Provincial International Status Revisited, Thomas A. Levy May 1976

Provincial International Status Revisited, Thomas A. Levy

Dalhousie Law Journal

The question as to whether the Canadian provinces possess international status caused much ink to flow in Canadian legal discourse from 1965 to 19681. Although the practical problems incident to an alleged provincial international personality remain with us in the mid 1970's, the lawyers have maintained a low profile from 1968 to 1971. In 1971 Anne-Marie Jacomy-Millette's doctoral dissertation was published as L'introduction et l'application des trait~s internationaux au Canada.2 In 1973 Ivan Bernier's magisterial doctoral thesis was published under the title International Legal Aspects of Federalism.3 Although no new ground was broken, Professor Bernier stated the existing comparative and …

Canadian Perspectives On International Law And Organization. Toward An Expanding Role In World Order, John Claydon Sep 1975

Canadian Perspectives On International Law And Organization. Toward An Expanding Role In World Order, John Claydon

Dalhousie Law Journal

In their Introduction to this massive collocation of almost forty essays comprising nearly a thousand pages, the editors advance a series of claims and outline a number of themes which may serve as useful points of departure for considering the contribution of this volume to scholarship in the area of international law and organization. Perceiving the book as providing "for the first time a comprehensive Canadian conspectus on current issues and developments in international law", they state the goal of their endeavour to be "the sketching of a modem Canadian world view." Through emphasis placed by the contributors on issues …

China's Use Of International Law In Border Disputes: The Cases Of India And The Soviet Union, Larry R. Schreiter Oct 1974

China's Use Of International Law In Border Disputes: The Cases Of India And The Soviet Union, Larry R. Schreiter

IUSTITIA

Despite American "containment" in the fifties and sixties, China was nevertheless a major actor on the international scene. The loci of China's practice of international politics ranged from the Bandung Conference to its ideological foray into European politics following the Hungarian rebellion in 1956. Along with this activism in the international environment, China turned her attention in the late fifties to the question of gaining mutual agreements with her neighbors on the delineation and regulation of the boundaries. This concern brought about some marked changes in bilateral foreign policy, and required dealings of both an ideological as well as technical …


"Criminal Records"--A Comparative Approach, Sigmund A. Cohn Feb 1974

"Criminal Records"--A Comparative Approach, Sigmund A. Cohn

Scholarly Works

There is in the United States a need to balance the interest of the public in the apprehension and conviction of criminals with that of individuals arrested but not convicted of any wrongdoing. As has been shown, some of the leading civil law countries have approached this goal in two ways: first, by not requiring an arrest in a great number of criminal cases and thus not furthering in the mind of the public the idea that arrest and criminal wrongdoing are identical, and second, by confining entries in criminal records, at least on principle, to final convictions of criminal …


Legal Approaches To The Trade In Stolen Antiquities, John B. Seabrook Jan 1974

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

The international trade in stolen antiques and artifacts is examined with a focus on restricting such transactions.


Extraterritorial Environmental Protection Obligations Of Foreign Affairs Agencies: The Unfulfilled Mandate Of Nepa, Nicholas A. Robinson Jan 1974

Extraterritorial Environmental Protection Obligations Of Foreign Affairs Agencies: The Unfulfilled Mandate Of Nepa, Nicholas A. Robinson

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

This article will focus on the initial Department of State position, as set forth in a legal memorandum which interpreted NEPA as not requiring compliance by a foreign affairs agency. It will then examine the language of the Act and its legislative history. Finally, the article will reveal a pattern of official self-insulation from national environmental policy, illustrated by the Export-Import Bank's continuing refusal to comply with NEPA's requirements. It will suggest that much remains to be done if NEPA is to be fully effective in governing the extraterritorial consequences of the federal government's actions.


