Commercial Space Activities Under The Moon Treaty, Martin Menter Jan 1980

Commercial Space Activities Under The Moon Treaty, Martin Menter

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

This paper examines the apprehension of private enterprise to invest funds in a moon activity requiring sharing of profits with States that had not shared in the risks involved. In light of the Treaty's negotiated history, conclusions made are that the nature of the sharing has not yet been determined; that such must await a subsequent separate treaty negotiation for the governing international regime when exploitation "is about to become feasible," an eventuality perhaps thirty or more years from now; that in the interim, there is no moratorium on exploitation and States may authorize their governmental and nongovernmental entities to …

Symposium: Transnational Issues In American Antitrust Law Jan 1980

Symposium: Transnational Issues In American Antitrust Law

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

On September 30, 1980, the United States Senate passed a bill that would establish a commission to study the international application of American antitrust laws.' The creation of this commission was prompted in part by the popular belief that the current application of U.S. antitrust laws impedes vigorous American export activity to the detriment of our competitive standing in world markets.2 On the other hand, several foreign nations, angered by extraterritorial application of U.S. laws, have recently enacted statutes that inhibit the ability of anti- trust plaintiffs in the United States to obtain discovery and to collect judgments. In this …

Ambassador Valdez explores the needfor continuing bilateral assistance, and then articulates why it is in the best interests of the United States to provide this assistance. He concludes by setting out the parameters of aforeign aidpolicy …

International Application Of American Antitrust Laws: Issues And Proposals, James A. Rahl Jan 1980

International Application Of American Antitrust Laws: Issues And Proposals, James A. Rahl

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

American antitrust policy in foreign commerce is once again under the pressure of complaints from at home and abroad.' It may seem anomalous that laws intended to protect competition are charged with impairing American "competitiveness," but that is the contention heard in Congress and in business quarters.2 Meanwhile, some foreign nations, including a few who have recently enacted new antitrust laws of their own, complain that our antitrust laws are too aggressive.3 Given the large amount of current discussion and the number of different proposals in Congress, careful study of the issues and of possi- ble solutions is certainly indicated.

The Need For A Thoughtful Assessment Of The Application Of U.S. Antitrust Law To International Transactions, Mark R. Joelson Jan 1980

The Need For A Thoughtful Assessment Of The Application Of U.S. Antitrust Law To International Transactions, Mark R. Joelson

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

It is commonly said that the United States antitrust laws are a cor- nerstone of our free enterprise system and our economic philosophy. It is another truism--one of more recent origin-that the most significant markets and arenas of competition today are the international ones. The daily business news bears out this conclusion. Yet one must also conclude that the relationship between these two indispensable features of our economic life-antitrust laws and international trade-is a troubled one which provides ample material for confusion, dispute and law review comment. Moreover, the debate over the application of United States antitrust law to international …

Mannington Mills, Inc. V. Congoleum Corp.: A Further Step Toward A Complete Subject Matter Jurisdiction Test, Walter S. Weinberg

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Jurisdiction of the American courts under the Sherman Act' has been extended to certain activities which take place outside of the United States. Such an extension is required by the inclusion of a for- eign commerce provision in the antitrust laws that states that restraints of trade or attempts to monopolize "among the several states, or with foreign nations" are violations of U.S. law. The exact reach of the Sherman Act to activities that take place within foreign nations or that involve foreign law is not clear. United States courts, however, generally have taken jurisdiction over foreign activities only when …

The Foreign Sovreign Immunities Act: The Use Of Pre-Judgment Attachment To Ensure Satisfaction Of Anticipated Judgments, Craig J. Hanson

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 19761 (FSIA) was designed to balance the interests of private litigants with commercial or tortious claims2 against foreign states3 with the interests of the United States in minimizing friction with foreign nations.4 The tightrope that the drafters of the Act' walked is nowhere more apparent than in the area of attachment of foreign sovereign assets and execution of judg- ment.
