American Acceptance Of The Jurisdiction Of The International Court Of Justice: Experiences And Prospects, Louis B. Sohn
American Acceptance Of The Jurisdiction Of The International Court Of Justice: Experiences And Prospects, Louis B. Sohn
Scholarly Works
The International Court of Justice ("ICJ" or "Court") is the successor to both the Permanent Court of Arbitration and the Permanent Court of International Justice. Before the first court was established in 1899, only ad hoc tribunals existed. This was due to a basic fact of international law that international tribunals possessed jurisdiction only if the parties to the case conferred it on the tribunal either for that case or previously by an international agreement. Therefore, the great problem of international law today is how to confer as much jurisdiction on the international court as possible. Now that the use …
Foreign Policy And Export Controls: How Will The Canada-United States Free Trade Agreement Accommodate The Extraterritorial Application Of The United States Laws To Canadian Exports Of Goods And Technology?, Dorinda G. Dallmeyer
Scholarly Works
This paper begins with a comparison of the Canadian and U.S. export control structures. It examines resulting conflicts between the two. It then describes the provisions of the Free Trade Agreement which address the harmonization of export controls. While the Agreement is far-reaching, it is important to note that the FTA is not a Customs Union. That is, the two countries are not going to develop a common external trade policy but will continue to maintain independent trade relations with respect to third countries. In light of that fact, the paper analyzes the prospects for continuing conflict between the United …

Conference Introduction, C. Ronald Ellington
Scholarly Works
I am pleased to welcome everyone, especially our distinguished speakers, to this most important conference. Our purpose is to discuss ways of maintaining the post-World War II multilateral trading system between the United States and its economic parters, the OECD and the developing world. The Uruguay Round multilateral trade negotiations have given the international community a forum to thoroughly examine the possibility of brining all international trade under a common multilateral trading system, unencumbered by barriers and national interests. The liberalization of trade in services and the protection of industrial and intellectual property rights are an essential part of the …
Representing Nazism: Advocacy And Identity At The Trial Of Klaus Barbie, Guyora Binder
Representing Nazism: Advocacy And Identity At The Trial Of Klaus Barbie, Guyora Binder
Journal Articles
Noting the enormous media interest in the war crimes trial of Klaus Barbie, and the surprising emphasis of this coverage on its cultural significance, this essay provides a literary reading of the trial as a contest over identity. More specifically, it treats the trial and its coverage as a struggle among competing groups - including the French state, various strands of the French left, the French right, resistance veterans, holocaust survivors, Zionists, Arabs, anti-colonialists - for the power to represent Nazism. All of these groups sought to define Nazism so as to claim a privileged identity as essential victims or …
The Warranty Of Quality In Sale Of Goods Under The Perspective Of The American And French Law, Renaud Baguenault De Puchesse
The Warranty Of Quality In Sale Of Goods Under The Perspective Of The American And French Law, Renaud Baguenault De Puchesse
LLM Theses and Essays
While the United States’ common law system is characterized by diversity due to each state having its own set of rules, in certain areas there are nationwide legislative attempts of unification and standardization. One such attempt is the adoption of the Uniform Commercial Code which governs the sale of goods law in the United States. The French civil law system generally differs greatly from the American system in that it is primarily based upon statutes and codes. However, the American Uniform Commercial Code and the French Civil Code provide tangible, comparable bases to assess similarities and differences between American and …
