Anticipating Regulation Of New Telecommunications Technologies: An Argument For The European Model, Jessica Finley Jan 2006

Anticipating Regulation Of New Telecommunications Technologies: An Argument For The European Model, Jessica Finley

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

This paper argues that the United States should look to the European Community in order to rework its telecommunications regulatory structure. More specifically, the United States should reconsider its current system of regulating various telecommunications sectors separately and follow the European Commission by developing a "single regulatory framework." By regulating the telecommunications transmission separately from telecommunications content, the United States can better anticipate emerging technologies rather than struggling to catch up with new technologies as they exceed the reach of the current regulatory framework. Part II will discuss the U.S. and European telecommunications regulatory frameworks. Part III will discuss the …


Competition Policy In Developing Economies: The Case Of Brazil Symposium On Competition Law And Policy In Developing Countries , Gesner Oliveira, Thomas Fujiwara Jan 2006

Best practices in the OECD countries cannot be automatically imported without due attention to the peculiarities of a developing economy. This paper is divided into five sections. Section II describes the different …

Brazil's Recent Threat On Abbott's Patent: Resolution Or Retaliation, Jennifer Bjornberg

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

In June 2005, Brazil threatened to infringe the patent of an anti-AIDS medication, Kaletra, patented and produced by a U.S. based pharmaceutical company, Abbott Laboratories. The resulting controversy necessarily implicated the World Trade Organization's Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property ("TRIPS Agreement") as Brazil was a Member Nation under the agreement and Abbott's product was protected under that agreement. Ultimately, the threat came to a voluntary resolution between both parties, but the dispute raised a number of unique questions relating to international trade and public health concerns. This article will discuss the recent controversy between Abbott and Brazil …
