Foreign Exchange Restrictions And Public Policy In The Conflict Of Laws: Part Ii, Evsey S. Rashba
Foreign Exchange Restrictions And Public Policy In The Conflict Of Laws: Part Ii, Evsey S. Rashba
Michigan Law Review
Political Laws have been the subject of a much disputed doctrine. It has been stated by Dicey, and by other authoritative writers in various countries, that a court has no jurisdiction to entertain an action for the enforcement of a "political law" of a foreign state. The term "political law" is not limited to the field of public law. It is, of course, only exceptionally that rules governing the relations between a state and its citizens are given extraterritorial effect. The doctrine goes further. It holds that rules which are technically a part of private law, but which are designed …

Soviet Government Corporations, John N. Hazard
Michigan Law Review

Development of a mechanism of management has occupied Soviet jurists and …

One of the difficulties that every historian faces in trying to reconstruct a period of the past with the help of legal monuments is due to the great variety of relations existing between legal rules and social reality. So, e.g., legal monuments generally contain in an inextricable confusion at least two contradictory types of rules: rules which are a simple restatement …
The Legal Status Of The Netherlands, Bartholomew Landheer
The Legal Status Of The Netherlands, Bartholomew Landheer
Michigan Law Review
The transfer of the Netherlands Government to London involves a number of legal aspects which are of great interest. In the first place, the term "government" deserves a closer scrutiny. Under an absolute monarchy or a totalitarian form of government the king or ruler combines the legislative, executive and judicial powers. Under a democracy or a constitutional monarchy the situation becomes far more complicated.
It is stated in the Netherlands Constitution that the executive power is vested in the king. The legislative power, however, is exercised by the king and States-General together. Thus, if, as in the case of the …
