8-DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS FRAMEWORK
Evaluation Criteria: This article is assessed using the following 8 dimensions with proper citation of sources:
1. Definitions: Are terms clearly defined? Is a sound logical framework present? Which logical fallacies appear (circular reasoning, false dichotomies, category errors, equivocation)? Citations required.
2. Legal Clarity: Based on sound logic, is the convention legally clear and understandable for enforcement? Can it be implemented consistently? Legal precedents cited.
3. Sovereignty Impact: Does this respect diverse legal systems and state sovereignty? Does it allow legitimate cultural and legal variation? International law sources cited.
4. Victim Protection: Does this genuinely enhance safety and protection for victims? Are there unintended harms to vulnerable groups? Research evidence cited.
5. Bad Actor Exploitability: Can this be weaponized for state repression, perpetrator manipulation, false accusations, or selective enforcement? Case studies cited.
6. Practical Feasibility: Can states actually implement this? Are resources, infrastructure, and institutional capacity requirements realistic? Implementation data cited.
7. Unintended Consequences: What negative externalities might emerge? Are there perverse incentives or unforeseen harms? Policy analysis cited.
8. Cultural Sensitivity: Does this allow for legitimate cultural variation while maintaining core protections? Does it impose specific ideological frameworks? Comparative cultural studies cited.
