Cultural Heritage and The Common Heritage of Humankind are novel legal tools that have been developed and play a key role in the law of tourism and sustainable development. There are many ways that one state can keep another state from benefiting from its cultural heritage, but international law is there to protect the rights of the host state so that the host can provide travel products and seek sustainable financial gains through tourism. When considering tourism and sustainable development, treaty drafters and legislatures have looked carefully at the products that are produced for touristic purposes; how they are utilized, consumed, reproduced and preserved. Both the needs of the host state and people of that state are reflected in Cultural Heritage law along with its rights, duties, and obligations. The greater needs of humanity are reflected in the Common Heritage of Humankind law with its rights, duties and obligations.

In the pandemic contact tracing post 9-11 era of high technology global security, there is no single determinate structure for the application of basic international law principles. The legal terms in practice do not point at things, persons, structures, nor even at other words with reliable predictability. The novelty of the technologies used results in referent persons, locales, situations and governing laws being subject to the broadest interpretive license. Meanwhile, the originating spirit found in international legal rules protecting civilians, such as the Geneva Conventions, has been applied to electronic attacks during times of armed conflict. This essay discusses the semantic importance of "threat, crime, attack, security" language and the referent persons conducting the activities. A linguistic deconstruction of the techniques of intel...
