Third Party Access And Refusal To Deal In European Energy Networks: How Sector Regulation And Competition Law Meet Each Other, Michael Diathesopoulos
Michael Diathesopoulos
In this paper, we will analyse the issue of concurrence between competition and sector rules and the relation between parallel concepts within the two different legal frameworks. We will firstly examine Third Party Access in relation to essential facilities doctrine and refusal of access and we will identify the common points and objectives of these concepts and the extent to which they provide a context to each other’s implementation. Second, we will focus on how Commission uses sector regulation and objectives as a context within the process of implementation of competition law in the energy sector and third, we will …

Making Debtor Remedies More Effective, Melissa B. Jacoby
Making Debtor Remedies More Effective, Melissa B. Jacoby
Melissa B. Jacoby
Commissioned for a conference on credit markets at Harvard Business School in February 2010, this paper explores functional system design and the role of lawyers and intermediaries in providing debtor remedies in a complex legal system. The thesis of this paper, which proceeds in the “law and society” tradition, is that the location of a remedial right within the debtor-creditor system substantially affects the costs and benefits of the remedy for debtors, creditors, the system, and society. In other words, merely adding specific substantive provisions does not directly translate into actual protection. Relatedly, policymakers must recognize that lawyers and other …
Credit For Motherhood, Melissa Jacoby
Credit For Motherhood, Melissa Jacoby
Melissa B. Jacoby
This essay builds on prior work exploring the impact of consumer lenders who sell credit products for assisted reproduction and adoption. After reviewing some basic attributes of the parenthood lending market, the essay discusses how not-for-profit lenders promote traditional conceptions of motherhood and the division of carework in ways that credit discrimination laws were not designed to address. The essay also articulates some incentives of for-profit lenders to sell motherhood and potential implications for women who are ambivalent about becoming parents.
Managing Medical Bills On The Brink Of Bankruptcy, Melissa B. Jacoby, Mirya Holman
Managing Medical Bills On The Brink Of Bankruptcy, Melissa B. Jacoby, Mirya Holman
Melissa B. Jacoby
This paper presents original empirical evidence on financial interactions between medical providers and their patients who go bankrupt. We use a nationally representative sample of people who filed for bankruptcy in 2007 to compare two popular but hotly contested methods of measuring medical burden. By applying both methods to the same filers, we find that nearly four out of five respondents had some financial obligation for medical care not covered by insurance in the two years prior to filing as measured by the survey method. The court record method paints a different picture, with only half of the cases containing …

Los anteproyectos de un Código de Consumo para el Perú importan normativas de protección al consumidor de Europa y Sudamérica sin considerar que el Derecho Civil es el conjunto normativo, doctrinario y jurisprudencial más adecuado para proteger al consumidor.
Unbranding, Confusion & Deception, Aaron K. Perzanowski
Unbranding, Confusion & Deception, Aaron K. Perzanowski
Aaron K. Perzanowski
This Article addresses the phenomenon of unbranding. Unbranding occurs when a firm chooses to discontinue its use of a brand that has developed negative associations among consumers in favor of a new brand, often in hopes of escaping the consequences of inferior products or illegal activity. Companies like AIG, Blackwater, Philip Morris, and WorldComm have all employed this strategy in recent years. Unbranding represents a striking departure from branding orthodoxy, which stresses the maintenance of brand equity through the gradual evolution of a brand. After examining the factors that prompt firms to take the radical step of eliminating an established …

La Injustificada Negativa De La Cancelación Unilateral De La Hipoteca Unilateral, Rómulo Morales

En este artículo se realiza una crítica frontal a las resoluciones del Tribunal Registral, doctrina nacional y normativa registral que propugnan injustificadamente la imposibilidad de cancelación unilateral de la hipoteca unilateral.

Prólogo Al Libro “Estudios Sobre Responsabilidad Contractual” De Fernando Pantaleón Prieto, Rómulo Morales
Prólogo Al Libro “Estudios Sobre Responsabilidad Contractual” De Fernando Pantaleón Prieto, Rómulo Morales
Rómulo Martín Morales Hervias
El prólogo que se publica es la versión completa y no la mutilada intencionalmente por quien no admite la discrepancia en temas jurídicos. El libro que se comenta es un buen ejemplo de un inevitable malabarismo doctrinario que consiste en intentar interpretar un código del siglo XIX mediante las doctrinas post modernas del Derecho Civil. Ello es una prueba irrefutable que lo más importante no es tanto arribar al sentido literal de la norma jurídica sino lograr encontrar el sentido de una interpretación actualizada y bien fundamentada.
La Definición Del Contrato De Consumo En El Código De Protección Y Defensa Del Consumidor, Rómulo Morales
La Definición Del Contrato De Consumo En El Código De Protección Y Defensa Del Consumidor, Rómulo Morales
Rómulo Martín Morales Hervias
En el contrato de consumo, el empresario ejerce las libertades de celebrar el contrato y de estipulación mientras que el consumidor solo ejerce la libertad de celebrar el contrato. El Código peruano de Protección y Defensa del Consumidor no lo define adecuadamente.

El libro que se comenta se publicó en el 2008 en la lengua inglesa. He leído la versión italiana de 2010. Estoy convencido de la existencia de varias verdades jurídicas ocultadas intencionalmente por quienes ostentan el poder político y económico.
Multi-Level Marketing And Its Brethren: The Legal And Regulatory Environment In The Down Economy, Adam Epstein
Multi-Level Marketing And Its Brethren: The Legal And Regulatory Environment In The Down Economy, Adam Epstein
Adam Epstein
This article explores the legal and regulatory environment of multi-level marketing companies also known as MLM. Legal research is lacking in this area of business law though the regulatory environment involves a combination of federal and state laws including administrative agencies such as the FTC and SEC. In the current down economy, criminal enterprises such as Ponzi schemes have been exposed. MLMs are often compared to Ponzi and pyramid schemes and do share similarities. The article offers that personal responsibility is vital when determining whether to join any MLM in light of the volume of resources available on the internet.
