International Arbitration And Procedures To Enforce Awards In The Relationship Between The United States And Germany, Michael Kronenburg
International Arbitration And Procedures To Enforce Awards In The Relationship Between The United States And Germany, Michael Kronenburg
LLM Theses and Essays
Arbitration has long been regarded as a process that combines finality of decision with speed, low expense, and flexibility in solving problems. For these reasons, arbitration is often favored over litigation for dispute resolution. Particularly in international cases, a businessman may avoid litigation in a foreign country for various reasons: he may be unfamiliar with the proceedings; he may be afraid to find a “forum hostile” because of the different legal and cultural background of the judges; and he may wish to avoid the uncertainty concerning the law arising from the contract. Arbitration proceedings have been held constitutional by the …
Forum Selection And Choice Of Law Clauses In International Contracts: A United States Viewpoint With Particular Reference To Maritime Contracts And Bills Of Lading, Phillip A. Buhler
Forum Selection And Choice Of Law Clauses In International Contracts: A United States Viewpoint With Particular Reference To Maritime Contracts And Bills Of Lading, Phillip A. Buhler
Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press
This Article approaches the topic of forum selection from a U.S. perspective. It is reasonable to expect, however, particularly with regard to bills of lading and maritime trade, that the approach of other nations toward international contracts is, or soon will be, very similar. For the sake of simplicity, "choice of law" and "choice of forum" will be addressed together, and referred to as either "choice of forum" or "forum selection." Many contracts only specify a particular forum, while others specify only the application of a particular law. U.S. courts and international conventions have generally taken the same approach to …

Resolution Of Traffic Accident Disputes And Judicial Activism In Japan, Daniel H. Foote
Resolution Of Traffic Accident Disputes And Judicial Activism In Japan, Daniel H. Foote
Articles
The topic of resolution of traffic accident cases in Japan has already seen two works in English: a 1989 article by J. Mark Ramseyer and Minoru Nakazato in the Journal of Legal Studies and a 1990 article by Takao Tanase in the Law and Society Review. Why yet another article?
First, despite the fine treatment of a wide range of issues in those articles, neither of those works gave much attention to what I regard as one of the most interesting and important aspects of the Japanese treatment of automobile accident cases: namely, the role of the judiciary and the …
Trial By Jury And The Constitutional Rights Of The Accused In Russia, Stephen C. Thaman
Trial By Jury And The Constitutional Rights Of The Accused In Russia, Stephen C. Thaman
All Faculty Scholarship
This article discusses the Russian criminal justice system’s transformation from the unjust Soviet system and the introduction of trial by jury. It specifically addresses the role of supplementary investigations in the new adversary procedure and the newly introduced privilege against self-incrimination. The author concludes that even though reforms have improved the Russian criminal justice system, elements of the Soviet system, such as supplementary investigations, remain, undermining the purpose of the new system.

The Challenge Of Asian Law, Whitmore Gray
The Challenge Of Asian Law, Whitmore Gray
Articles
Several years ago, when U.S. trade across the Pacific finally surpassed that across the Atlantic, a small group of U.S. lawyers were already responding to the challenge of representing clients in transactions in Asia. While few had had the opportunity to take courses dealing with Asian law during their law school years, many entered the field because of undergraduate language and area studies courses. A few had taught courses dealing with Asia before beginning their law studies.

Foreign Private Investment In Palestine: An Analysis Of The Law On The Encouragement Of Investment In Palestine, David P. Fidler
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This Article analyzes the Investment Law and its prospects for encouraging foreign businesses to invest in Gaza and the West Bank (collectively, "Palestinian Territories"). A brief analysis of the importance of foreign private investment to the peace process between Israel and the Palestinian Liberation Organization, and the progress made towards attracting such investment in Gaza and the West Bank since the September 1993 signing of the Declaration of Principles on Interim Self-Government Arrangements, serves as a prelude to a detailed examination of the text of the Investment Law. The author then compares the Investment Law to the latest international practices …

The purpose of this article is to isolate certain problem areas and pose questions, which must be answered in the future.
Much of the material for this paper results from the author’s personal observation of eleven of the first fourteen jury trials and parts of four more trials. The author also …
Regulatory Decisionmaking In The European Commission, George A. Bermann
Regulatory Decisionmaking In The European Commission, George A. Bermann
Faculty Scholarship
As an institution variously described as the "motor" or "engine" of European integration and as the European Union's "executive branch," the Commission of the European Communities finds itself at the center of Community decisionmaking. Yet its decisional processes are still quite poorly understood, at least in the United States. The relatively poor grasp of Commission decisionmaking is certainly not due to any general lack of interest in procedure within the American audience. The problem lies more in the highly restrictive view of decisionmaking that traditionally dominates procedural accounts of the Community institutions. Those accounts have tended to reflect three preoccupations. …
European Community Law From A U.S. Perspective, George A. Bermann
European Community Law From A U.S. Perspective, George A. Bermann
Faculty Scholarship
Although less than forty years have passed since the founding of the European Economic Community (now the European Community), the lifetime of the Community is well marked temporally. The term of each Commission furnishes a convenient time-line for measuring the Community's progress in legal integration. Since the 1970s, each year has been punctuated by two or more "summit" meetings of heads of state or government. These summits not only are key markings in their own right, but also furnish an occasion for additional monitoring of the Community's state of health. Throughout the 1970s and into the 1980s, the Community submitted …
