The Debate Over The Adequacy Of The United States Approach To Acid Deposition: The Electric Utility Industry Perspective, Michael L. Teague, Maida O. Lerner, Mel S. Schulze, Norman W. Fichthorn
The Debate Over The Adequacy Of The United States Approach To Acid Deposition: The Electric Utility Industry Perspective, Michael L. Teague, Maida O. Lerner, Mel S. Schulze, Norman W. Fichthorn
West Virginia Law Review
Following some introductory remarks, this paper analyzes the issues of the acid deposition debate in two parts. First, it provides the electric utility industry perspective on the adequacy of the United States' current approach to air quality regulation. Second, it analyzes the recent litigation brought by the environmentalists in an effort to explain why their litigation strategy has been unsuccessful. Concern about the effect of the air pollution attendant with the industrial development of the United States has spawned massive efforts by the public and private sectors to establish and comply with requirements for environmental protection. Even though these efforts …
Corporate Risk Management And Risk Communication In The European Community And The United States, Michael S. Baram
Corporate Risk Management And Risk Communication In The European Community And The United States, Michael S. Baram
Faculty Scholarship
The responsibility of private firms to communicate hazard and risk information to government officials and persons at risk has emerged as one of the central features of corporate risk management in the European Community ("E.C.") and the United States ("U.S."). This function is commonly described as "risk communication."' In both the E.C. and the U.S., new legal requirements and public attitudes now promote corporate disclosure of hazard and risk information on an unprecedented scale.
Corporate risk management is a vast, complex field of activity that is largely unaddressed by commentators and unknown to the general public in both industrial societies. …

Missing The Point About State Takeover Statutes, Lyman Johnson, David Millon
Missing The Point About State Takeover Statutes, Lyman Johnson, David Millon
Michigan Law Review
In a recent article in this journal, Professor Richard Booth offers an extended appraisal of state legislation regulating hostile corporate takeovers. We think Booth's article requires comment for two reasons. The first reason is perhaps more obvious, though less interesting from our point of view. To be blunt, "unfairness" to shareholders due to coercion arising out of two-tier or partial offers simply does not occur with enough frequency to warrant a sixty-seven-page article in a major law review. According to recent congressional testimony by SEC Commissioner Cox, from 1982 to 1986 the number of two-tier offers declined from 18% of …

Towards The Harmonization Of Ec-Member States' Regulations On Takeover Bids: The Proposal For A Thirteenth Council Directive On Company Law, Nathalie Basaldua
Towards The Harmonization Of Ec-Member States' Regulations On Takeover Bids: The Proposal For A Thirteenth Council Directive On Company Law, Nathalie Basaldua
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
In its White Paper Program advocating the removal of all remaining internal barriers in the Common Market by 1992, the Commission for the European Communities ("Commission") expressed a need for harmonizing the laws of the Member States on takeover bids and announced that it would be bringing forward a proposal for a directive on this subject. Urged by the European Parliament and after consultations with experts from Member States and interest groups, the Commission adopted the Proposal for a Thirteenth Council Directive on Company Law concerning takeover and other general bids (the "Proposal" or "proposed Directive"). Before this text enters …

Cable Traffic And The First Amendment Must-Carry Under A Diversity Approach And Antitrust As Possible Alternative, Bruno Vandermeulen
Cable Traffic And The First Amendment Must-Carry Under A Diversity Approach And Antitrust As Possible Alternative, Bruno Vandermeulen
LLM Theses and Essays
Recent technological progress in the field of telecommunications has greatly changed the competitive structure between broadcasters, cable operators, and telephone companies. The legal and economic environment for these media participants has shifted, and new problems have arisen. One major problem is the enhanced threat of concentration of media corporations, as corporate bigness becomes desirable and the number of diversified owners of media outlets continues to decrease. This paper analyzes broadcasting regulations and subsequent case law to show the concern by the legislature and regulatory agencies to preserve diversity in opinion and media-ownership through emphasis on “localism” and a “marketplace of …
An American Perspective On The European Commission's "Amended Proposal For A Council Regulation On The Control Of Concentrations Between Undertakings" And Its Impact On Hostile Tender Offers, Jeffrey P. Greenbaum
An American Perspective On The European Commission's "Amended Proposal For A Council Regulation On The Control Of Concentrations Between Undertakings" And Its Impact On Hostile Tender Offers, Jeffrey P. Greenbaum
Penn State International Law Review
The Amended Proposal for a Council Regulation on the Control of Concentrations Between Undertakings is a European measure in preparation for the unified internal market in 1992. The aim of the proposal is to regulate corporate reorganizations, mergers, and acquisitions resulting from the additional competition likely to emerge from the unified market. This article provides a thorough analysis of the Proposal's intended application in comparison to the American Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act and its potential effectiveness and shortcomings.

Ec Merger Control In The 1990s: An Overview Of The Draft Regulation, Frank L. Fine
Ec Merger Control In The 1990s: An Overview Of The Draft Regulation, Frank L. Fine
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
The wave of mergers and acquisitions experienced during the last several years in the United States is now on its way to Europe. The Commission of the European Communities ('Commission') recently reported that cross-border mergers and stock purchases of majority shareholdings in the European Community ('EC' or 'Community') have surged from 29 in 1983-1984 to 52 in 1985-1986. Acquisitions by non-EC companies, particularly United States and Japanese firms, are also likely to increase dramatically. The Community has become a field ripe for merger activity largely because both European and non-European companies are keen to position themselves in anticipation of '1992,' …
Japan And The Bigness Mystique, Gary R. Saxonhouse
Japan And The Bigness Mystique, Gary R. Saxonhouse
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Walter Adams and James Brock are correct. There is little overseas evidence to support the proposition that there is a close link between international competitiveness and firm size. As Adams and Brock point out, the Japanese experience, in particular, highlights the absence of any intimate connection between these variables. The distinctive vitality of Japan's small-scale sector is a very old story. Whether it is the last decades of the Tokugawa period (1600-1868), the Meiji period (1868-1912), the Taisho period (1912-1926), or the Showa (1926-1989) period, commentators have invariably noted the surprising persistence of Japan's smaller-scale enterprises. Where once they were …
The Bigness Mystique And The Merger Policy Debate: A Comment From West Germany, Ingo L.O. Schmidt
The Bigness Mystique And The Merger Policy Debate: A Comment From West Germany, Ingo L.O. Schmidt
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
After eight years of an antitrust policy dominated by the principles of the Chicago School, which is better characterized as a protrust merger policy, the United States and the European Community are confronted with a new wave of mergers. The arguments for mergers are the same as in the 1960s: merger-induced bigness promotes international competition, efficiency, and technological progress. In this context, Adams and Brock in their excellent analysis ask the right questions. But did merger-induced corporate giantism provide salvation for European industry? Did it provide world-class competitiveness? Was it a success and a model of industrial policy worthy of …

The Validity Of Washington's Antitakeover Act Under The Commerce And Supremacy Clauses, Maureen B. Callahan, David J. Burman
Seattle University Law Review
This Article addresses the constitutionality of the Washington Act under the Commerce and Supremacy Clauses of the United States Constitution, and concludes that despite its extension to a limited group of foreign corporations, the Act is indeed constitutional under both clauses.
