A New Look At The European Economic Community Directive On Insider Trading, Amy E. Stutz

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

On 13 November 1989, the European Council passed a directive on the regulation of insider trading.

International Trade And Investment Regulation: Developing Jurisprudence In Taiwan, Paul S.P. Hsu Jan 1990

International Trade And Investment Regulation: Developing Jurisprudence In Taiwan, Paul S.P. Hsu

Strangers In A Strange Land: Foreign Compulsion And The Extraterritorial Application Of United States Employment Law, Michael A. Jr. Warner

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The increasingly interdependent nature of the world economy has made commonplace the overseas employment of United States citizens by United States multinational corporations. When an American company employs a United States citizen in a foreign country questions arise as to what extent the United States may regulate employment activity taking place outside of United States territorial boundaries. Historically, principles of territoriality and nationality have constrained the ability of a sovereign state to prescribe conduct occurring outside of its boundaries. Under traditional principles of jurisdiction, employee relations fell predominantly under the control of the local authorities where the person or persons …
