The 1977 Ussr Constitution: A Document Of Social, National And International Consolidation, Andrew Sorokowski

UC Law SF International Law Review

Among the new features of the 1977 Soviet Constitution are provisions that strengthen the role of the Communist Party, redefine the powers of the Union Republics, and announce the foreign policy of the U.S.S.R. The author demonstrates that these principal features represent a consolidation of the U.S.S.R.'s power as a multinational party-state of world stature. Yet, this consolidation is a response to the centrifugal forces of social differentiation, non-Russian nationalism, and foreign Communist dissension, which threaten the ideal of Communist uniformity at home and abroad.

Warsaw From The French Perspective: A Comparative Study Of Liability Limits Under The Warsaw Convention, Elizabeth G. Browning

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

The Warsaw Convention, now over 45 years old, was originally designed to aid the growth of a new, undeveloped, and somewhat perplexing commercial enterprise--the international air transportation industry. Unfortunately, the drafters of the Convention took a narrow, and perhaps ill-advised, view of regulation of liability. They limited the carriers' liability for damage to an amount that could easily have been foreseen to be unworkable and they defined the concept of fault in ambiguous terms. While this fledgling attempt to codify an area of private international law was meant to provide a uniformity of terms that would be workable in a …

United States Interests In A Convention On The Law Of The Sea: The Case For Continued Efforts, Jonathan I. Charney

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

Over 150 nations have been engaged in the negotiation of a multilateral Convention on the Law of the Sea at the Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea for more than five years. The negotiations have included virtually every possible issue involving relations between nations with respect to the oceans, such as fishing, national jurisdiction, navigation, environment, scientific research, seabed exploitation, and transfer of technology.' The current product of that negotiation is the Informal Composite Negotiating Text (ICNT), a 198-page document containing 303 treaty articles plus seven annexes. Although the participating nations agree on much of the …

War Crimes Jurisdiction And Due Process: The Bangladesh Experience, Jordan J. Paust, Albert P. Blaustein

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

Must any state that holds and controls prisoners either prosecute those accused of having committed serious violations of international law or extradite them to a state that will prosecute? Finally, would similar breaches of international law by India or Indian troops obviate any jurisdictional competence or duties of India or Bangladesh?

The questions seemed unusual, at least in view of the past practices of international tribunals of the United States in prosecutions of its nationals. Specific criminal applications of relevant international norms had been relatively sparse.' There were problems with the applicability of international norms to Bangladesh, especially during the …
