The Revised Hague Rules On Bills Of Lading, Gabriel M. Wilner

Scholarly Works

In what amounts to a proposed new Convention to replace the "Hague Rules," the United Nations Commission on International Law (UNCITRAL) has included an Article (22) authorizing parties to a contract for the carriage of goods to provide for arbitration of disputes arising therefrom. States which become parties to the Convention would be required to give effect to such a contract. The proposed Convention gives the plaintiff much the same options with respect to either the judicial or the arbitral forum. These options as to locale tend to favor the defending party -- usually the carrier. On the other hand, …

The Foreign Investment Climate In Nigeria, Bernard Blankenheimer

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

Foreign investment in Nigeria requires careful planning and attention to local requirements. For those investors willing to take the necessary time and effort the opportunities offered can be rewarding. The prospective American investor must inform himself of political, economic, and social conditions. He must adapt himself to dealing with Africans and must try to understand their social and cultural patterns and their historical evolution. In the past this was desirable, but not essential, since business contacts were predominantly European. Today it is critical.

Invitations by Nigerians for joint projects involving public participation need not be regarded as an overriding obstacle …

Nigeria: Still Safe For U.S. Investors?, Jerome F. Donovan

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

Doing business in Nigeria has never been easy. Delays and frustrations are commonplace. Coupled with recent political changes, these formidable considerations may dissuade many potential investors from entering Nigeria. Nigeria, however, has an important role in international economics, which is sure to increase in significance. Thus, American businessmen may find that they cannot afford to ignore Nigeria, despite their inclination to do so. Nigeria's government has taken positive and far-reaching steps to encourage and protect foreign investment in order to better meet the country's economic, social, and political needs. Innovative American businessmen sensitive to local needs can certainly find their …

The Contemporary Evolution Of Intermodal And International Transport Regulation Under The Interstate Commerce Act, Paul S. Dempsey

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

n our era of rapidly diminishing impediments to the free flow of capital, goods, technology, and services between nations, transnational commercial activity has become extremely important to our national economy. New frontiers are being broken as raw materials and manufactured products move more freely between nations which have heretofore shared little in culture, history, religion, race, or economic and political philosophy. Certainly, governmental initiatives designed to eliminate trade inhibitions are responsible for much of this growth. Tariff walls are crumbling. The world economy is prospering. The interdependencies that flourish between members of the world community as a result of bilateral …

The Legal Status Of Foreign Investments In The East African Common Market, T. O. Elias -- Reviewer

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

One noticeable development in the field of International Economic Law during the last decade since the United Nations ushered in the new era of an economic world order has been the growing literature on the law of investments, especially in respect to developing economies. International Economic Law itself is a recent specialist off-shoot of general public international law, having been nurtured and popularized as a subject of separate university discipline in its own right within the last 30 years or so by Schwarzenberger among others. Notable, generally, among the specialized studies on international investments law are Worthley's Expropriation in Public …

Subsidies And Countervailing Duties--Analysis And A Proposal, John J. Barceló Iii

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

The author recommends a new scheme for regulating the use of government subsidies and countervailing duties in international trade, an area presently regulated by the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. He contends that these rules should be based to a large extent on principles of free trade and economic efficiency. In addition to setting out proposed regulations, the author analyzes the strength and weaknesses of free trade theory and of the present GATT rules regarding subsidies and countervailing duties.

Choice Of Forum And Public Policy: Some Indications Of The Development In United States Law Of A Distinct "International" Public Policy, Gabriel M. Wilner

Scholarly Works

In this decade, the United States Supreme Court decided two cases which revolved around the enforceability of choice of forum clauses contained in transnational commercial contracts. The decisions which the Court rendered reshaped significantly the legal contours of the enforceability of such clauses. In the two cases, the Court signaled that it was prepared to recognize the distinction between what may be termed "internal" public policy and what may be termed "international" public policy. The recognition of this distinction is likely to have a vital bearing on the right of persons to provide for a specific foreign judicial or arbitral …

The Final Act Of The Helsinki Conference: An Artists' Liberation Movement Or A Voyage To Laputa, James A. R. Nafziger

Cleveland State Law Review

The Final Act of the Conference on Security and Co-Operation in Europe, often referred to as the "Helsinki Accords," has important implications for art and artists. The Final Act applies to three broad categories of art law issues: cultural cooperation and exchange of cultural material; the rights of individual artists; and other international cooperation. This study will examine each of these categories in the context of a current or recent problem, consider pertinent provisions of the Final Act, and conclude with a brief recommendation and forecast.
