono- mous domestic regions that boast both a separate government and strong economic ties to other states.10 Parent also must deal with the atrocities that these de facto political entities perpetrate both domestically and abroad by deferring blame and labeling and punishing the de facto as traitors or rebels who disregard human safety.11 Because no international court has jurisdiction over these regions, there is a serious risk that these de facto states-commonly known as states12-can completely disregard basic tenets of humanitarian and economic standards and escape responsibility for violations of international law.13The rise of de facto states in regions such as South Ossetia has generated a need for a new international legal approach by which to hold these self-governing entities accounta- ble to the human rights and trade standards of the international system.14 Traditional approaches to this question cannot balance respect for sovereign claims by the parent state with the demands of regional political entities. South Ossetia serves as a prime exam- ple of this conflict. Concerns about Russian influence and geopo- litical instability make it unlikely that the international community will rely on the traditional route of statehood to respond to the crisis. Furthermore, hostility between the Georgian government and the de facto leaders in South Ossetia makes it impossible for the international community to continue ignoring the explosive relationship between the two entities.This Note proposes that the international community use the World Trade Organization (WTO) to engage South Ossetia in the international system because it would incorporate the region into a legal regime of arbitration through qualified recognition of its eco- nomic independence. This solution to the problems of accounta- bility and integration respects the existing international legal order of while holding parties accountable for violations of interna- tional law. By tailoring the model used to integrate Taiwan, the international community can ease tensions in the region and grant South Ossetians the international recognition that they desire.Part II of this Note examines the entity known as the state. It first looks at what constitutes a phantom state and then turns to the phantom state that is the focus of this Note: South Ossetia. …" @default.
