The Worldwide Banning Of Schmiergeld: A Look At The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act On Its Twentieth Birthday, Stanley Sporkin
The Worldwide Banning Of Schmiergeld: A Look At The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act On Its Twentieth Birthday, Stanley Sporkin
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Many cynics viewed the United States' attempt to ban all forms of cor- porate bribery as another example of the federal government's taking on the role of Don Quixote and tilting at windmills. While the law may not have been taken seriously when it was first enacted, it is clear that it has assumed a prominent place among our federal criminal laws. According to a recent article in the Wall Street Journal, the FCPA remains "the world's toughest law against foreign bribes."9 This article will provide background as to how the law was conceived and will discuss the law's present …
Designing An Fcpa Compliance Program: Minimizing The Risks Of Improper Foreign Payments, Daniel L. Goelzer
Designing An Fcpa Compliance Program: Minimizing The Risks Of Improper Foreign Payments, Daniel L. Goelzer
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Every U.S. company, public or private, that conducts operations out- side of the United States should devote serious consideration to creating and implementing an Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA" or "Act") compli- ance program. In this context, an "FCPA compliance program" means a single, documented, corporate plan designed to reduce the likelihood that the company will engage in violations of the anti-bribery provisions of the FCPA, and to detect such violations and bring them to the attention of sen- ior management, if they occur.' A well-designed compliance program has obvious importance in educating employees concerning their responsibili- ties in this …

Defending Sec And Doj Fcpa Investigations And Conducting Related Corporate Internal Investigations: The Triton Energy/Indonesia Sec Consent Decree Settlements, Arthur F. Mathews
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
This article will summarize the foreign bribery/corrupt foreign pay- ments provisions of the FCPA, briefly survey the related books and records and internal accounting controls provisions, analyze available defenses to civil and criminal FCPA charges, and explore sensitive substantive and strategic issues that arise in the defense of SEC and DOJ/grand jury investi- gations and in the conduct of related corporate internal investigations. This article will also analyze the recent SEC consent decree settlements in the Triton Energy/Indonesia case, and explore the types of defenses that might be pursued if an FCPA foreign payments case like Triton were litigated rather …

Why Has The Fcpa Prospered, Lee C. Buchheit, Ralph Reisner
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
The international reaction to the Helms-Burton Act has been fierce.7 But even while the Helms-Burton debate has been raging, an earlier iece of U.S. legislation, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA or Act), has garnered unexpected flattery from some of the same countries that have been so vigorous in denouncing the Helms-Burton Act. There are two pos- sible explanations for these different reactions.

Globalizing Sanctions Against Foreign Bribery: The Emergence Of A New International Legal Consensus, David A. Gantz
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Part I of the article begins with a review of the rationale and key legal ele- ments of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Part II describes recent efforts by the United States to convince other governments and firms of the need for binding, enforceable and universally accepted rules against corrupt payments to foreign public officials. Parts III and IV survey the activities of various governmental organizations and major private sector groups that support international efforts to effectively discourage foreign bribery, re- spectively. The key sections, Parts V and VI, describe, analyze and critique the two major international conventions, the …

The Development Of Compliance Programs: One Company's Experience, Patrick J. Head
The Development Of Compliance Programs: One Company's Experience, Patrick J. Head
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Though the FCPA is only a small portion of the coverage of corporate compliance programs, this perspective will focus on the FCPA and, to a certain extent, on other collateral impact statutes, such as securities and in- ternal revenue laws. It will not delve into related statutes, such as the over- seas reach of antitrust laws.
The Recognition And Enforcement Of Foreign Equitable Remedies And Other Types Of Non-Money Judgments In United States And French Courts: A Comparative Analysis, Noele Sophie Rigot
The Recognition And Enforcement Of Foreign Equitable Remedies And Other Types Of Non-Money Judgments In United States And French Courts: A Comparative Analysis, Noele Sophie Rigot
LLM Theses and Essays
Courts of industrialized nations are often faced with adjudication of cases which involve foreign components. It is common for those courts to be asked by individuals or legal entities from a transnational environment to adjudicate with regard to some elements already adjudged in a different legal system as if it were a local judgment. The question that arises is how effects should be given when dealing with prior adjudications. Most countries agree to recognize some effects determined by foreign jurisdictions, as long as those determinations meet standards that guarantee proper integration of the foreign decision into the domestic setting. These …
Defensively Invoking Treaties In American Courts--Jurisdictional Challenges Under The U.N. Drug Trafficking Convention By Foreign Defendants Kidnapped Abroad By U.S. Agents, Thomas Michael Mcdonnell
Defensively Invoking Treaties In American Courts--Jurisdictional Challenges Under The U.N. Drug Trafficking Convention By Foreign Defendants Kidnapped Abroad By U.S. Agents, Thomas Michael Mcdonnell
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
This Article unravels the non-self-executing treaty doctrine, examines the invocation of a treaty as a defense to governmental action, and develops a test for when an individual (rather than a government) may assert a treaty defensively in state or federal courts. Lastly, this Article applies this test to state-sponsored kidnapping and the U.N. Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances. The parties to this treaty, which was sponsored by the United States, barred one country's law enforcement agents from operating without permission on another country's soil and rejected a provision requiring a country to extradite its own …
