The Legal Status Of United States Corporations And Individuals In Taiwan If United States--Republic Of China Dipolmatic Relations Were Severed, Preston M. Torbert

UC Law SF International Law Review

The 1977 Ussr Constitution: A Document Of Social, National And International Consolidation, Andrew Sorokowski Jan 1978

The 1977 Ussr Constitution: A Document Of Social, National And International Consolidation, Andrew Sorokowski

UC Law SF International Law Review

Among the new features of the 1977 Soviet Constitution are provisions that strengthen the role of the Communist Party, redefine the powers of the Union Republics, and announce the foreign policy of the U.S.S.R. The author demonstrates that these principal features represent a consolidation of the U.S.S.R.'s power as a multinational party-state of world stature. Yet, this consolidation is a response to the centrifugal forces of social differentiation, non-Russian nationalism, and foreign Communist dissension, which threaten the ideal of Communist uniformity at home and abroad.

The Application Of Forum Non Conveniens In Maritime Personal Injury Actions Brought By Foreign Seamen In Federal Courts: An Analysis And Reappraisal, Eugene Vincent Flynn

UC Law SF International Law Review

Despite the regularity with which the issue of forum non conveniens is raised by defendants in maritime personal injury actions brought by foreign seamen, no reported case has presented a definitive analysis of the doctrine since the Lauritzen-RhodtLs choice of law method was established by the Supreme Court, In order to fill this void the author first suggests policy reasons which underpin the consistent judicial refusal to dismiss cases controlled by American maritime law. Next the author turns to the application of forum non conveniens in cases controlled by foreign law and discusses relatively recent innovations in law, technology and …


Broach Of Duty: The United States Foreign-Trade Zones Program In Transition, Daniel G. Durbin Jan 1977

Broach Of Duty: The United States Foreign-Trade Zones Program In Transition, Daniel G. Durbin

UC Law SF International Law Review

The concept of the foreign-trade zone has undergone recent change in the United States. Under the founding legislation, foreign-trade zones were defined as areas where goods could be stored temporarily without being subject to many customs regulations. Today, the potential purposes and activities for which a zone can be utilized have been extended. The federal court decision in Armco Steel Corp. v. Stans, legislative amendments and policy statements by the Foreign Trade Zones Board have contributed substantially to this evolution. Certainly, observers of its early form would have difficulty recognizing the modern foreign-trade zone.
