Nuremberg Sensibility: Telford Taylor's Memoir Of The Nuremberg Trials, Kenneth Anderson
Nuremberg Sensibility: Telford Taylor's Memoir Of The Nuremberg Trials, Kenneth Anderson
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
This brief 1994 book review essay (5500 words) examines Telford Taylor's memoir, The Anatomy of the Nuremberg Trials (1992). The review is a personal one, set against two things - the author's work, while reading Taylor's memoir, in Iraq for Human Rights Watch leading a forensic team excavating Kurdish victims of the 1988 al-Anfal campaign, and the diplomatic discussions leading to the formation of the International Criminal Tribunal for Yugoslavia. The essay argues that the Nuremberg trials, according to Taylor, had a certain deflationary emotional affect - deliberately ratcheting down the emotions of what had occurred to the limited world …

Anatomy Of A Regulatory Program: Comment On 'Strategic Regulators And The Choice Of Rulemaking Procedures', Jeffrey Lubbers
Anatomy Of A Regulatory Program: Comment On 'Strategic Regulators And The Choice Of Rulemaking Procedures', Jeffrey Lubbers
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
Besides being a very interesting, cogent, and even a tidy study, "Strategic Regulators" sheds some bright light on agency behavior and on the important issue of whether agency rulemaking may be "ossifying."
The study design employed by Hamilton and Schroeder is attractively simple. They started with all of the Environmental Protection Agency's ("EPA's") hazardous waste regulations under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") appearing in the Code of Federal Regulations ("CFR"), counting each decimal point CFR number as a separate rule. This yielded 697 rules. They then examined all EPA/RCRA guidance documents issued since the inception of the program …

State Succession To Debts And Assets: The Modern Law And Policy, Paul Williams, Jennifer Harris
State Succession To Debts And Assets: The Modern Law And Policy, Paul Williams, Jennifer Harris
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
When a state dissolves, or when territorial entities of a state break away and become independent states, those states and other members of the international community are faced with a host of legal questions concerning the continuation of the predecessor state’s treaty obligations, succession to the predecessor state’s membership in various international organizations, an the allocation of its debts and assets. This article addresses the legal rules governing the allocation of debts and assets among successor states, and in particular the role of the creditor states in formulating that allocation.

Searching For Gatt's Environmental Miranda, William Snape
Searching For Gatt's Environmental Miranda, William Snape
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
INTRODUCTION: While the clairvoyant may have anticipated it earlier, the policy struggle between environmental protection and liberal trade effectively began in August 1991. That month, as has been recounted numerous times, a General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) arbitral panel declared that provisions of the U.S. Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) were contrary to existing GATT rules. Although the panel's decision had several distinct legal elements, the crux of the dispute brought by the government of Mexico-and the basis of the panel's decision-was the U.S. executive's mandate to ban the importation of certain tuna caught by a fishing technique …
Sensibility At Nuremberg: A Review Essay On Telford Taylor's The Anatomy Of The Nuremburg Trials, Kenneth Anderson
Sensibility At Nuremberg: A Review Essay On Telford Taylor's The Anatomy Of The Nuremburg Trials, Kenneth Anderson
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
Justice Robert H. Jackson's opening statement at the Nuremberg trial has justly been characterized as one of the greatest orations in modern juristic literature. Yet behind its rhetorical power lies a fervent anxiety: a desire to silence the skeptical voices whispering that the Nuremberg trials were just the tarted-up revenge to which Camus alludes.

Federalism Myth, Fernando Laguarda
Federalism Myth, Fernando Laguarda
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
INTRODUCTION: The late Justice Louis Brandeis once remarked on the benefit that our system of government derives from the states acting as the "laboratories of democracy."' This remark not only implies that states should be given the discretion to experiment, it presumes that states actually have the ability to do so. In order to understand Justice Brandeis and those who have followed in his rhetorical footprints, it is important to understand federalism, which is the organizing principle of American government.
