Report On The Internal Training Program Of Zambia’S Department Of Taxes, Richard Pomp

Faculty Articles and Papers

This report covers a review of the internal training program of Zambia’s Department of Taxes in 1975 and offers numerous suggestions for improvement. The report begins with a brief description of the courses of study in the training program, followed by a discussion of problem areas of the three main components of each course (field training, classroom instruction, and examinations) with recommendations for reform. After noting a general dissatisfaction with the quality of trainees the Tax Department attracts, the report suggests two main avenues for improvement. One avenue is establishing working conditions that attract and keep high-quality individuals. The other …

On Understanding Chinese Law And Legal Institutions, Stanley B. Lubman

Hong Yen Chang Center for Chinese Legal Studies

Our unfamiliarity with Chinese legal institutions and policies toward law causes misunderstanding of the role of law in the People's Republic of China. The present unimportance of the formal legal system has deep historical reasons. As China's economy becomes more complex, regularity should increase, although it will remain controversial. In commercial contracts with the West, custom performs the role of law.

A Report On Certain Recent Legal Developments In The International Monetary Fund, Joseph Gold

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

In the recent past, the main activity of the International Monetary Fund in connection with the development of international law has been the negotiation and drafting of an amendment of the Fund's Articles of Agreement. The present report deals primarily with that activity, but also comments on the sixth general review of the quotas of member states in the Fund.

On August 15, 1971, the United States, having decided to free itself from certain constraints that had become unacceptable and to exercise greater autonomy for national policies, suspended the convertibility into gold or other reserve assets of balances of United …

Recent Decisions, Susan A. Shands

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

This case presented the district and circuit courts with the problem of how to maneuver the forum's conflict of laws rules in order to apply Texas law to an injury caused by a defective product manufactured in Texas when the injury occurred on foreign soil. On a policy basis, the lower courts did make the more equitable decision in applying Texas law. Viewed under one commentator's test, both lower courts were applying the law that would give the most predictable and uniform results, maintain international and interstate order, simplify the judicial task, advance the forum's interest, and apply the better …

Parity Codetermination In West German Companies And International Law, Wilhelm Wengler

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

German Law on joint stock companies, in conformity with that of nearly all other countries, has long provided that the organs of the joint stock company (Aktiengesellschaft) consist either exclusively of the shareholders themselves (i.e., the general meeting of shareholders) or are elected by them (i.e., the Aufsichtsrat or supervisory board), or that such an elected organ in turn appoint another organ (i.e., the Vorstand or executive board). Ever since the "old" Labor Management Relations Act (Betriebsverfassungsgesetz) of October 11, 1952, however, only two-thirds of the membership of the supervisory boards of the larger joint stock companies are elected by …

Multinational Collective Bargaining--Myth Or Reality?

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

The expansion of the multinational corporation (MNC) has precipitated an international aspect of labor with important consequences for the relationship between employers and employees. Basically, there is an inherent conflict between the objectives of the MNC and the labor union. The MNC endeavors to organize its operations for production where costs are lowest and sales where prices are highest. Given good coordination, the MNC can manage its activities to take advantage of cost differences in labor, capital, tax rates, and market conditions. On the other hand, the labor union seeks to have the MNC return the greatest net benefit to …

Legal And Economic Incentives For Foreign Direct Investment In The Southeastern United States, Paul S. Dempsey

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

The United States of America may well be the most attractive area for investment in the entire world. Foreign investment, although failing to play a dominant role in the American economy, has nevertheless enjoyed a substantial and significant growth in recent years. This contemporary acceleration may be attributed to a number of factors, including, for example: (a) America's enormous pool of skilled and well educated labor; (b) the narrowing of the gap between the cost of United States and foreign labor; (c) the abundance of domestic energy and other raw materials; and (d) the relative docility of the United States …

The Value Of Comparative Constitutional Law, Donald P. Kommers

Journal Articles

The publication of an English translation of a notable decision by a major foreign tribunal' is a fitting occasion on which to discuss the value of comparative constitutional law as a subject of academic study and as a legal discipline of valid current applicability. When referring to comparative constitutional law, I am speaking mainly of case law and most particularly of judicial decisions handed down by national tribunals empowered to review the constitutionality of legislative and executive acts.
