The World Trade Constitution, John O. Mcginnis, Mark L. Movsesian Jan 2000

The World Trade Constitution, John O. Mcginnis, Mark L. Movsesian

Faculty Publications

Conventional wisdom holds that the World Trade Organization (WTO) necessarily poses a threat to sovereignty and representative government within its member nations. Professors McGinnis and Movsesian refute this view. They argue that the WTO can be understood as a constitutive structure that, by reducing the power of protectionist interest groups, can simultaneously promote international trade and domestic democracy. Indeed, in promoting both free trade and accountable government, the WTO reflects many of the insights that inform our own Madisonian Constitution. Professors McGinnis and Movsesian reject recent proposals to grant the WTO regulatory authority, endorsing instead the WTO's limited adjudicative power …


Sovereignty, Compliance, And The World Trade Organization: Lessons From The History Of Supreme Court Review, Mark L. Movsesian Jan 1999

Sovereignty, Compliance, And The World Trade Organization: Lessons From The History Of Supreme Court Review, Mark L. Movsesian

Faculty Publications

One of the World Trade Organization’s (WTO's) more remarkable and controversial innovations is its mechanism for resolving trade disputes among member states. Traditionally, states have resolved such disputes in "pragmatic" fashion, through negotiation and compromise informed by the relative power of the parties involved. But no longer: the WTO's Understanding on Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes (the DSU) provides that disputes between member states are to be resolved in adversary proceedings before impartial panels of experts." Under the DSU, panels have authority to decide whether members' laws violate international trade norms; panel decisions are essentially binding, though …

Self-Regulation In Global Electronic Markets Through Reinvigorated Trade Usages, Raj Bhala Jan 1995

Self-Regulation In Global Electronic Markets Through Reinvigorated Trade Usages, Raj Bhala

Faculty Publications

In a global electronic market the role of trade usages must be reinvigorated to better suit the needs of market participants. Contrary to the approach to trade usages often adopted by courts and scholars, usages should not be seen as merely a device to interpret disputed terms in a contract. Rather, they should be viewed as a legal foundation for existing and new trade practices and, therefore, as a source of authority for and legal obligation arising from such practices. In sum, they should be regarded as a means by which participants in global eiectronic markets can engage in self-regulation. …

Energy Trade And The National Security Exception To The Gatt, Donald N. Zillman Jan 1994

Energy Trade And The National Security Exception To The Gatt, Donald N. Zillman

Faculty Publications

Three topics combine in this paper: international trade, national security, and energy. The specific focus of the paper is the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and the "essential security interests" exception contained in Article XXI. The provisions of the GATT set out the structure of a system to encourage international trade by reducing tariffs and other trade barriers. More broadly, many aspects of international trade in energy have developed outside the structure of GATT or with the implied assumption that Article XXI or another GATT exception would take them out of normal GATT arrangements. National security matters have …

The Trade Act Of 1974 Revisited: The Need For Further Reform, Scott C. Whitney Jan 1978

The Trade Act Of 1974 Revisited: The Need For Further Reform, Scott C. Whitney

Faculty Publications

Approximately four months after President Ford signed into law the Trade Act of 1974,1 the first petition for import relief was filed invoking the "liberalized" provisions of Title II.2 In the three years since the effective date of the 1974 Act, the United States International Trade Commission (ITC) has instituted investigations concerning a wide variety of commodities. 3 Nonetheless, even though Congress by enacting the 1974 Act intended to minimize the President's control over trade policy and to make import relief more accessible to both industry and labor, the lTC's recommendations have rarely been followed. This article will analyze the …
