Competition Policy In Developing Economies: The Case Of Brazil Symposium On Competition Law And Policy In Developing Countries , Gesner Oliveira, Thomas Fujiwara Jan 2006

Competition Policy In Developing Economies: The Case Of Brazil Symposium On Competition Law And Policy In Developing Countries , Gesner Oliveira, Thomas Fujiwara

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The objective of this article is to discuss the implementation of competition policy in Brazil through a historical perspective. In contrast with the experience of various OECD countries, including the United States in particular, competition policy in Brazil has only recently become relevant. However, its increasing prevalence has not been preceded by the development of a competition culture and institutions. This fact has several implications for policy making. Best practices in the OECD countries cannot be automatically imported without due attention to the peculiarities of a developing economy. This paper is divided into five sections. Section II describes the different …

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The goal of this article is to compare the protections offered to minority shareholders by the Italian system of corporate law with those offered by the U.S. legal system of corporate and securities law in order to determine if Parmalat's minority shareholders would have been better off had Parmalat been an American company listed in the U.S. financial market.

"China Casts A Giant Shadow:" The Developing World Confronts Trade Liberalization And The End Of Quotas In The Garment Industry, John A. Hall Jan 2006

"China Casts A Giant Shadow:" The Developing World Confronts Trade Liberalization And The End Of Quotas In The Garment Industry, John A. Hall

Journal of International Business and Law

This article examines the implications for developing nations of the termination of the thirty-year system of quotas in the global trade in garments and textiles. The quotas fostered the spread of manufacturing throughout the developing world by permitting importing nations to cap imports from specific countries. Developing nations became attractive manufacturing locations thanks to their access to the restricted U.S. and EU markets. The garment industry permitted even the poorest nations to participate in the global economy in an environment largely protected from the harsh realities of unfettered international competition. However, the structure of globalization in the garment industry, with …

Unresolved Questions In The Bill Of Rights Of The New Iraqi Constitution: How Will The Clash Between "Human Rights" And "Islamic Law" Be Reconciled In Future Legislative Enactments And Judicial Interpretations?, Mohamed Y. Mattar

Fordham International Law Journal

This Article endeavors to answer the question, are the provisions on “human rights” and “Islamic Law” in the new Iraqi constitution compatible? The new Iraqi Constitution recognizes the concept of “human rights” in accordance with Iraq's international obligations, establishes an independent “Supreme Commission for Human Rights,” limits the work of governmental intelligence agencies in accordance with human rights, and prohibits tribal customs that contradict human rights. At the same time, the Constitution makes some references to Islamic Shari'ah: it establishes Islam as the official religion of the State, recognizes Islam as a source of legislation, recognizes Iraq as a part …

Art Criticism

v. : ill. ; 22 cm (original analog pub.),If Art Criticism meets some of its editors’ hopes for it, we shall be able to claim the appearance of some art criticism, with subjects arising from the writers’ or editors’ decisions, rather than the art market’s. Articles on individual critics and on current groups and tendencies will lead towards the adequate history of art criticism so badly needed in relation to art and in relation to the literature of other disciplines.

Pharmaceutical Research: Paradox, Challenge Or Dilemma?, Abdul Latif Sheikh Jan 2006

Pharmaceutical Research: Paradox, Challenge Or Dilemma?, Abdul Latif Sheikh

Community Health Sciences

A great deal of pharmaceutical research is nowadays carried out in developing countries such as Pakistan. Is it, however, beneficial for the country and the participants, often the poorly educated and illiterate? Pharmaceutical research in Pakistan can bring benefits to both patients and country. Promotion of good clinical practice and the development of national guidelines are advocated. Government and industry both have a role to play to maintain the right balance.
