Administrative Law In The United States -- Past, Present And Future, Alfred C. Aman Jan 1991

Administrative Law In The United States -- Past, Present And Future, Alfred C. Aman

Articles by Maurer Faculty

This paper will take a contextual approach to American administrative law. It will examine the historic context and the legal significance of certain administrative law doctrines and approaches. In so doing, it will examine three distinct eras of administrative law: (1) the New Deal-A.PA., which I date from 1929 to 1959; (2) the environmental era which I date from 1960 to 1980; and (3) the global era of administrative law, whose beginnings I somewhat arbitrarily mark as 1980. This takes us to the present and the foreseeable future.' I do not mean to imply that these eras are so distinct …

Soft Law And The International Law Of The Environment, Pierre-Marie Dupuy Jan 1990

Soft Law And The International Law Of The Environment, Pierre-Marie Dupuy

Michigan Journal of International Law

Because the existing body of international environmental law has, in part, emerged on the basis of "soft" norms, it provides a good field for observing the general sociological and juridical phenomenon termed "soft" law. The 1972 Stockholm Declaration adopted by the UN Conference on the Human Environment, for example, constitutes the normative program for the world community 'in this field. Although, from a formal point of view, the Declaration is only a nonbinding resolution, many of its "principles," particularly Principle 21, have been relied upon by governments to justify their legal rights and duties. The subsequent State practice has been, …

Securities Regulation In The International Marketplace: Bilateral And Multilateral Agreements, Daniel L. Goelzer, Anne Sullivan, Robert Mills Jan 1988

Securities Regulation In The International Marketplace: Bilateral And Multilateral Agreements, Daniel L. Goelzer, Anne Sullivan, Robert Mills

Michigan Journal of International Law

This article examines the experience of the SEC in securities regulation with respect to the international securities markets, focusing first as background upon recent developments in those markets, and then on the actual regulation of issuer disclosure, the trading markets, and enforcement in general. In each of the latter three areas, the article will consider the Commission's direct domestic actions in response to international trade, and compare those with international approaches to establish standards in these areas. This comparison demonstrates that international cooperation can, and should, develop new protections and predictable, common themes of regulation, for disclosure, market regulation, and …

Survey Of National Legislation Regulating Insider Trading, Mary J. Houle Jan 1988

Survey Of National Legislation Regulating Insider Trading, Mary J. Houle

Michigan Journal of International Law

In recent years much attention has been focused on the phenomenon of "insider trading." The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) now appears to have wide-spread public support for its hard-line approach toward insider trading practices. Previously hostile to a broad prohibition of insider trading, even the Supreme Court has lent a sympathetic ear to the pleas of the SEC in the recent Carpenter case, which hinted at support for the misappropriation theory of insider trading. The prevailing attitude is that confidence in the fair operation of the securities markets must not be undermined by insiders who deprive those …
