Post-Wto China Tax Law System Reform And The Rule Of Law: Progress And Prospects, Tianlong Hu Jan 2011

Post-Wto China Tax Law System Reform And The Rule Of Law: Progress And Prospects, Tianlong Hu

SJD Dissertations

A close examination of China's accession commitments reveals that effective economic reform and trade liberalization call for substantiations from a matching legal infrastructure reform. For example, taxpayers' rights protection should be viewed in terms of broader political and civil rights reform. Indeed, a number of the values featured in the WTO principles and the rule of law framework encourage China's further integration into both the global trade network and the international human rights regime. This is particularly evident in the Chinese tax law context. WTO principles and the rule of law requirements must be introduced and evaluated together in tax …

Competitiveness In State Supreme Court Elections, 1945-2009, Herbert M. Kritzer Jan 2011

Competitiveness In State Supreme Court Elections, 1945-2009, Herbert M. Kritzer

Articles

There has been much debate over changes in state supreme court elections. However, most of the research that debate refers to considers a relatively short time span. This paper reports an analysis of contestation and competitiveness in state supreme elections for the entire post-World War II period. The paper considers both primary and general elections (other than retention elections). The central finding of the paper is that outside the South there has in fact been surprising little change, either in whether incumbents are challenged for reelection or in the competitiveness of the elections that are contested (looking separately at open …


Unilateral Alteration Of Public Sector Collective Bargaining Agreements And The Contract Clause, Stephen F. Befort Jan 2011

Unilateral Alteration Of Public Sector Collective Bargaining Agreements And The Contract Clause, Stephen F. Befort

Articles

As public sector budgets have waxed and waned in response to changes in the economic cycle over the past 30 years, public sector employers increasingly have sought to control personnel costs by resorting to measures such as wage freezes and furloughs. Not infrequently, those measures have pitted the viability of collective bargaining agreements against the ability of government to protect its coffers. This article examines those court decisions that have considered the reach of the contract clause in this setting over the past thirty years. Most of these courts properly have applied the principles established by the Supreme Court in …


Property Rights On The New Frontier: Climate Change, Natural Resource Development, And Renewable Energy, Alexandra B. Klass Jan 2011

Property Rights On The New Frontier: Climate Change, Natural Resource Development, And Renewable Energy, Alexandra B. Klass

Articles

This Article explores the history of natural resources law and pollution control law to provide insights into current efforts by states to create wind easements, solar easements, and other property rights in the use of or access to renewable resources. Development of these resources is critical to current efforts to address climate change, which has a foot in both natural resources law and pollution control law. This creates challenges for developing theoretical and policy frameworks in this area, particularly surrounding the role of property rights. Property rights have played an important role in both natural resources law and pollution control …

Pro Se Litigation In Times Of Financial Hardship--A Legal Crisis And Its Solutions, Richard W. Painter Jan 2011

Pro Se Litigation In Times Of Financial Hardship--A Legal Crisis And Its Solutions, Richard W. Painter

Articles

This article discusses recent ABA reports on pro se legal representation and changes to the Rules of Professional Conduct that give lawyers more flexibility in assisting pro se litigants. Because many pro se representations are in family law cases, the article emphasizes the difficulties of pro se litigants in family court. The article then proposes that unauthorized practice of law restrictions be liberalized to allow on-line providers to sell legal forms, assistance with completion of those forms and other law related services. The benefits of allowing such non-lawyer providers entry into the market for legal services outweigh the potential compromise …

The Dodd-Frank Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Provision: Was It Effective, Needed Or Sufficient?, Richard W. Painter

Articles

In Morrison v. National Australia Bank, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in June 2010 that securities fraud suits could not be brought under Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act against foreign defendants by foreign plaintiffs who bought their securities outside the United States (so called, “f-cubed,” securities litigation). The Court held that Section 10(b) reaches only fraud in connection with the, “purchase or sale of a security listed on an American stock exchange, and the purchase or sale of any other security in the United States.” Congress responded to Morrison with Section 929P of the Dodd-Frank Act, which gives federal …
