Constitutional Law—The Scope Of The Commerce Clause In International Commerce—Japan Line, Ltd. V. County Of Los Angeles, 441 U.S. 434 (1979), Laura Treadgold Oles
Washington Law Review
By exempting containers in international commerce from local ad valorem property taxes, the Japan Line Court's interpretation of the commerce clause gives foreign merchants an advantage over their domestic competitors. The Court, lacking alternative grounds for exempting foreign containers from the state tax, concluded that the commerce clause justifies such disparate treatment. Rather than adopting an interpretation of the commerce clause which is inconsistent with its purpose, the Court should have upheld the tax and left the difficult question of international tax policy to be resolved comprehensively in a more appropriate forum.

Beating a Rap? Defendants Found Incompetent to Stand Trial
In this book, Henry Steadman, Director of the Special Projects Research Unit of the New York State Department of Mental Hygiene, addresses the common suspicion that defense attorneys enable their clients to escape criminal charges by having the clients declared incompetent to stand trial. Such suspicion, he argues, results both from public confusion over the legal and psychiatric issues in a competency hearing and from a lack of understanding (even among experts) about the practical results that flow from a determination of incompetency.

In 1967 the British government devalued the pound as against the dollar. The year 1969 witnessed the floating of the German mark. More recently the dollar has fluctuated widely in international money markets. Under presently accepted accounting principles United States multinational corporations are required to convert their foreign assets and liabilities into dollars at the year's end rate of exchange. When a foreign currency is devalued against the dollar, the value of that foreign subsidiary's assets also declines. In a corporation's consolidated financial statement such a drop in value may distract investors from the corporation's operating successes, with a corresponding …

The New Anti-Dumping Procedures Of The Trade Agreements Act Of 1979: Does It Create A New Non-Tariff Trade Barrier, Timothy J. Patenode
The New Anti-Dumping Procedures Of The Trade Agreements Act Of 1979: Does It Create A New Non-Tariff Trade Barrier, Timothy J. Patenode
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
The Trade Agreements Acts of 19791 contains what is likely to be the most extensive modification of U.S. anti-dumping law since the passage of the original Antidumping Act of 1921.2 The new law makes five significant changes in anti-dumping investigation procedures which are intended to streamline investigations, to provide prompter and more effective relief for domestic industries threatened by unfair foreign competition, and to provide the agencies with a clearer defini- tion of their responsibilities.3 These worthy intentions, however, have produced a system that is unfairly burdensome to foreign manufacturers and domestic import- ers

Reorganization Plan No. 3 Of 1979: Revamping The U.S. Trade Machinery, Eliot B. Schreiber
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
The United States is no longer the successful competitor it once was in the international marketplace.I During the last decade, concern has grown in both the national and international communities about the way in which United States trade policy is formulated and imple- mented. This concern has resulted in a reorganized and strengthened U.S. trade machinery. Briefly, the Carter Administration's new Reor- ganization Plan No. 3 of 19792 has placed the responsibility for the negotiation of foreign trade matters and for the formulation of trade policy in the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR), and has called upon …

Competition, Trade, And The Antitrust Division: 1981, Joel Davidow
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
One of the primary purposes-some would say the primary pur- pose--of antitrust laws is to promote efficient allocation of resources and maximum consumer choice by preventing and punishing artificial barriers to competition and unreasonable restraints of trade.' The An- titrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice has therefore con- cerned itself with the task of breaking down those barriers. In the domestic field, this policy has traditionally taken the form of prosecut- ing persons and corporations who engage in price fixing or market divi- sion, or who obtain or maintain monopoly power by means of abusive practices. More recently, …

Gatt Dispute Settlements: A New Beginning In International And U.S. Trade Law, Donald E. Dekieffer
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Although the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT)' has been in existence for over two decades, a workable system has only recently developed for resolving disputes between contracting parties. Since its inception, the GATT has been designed to promote the grad- ual dissolution of trade barriers between the major mercantile countries of the world.2 In its early years, the GATT approached this ambitious goal solely through irregular negotiating "rounds" at which the Con- tracting Parties (the nations signatory to the GATT) mutually agreed to reduce their tariff barriers. There was little attempt to develop an effec- tive enforcement mechanism …
The Export Administration Act Of 1979: An Examination Of Foreign Availability Of Controlled Goods And Technologies, Shirley Miller Dvorin
The Export Administration Act Of 1979: An Examination Of Foreign Availability Of Controlled Goods And Technologies, Shirley Miller Dvorin
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
The Export Administration Act of 19791 amended thirty years of legislative controls over the export of advanced technology2 to the So- viet Union and other non-market economy countries.' Since first en- acted, these post-World War II export controls attempted to reconcile the conflicting objectives of protecting national security while promot- ing United States international trade.4 Nonetheless, the increasing availability of advanced goods and technologies from foreign sources to communist nations has undermined both these objectives.
Establishing American Trading Companies, Franklin A. Cole
Establishing American Trading Companies, Franklin A. Cole
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
On September 3, 1980, the United States Senate, by unanimous vote, passed landmark legislation designed to increase American ex- ports of products and services by encouraging formation of U.S. export trading companies.' The Export Trading Company Act of 1980,2 rein- troduced and at this writing awaiting approval by a new Congress,3 is a significant first step in offering American companies, particularly those of small and medium size, the opportunity to enter markets on a par with their international foreign competitors. The Act moderates re- strictions that have blocked the growth of full-range export trade ser- vice companies that would help …

The International Trade Commission asserted that for most of 1978 and probably for the indefinite future, the TPM was "the greatest single factor influencing the conditions of competition" in the U.S. steel industry. The precise contours of this influence are uncertain. While it is premature to assess adequately the economic impact of the TPM, it is possible to make some observations vis-a-vis our national antitrust policy goals. The TPM, like the steel VRA's of 1972, has had no discernable impact on increasing efficiency through expansion, modernization or development of domestic steel-making technology. The TPM, however, does have an impact on …

Revenue Seeking: A Generalization Of The Theory Of Tariffs, Jagdish N. Bhagwati, T.N. Srinivasan
Revenue Seeking: A Generalization Of The Theory Of Tariffs, Jagdish N. Bhagwati, T.N. Srinivasan
Faculty Scholarship
The theory of commercial policy has recently addressed three phenomena: (i) tariff (quota) seeking or lobbying by potential beneficiaries for the imposition of a tariff (quota), (ii) tariff (quota) evasion, and (iii) rent seeking or lobbying for getting an allocation of the import quota to earn the rents generated. Revenue seeking or lobbying to secure a share in the disposition of the tariff revenues is analyzed here. It is shown that revenue seeking may, even for a small country, result in a reduction in importable output. Furthermore, revenue seeking may be welfare improving. Rent seeking may be welfare improving as …
