After The Fall: Financial Crisis And The International Order, Robert B. Ahdieh
After The Fall: Financial Crisis And The International Order, Robert B. Ahdieh
Faculty Scholarship
Recent years have challenged the international order to a degree not seen since World War II — and perhaps the Great Depression. As the U.S. housing crisis metastasized into a financial and economic crisis of grave proportions, and spread to nearly every corner of the globe, the strength of our international institutions — the International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organization, the Group of Twenty, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, and others — was tested as never before. Likewise tested, were the limits of our national commitment to those institutions, to our international obligations, and to global engagement more …

The Environmental Challenge Of The Common Market In South America: Rema Under Mercosur, Pedro Villegas
Golden Gate University Law Review

Second, the article offers a profile of current Southern Cone environmental challenges. Third, the article lays out MERCOSUR's environmental policies and the paucity of progress made in adequately addressing those environmental challenges.

The research in this paper has two objectives. Beginning with an examination of the historical development of how financial reporting standards are set in the United States and around the world, the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the International Accounting Standards Board will be studied.

After detailing the historical development of each of the two boards and the sets of standards they maintain, the paper continues …

Nature Or Nurture? Judicial Lawmaking In The European Court Of Justice And The Andean Tribunal Of Justice, Laurence R. Helfer, Karen J. Alter
Nature Or Nurture? Judicial Lawmaking In The European Court Of Justice And The Andean Tribunal Of Justice, Laurence R. Helfer, Karen J. Alter
Faculty Scholarship
Are international courts power-seeking by nature, expanding the reach and scope of international rules and the courts’ authority where permissive conditions allow? Or, does expansionist lawmaking require special nurturing?

We argue that international judges are more likely to become expansionist lawmakers where they are supported by substate interlocutors and compliance constituencies, including government officials, advocacy networks, national judges, and administrative agencies.
