Expropriation, Threats Of Expropriation And Developmental Policy, Michael W. Gordon Jan 1974

Expropriation, Threats Of Expropriation And Developmental Policy, Michael W. Gordon

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

The transference of ownership to host nation control has been, nearly without exception, politically, rather than economically motivated. While there are often viable economic justifications for domestic ownership of the means of production, economic issues are often poorly expressed or arise not in the context of the prior justification for property transference, but rather as a later impediment, due to the inability of a developing nation's current economic resources to meet the demanded payment for the property takeovers.

Force And The Charter In The Seventies, Julius Stone Jan 1974

Force And The Charter In The Seventies, Julius Stone

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

Force and the Charter is a very complex problem. It imports not merely the place of force in the relations of States within the Charter of the United Nations, but also the residual rules of international law, which themselves are very much older-several centuries older at least-than the United Nations. These are the residual rules of international law, customary international law, as we call it, concerning the use of force, insofar as the Charter has not abrogated those rules.

Some Dilemmas Of An Internationalist In A World Of State Egoism, L.F.E. Goldie Jan 1974

Some Dilemmas Of An Internationalist In A World Of State Egoism, L.F.E. Goldie

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

The validity of any statement about international law turns on the meaning one is prepared to give the term. To say that the obligation to pay prompt, adequate and effective compensation for the expropriation of alien property derives from the body of traditional customary international law pertaining to the responsibility of states, or that the obligation derives from domestic (constitutional), and not international law at all, is to speak without clear referent. Clarity of both intent and ideology are absolute necessities.
