Navigating The Shoals Of ‘Use’ Immunity And Secret International Enterprises In Major Congressional Investigations: Lessons Of The Iran-Contra Affair, George Van Cleve, Charles Tiefer Jan 1990

Navigating The Shoals Of ‘Use’ Immunity And Secret International Enterprises In Major Congressional Investigations: Lessons Of The Iran-Contra Affair, George Van Cleve, Charles Tiefer

Faculty Articles

In its Iran-Contra investigation, Congress faced legal challenges which evolved logically from the two-century long history of Congressional investigations, and yet at the same time were unmatched in their significance. One challenge concerned "use" immunity, and its employment when high advisers to the President faced parallel Congressional and criminal proceedings. A second concerned the investigation of a secret international "Enterprise," which, like similar enterprises, was established overseas to carry on international operations without public accountability, and was protected by multiple layers of secrecy sanctioned by law. This article addresses how history brought Congress to those challenges, and how Congress met …


The Deforestation Of The Brazilian Amazon: Law, Politics, And International Cooperation, Henry Mcgee, Kurt Zimmerman Jan 1990

The Deforestation Of The Brazilian Amazon: Law, Politics, And International Cooperation, Henry Mcgee, Kurt Zimmerman

Faculty Articles

This article discusses the Brazilian Amazon rain forest and its remarkable biological diversity. Many scientists believe the world's largest jungle serves as a regional and perhaps even "global thermostat." It is therefore essential that vigorous efforts be directed toward its preservation. This article will examine Brazilian attitudes toward its preservation, and possible solutions to the forest destruction with reference to domestic and international law.


The First Amendment In An Age Of Paratroopers, David Skover, Ronald Collins Jan 1990

The First Amendment In An Age Of Paratroopers, David Skover, Ronald Collins

Faculty Articles

As the lead piece in a Colloquy entitled The First Amendment and the Paratroopers' Paradox, this article argues that today's free speech theory is largely grounded in 18th Century fears of government's tyrannical censorship. This theory is ill-equipped to deal with a distinct tyranny in 21st Century America, a tyranny playing upon the public's insatiable appetite for amusement. Those who venture to develop free speech principles to suit a new cultural environment are the First Amendment paratroopers of our time, the ones who realize that we cannot retain our old constitutional prerogatives in a transformed world. The Paratroopers' Paradox: To …

Strange Expectations: A Review Of Two Theories Of Judicial Review, Joel Bakan Jan 1990

Strange Expectations: A Review Of Two Theories Of Judicial Review, Joel Bakan

All Faculty Publications

The author examines two theories of judicial review under the Charter, one proposed by D.M. Beatty in Putting the Charter to Work: Designing a Constitutional Labour Code, and the other by P. Monahan in Politics and the Constitution: The Charter, Federalism and the Supreme Court of Canada. He demonstrates how each of these theories attempts to reconcile judicial review under the Charter with the principles of democracy by portraying it (judicial review) as a means for realizing these principles. He then argues that both efforts are ultimately unsuccessful and, indeed, only compound the problems they identify and set out to …


The Medical Malpractice Explosion: An Empirical Assessment Of Trends, Determinants, And Impacts, Michael J. Trebilcock, Donald N. Dewees, David G. Duff Jan 1990

The Medical Malpractice Explosion: An Empirical Assessment Of Trends, Determinants, And Impacts, Michael J. Trebilcock, Donald N. Dewees, David G. Duff

All Faculty Publications

This article briefly describes trends in the frequency and severity of medical malpractice claims in Canada and the U.S., with some comparative references to trends in Britain and Australia. In all cases, frequency and severity rates appear to have risen quite dramatically over the past decade and a half. The article proceeds to explore various hypotheses that might explain these trends. While empirical analysis does not yield firm conclusions, the fact that so many jurisdictions have experienced a somewhat similar phenomenon makes it doubtful that the primary cause of the increase is likely to be idiosyncratic features of one particular …

Promotion Of U.S. Foreign Investment In Selected Eastern European Countries In The 1990’S. Comparative Analysis Of Foreign Investment Laws In Poland, The Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, And Hungary And Possible Impact Of The U.S. Law On Their Operation, Dorota Szewc Jan 1990

Promotion Of U.S. Foreign Investment In Selected Eastern European Countries In The 1990’S. Comparative Analysis Of Foreign Investment Laws In Poland, The Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, And Hungary And Possible Impact Of The U.S. Law On Their Operation, Dorota Szewc

LLM Theses and Essays

Perestroika describes the historical revolution of political and economic reforms which were aimed at accelerating economic growth, democratization, and openness. As the failings of the socialist economic model became more apparent, Eastern European nations were motivated to enact laws allowing foreign investment. A comparative analysis of these foreign investment laws in Poland, the Soviet Union, Hungary, and Yugoslavia is made. Even with the reforms in Eastern Europe, U.S. law may affect the actions of American investors in Eastern Europe. Specifically, U.S. export control laws effect the trade between the U.S. and countries still deemed to be communist, and U.S. antitrust …


Essential Functional Issues In Nepalese Contract Law: A Comparison With United States Law, Tribhuban Dev Bhatta Jan 1990

Essential Functional Issues In Nepalese Contract Law: A Comparison With United States Law, Tribhuban Dev Bhatta

LLM Theses and Essays

American and Nepalese contract law may be put at two ends of spectrum. The former legal system is a long parent system. This comparative study will probe some of the causes of the stasis in Nepalese contract law by examining the Contract Act, cases adjudicated under it, and related provisions of the other laws. The inquiry is restricted to certain selected areas of functional interest form a Nepalese perspective and does not purport to examine interest interrelated doctrinal or other areas with equal thoroughness. The approach throughout is to study the Anglo-American contract law on the subject and compare Nepalese …

Compensatory Discrimination Under The Perspective Of The Equality Clauses Of The Constitutions Of The United States And India, Sujatha Ganesan
