International Order After The Financial Crisis, Harold James
International Order After The Financial Crisis, Harold James
Penn State Journal of Law & International Affairs
How is international order built, and how is it legitimate, in a world in which political and economic foundations are rapidly shifting? What are the consequences of the rise of major new powers for the structure and the functioning of the international system? Great wars or great financial crises have in the past led to disorientation about the moral foundations of society, domestically and internationally. The paper examines parallels with the Great Depression, and in particular the weakening of multilateralism and of small political units, and the strengthening of large powers with hegemonic claims. The paper then turns to an …

The Balance Of Power, Public Goods, And The Lost Art Of Grand Strategy: American Policy Toward The Persian Gulf And Rising Asia In The 21st Century, Flynt Leverett, Hillary Mann Leverett
Penn State Journal of Law & International Affairs
An important driver of relative decline in America’s international standing is the failure of its political elites to define reality-based foreign policy goals and to relate the diplomatic, economic, and military means at Washington’s disposal to realizing them—the essence of “grand strategy.” For several decades, American policy has been pulled in opposite directions by two competing models of grand strategy. In one—the leadership model—America maximizes its international standing by adroitly managing regional and global power balances and promoting the processes of economic liberalization known collectively as globalization. In the second model—the transformation model—America seeks not to manage power balances but …
China In Africa And The Law, Salvatore Mancuso
China In Africa And The Law, Salvatore Mancuso
Annual Survey of International & Comparative Law
This paper is based on the enormous amount of Chinese investments in Africa, with the objective of considering the legal aspects involved therein. Under international business law, commercial relations are usually ruled according to the law of the country hosting the investment.
This paper will examine the challenges presented by Chinese investments in Africa given that the systems of business law in Africa are generally out of date and enforcement mechanisms under Western rule of law standards are often far from the reality. This observation is accompanied by the fact that there is presently a wide movement towards legal integration …

The Global Crackdown On Insider Trading: A Silver Lining To The "Great Reccession", Christopher P. Montagano
The Global Crackdown On Insider Trading: A Silver Lining To The "Great Reccession", Christopher P. Montagano
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies
The wake of the Great Recession marked a period of increased enforcement of insider trading violations by nation-states and self-regulatory organizations overseeing stock markets around the world. Before discussing the heightened global enforcement of insider trading, this Note explains the development of insider trading regulation by focusing on U.S., EU, and China law. This Note argues that the heightened global enforcement of insider trading violations in the wake of the Great Recession is a sign of a shared perception by market regulators around the world that there is a need to restore market confidence. Strong enforcement of insider trading regulations …
Dual Lenses: Using Theology And International Human Rights To Assess China's 2005 Regulations On Religion, Joel A. Nichols
Dual Lenses: Using Theology And International Human Rights To Assess China's 2005 Regulations On Religion, Joel A. Nichols
Pepperdine Law Review
In order for China to move forward in the international community, it needs to continue to improve its standing on human rights issues. Of particular concern to many observers is the relationship between the government and religion. While foreign religious organizations and missionaries are still heavily regulated by a 1994 law, a new law respecting religious citizens and organizations within China went into effect in 2005. This new law is salutary in some respects in that it provides a much fuller delineation of the relationship between government and religion within China, and it appears more solicitous toward religious rights than …

Chinese Border Disputes Revisited: Toward A Better Interdisciplinary Sythesis, Roda Mushkat
Chinese Border Disputes Revisited: Toward A Better Interdisciplinary Sythesis, Roda Mushkat
Richmond Journal of Global Law & Business
China has long been embroiled in a wide array of territorial disputes and has occasionally flexed its military muscle in the process. Its conduct in such situations has been of great theoretical and practical relevance and has attracted considerable attention from scholars across the socio-legal spectrum. Researchers in the field of international law have carefully surveyed official and semi-official Chinese pronouncements and practices, while their social science counterparts have rigorously dissected key behavioral patterns. This is an inherently complex subject that this two-pronged approach has not yet been able to comprehensively address, however, because scholars engaged in the enterprise have …
