Competition Law And Regulation Law From An Ec Perspective, John Temple Lang Jan 1999

Competition Law And Regulation Law From An Ec Perspective, John Temple Lang

Fordham International Law Journal

These comments look at the subject from a legal viewpoint, in contrast to the Essay by Professor Dr. Günter Knieps, which uses an economic approach. His Essay raises several issues concerning access: (1) who should be obliged to give it; (2) to whom; (3) in what circumstances; and (4) on what terms? In practice, the precise answers will depend on whether European Community (“Community” or “EC”) competition law, national competition law, or national telecommunications law based on Community directives, are being applied. As far as possible, the same answer should be given in all cases.

U.S.-Russian Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty: Is There A Way To Control Russian Organized Crime?, Eugene Solomonov Jan 1999

U.S.-Russian Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty: Is There A Way To Control Russian Organized Crime?, Eugene Solomonov

Fordham International Law Journal

This Comment analyzes U.S. and Russian bilateral cooperation in fighting organized crime and the difficulties associated with this fight. Part I of this Comment presents the historical development of Russian organized crime, its domestic effects, and its internationalization, particularly in the United States. Part I also highlights the Russian government's legislative attempts to combat organized crime. Finally, Part I examines examples of international bilateral cooperation, such as that between Israel and the United States, which can be emulated by the Russian and U.S. authorities. Part II analyzes the existing Mutual Legal Assistance Agreement (“MLAA”) between the United States and the …


Modernization Of Ec Competition Law: Reform Of Regulation No. 17, Alexander Schaub Jan 1999

Modernization Of Ec Competition Law: Reform Of Regulation No. 17, Alexander Schaub

Fordham International Law Journal

Ladies and Gentlemen, at last year's conference I presented to you a wide variety of ongoing and proposed reforms with which the European Union intends to meet actual and future challenges for its competition policy. Today, one year later, we have made considerable progress in many respects. Most importantly, with our White Paper of 28 April 1999, we have launched the process for a fundamental reform of the rules implementing Articles 81 and 82 of the Treaty establishing the European Community (‘EC Treaty‘), which are currently laid down in Council Regulation No. 17. Anticipating your expectations and my fellow panelists' …


Some Reflections On The One-China Principle, Su Wei Jan 1999

Some Reflections On The One-China Principle, Su Wei

Fordham International Law Journal

There is but one China in the world. Taiwan is a part of China and the Government of the People's Republic of China is the sole legal government representing the whole of China. This is the basic content of the one-China principle. As one of the world's few time-honored countries, China has fine traditions and a brilliant civilization that can be traced back to ancient times. Such a civilization and traditions have nourished a Chinese culture of national unity as well as a set of values cherishing and defending unity. Deeply rooted in these Chinese cultural and philosophical backgrounds, the …


Defense Requests For International Judical Assistance: The U.K. Perspective, Christopher Murray Jan 1999

Defense Requests For International Judical Assistance: The U.K. Perspective, Christopher Murray

Fordham International Law Journal

The purpose of this Essay is to examine the machinery for providing evidence to defendants in foreign proceedings and the extent to which there is equality of arms and opportunity between the prosecutor and defendant when obtaining evidence from abroad in U.K. proceedings. This Essay will also identify the new problems that are starting to emerge when such equality is threatened. To do so, it explores the mechanism by which mutual assistance is governed in the United Kingdom - the Criminal Justice (International Co-operation) Act of 1990.


The Effects Of Deregulation On Competition: The Experience Of The United States, Richard A. Posner Jan 1999

The Effects Of Deregulation On Competition: The Experience Of The United States, Richard A. Posner

Fordham International Law Journal

Most economists agree that the net effect of the deregulation movement in the United States has been to increase efficiency, with resulting increases in consumer welfare. Because deregulation contemplates the substitution of competition for regulation as the “regulator” of the deregulated markets, deregulation increases the importance of antitrust law as a means of preventing unregulated firms from eliminating competition among themselves by mergers or price-fixing agreements. This is a particularly important point to remind Europeans, in view of the fact that historically antitrust has played a smaller role in European than U.S. law. It is important that ‘competition‘ be understood …


The Concept Of Disclosure Within European Financial Institutions, Peter Nobel Jan 1999

The Concept Of Disclosure Within European Financial Institutions, Peter Nobel

Fordham International Law Journal

I have been asked to make a few remarks regarding Arthur Laby's presentation, but, as everyone knows, it is very hard to discuss anything with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As far as I can see, the conceptual interplay of ‘disclosure versus substantive rules,‘ or rather — in its historical order — ‘substantive rules versus disclosure,‘ has not yet been widely discussed in Europe. Let me first set out what I mean by the two approaches as there are probably differences of definition between the United States and Europe, and, indeed, my understanding differs a bit from the one presented …


Antitrust Law And Pay-Tv: The Italian Case, Claudio Cocuzza Jan 1999

Antitrust Law And Pay-Tv: The Italian Case, Claudio Cocuzza

Fordham International Law Journal

Television (or “TV”) broadcasting today is in the wake of a critical technological revolution. The development of new technologies is becoming increasingly rapid and the legal scenario is changing daily and sometimes disorganically. Regulation in this field is strictly connected with technology and its evolution. For this reason, it is worthwhile to go through a brief outline of the last and most significant television broadcasting techniques. Distribution of TV “signals” has occurred in Europe and especially in Italy — until the beginning of the present decade — almost exclusively through terrestrial networks, i.e. via etere. This situation means that in …


Interjurisdictional Competition Within The European Union, Wolfgang Kerber Jan 1999

Interjurisdictional Competition Within The European Union, Wolfgang Kerber

Fordham International Law Journal

Part I of this Essay shows that two central principles of the EC, namely mobility between Member States and decentralization of economic policies (subsidiarity), imply that Member States and other lower-level jurisdictions necessarily are in competition with one another (locational competition). Part II presents an outline of a theory of interjurisdictional competition that suggests, first, that only a competitive system of jurisdictions can be compatible with both decentralization and mobility and, second, that interjurisdictional competition may be a superior way of supplying public goods and services. Part III argues that the institutional structure of the EC has failed to take …


Perspectives On Competition Law: Problems And Solutions, David A.O. Edward Jan 1999

Perspectives On Competition Law: Problems And Solutions, David A.O. Edward

Fordham International Law Journal

This essay suggests that it does not follow that competition between jurisdictions is good merely because competition between economic operators in pursuit of economic goals is a good thing. The result, as the discussion on television indicated, may simply be a jurisdictional mess, as Dr. Markus Wagemann put it. You end up with all sorts of people seeking to pursue their own values: cultural values, regional values, and linguistic values; and the economic operator simply does not know where he or she stands in this jurisdictional competition. This point can perhaps be completed by simply mentioning a remark made to …


Interconnection And Network Access, Gunter Knieps Jan 1999

Interconnection And Network Access, Gunter Knieps

Fordham International Law Journal

The purpose of this Essay is to focus on the role of market power where interconnection and network access problems are involved. The Essay is organized by parts. Part I sketches the European Union history with respect to open network provision (“ONP”) policy. In Part II, the market-share concept of market power applied within Council Directive 97/33, European Community on Interconnection in Telecommunications of June 30, 1997 (“Interconnection Directive”) is criticized as an important source for an oversized regulatory basis. Instead, the criteria for an economically justified disaggregated regulatory framework for the ONP concept is pointed out in order to …
