The Need To Utilize International Arbitration, Gerald Aksen

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

I have been asked to discuss how to convince United States businessmen of the need for utilizing international arbitration. Basically, however, there is a realistic need for this well recognized form of alternative dispute settlement. Primarily, international arbitration affords companies the ability to avoid the uncertainties and complexities of foreign litigation. I found it interesting that Professor Vagts used the word "paradox" in referring to the existence of both the lack of effective treaties on the enforcement of foreign judgments and the host of treaties on the enforcement of foreign arbitral awards. Why is it a paradox? International arbitration was …

At the outset, I owe an obligation to you and to my fellow panelists to reveal my true colors. Following the remarks of Mr. Aksen and Mr. Rhodes, you would be entitled to expect me to give some examples of how some distressed clients entered this wonderful world of arbitration, how the scales fell from their corporate eyes, and how their problems were solved.

Fraud On The Market: A Criticism Of Dispensing With Reliance Requirements In Certain Open Market Transactions, Barbara Black

Faculty Articles and Other Publications

The still-developing fraud on the market theory is the primary method by which securitiesf raudp laintiffs have attempted either to relax or eliminate the troubling reliance and causation requirements. Professor Black examines this emerging theory and suggests that the traditional common-lawfraud concepts that focus on reliance and causation still have validity and continue, even in this context, to offer appropriate
limitations on liability. The Article analyzes cases that have reduced or ignored this reliance element and explains why the legal concepts from which the fraud on the market theory evolved demand stricter adherence to reliance in certain markets but not …

Drafting The Arbitration Clause, Whitmore Gray

Book Chapters

Providing in the contract for ways to resolve disputes that may arise presents a substantial challenge to the lawyer. In one sense this is what he or she is doing in general in contract drafting--anticipating misunderstandings or problems which experience indicates are likely to arise, and trying to provide clear answers in advance. When it comes to drafting a specific clause for the resolution of further disputes which may arise, however, many lawyers are at a substantial disadvantage. The task comes at the end of the substantive negotiations. The client does not want to focus on or draw the other …
