The Changing Process Of International Law And The Role Of The World Court, James Kelly Dec 1988

The Changing Process Of International Law And The Role Of The World Court, James Kelly

Patrick Kelly

The U.S. withdrawal of its declaration accepting the compulsory jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice and its withdrawal from the ICJ proceedings in the Nicaragua v. U.S. case caused a crisis of confidence in the Court that continues today. The underlying premise of advocates of ICJ jurisdiction has been that increased participation in ICJ jurisdiction would help resolve disputes and promote respect for the Court and international law. A new declaration by the United States, however, would be a triumph of form over substance. The United States has never effectively accepted the compulsory jurisdiction of the Court and the …


Arbitral Immunity, Roger Abrams Dec 1988

Arbitral Immunity, Roger Abrams

Roger I. Abrams

In this article, Professors Abrams and Nolan address the issue of the immunity of labor arbitrators from suit based on their service in a quasi-judicial role as neutrals under the provisions of collective bargaining agreements. They argue that based upon Supreme Court's precedent elevating arbitration to a critical role in the implementation of federal labor policy, arbitrators must enjoy the same immunity given to federal and state judges. Courts have cited this work in approving arbitral immunity. This article was first delivered as a paper at the National Academy of Arbitrators.

State Competence To Regulate Corporate Takeovers: Lessons From State Takeover Statutes, Alan E. Garfield Dec 1988

State Competence To Regulate Corporate Takeovers: Lessons From State Takeover Statutes, Alan E. Garfield

Alan E Garfield

This Article reveals two very different lessons about state competence to regulate corporate takeovers. The first lesson is that some states are enacting anti-takeover legislation for the protectionist purpose of sheltering large local employers. The Article contends that the appropriate response to this legislation is for courts to invalidate it under the Commerce Clause. The second lesson is that some states, most notably Delaware, are enacting anti-takeover legislation to protect a state’s corporate chartering industry. In this instance, federal preemptive intervention is necessary to ensure that state law does not unduly favor management interests at shareholder expense.

Of "Procedural Arbitrability": The Effect Of Noncompliance With Contract Claims Procedures, Thomas J. Stipanowich Dec 1988

Of "Procedural Arbitrability": The Effect Of Noncompliance With Contract Claims Procedures, Thomas J. Stipanowich

Thomas J. Stipanowich

This article is part of a symposium entitled “Construction Contract Issues.” In it, Professor Stipanowich surveys contemporary judicial attitudes regarding the effect of noncompliance with procedures for handling construction claims and controversies. It also analyzes the policies advanced in support of deferring questions of "procedural arbitrability" to arbitration and proposes a straightforward rationale for judicial disposition of such issues. Although the discussion emphasizes scenarios involving construction contracts, the principles addressed in this article are applicable to commercial arbitration agreements generally and may be extended by analogy to the labor sphere.


Climate Chaos, David A. Wirth Dec 1988

Climate Chaos, David A. Wirth

David A. Wirth

This 1989 article in Foreign Policy -- of considerable interest from an historical point of view -- is one of the first systematically to outline the causes and effects of impending climate change. Among other policy measures, the article argues for new international agreements in order to mitigate the damaging effects of climate disruption. Because climate change is likely negatively to impact all nations, taking steps to reduce the rate and amount of change must be an international priority for the entire world. The proposed treaty would require reducing the global output of CO2 substantially, while committing developed countries to …
