Responses To Systemic Risk After The Global Financial Crisis: Canada And New Zealand, Nan Seuffert
Responses To Systemic Risk After The Global Financial Crisis: Canada And New Zealand, Nan Seuffert
Professor Nan Seuffert
This paper considers the responses of two jurisdictions to systemic risk identified as contributing to the global financial crisis (GFC). Canada and New Zealand are studied as two jurisdictions that both weathered the global financial crisis relatively well. Both have recently proposed new national authorities for the regulation and enforcement of securities: the Canadian Securities Regulation Authority and the Financial Markets Authority (New Zealand). Nevertheless, the proposals and the responses for new national authorities reveal that the two countries view the GFC and the appropriate responses quite differently. This paper analyses the appropriateness of the two responses.

This national benchmarking report of the U.S. telecommunications services industry traces the tumultuous changes in management and workforce practices and performance in the sector over the last 5 years. This is a follow-up report to our 1998 study. At that time, when the industry was booming, we conducted a national survey of establishments in the industry. In 2003, we returned to do a second national survey of the industry, this time in a sector that was recovering from one of the worst recessions in its history.

This report constitutes the first benchmarking survey of business and human resource practices among a nationally representative sample of workplaces in the broadly defined telecommunications industry that includes wireline, wireless, cable, and internet providers. It grows out of a multi-year study of organizational change in the industry, and is based on extensive field study, site visits, interviews, and surveys conducted by research teams at Cornell and Rutgers Universities. Managers at 577 establishments across the country gave generously of their time during a lengthy telephone survey. The study was made possible through a generous grant by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.
“The Longest Journey, With A First Step”: Bringing Coherence To Sovereignty And Jurisdictional Issues In Global Employee Benefits Law, Paul Secunda
Paul M. Secunda
One of the most neglected areas of employee benefits law in the United States today is the extraterritorial application of ERISA to U.S. employees in other countries. Additionally, the courts and legislature have not spent the necessary time to discuss ERISA coverage issues for foreign employees, both legal and illegal and both working for foreign government and non-government employers, in the United States. These are increasingly crucial areas of U.S. employee benefits law as the globalization of the world's workplaces continues apace.
After surveying the tangled web of ERISA law in this context, the article proposes two statutory fixes and …
Local Public Entrepreneurship And Judicial Intervention In A Euro-American And Global Perspective, Christian Iaione
Local Public Entrepreneurship And Judicial Intervention In A Euro-American And Global Perspective, Christian Iaione
Fernando Christian Iaione
Local public entrepreneurship is a concept which encompasses a variety of activities carried out by local governments to foster local economic development. The first part of this paper puts forward local public entrepreneurship as a windfall of the right to local self-government. In the second part two cases are presented - one from EU and one from US - where local public entrepreneurship is playing a major role. However, in the EU the ECJ jurisprudence is discouraging local governments to engage in such activities thereby undermining the right to local self-government. By contrast, the US legal system actively encourages a …
