The Foreign Direct Investment Controls, Ruey-Fen Sung
LLM Theses and Essays
Foreign direct investment is the primary engine of economic development.

The subject of standard contract forms is appropriate for a comparative analysis between German and American contracts law.

Planning Under The National Environmental Policy Act: The Use Of Environmental Impact Statements In Agency Decisionmaking, Ralf Marxen
LLM Theses and Essays
This article focuses on Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) as part of the Federal National Environmental Policy Act and will therefore not deal with the different State Environmental Policy Acts (SEPA) or their relation to and interaction with Federal legislation. Furthermore, this article will focus upon those issues that are of special relevancy to the possible adoption of EISs into the German legal system. The article will also address cost-benefit issues related to the EIS process. Part VIII (judicial review) will only concentrate on the judicial review of administrative action concerning environmental planning through EISs.
