Can International Law Provide Extra-Constitutional Protection For Excludable Aliens?, Louis B. Sohn
Scholarly Works
This paper focuses on the problems of those who do not qualify for a regular admission as refugees, but are detained at the entrance point, or are detained in the United States after being released on temporary parole or pending repatriation. The thesis I shall try to defend is that these persons must be treated according to basic rules of humanitarian law; that they are entitled to be treated as human beings, regardless of any particular legislation or administrative regulations depriving them of basic legal protection granted to citizens and regular residents of the country.

A History Of Gatt Unfair Trade Remedy Law--Confusion Of Purposes, John J. Barceló Iii
A History Of Gatt Unfair Trade Remedy Law--Confusion Of Purposes, John J. Barceló Iii
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
This paper presents an analytical history of anti-dumping and anti-subsidy law in GATT and its member countries. In recent years this body of ‘unfair trade remedy’ law has flourished in the western trading system. Important trading countries have adopted new or expanded anti-dumping and anti-subsidy laws and imposed trade-blocking remedies under them more frequently than ever before. I try to explain in this essay how and why these laws--which I view as protectionist--have prospered and become so rooted in GATT and its member countries.

Our First Televised Genocide, Kenneth Lasson

It is absolutely appalling that we have come so casually to observe the carnage, so passively to view the starvation over breakfast papers or dinnertime newscasts, so helplessly to watch these totally bereft human beings trudging barefoot over treacherous terrain toward the middle of nowhere.
There are other questions as well, of course, not as easily answered. Where are all their voices now, those demonstrators who so vociferously opposed war, ostensibly out of an overweening reverence for life? Is the latter-day holocaust being systematically perpetrated in northern Iraq any less horrifying than a direct hit on a camouflaged bomb shelter …
The Unification Of Germany And International Law, Frans Von Der Dunk, Peter H. Kooijmans
The Unification Of Germany And International Law, Frans Von Der Dunk, Peter H. Kooijmans
Space, Cyber, and Telecommunications Law Program: Faculty Publications
The process of German unification, at least as far as its international legal aspects are concerned, is almost complete now. After the first Staatsvertrag, creating as of July 1, 1990, a monetary union between the Federal Republic of Germany ("FRG") and the German Democratic Republic ("GDR"), the second Staatsvertrag uniting the two States as of October 3 legally sealed the inter-German aspects of the unification.
At the same time, the September 12 Treaty between the four former occupation powers—the United States, the Soviet Union, Great Britain and France—and the two former occupied German States took care of the remaining …

Faculty Articles and Papers
The recent developments in Eastern Europe and the Persian Gulf dramatize the efforts of the United States to muster the support of other states and international organizations in asserting principles of international law and process. These diplomatic initiatives to win a global consensus about the rule of law in international politics reflect an important turn in U.S. policy. In the past few decades the United States has mostly enunciated a parochial rhetoric regarding international law, treating it either as a sort of extension of United States law or as a flexible framework that somehow always promoted U.S. legal and political …

Obscured Visions: Policy, Power, And Discretion In Transnational Discovery, David J. Gerber
All Faculty Scholarship
This Essay addresses issues involving the discovery of information located outside the United States. Specifically, it deals with some of the problems created by the lack of appropriate limits on United States discovery procedures. Professor Gerber first analyzes the extent of judicial discretion in the United States in matters concerning extraterritorial discovery. The analysis encompasses the underlying legal bases for the exercise of discretion as well as the political and institutional factors that influence the uses of discretion.
Next, the Essay focuses on the international consequences of the virtually unlimited discretion courts in the United States exercise in discovery matter. …

