Two Tailors: The Pursuit Of Racial Justice In 1970s Chicago, Susan L. Waysdorf
University of the District of Columbia Law Review
Every legal case has a story behind it, and some, like this one, also have a legacy.

The Ties That Bind? Regionalism, Commercial Treaties, And The Future Of Global Economic Integration, Chris Brummer
The Ties That Bind? Regionalism, Commercial Treaties, And The Future Of Global Economic Integration, Chris Brummer
Vanderbilt Law Review
A revolutionary shift in international cooperation is underway. Many governments, frustrated with dissension hampering multilateral trade reform at the World Trade Organization ("WTO"), are now turning to bilateral and regional treaties to forward their commercial interests.1 Under these agreements, which rocketed from fewer than 390 in 1989 to more than 2,400 today,2 states have relinquished key aspects of their economic sovereignty to participate in two-party pacts and regional trade clubs like the North American Free Trade Agreement ("NAFTA") and the European Union ("EU"). As a result of such cooperation, most countries no longer may levy tariffs easily, subsidize their domestic …
Why Arkansas Should Adopt The Revised Uniform Limited Liability Company Act, Carol R. Goforth
Why Arkansas Should Adopt The Revised Uniform Limited Liability Company Act, Carol R. Goforth
University of Arkansas at Little Rock Law Review
In 1993 "The Small Business Entity Tax Pass Through" Act for the first time authorized the organization of limited liability companies (LLCs) in Arkansas. This Act, which will be referred to in this article as the "Arkansas LLC Act" notwithstanding its unique actual name, has been subsequently amended more than once to remove some of the ambiguities created by the initial legislation.
In August 1994, the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws (NCCUSL) promulgated a Uniform Limited Liability Company Act (ULLCA). Unfortunately for proponents of uniformity, the ULLCA was introduced after most states (including Arkansas) had already enacted …
International Commerce And Undocumented Workers: Using Trade To Secure Labor Rights, Laura Jakubowski
International Commerce And Undocumented Workers: Using Trade To Secure Labor Rights, Laura Jakubowski
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies
This article explores the rights of illegal immigrants and undocumented workers throughout the world. International treaties have attempted to deal with the rights of undocumented workers, but few countries have been willing to sign on to the treaties. This article argues that undocumented workers should have more expansive rights, and that international trade agreements and institutions should be used where human rights and domestic solutions have failed to guarantee the rights of the most vulnerable workers.

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

Iraq, Secured Transactions, And The Promise Of Islamic Law, Mark J. Sundahl
Iraq, Secured Transactions, And The Promise Of Islamic Law, Mark J. Sundahl
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
When Iraq regains political stability, major reconstruction projects will have to be funded and local businesses will need financing in order to gain a foothold in the new economy. In order to attract the necessary capital, the Iraqi law of secured transactions must be reformed to allow for lenders to take security in the assets of their borrowers. However, the challenge of reforming Iraqi commercial law is complicated by the requirement under the new Iraqi Constitution that any new statutes enacted by the Iraqi legislature comply with the principles of Islamic law. This Article sets forth proposals for reform that …
