Antitrust Regulation Within The European Economic Community, Richard M. Buxbaum Sep 2012

Antitrust Regulation Within The European Economic Community, Richard M. Buxbaum

Richard M. Buxbaum

The article presents information on the antitrust regulation within the European Economic Community. The antitrust provisions of the Rome Treaty are quite straightforward. The escape clause in article 85(3), reflecting French insistence on "reasonable" competition, will unquestionably prove to be the keystone to any eventual Community antitrust law. It is so general that its interpretation is unpredictable. An otherwise null and void practice may be approved if it promotes economic progress while reserving to the consumer an equitable share of the resulting advantages, and neither is an unnecessary restriction nor eliminates competition in a substantial part of the relevant market. …

Practical Training In Law In The Netherlands: Big Law Model Or Clinical Model, And The Call Of Public Interest Law, Richard J. Wilson Jan 2012

Practical Training In Law In The Netherlands: Big Law Model Or Clinical Model, And The Call Of Public Interest Law, Richard J. Wilson

Richard J. Wilson

This article identifies two models now at work in the Netherlands, models that present potentially competing visions of practical training for law graduates seeking entry into the legal profession. The first is the Law Firm School, a new innovation in 2009, designed and funded by 14 major Amsterdam law firms, firms that make up part of what is often called Big Law. The Law Firm School model is embedded within the traditional apprenticeship training for all lawyers, but is available only to associates of the participating firms. The second model is clinical legal education, which ideally is offered as part …


Rio + 20: What Difference Has Two Decades Made To State Practice In The Regulation Of Invasive Alien Species?*, Sophie Riley Dec 2011

Rio + 20: What Difference Has Two Decades Made To State Practice In The Regulation Of Invasive Alien Species?*, Sophie Riley

Sophie Riley

Invasive alien species (IAS) are alien species that threaten ecosystems, habitats or other species. Article 8(h) of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) requires the contracting parties to ‘prevent the introduction of or control or eradicate those alien species that threaten ecosystems, habitats or species’. Members are also required to lodge National Reports with the secretariat of the CBD, specifying how they are fulfilling their international obligations with respect to IAS. While the threats to biodiversity posed by IAS have been extensively documented, to date, no study has examined States’ perceptions of their IAS regimes. This paper collects and analyses …

Vertical Dimensions In The Quality Of Law, Bartram Brown Dec 2011

Vertical Dimensions In The Quality Of Law, Bartram Brown

Bartram Brown

There are compelling reasons for concern about the quality of law. Law is essential to structuring the social relations of the state. Thomas Jefferson famously wrote that life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are God-given unalienable rights, and that the purpose of governments is to secure these rights on behalf of the governed. Whether the law of a state will be successful in this task depends upon the quality of that law. And, due to the vast changes in the international legal system so presciently anticipated by Wolfgang Friedmann in the 1960s, concern about the quality of law must, …
