Business Buy Outs And International Regulation, Keizo Sakata

UC Law SF International Law Review

Although business buy-outs have traditionally been disfavored in Japan, recently Japanese businesses have begun to recognize the numerous benefits business buy-outs offer. The number of Japanese corporations purchasing foreign businesses has dramatically increased in recent years. Business buy-outs, however, pose numerous problems for both the purchasing company and the company being purchased. The author argues that government regulation of business buy-outs should be increased to minimize the problems which may result from such business activity.

Radioactive Waste And Euratom: Towards A More Effective Regime Of Regulation, Samuel B. Angus

UC Law SF International Law Review

The accumulation of radioactive waste is increasingly becoming a world environmental crisis. Radioactive waste poses a special problem to the countries of the European Community. Europe has committed itself to nuclear power and has become one of the world's largest producers of nuclear energy. Moreover, with the 1992 unification of the European Community, nuclear energy output will increase, resulting in a growing production of radioactive waste. Within the European Community, the disposal of radioactive waste is governed by the Euratom Treaty. However, its effectiveness is sharply limited. Individual Member-states retain significant discretion under the Treaty to direct their nuclear energy …

Avoiding Elective Dictatorship In The United Kingdom: Debate On Constitutional And Electoral Reform Through Proportional Representation, John A. Zecca

UC Law SF International Law Review

Constitutional debate in the United Kingdom is focusing on whether the electoral system fairly represents the population. This Note examines the unwritten British Constitution that gives politicians complete control over the country's electoral system. The Note argues that political self-interest has led to current first-past-the-post electoral system that ignores the will of a diverse electorate by polarizing government. The Note then examines alternate electoral systems that use proportional representation to ensure the election of third party candidates. The Note concludes by recommending adoption of an electoral system that incorporates diversity while remaining true to the constitutional heritage of the United …

Extraterritorial Jurisdiction--Environmental Muscle For The North American Free Trade Agreement, Richard Vaznaugh

UC Law SF International Law Review

Critics of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) have often focused on Mexico's lack of regulatory enforcement of environmental protection laws. These critics fear that the passage of NAFTA will cause many industries to flock to the Mexican side of the border. These industries will degrade the local environment in the border region and drive U.S. firms complying with our more burdensome (and hence costly) environmental regulations out of business. This Note proposes as a solution to this problem, applying extraterritorial jurisdiction by U.S. courts over environmental claims arising in Mexico. Congress could, by statute, abolish forum non conveniens …

Resolving Commercial Disputes In China: Foreign Firms And The Role Of Contract Law, Roy F. Grow

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

It is not my intention to explicate China's Foreign Economic Contract Law (FECL), the Joint Venture Law (JVL), or the Foreign Enterprise Income Tax Law (FEITL). The analysis of these codes has been done in great detail by others.' Instead, I will examine the actual behavior of the most important actors governed by this set of laws-the Chinese and foreign enterprises that work with one another and which must find ways to resolve their competing claims. In this study, I will examine the tension between Chinese and foreign firms by focusing on several specific and limited questions having to do …

Subsidiarity And The European Community, George Bermann

Faculty Scholarship

The notion of subsidiarity in European federalism labors from all manner of burdens. It seems elusive by nature, commentators claiming that they do not know what subsidiarity means or, if they do, that they do not see in it anything new. At the same time subsidiarity has been presented at least in some quarters as a panacea for the Community's current malaise. It clearly is not that. Even if subsidiarity has not been oversold, it is almost certainly overexposed, a condition that the present Article is unlikely to cure.

My purpose in this Article is simply to help make some …
