International Corporate Governance Practices And Their Implications On Investors, Namwandi Hamanyanga
International Corporate Governance Practices And Their Implications On Investors, Namwandi Hamanyanga
LLM Theses and Essays
Corporate governance has become a bonafide subset of company’s law that is concerned with who directs the company and for whose benefit. Its application varies in countries found in the main legal jurisdictions of common and civil law. This thesis identifies these differences by highlighting national corporate governance systems existing in Germany, Japan, United Kingdom and United States. Together, these countries represent systems adopted by several countries located on all continents. Increased cross border investment in this era of globalization has been significantly affected by these governance systems. The thesis shows the reasons why investors, multinational corporations and nations have …

Peoples Divided: The Application Of United States Constitutional Protections In International Criminal Law Enforcement, Ian R. Conner
William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal
In an age of globalization, criminal activity too has become internationalized. The response from the United States and other countries has been a growing number of treaties, international accords, and multinational law enforcement programs.

The Case Of The Foreign Lawyer: Internationalizing The U.S. Legal Profession, Carole Silver
The Case Of The Foreign Lawyer: Internationalizing The U.S. Legal Profession, Carole Silver
Carole Silver
This article contriubtes a new perspective to existing scholarship on internationalization of the legal profession by focusing on the increasing presence of foreign lawyers in U.S. law schools and law firms. It analyzes the interaction between foreign-educated lawyers and the legal profession in the U.S. based upon two sources of information: first, a series of interviews with foreign-educated lawyers and U.S. law firm hiring partners regarding experiences in law school and in firms, and second, a database comprised of biographical information for more than 300 foreign-educated lawyers who were working in New York during 1999 and 2000. The various roles …

Treaties In Collision: The Biosafety Protocol And The World Trade Organization Agreements, Sabrina Safrin
Treaties In Collision: The Biosafety Protocol And The World Trade Organization Agreements, Sabrina Safrin
Rutgers Law School (Newark) Faculty Papers
In the event of a conflict between the requirements of the Biosafety Protocol, a multilateral agreement governing the trade in genetically modified organisms, and the requirements of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade and associated agreements (collectively WTO Agreements), which treaty's requirements prevail? This question lies as the legal heart of the perceived conflict between trade globalization and environmental protection. This issue is particularly timely given the present trade dispute between the United States and European Union over the European Union’s restrictions on the importation of genetically modified agricultural commodities.
In this piece, I analyze the relationship between these …

Feist Goes Global: A Comparative Analysis Of The Notion Of Originality In Copyright Law, Daniel J. Gervais
Feist Goes Global: A Comparative Analysis Of The Notion Of Originality In Copyright Law, Daniel J. Gervais
Daniel J Gervais
he 1991 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Feist Publications v. Rural Telephone Service Company, Inc. delivered was hailed both as a landmark decision and a legal bomb. Was Feist so original as to deserve all the attention? After all, it did not establish a new originality paradigm as such but only ended a long division among federal circuits concerning the protection under copyright of factual compilations. A number of circuits had adopted a test similar to the one articulated in Feist (i.e., based on creative selection), while others required only evidence of labor, a test known as sweat of the …

Harmony And Diversity In Global Patent Law, John F. Duffy
Harmony And Diversity In Global Patent Law, John F. Duffy
Faculty Publications
The second half of the twentieth century saw the rise of a broad movement to harmonize patent laws across nation-states. The most recent, and most significant, manifestation of this movement is the 1994 TRIPS Agreement, which requires signatory nations to adopt uniform rules on many major issues of patent law. The TRIPS Agreement has now been implemented by well over one hundred countries, including almost all major industrial nations, and it heralds a new level of international uniformity in patent law.
This Article, while acknowledging the value of some harmonization of national law , explores the possible costs of the …

Strengthening Sustainable Development In Regional Inter-Governmental Governance: Lessons From The 'Asean Way', Nicholas A. Robinson
Strengthening Sustainable Development In Regional Inter-Governmental Governance: Lessons From The 'Asean Way', Nicholas A. Robinson
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
ASEAN was founded with the 1967 Bangkok Declaration in order to encourage stable relations among its original member states, i.e. Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and the Philippines, and to resist destabilizing influences from the war in Viet Nam. The means to stability was to promote economic, social and cultural cooperation in the spirit of equality and partnership. A formal treaty system was not required. As the Viet Nam war ended, ASEAN held its first Summit Meeting in Bali (1976), followed by the 1977 Summit in Kuala Lumpur, where cooperation on regional industrializations was launched. In this first phase of cooperation, …
The Validity Of Some Coerced Treaties In The Early 20th Century: A Reconsideration Of The Japanese Annexation Of Korea In Legal Perspective, Young K. Kim
Young K Kim
In making the Treaty of Basic relations of 1965, Korean and Japanese Government have technically evaded the issue of validity of Japanese annexation of Korea 1910. The annexation treaty and other related four quasi-treaties should be thoroughly analyzed. It is subjected that the 1905 Protectorate Treaty is to be concluded as invalid from the outset, on the grounds that it was made under coercion applied to State representatives of Korea. Judging from all evicences and related historical facts, it seems quite obvious that coercion had been employed against the State representatives and the Head of State in making the Annexation …

"Artillery Lends Dignity To What Otherwise Would Be A Common Brawl": An Essay On Post-Modern Warfare And The Classification Of Captured Adversaries, Ralph Michael Stein
"Artillery Lends Dignity To What Otherwise Would Be A Common Brawl": An Essay On Post-Modern Warfare And The Classification Of Captured Adversaries, Ralph Michael Stein
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
This essay allows the writer to enter a fluid fray being played out almost day-by-day in the media and, of course, where it counts: in the administration of President George W. Bush. Conscious of the ebbs and drifts of both the current debates and desperately anxious not to be preempted by the march of a swiftly moving time frame, this essay suggests an approach to U.S. integration of generally accepted rules for the treatment of POWs that will advance both the war on terrorism and America's need to embrace the reality of the globalization of humanistic mores and notions about …
Cluster Bombs Over Kosovo: A Violation Of International Law?, Thomas Michael Mcdonnell
Cluster Bombs Over Kosovo: A Violation Of International Law?, Thomas Michael Mcdonnell
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
As the United States continues to fight a war against private terror organizations, we and our coalition partners must avoid resorting to terror ourselves, lest our moral and legal standing be undermined. Both in Afghanistan and in Kosovo, the United States employed a weapon that violates the spirit if not the letter of humanitarian law. That weapon, the cluster bomb, unduly endangers and terrorizes civilians. Although focusing primarily on NATO's use of this weapon in Serbia and its Kosovo province, the thesis of this Article also applies to the United States' employing cluster bombs in our war in Afghanistan, a …
