The Dialectic Of Duplicity: Treaty Conflict And Political Contradiction, Guyora Binder Apr 1985

The Dialectic Of Duplicity: Treaty Conflict And Political Contradiction, Guyora Binder

Buffalo Law Review

When a state undertakes conflicting treaty obligations are both treaties binding, or is the second precluded by the first? International lawyers have traditionally held opposing views on this question. This article, the first on the topic, provides a comprehensive analysis and critique of the treaty conflict problem, and offers a political theoretic explanation for its persistent intractability. According to this explanation, opposing views of the power of states to incur international commitments reflect opposing views of the normative basis for state sovereignty and the scope of state autonomy. One view proceeds from an imperial model of sovereignty, articulated by Bodin …

The International Law Of Pollution: Protecting The Global Environment In A World Of Sovereign States, Bruce H. Wildsmith May 1984

The International Law Of Pollution: Protecting The Global Environment In A World Of Sovereign States, Bruce H. Wildsmith

Dalhousie Law Journal

A good book must have focus. This may not be the only criteria for evaluating a book, but it is certainly a sine qua non. A scholarly work such as Professor Springer's is a means of communicating ideas; the sharper its focus the clearer the message of its author and the better it and he communicates. When reading this book I wondered about its focus: was there a central unified objective? Having now completed the book, I can see that the author has painted us a useful, but blurred picture. He has not quite brought into focus his objective; much …


Canada's Arctic Jurisdiction In International Law, Donat Pharand Oct 1983

Canada's Arctic Jurisdiction In International Law, Donat Pharand

Dalhousie Law Journal

The purpose of this study is to make a brief overview of Canada's jurisdiction in the arctic regions, jurisdiction which has developed since the transfer of the Arctic Islands to Canada by Great Britain in 1880. The study will concentrate on Canada's jurisdiction over the water areas of the Arctic, but will also cover the status of the other areas involved. More specifically, the areas to be covered are: 1) the islands; 2) the continental shelf; 3) the waters in general; 4) the Northwest Passage; and 5) the airspace.

Trademark Licensing Agreements Under The Eec Law Of Competition, Rene Joliet Jan 1983

Trademark Licensing Agreements Under The Eec Law Of Competition, Rene Joliet

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

A vast amount of legal literature has addressed the problem of restrictive patent licensing under Article 85 of the EEC Treaty and a substantial number of decision illustrate the EC Commission's policy on that patent-antitrust issue. In contrast, trademark licensing agreement have hardly caught the attention of legal writers and the Campari case of 1977 is the only decision that deals with them. Such paucity of case law is surprising for two reasons. First, trademark licensing agreement are fairly common business practice in sectors such as beer, soft drinks, aperitifs, chocolate, cigarettes, or clothing; and second, several appliations for exemption …


State Trading: Its Nature And International Treatment, Edmond M. Ianni Jan 1983

State Trading: Its Nature And International Treatment, Edmond M. Ianni

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

At least six considerations compel a review of the international practice of state trading. First, state trading is practiced widely throughout the world and embraces at least one quarter of world trade. From a domestic perspective, United States trade with state trading countries continues to grow and, therefore, is directly relevant to the United States national interest. Second, increasing international economic interdependence has augmented the role of state trading in international trade by the inducements of economic necessity and efficiency. Third, recent Eastern European trends toward greater private economic autonomy have facilitated trade relations between free market countries and state …


Lawyers And Diplomats: Some Personal Observations, William Jr. Bodde Jan 1983

Lawyers And Diplomats: Some Personal Observations, William Jr. Bodde

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The American Experience has prove wrong de Tocqueville's contention that lawyers and missionaries make poor diplomats. Our diplomatic history is rich in successful and prominent lawyer-diplomats, demonstrating that even such a perceptive and sensitive observer of the American scene as the French historian could be mistaken.


