The Supervision Of Corporate Management: A Comparison Of Developments In European Community And United States Law, Alfred F. Conard May 1984

The Supervision Of Corporate Management: A Comparison Of Developments In European Community And United States Law, Alfred F. Conard

Michigan Law Review

In 1971, Eric Stein published an account of the remarkable progress of the European Economic Community (EEC) toward a harmonized law of business corporations. The progress was particularly striking from an American viewpoint, because the harmonization was achieved by moving toward the more rigorous of the various national standards, in contrast to the "race of laxity" or "race for the bottom" that has characterized the movement toward uniformity in the corporation laws of U.S. states.


Judicial Jurisdiction In The United States And In The European Communities: A Comparison, Friedrich Juenger May 1984

Judicial Jurisdiction In The United States And In The European Communities: A Comparison, Friedrich Juenger

Michigan Law Review

Eric Stein deserves our gratitude for making European integration accessible to American students and teachers. He has taught and written widely on this important subject, and the casebook he published with Hay and Waelbroeck is a valuable aid for dispelling what a judge of the Communities' Court of Justice called "splendid mutual ignorance." Following Judge Pescatore's suggestion that it is time to take note of the experience gathered on both sides of the Atlantic, it seems worthwhile to compare the evolution of jurisdictional principles in the United States and in the Common Market.