Publications
In this Article, the author examines ways that legal aid advocacy organizations in the U.S. can utilize international human rights doctrine and procedures to advance the interests of poor and marginalized Americans in domestic and foreign venues. This is a sympathetic account of some of the efforts undertaken by legal services lawyers in this burgeoning field of law. The first section briefly describes the history and structure of the quasi-public legal aid programs funded by the Legal Services Corporation (LSC). Section two details practical reasons why attorneys may want to look to international instruments or forums to achieve their clients' …
Is The Uniform Foreign Money-Judgments Recognition Act Potentially Unconstitutional? If So, Should The Texas Cure Be Adopted Elsewhere?, Jon H. Sylvester, Richard J. Graving
Is The Uniform Foreign Money-Judgments Recognition Act Potentially Unconstitutional? If So, Should The Texas Cure Be Adopted Elsewhere?, Jon H. Sylvester, Richard J. Graving
Publications
Recent political events of historic and global proportion afford a wealth of challenge and opportunity for international legal practice. The breakup of the former Soviet Union, the reunification of Germany, and, in general, the collapse of command-style central planning as a viable approach to economic organization seem certain to expedite globalization of markets and increase the volume of international business transactions. An increase in transactions means an increase in disputes. While arbitration is generally considered the preferred device for resolving transnational business disputes, litigation is frequently unavoidable, either as a substitute for arbitration or as a consequence of it. As …

All Faculty Scholarship
Ob in Deutschland oder in den Vereinigten Staaten, der Sachverstaendige spielt haeufig eine entscheidende Rolle in einem Patentrechtsstreit. Die Erforschung der Tatsachen wie auch die Anwendung des Rechts erfordern oft ein technisches Verstaendnis, das nur ein Experte liefern kann. Das Problem, wie diese Informationen demjenigen, der das Urteil faellen muss, nahegebracht werden koennen, stellt sich in beiden Systemen gleichermassen. Allerdings sind die Rolle des Sachverstaendigen und die Art, wie diese Informationen uebertragen werden, hier und dort so verschieden, dass deutsche Juristen schwere Enttaeuschungen, wenn nicht sogar empfindliche Niederlagen befuerchten muessen, wenn sie ihre Vorstellungen und Erfahrungen auf den amerikanischen Prozess …

The Expert In U.S. And German Patent Litigation, James Maxeiner
All Faculty Scholarship
The expert often plays a crucial role in patent litigation in both Germany and the United States. Determination of facts and application of law to facts frequently require a technical understanding that only an expert can provide. Despite the similarity of the problem of conveying information to the decision-maker, the role of the expert in the two systems and the manner in which the problem of providing technical knowledge necessary for the decision is solved are so very different, that German jurists who transfer their German experiences and expectations over to US procedures, are in danger of experiencing great disappointment …
Introduction To Greek Law, Christopher L. Blakesley
Introduction To Greek Law, Christopher L. Blakesley
Scholarly Works
Greek Law, developed under the stewardship of Professor Konstantinos Kerameus, takes on his character, being a solid, careful work of first rate scholarship. It presents the Greek legal system, the substance of each part of its civil public and penal law and procedure, in a series of well-written and insightful chapters by many of the best Greek scholars (in the United States and in Greece) on each subject. The book is important, because Greece is in the Common Market and Council of Europe, and because the continental and even the common law systems owe their development to the Ro- man-Byzantine …

Back To The Future And Up To The Sky: Legal Implications Of ‘Open Skies’ Inspection For Arms Control, David A. Koplow
Back To The Future And Up To The Sky: Legal Implications Of ‘Open Skies’ Inspection For Arms Control, David A. Koplow
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
The United States, the Soviet Union, and their respective allies are currently engaged in the negotiation of a new arms control agreement on "Open Skies," reviving a failed concept from the 1950s. The treaty would permit each country to overfly the others on short notice and with great frequency, and to use diverse, sophisticated sensors to photograph key military and defense-related installations. This type of mutual intelligencegathering arrangement offers great advantages for national security and global stability, reducing the possibility of surprise attack and accordingly mitigating the necessity for maintaining large, offsetting military deployments. At the same time, however, the …
