In Pursuit Of Pan Am, Peter Watson

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

It is trite to say that the world is becoming smaller, yet it is true. For all of us who travel for business or pleasure, horizons expand and widen, and as we travel from country to country, and continent to continent, the challenges for lawyers become more complex and demanding. No longer is it sufficient to understand the laws and practice competently within your own jurisdiction, be it the United States or another country.

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

The taking of a bribe or gratuity, should be punished with as severe penalties as the defrauding of the State.

- William Penn'

Privatization At The Crossroad Of Latvia's Economic Reform, Sandra Berzups

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

Latvia regained its independence from the former Soviet Union in August 1991. Since then, it has begun the slow and arduous path of replacing the centrally-planned, socialist system with an economic structure based on free-market principles. Latvia began this transition "in a difficult environment characterized by macroeconomic imbalances inherited from four decades of central planning and disruptions caused by a sharp contraction of trade with Russia and other states of the former Soviet Union."

Justice On Trial: The Efficacy Of The International Criminal Tribunal For Rwanda, Melissa Gordon

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

There can be no peace without justice, no justice without law, and no meaningful law without a court to decide what is just and lawful under any given circumstance. The process of codification, adjudication and enforcement is as vital to a tranquil international community as it is to any independent national state.

-Benjamin B. Ferencz'"

The success of the Yugoslavian and Rwandan War Crimes Tribunals will determine the future of international criminal law. Whether the Tribunals are able to command the attention and respect of the world remains to be seen.

Watching Czechs Look West, Norman Silber

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

"I prefer the way we live in my home of Krevitsonitze," the Czech factory computer engineer named Dzhenek told me. Together we flew toward Prague, conversing in broken English and pitiful Czech with the aid of a bilingual dictionary. Dzhenek was going home after four months spent in Pennsylvania, where he had been part of a team installing his Czech company's first American export: a giant computer-directed lathe in a machine-tools factory.

Idea Analysis For The Development Of Clinical Trial Strategies, Roberta S. Horowitz

CCAC Theses and Dissertations

Idea Analysis was investigated to determine its ability to organize scientific information and explain the results of specialists' deliberations in designing new clinical trials. Ideas have long been recognized as the engine of creativity. By focusing on the capture of ideas from the scientific literature, idea analysis procedures enable the arrangement of the information into forms consistent with those developed by subject specialists. The most obvious example is the concept structure. Ideas containing a common frequently occurring term/phrase can be depicted as a primary node in the concept network. Related terms will appear as elements associated with that node. Ideas …

Bluetongue is an International Office of Epizootics List A disease described as the century's most economically devastating affliction of sheep. Bluetongue (BLU) viruses were thought to infect only ruminants, shrews, and some rodents, but recently, inadvertent administration of BLU virus-contaminated vaccine resulted in mortality and abortion among domestic dogs. We present evidence of natural BLU virus infection among African carnivores that dramatically widens the spectrum of susceptible hosts. We hypothesize that such infection occurred after ingestion of meat and organs from BLU virus infected prey species. The effect of BLU virus on endangered carnivores such as the cheetah and African …
