Communist Chinese Attitudes Toward United Nations Membership 1945-1971 An Essay, Victoria E. Docauer

IUSTITIA

Let us here examine the question of Communist Chinese representation in the United Nations in the context of a broader question: the attitude of Communist China toward international law. Was it only United States interference which kept Communist China out of the United Nations? What is the position of Communist China in regard to international law? Has the People's Republic been the lawless nation that it is sometimes described to be? In an attempt to provide questions, one must examine those arguments which emphasize the lawlessness of Communist China and seek to determine the attitude of the Communist Chinese toward …

From Stockholm To Nairobi To Caracas: Route Toward A New International Law?, Lynton K. Caldwell

IUSTITIA

In the future, as in the past, one function of international law will be to formalize and clarify procedures to deal with emergent problems. The international environmental developments noted in this paper, e.g. global monitoring, supervision of the seabed, protection of endangered species, resource allocation, and many others, will require institutional arrangements differing from those with which nations have had experience. Innovation in legal principles and procedures is an almost certain consequence of such developments. Innovations in principle have been among the more obvious outputs of the international environmental conferences and programs since 1968. As these principles are translated, often …

Development Of The Rio Grande Compact, Raymond A. Hill

Publications

Thirty-six years have elapsed since the Rio Grande Compact of 1938, N.M.S.A. Section 75-34-3 (Repl. 1968), was entered into by Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas, and approved by the United States of America. Administration of the Compact since then has been the responsibility of many different persons, few of whom had personal knowledge of the circumstances of the negotiation of this Compact. Consequently, there has been a growing tendency towards interpretation of some of the provisions of the Rio Grande Compact in a manner contrary to the intent of those who participated in its negotiation.

Mr. Hill has intimately connected …

Extraterritorial Jurisdiction And Jurisdiction Following Forcible Abduction: A New Israeli Precedent In International Law, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

An Israeli military court recently convicted Faik Bulut, a twenty three-year-old Turkish citizen, of the offense of belonging to Al-Fatah in Lebanon and Syria and sentenced him to seven years in prison. Bulut was captured in February 1972 during an Israeli raid 100 miles into Lebanon. Ten fedayeen, who were captured in Lebanon later in 1972, were scheduled to follow Bulut into court to be tried for the same offense. These are the first cases to be tried under a 1972 amendment to the Israeli Penal Law (Offenses Committed Abroad), which states in part: "The courts in Israel are competent …

Expropriation, Threats Of Expropriation And Developmental Policy, Michael W. Gordon

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

The transference of ownership to host nation control has been, nearly without exception, politically, rather than economically motivated. While there are often viable economic justifications for domestic ownership of the means of production, economic issues are often poorly expressed or arise not in the context of the prior justification for property transference, but rather as a later impediment, due to the inability of a developing nation's current economic resources to meet the demanded payment for the property takeovers.

Some Dilemmas Of An Internationalist In A World Of State Egoism, L.F.E. Goldie

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

The validity of any statement about international law turns on the meaning one is prepared to give the term. To say that the obligation to pay prompt, adequate and effective compensation for the expropriation of alien property derives from the body of traditional customary international law pertaining to the responsibility of states, or that the obligation derives from domestic (constitutional), and not international law at all, is to speak without clear referent. Clarity of both intent and ideology are absolute necessities.

Federal Income Tax Treatment Of United States Oil Corporations, Stanford G. Ross

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

Oil and gas operations are the single most important activity carried on by American multinational corporations. While there is a vast general literature on the tax laws applicable to foreign income, the particular application of this law to the oil industry is so sparse that one can count on the fingers of one hand the number of significant articles that have dealt specifically with this subject.

Toward International Freedom Of Religion: A Proposal For Change In Fcn Treaty Practice, Bruce F. Howell

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Since the founding of this nation, Americans have relied on fundamental constitutional principles for the ultimate protection of their religious liberty. These guarantees have been extended to all persons in the United States, not just citizens. American nationals traveling or living abroad may discover, however, that religious freedom is not regarded as a fundamental right elsewhere. Although most nations do, at least in principle, adhere to the basic idea of freedom of religious belief and exercise, religious freedom may be denied either to a state's own citizens or to foreign nationals within its boundaries.

Emigration: A Policy Oriented Inquiry, Arthur Jay Silverstein

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

This inquiry will treat restrictions on the desire to emigrate in a conceptual manner so as to provide criteria and procedures for decision-making. First, a framework will be constructed to assist decision-makers--be they heads of state, diplomats, legislators, bureaucrats, or simply citizens--in evaluating the competing claims involved when an individual seeks to exercise the right to emigrate. Then, an analysis of the emigration policies of Austria, India, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and the United States will be presented as illustrative of the world community's approach toward emigration showing its general expectations about appropriate controls on emigration. Finally, the …
