The Role Of Bilateralism In Fulfilling The Federal-Tribal Relationship: The Tribal Rights-Endangered Species Secretarial Order, Charles Wilkinson Oct 1997

The Role Of Bilateralism In Fulfilling The Federal-Tribal Relationship: The Tribal Rights-Endangered Species Secretarial Order, Charles Wilkinson

Washington Law Review

On June 5, 1997, Secretary of the Interior Bruce Babbitt and Secretary of Commerce William Daley signed a jointly-released Secretarial Order entitled "American Indian Tribal Rights, Federal-Tribal Trust Responsibilities, and the Endangered Species Act"' The Order culminated a year-and-a-half of work by tribes and federal officials to craft an administrative system for resolving difficult questions involving tribal rights and the Endangered Species Act (ESA). The Order is important for the ESA's implementation. It also carries broader significance, for it serves as one major example of how the government-to-government relationship between the United States and Indian tribes can be successfully implemented.

Participation Run Amok: The Costs Of Mass Participation For Deliberative Agency Decisionmaking, Jim A. Rossi Oct 1997

Participation Run Amok: The Costs Of Mass Participation For Deliberative Agency Decisionmaking, Jim A. Rossi

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

This Article addresses the implications of broad-based participatory reforms for administrative process, with a particular focus on how participation reveals itself in different political-theoretic models of agency governance. The first section of the Article explores participation's value to agency governance. The second section of the Article presents three models of agency governance - expertocratic, pluralist, and civic republican - and discusses participation's importance to each model. The Article then posits a distinction between ordinary and constitutive agency decision-making, and explores how participation affects each for the three distinct models of agency governance. The implications of mass participation are explored in …


Franchisor Environmental Liability For Previously Contaminated Property, Patrick J. Kaufmann, William S. Vincent Oct 1997

Franchisor Environmental Liability For Previously Contaminated Property, Patrick J. Kaufmann, William S. Vincent

Faculty Articles

Environmental legislation has created potential liability for retailing franchisees that purchase previously contaminated land. Faced with a decision to distance itself from the site selection process or incur the added costs and potential pricing impacts of greater involvement in the process, franchisors have strong incentives to reduce franchisee support. This reduction in support has detrimental implications for both franchise policy and environmental policy. A paper reports the results of an empirical study that links franchisors' concerns about potential environmental liability to actions to distance themselves from the site selection process or, alternatively, formally to require franchisee environmental investigation of all …

The Market For Loyalties And The Uses Of Comparative Media Law, Monroe E. Price Oct 1997

The Market For Loyalties And The Uses Of Comparative Media Law, Monroe E. Price

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article posits that media regulation is a tool used by governments to maintain power structures through the control of the "market for loyalties." This concept suggests that laws are employed to manage information and cultural narratives, ensuring that those in power retain their influence by shaping public allegiance. The author illustrates this through examples from various countries, demonstrating how each nation tailors its media laws to fit its unique political and cultural contexts.

CAO Creation Pre-1999

Prompted by public concern about alleged non-compliance with policies of the Bank Group, and project-specific controversies (such as the Pangue Dam on Chile's BioBio river), the President and top management of the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA), the two private sector arms of the World Bank Group, have announced their intention to create a review mechanism patterned after the existing World Bank Inspection Panel (which only applies to the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the International Development Association (IDA)). Mr. Wolfensohn, in particular, has supported the extension of the Panel as …

Environmental Regulation Of Russia's Offshsore Oil & Gas Industry And Its Implications For The International Petroleum Market, Deborah K. Espinosa Jul 1997

Environmental Regulation Of Russia's Offshsore Oil & Gas Industry And Its Implications For The International Petroleum Market, Deborah K. Espinosa

Washington International Law Journal

Due to Northeast Asia's increasing energy demand, the Russian Far East's immense oil and gas reserves, and the close physical proximity between the two regions, international petroleum companies are exploring Russia's offshore petroleum reserves in the Far East. The Russian offshore industry, however, presents foreign investors with many legal uncertainties including exposure to environmental liabilities. This Comment suggests that Russia's environmental regulatory system, which includes a constitutional right to a healthy environment, presents international petroleum companies with a new set of circumstances to which they must adapt if Russian reserves are to satisfy Northeast Asia's rising energy needs. To do …


Evidence, Marc T. Treadwell Jul 1997

Evidence, Marc T. Treadwell

Mercer Law Review

Previous surveys have addressed the trend--or at least what the author perceives to be the trend--of the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals in recent years to defer to district court judges' evidentiary decisions. This recent trend can be contrasted with the activism displayed by Eleventh Circuit judges in decisions discussed in earlier survey articles. The effects of this more recent trend are fewer cases in which the Eleventh Circuit devotes extensive examination of evidentiary issues and, when evidentiary issues are addressed, marked deference to district court judges. Although this trend appeared to continue during the current survey period, two decisions …

Environmental Law, W. Scott Laseter, Julie V. Mayfield

Mercer Law Review

This Article marks the fourth survey of environmental law in the Eleventh Circuit. In terms of environmental issues, the most recent period was an active one for the Eleventh Circuit and its associated district courts during which the appellate court handed down its first Endangered Species Act decisions; issued a sweeping decision under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act; and heard several other cases raising important environmental questions. Additionally, the survey period saw a federal district judge from Alabama strike a blow against Superfund's vaunted armor