When Smoke Gets In Your Eyes: Proposed Ratification By The United States Of The Geneva Protocol On Chemical-Biological Warfare, Linda C. Fentiman Jan 1974

When Smoke Gets In Your Eyes: Proposed Ratification By The United States Of The Geneva Protocol On Chemical-Biological Warfare, Linda C. Fentiman

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

In light of the Japanese proposal, the current disarmament talks, the Administration's review of the United States' chemical warfare policy, the Defense Department's request for appropriations for production of binary weapons, and the as yet unratified Convention on Bacteriological Weapons and Toxins, it seems more important than ever for the Senate to give its advice and consent to the ratification of the Geneva Protocol. Since the dispute between the Administration and the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is over the interpretation of the scope of the Protocol's chemical warfare prohibition, it seems particularly appropriate at this time to determine whether or …


Force And The Charter In The Seventies, Julius Stone Jan 1974

Force And The Charter In The Seventies, Julius Stone

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

Force and the Charter is a very complex problem. It imports not merely the place of force in the relations of States within the Charter of the United Nations, but also the residual rules of international law, which themselves are very much older-several centuries older at least-than the United Nations. These are the residual rules of international law, customary international law, as we call it, concerning the use of force, insofar as the Charter has not abrogated those rules.


Regulating Foreign-Based Institutions For Collective Investment: The German Statute, The American Experience, And The Oecd Standard Rules, Charles Baskervill Robson Jr. Jun 1973

Regulating Foreign-Based Institutions For Collective Investment: The German Statute, The American Experience, And The Oecd Standard Rules, Charles Baskervill Robson Jr.

Scholarly Works

The purpose of this article is to provide a framework for the comparative and critical examination of the West German Statute Concerning the Distribution of Foreign Investment Shares and the Taxation of their Proceeds of 28 July 1969 and the OECD Standard Rules. The reference point for this framework is the United States Investment Company Act of 1940 which is not only the most pervasive of the regulatory schemes affective collective investment institutions but also undoubtedly the scheme most familiar to most readers. This article will identify a number of the areas in which the American experience with the Investment …


Judicial Recusation In The Fedearl Republic Of Germany, Sigmund A. Cohn Mar 1973

Judicial Recusation In The Fedearl Republic Of Germany, Sigmund A. Cohn

Scholarly Works

The much debated problem of the qualification of judges has two aspects: First, the general qualification of an individual to be a judge and, second, his qualification to be a judge in a specific case. The second aspect, the qualification to be a judge in a specific case, has recently become the object of special attention. The problem has been stated with cogence and breadth by Mr. Justice Frankfurter. The breath of this state lies in the demand that the administration of justice should not only be disinterested in fact but should also reasonably appear to be so. The objective …

The 25th U.N. General Assembly And The Use Of Force, Dean Rusk

Scholarly Works

The law of the United Nations Charter is not now quite the same as it was before the Declaration on Friendly Relations was adopted. Although not a formal enactment, it gives more flesh and bone to key articles, such as article 2(4).

Principles Of Nurnberg As A Defense To Civil Disobedience, The, Charles E. Patterson Jan 1972

Principles Of Nurnberg As A Defense To Civil Disobedience, The, Charles E. Patterson

Missouri Law Review

The judgment of the International Military Tribunal at Nurnberg ignited a controversy which still smolders over the meaning of the principles applied by the Tribunal and their application in international and domestic law. At the core of this continuing controversy is the theory of individual responsibility for the commission of crimes against peace which was formulated in the Charter of the International Military Tribunal and applied in its judgment. In several recent decisions in the courts of the United States this same theory of individual criminal responsibility of a citizen of the United States, arising from the alleged commission of …

Habeas Corpus In Peru: Myth And Reality, H. H. A. Cooper Jan 1971

Habeas Corpus In Peru: Myth And Reality, H. H. A. Cooper

Cleveland State Law Review

The purpose of the present article is not to criticize the laudable project of those whose object is to secure better protection for fundamental human rights, but rather to examine in detail the theory and practice of habeas corpus in one Latin American country, Peru, and to demonstrate that the greatest encroachments on human rights come not from political tyranny, as is popularly imagined, but from the malfunctioning of the legal system itself, against which even the most perfectly conceived habeas corpus is quite ineffective. It is trite but true that a legal system is only as effective as the …

Vietnam And Public International Law, Anthony D'Amato Jan 1969

Vietnam And Public International Law, Anthony D'Amato

Faculty Working Papers

With each international crisis inevitably come the self­styled "realists" proclaiming that there is no such thing as public international law. The Vietnam war is no exception, although here, due to the unusual complexity of the facts and the controversy over the applicable rules of international law, many of the published replies to the "realist's" positions have themselves been insubstantial and unconvincing. Let us look first, briefly, at the arguments of one of the realists, and then, with equal brevity, at some of the counterclaims. The remainder of this comment will be addressed to the larger issues involved and some suggested …
