The Teetotalling Winebibber: A Case Study For The International Sale Of Goods, Stephen M. Shrewsbury
Pace International Law Review
Case studies are very effective pedagogical tools available to business and legal educators. Hypothetical fact patterns provide instructors an additional advantage of being able to modify facts to target particular learning goals for students. This article presents a substantial case study and teaching notes for a hypothetical international sale of goods transaction. The facts presented will necessitate student research and examination of a wide range of legal issues related to contract negotiation and interpretation, shipping and related difficulties that might arise during contract execution, and issues related to disputes over the quality of goods. Questions in the study require students …

Brooklyn Journal of Corporate, Financial & Commercial Law
In Minilateralism: How Trade Alliances, Soft Law, and Financial Engineering Are Redefining Economic Statecraft, Professor Chris Brummer embraces the complexity of the global economic system and its regulation by exploring the emerging role and dominance of varying strands of economic collaboration and regulation that he collectively refers to as “minilateralism.” In describing the turn toward minilateralism, Brummer notes a number of key features of this new minilateral system, including a shift away from global cooperation to strategic alliances composed of the smallest group necessary to achieve a particular goal, a turn from formal treaties to informal non-binding accords and other …

This Article discusses the history, purposes and provisions of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and traces its use and enforcement activity from 1977 to the present.

The manuscript also includes numerous charts reporting on key cases and enforcement activities over the last thirty-three years by the DOJ and SEC, as well as other information and statistics regarding the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
Transnational Bribery: The Big Questions, Steven R. Salbu
Transnational Bribery: The Big Questions, Steven R. Salbu
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
During the past few years, I have written extensively on the subject of transnational bribery. My articles have examined several aspects of this serious problem,' including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA"), 2 re-cent multilateral global conventions to fight bribery,3 and the comparative costs and benefits of legislative versus systemic or institutional forms of change.4 This body of work also has addressed some of the problems that can accompany aggressive legal remedies, such as potential cultural imperialism5 and global discord.6 This examination has been rewarding, and it has spurred a rich exchange with a number of very talented scholars, as …
Getting From Salbu To The Tipping Point: The Role Of Corporate Action Within A Portfolio Of Anti-Corruption Strategies, Thomas W. Dunfee, David Hess
Getting From Salbu To The Tipping Point: The Role Of Corporate Action Within A Portfolio Of Anti-Corruption Strategies, Thomas W. Dunfee, David Hess
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Salbu's "big questions" identify core issues for scholars on bribery and corruption. Salbu asks: (1) when may it be ethical to pay a bribe, (2) whether the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act's ("FCPA") provisions on "routine government action" permit us to distinguish between appropriate and inappropriate facilitative payments, (3) whether non-governmental organizations ("NGOs") should supplant the role of governments in fighting corruption, and (4) whether corporate principles can have an impact in the fight against corruption. Our focus is primarily on the latter question, but encompasses all of them. Implicit in Salbu's list is the question of whether a single magic …

Corporate Compliance With The Fcpa, Albert L. Beswick
Corporate Compliance With The Fcpa, Albert L. Beswick
Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce
American corporations have learned to live reasonably with, if not actually love, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Congress is currently being told that there are things that need correcting in the Act. Congress will eventually face these problems rather seriously so that a bill in some form will amend some of the things wrong with the Act. It is doubtful that any business person of good faith thinks there is anything wrong with the theses behind the Act. Business has learned, to its benefit, to live with the requirements of the Act.
