Tiebout Goes Global: International Migration As A Tool For Voting With Your Feet, Ilya Somin
Tiebout Goes Global: International Migration As A Tool For Voting With Your Feet, Ilya Somin
Missouri Law Review
In this article, I make a tentative effort to plug this hole in the literature. I suggest that the benefits of international foot voting may well be much larger than those of free movement within national borders. Part II briefly summarizes the theory of foot voting and its potential benefits. I focus particularly on the use of exit rights as a form of political participation by which migrants can more effectively choose the public policies under which they live. Crucial benefits of political participation through exit rights include the matching of public policy to diverse preferences, the creation of an …

Expanding The Power Of U.S. Courts In Private International Arbitration - Moderation Loses To An Extreme, Amy Moore
Journal of Dispute Resolution
Since its inception, 28 U.S.C. § 17822 has been the subject of revisions, amendments, and much debate. This history is symptomatic of the evolving nature of United States presence in the international legal and business world; however, the statutory changes have not always been clear in purpose or application. In 2004, the Supreme Court granted certiorari for Intel Corp. v. Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., in order to solidify interpretation of § 1782's latest rendition, a 1964 congressional revision. Unfortunately, in expanding the accepted scope of § 1782, the Court created new ambiguity, especially in how the statute should relate to …
