China's Participation In The Wto: A Lawyer's Perspective, Henry Gao Jan 2007

China's Participation In The Wto: A Lawyer's Perspective, Henry Gao

Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law

On 10 November 2001, China finally acceded to the World Trade Organization (WTO) after a marathon negotiation spanning 15 years. China's membership in the WTO raises interesting questions for both the WTO and China. For the WTO, the question is how to deal with China?a huge country of growing importance as a major global exporter and importer but is still in economic transition. For China, the question is how to implement the numerous obligations in the WTO accession package. This paper sets out by reviewing China's experience in the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and the WTO. It …

Author's Response, John H. Jackson

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

It is a privilege for me to have received the attention to my latest book of such a trio of expertise and scholarly balanced policy perspectives from three different disciplines : economics, law, and diplomacy. It is also a privilege and honor for me to receive from each of these three sometimes divergent disciplines a general overall recognition of what I sought to accomplish in this book. I congratulate the reviewers. The book has an intricate logical structure but struggles with huge amounts of empirical information, in a purposefully short work. All three authors have recognized these features, and seem …


Zapata Retold: Attorneys' Fees Are (Still) Not Governed By The Cisg, Harry Flechtner, Joseph Lookofsky Jan 2007

Zapata Retold: Attorneys' Fees Are (Still) Not Governed By The Cisg, Harry Flechtner, Joseph Lookofsky

Articles

In this work, the authors reiterate and expand on their conclusion that the question of reimbursement for attorney fees incurred in the course of litigating a claim under the United Nations Sales Convention (CISG) is beyond the scope of the CISG, and is governed by domestic law. As discussed in the paper, this conclusion is in line with a recent CISG Advisory Council Opinion (Advisory Council Opinion No. 6) dealing with the calculation of damages under Article 74 of the CISG. We argue that relegating to domestic law the question of recovering attorney fees incurred during litigation over a CISG …


Article Iii And Supranational Judicial Review, Henry Paul Monaghan Jan 2007

Article Iii And Supranational Judicial Review, Henry Paul Monaghan

Faculty Scholarship

With the rise of supranational legislative bodies, the use of supranational adjudicatory bodies has also increased. These adjudicatory bodies have even been allowed to review the domestic law decisions offederal administrative agencies, and their decisions are insulated from any review by Article III courts. These developments have been met by intense opposition. This Article addresses the question whether, as claimed by several writers, the emerging supranational adjudicatory order impermissibly contravenes the "essential attributes of the judicial power established by Article III." Examining two case studies, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the Supreme Court's recent decisions regarding Article …

La Economía Navarra: Productividad Y Competitividad Del Sector Exterior, Javier Agudo Dec 2006

La Economía Navarra: Productividad Y Competitividad Del Sector Exterior, Javier Agudo

Javier Agudo

La economía Navarra es una economía fundamentalmente industrial. Debido a esta característica, Navarra podría sufrir de una manera muy dura los efectos de una deslocalización industrial, más por ejemplo que una región cuya principal fuente de ingresos sea el turismo. Por estas razones, Navarra debe estar especialmente preocupada por la pérdida de productividad de la economía española y, sobre todo, debe plantearse muy seriamente qué medidas tomar para solucionarlo.


The Gats And Legal Services In Limerick, Laurel S. Terry Dec 2006

The Gats And Legal Services In Limerick, Laurel S. Terry

Laurel S. Terry

One of the most significant regulatory developments for legal services is their inclusion in the 1994 General Agreement on Trade in Services or GATS. The GATS was the first world trade agreement to cover services rather than goods and it applies to legal services. The GATS in Limerick is a light-hearted but nonetheless serious effort to address the most important legal services-related GATS developments in the last twelve years. These verses cover the basic principles of the GATS, the ongoing market access negotiations and the efforts to develop disciplines on domestic regulation.