United States/Common Market Agricultural Trade And The Gatt Framework, Simon Dodds Jan 1983

United States/Common Market Agricultural Trade And The Gatt Framework, Simon Dodds

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The Western World is suffering from its worst recession since the depression of the 1930s. While many nations have been successful in reducing inflation, the level of unemployment continues to rise appreciably. Western governments have shielded domestic industries from foreign competition in an effort to preserve jobs. Political pressures have prompted those governments to fix the blame for their countries' economic ills on foreign culprits. They have turned away from international free trade and sought political salvation in protectionist policies. The international economic system has undergone severe strain.


Title V Of The 2nd Lome Convention Between Eec And Acp States: A Critical Assessment Of The Industrial Cooperation As It Relates To Africa, Ndiva Kofele-Kale Jan 1983

Title V Of The 2nd Lome Convention Between Eec And Acp States: A Critical Assessment Of The Industrial Cooperation As It Relates To Africa, Ndiva Kofele-Kale

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

On October 31, 1979, representatives from fifty-eight African-Caribbean-Pacific (ACP) and nine European Economic Community (EEC) States signed the second Lome Convetion. This agreement will govern the technical, commercial, and financial relations between the two groups of countries from March 1, 1980 through February 28, 1985. Lome II is the fifth in a series of conventions concluded between the EEC countries and the developing nations of Africa, the Caribbean, and the Pacific. Like its predecessors, Lome II was designed to "establish a model for relations between developed and developing states," and lay the foundation for a "New International Economic Order." Toward …


United States International Competitiveness And Trade Policies For The 1980s, Dan Quayle Jan 1983

United States International Competitiveness And Trade Policies For The 1980s, Dan Quayle

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

A new wave of protectionism is upon us and its undertow, if not the wave itself, constitutes a serious threat to the Western alliance. This "neo-protectionism" differs from familiar past practices relying heavily on higher tariffs; it is more often charactierized by the use of more subtle ploys such as dumping, subsidization, and the erection of difficult marketing requirements for foreign traders.


The Sinking Shipping Industry, Cynthia Y. Mccoy Jan 1983

The Sinking Shipping Industry, Cynthia Y. Mccoy

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The United States has yet to develop a coordinated national shipping policy despite constant calls for a strong merchant marine dating from the country's inception. The lack of such a policy implicates broader national interests than those of shippers and ship-owners, such as the national defense, diplmoatic relations with United States trading partners, and the United States balance of payments.

Williams V. Shipping Corp. Of India And Rex V. Cia. Pervana De Vapores, S.A.: The Seventh Amendment And The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act Of 1976, Barbara A. Adams

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Suits against foreign sovereigns and their agents or instrumentalities are being brought in increasing numbers by American citizens and businesses in the United States court to resolve legal disputes, both at the federal and state levels. Although formerly absolutely prohibited, suits against foreign sovereigns acting in various commercial and business capacities have been allowed in the United States since the 1940s. In response to both the multitude of foreign policy and legal problems, and the general confusion arising out of the attempts by the executive and judicial branches of government to decide whether foreign sovereign immunity should be granted in …


Appellations Of Origin: The Continuing Controversey, Lori E. Simon Jan 1983

Appellations Of Origin: The Continuing Controversey, Lori E. Simon

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Appellations of origin (appellations d'origine) are geographical denominations that indicate a product's origin, as well as particular distinctive and renowned qualities associated with the location. Because of the singularity of these titles, the disparity in national laws, and the potential for infringement of the rights associated with the names, protection of appeallations of origin continues to be a controversial topic in international trade law. The debate over protection of appellations of origin primarily stems from conflicting national economic interests and divergent fundamental conceptions of the purpose of protecting trade names. It is entangled further by cultural, linguistic, and historical differences …


Legal Protection Of Computer Programs In The United Kingdom, Timothy S. Bishop Jan 1983

Legal Protection Of Computer Programs In The United Kingdom, Timothy S. Bishop

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The computer software and firmware industries spend an enormous sum of money each year on the development of new programs. Developing, marketing and maintaing an individual program may involve a substantial investment. A potential for profit obviously exists if a successful program can be copied, thereby saving development and other related expenses, or if a copmuter user can run a program wihtout paying the usual fees to its owner. It is hardly surprising that considerable attention is now being focused on the means by which owners may secure legal protection against the copying or unauthorized use of their programs.
