The Impact Of Arbitral Awards On The Development Of International Law: The Development Of The International Law Concerning The Taking Of Foreign-Owned Property, Rainer Gildeggen Jan 1988

The Impact Of Arbitral Awards On The Development Of International Law: The Development Of The International Law Concerning The Taking Of Foreign-Owned Property, Rainer Gildeggen

LLM Theses and Essays

The thesis concludes that arbitral awards do have an impact on the development of international law. It focuses on arbitral awards rendered in disputes between states and on those rendered in investment disputes between states and aliens. In Chapter II theoretical considerations concerning the influence of arbitral awards on the development of the international law are made. Chapter III, which examines the impact of arbitral awards on the development of some rules of the international law concerning the taking of foreign-owned property, illustrates the role which arbitral awards rendered in investment disputes play in the development of international law.


The Reception Of Arbitration In United States Law, Thomas E. Carbonneau Jan 1988

The Reception Of Arbitration In United States Law, Thomas E. Carbonneau

Journal Articles

The willingness of any national legal system to endorse the process of arbitral adjudication can be measured by whether its governing statutory law and accompanying case law sustain the validity of arbitration agreements and limit judicial supervision of arbitral proceedings and awards - in effect, whether the laws of a nation establish a cooperative relationship between the courts and the arbitral process. On both scores, United States law on arbitration evinces a clear determination to support the process. The development of the law has given the framework of arbitral adjudication its necessary systemic autonomy.


Unions And Urinalysis, Deborah A. Schmedemann Jan 1988

Unions And Urinalysis, Deborah A. Schmedemann

Faculty Scholarship

Many private employers seem to be busy deciding whether and how to test employees for drug use. Presumably most of these decisions are made by management acting alone. However, in unionized workplaces—one out of five private sector employees are represented by unions—federal labor law prescribes a different method. That method features collective bargaining by unions and management to set the rules, the use of a private third-party neutral to resolve disputes which arise under those rules (arbitration), and relatively little involvement by the government (the National Labor Relations Board, legislatures, and the courts). This system that labor law prescribes for …

Deferral To Arbitration And Use Of External Law In Arbitration, Theodore J. St. Antoine Jan 1988

Deferral To Arbitration And Use Of External Law In Arbitration, Theodore J. St. Antoine

Articles

proper definition of the appropriate roles of arbitrators, administrative agencies and the courts depends in great part on the notion that, generally speaking, in labor relations, the interpretation and application of contracts is for arbitrators, and the interpretation and application of statutes is for the administrative agencies and the courts. Arbitrators deal primarily with contract rights and administrative agencies, like the NLRB and the courts, deal primarily with statutory rights. If that distinction is maintained, the problems of deferral to arbitration and the use of external law in arbitration can be more easily resolved.

Securities Arbitration After Mcmahon, Constantine N. Katsoris Jan 1988

Securities Arbitration After Mcmahon, Constantine N. Katsoris

Fordham Urban Law Journal

In Shearson/American Express, Inc. v. McMahon, the Supreme Court decided that federal securities claims under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (1934 Act or Exchange Act) are arbitrable. Since McMahon, there has been a flurry of activity in, and focus upon, the general area of arbitration of public securities disputes. This activity has generated particular interest in such subjects as: arbitration forums; pre-trial procedures and discovery; remedies and relief; composition of panels; training, background and evaluation of arbitrators; and the rendering of written opinions. In discussing many of these areas, this Article will track the history of securities arbitration before …


To Arbitrate Or Not To Arbitrate - The Protection Of Rights Under The Age Discrimination In Employment Act - Steck V. Smith Barney, Harris Upham & (And) Co., Thomas D. Rodenberg Jan 1988

To Arbitrate Or Not To Arbitrate - The Protection Of Rights Under The Age Discrimination In Employment Act - Steck V. Smith Barney, Harris Upham & (And) Co., Thomas D. Rodenberg

Journal of Dispute Resolution

The attempt to compel arbitration in a dispute involving federal statutory rights given judicial protection brings into tension two firmly established national policies. On one side, there is the national policy as set forth in the Federal Arbitration Act' (hereinafter Arbitration Act) which strongly favors arbitration agreements.' On the other side, there is the national policy of providing broad access to the courts as the means of enforcing certain statutorily granted rights.' The tension is created when an individual bound by an arbitration agreement raises a claim based on a federal statutory right which is judicially protected. This is precisely …
