The Importation Of Sexism: A Cost-Benefit Approach To The U.S.-South Korea Friendship, Commerce And Navigation Treaty, Jennifer D. Fease
The Importation Of Sexism: A Cost-Benefit Approach To The U.S.-South Korea Friendship, Commerce And Navigation Treaty, Jennifer D. Fease
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
The U.S.-South Korea Friendship, Commerce and Navigation Treaty was entered into by the signatory countries following World War II and governs the actions of corporations operating in a foreign country. One provision of the Treaty allows foreign corporations in the United States to choose executives "of their choice," arguably without regard to the statutory protections that the United States affords in the hiring process. In this Note, the Author contends that the U.S.-South Korea Friendship, Commerce and Navigation Treaty results in discrimination against women in the United States because South Korean employers tend to choose South Korean men to fill …

Eastern Europe: Observations And Investment Strategies, Marek Wierzbowski
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
It is my impression that right now an American lawyer has no problem getting acquainted with East European laws concerning foreign investment. There are so many translations now in this country that almost every new law is immediately translated into English. The American lawyer can get to this text at almost the same time as the East European lawyer can get to it.
So it is very easy to get acquainted with legal texts of the most important laws from the point of view of foreign investors, but there are some traps. And it is my impression that when lawyers …

Merger And Acquisition Activities In Japan: The Present And The Future, Mitsuru Misawa
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
Merger and acquisition are expected to generate increasing interest in industrial circles throughout Japan. Those who argue in favor of mergers and acquisitions emphasize that these activities will help rejuvenate the economy of Japan through the revitalization of corporate management and the efficient reallocation of resources. Some commentators are strongly in favor of takeover bids and argue that aggressive takeover bids will lead to the revitalization of the individual corporations targeted for acquisition through the arousal of top officials of the targets.
Critics charge, on the other hand, that only raiders, lawyers and speculators find takeover bids profitable. Some complain …

The Import Surcharge Of 1971: A Case Study Of Executive Power In Foreign Commerce, David Pollard, David A. Boillot
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
The importance of foreign trade in the conduct of foreign affairs demonstrates that many foreign commerce questions contain foreign affairs overtones. For example, President Nixon has recently noted that congressional restrictions on granting the Soviet Union most-favored-nation treatment would be "a hurdle to further detente." Although article I, section 8 of the Constitution vests the power to regulate foreign commerce in the legislative branch, the Congress has delegated a great deal of that power to the Executive. Moreover, it appears that the President possesses certain inherent powers in foreign commerce as a result of his extensive, albeit undefined, authority in …
