Nauru V. Australia: A Sacred Trust Betrayed?, Ellen M. Fitzgerald

Connecticut Journal of International Law

In May of 1989, the Republic of Nauru, an island nation in the Pacific measuring 8.25 square miles,' filed suit against the Commonwealth of Australia in the International Court of Justice.2 The fundamental legal framework for the Nauruan claim is the 1947 Agreement between Australia, New Zealand and Great Britain, which rendered Nauru a United Nations Trust Territory principally administered by Australia. The factual focus of the pending litigation, however, is an issue which has characterized the relationship between the tiny island and Australia since the early twentieth century; the use, alleged misuse and rehabilitation (or lack thereof) of "certain …

The Law Of The Commons: A Framework For The Efficient And Equitable Use Of The Lagrange Points, Lawrence D. Roberts

Connecticut Journal of International Law

Poets are fond of speaking of outer space as infinite. Having a diameter of billions of light years, the vastness of the universe might just as well be described as infinite. As a practical matter, however, space is finite. That portion of the universe which can be touched by mankind given current technological prowess is comparatively minuscule; encompassing (if one is charitable) only our own solar system. Given the limits imposed by the current state of technology and economic realities, the resources of outer space should be construed as exhaustible, and the acts of one spacefaring nation can and often …

Recent Developments Affecting The International Legal Rights Of Asylum-Seekers In Switzerland: An Overview And Critique, Henry A.J. Ramos

Connecticut Journal of International Law

International observers are typically inclined to think of Switzerland as a leader among nations in the humanitarian field. Underscoring this tendency is a sense of appreciation for that country's historical role in developing the International Committee of the Red Cross,1 its multilingual, multi-cultural traditions,2 and its status as a base of United Nations organizational activity.3 Over the past decade, however, Switzerland's actions in the political asylum domain have seriously undermined its continuing claims to global humanitarian leadership. During this period, as Switzerland has experienced a dramatic increase in the number of asylum status applicants seeking protection in its territory,4 Swiss …

International Law Revisited: Davis V. Davis And The Need For Coherent Policy On The Status Of The Embryo, Dan Fabricant

Connecticut Journal of International Law

In the dozen years since in vitro fertilization (IVF) led to the world's first "test-tube" baby1 and painted a suddenly brilliant horizon for millions of infertile couples, the legal and ethical dilemmas accompanying biotech developments have remained largely overshadowed by the abortion debate that has transfixed the American consciousness since Roe v. Wade.2 When these dilemmas have surfaced, they have illustrated how immensely difficult it is to find principled, policy-oriented solutions to problems that implicate fundamental concerns such as when life begins and, more basically, what constitutes life itself. More importantly, they have served to illustrate the need to re-examine …

Undoing And Redoing Business In South Africa: The Lifting Of The Comprehensive Anti-Apartheid Act Of 1986 And The Continuing Validity Of State And Local Anti-Apartheid Legislation, Lynn Berat

Connecticut Journal of International Law

Foreign investment, direct and indirect, has been of great importance to the South African economy. After World War II, South Africa's cheap labor system attracted billions of dollars in direct foreign investment.' Although the apartheid system of cheap labor was largely responsible for the favorable investment climate,2 the United States government adopted a neutral policy on South African investment by United States companies.' Even the Carter Administration with its foreign policy emphasis on North/South and human rights issues reiterated this position stressing that "[t]he Government should therefore normally avoid measures which would give special incentives or disincentives to investment flows …

Ligament Reconstruction : A Biomechanical Cadaveric Test Of Autogenous Repairs And The In Vivo Evaluation Of Synthetic Scaffold Materials, Anne Marie Daly

Theses

The knee joint is the largest and one of the most complex joints in the human body. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the major intra-articular ligaments responsible for controlling and guiding the knee through most of its range of motion and its rupture alters normal joint mechanics.

One objective of this thesis was to determine if two autogenous tissue ACL reconstruction methods were biomechanically equivalent. The first method using the central one-third of the patellar tendon has been used clinically since the early 1960s. The second method utilizes portions of both the semitendinosus and the iliotibial band. …

The Use Of Self-Managed Teams In Service Industries, Henry F. De Mena

Theses

Self-managed teams in business and industry are groups of workers assigned to perform a complete function in the operation of their company. ream members, when well-trained and multi-skilled, are flexible enough to rotate between positions as needed and to perform the various tasks which compose the complete function. The teams are autonomous, in that they manage themselves. Team leaders are resource persons, not directors. The organizations in which they are used are flat (managerial-wise) since little middle management is required.

Such teams are not uncommon in manufacturing industries. As yet, however, they are less frequently found in service industries, even …
