Can International Legal Principles Promote The Resolution Of Central And East European Transboundary Environmental Disputes?, Paul Williams Jan 1995

Can International Legal Principles Promote The Resolution Of Central And East European Transboundary Environmental Disputes?, Paul Williams

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

The fall of communism and the subsequent opening of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) have revealed a regional ecosystem under serious strain after over forty years of communist stewardship. Although the entire region suffers from an exploited ecosystem, particular destruction has occurred in the border regions of the CEE states. The substantial environmental destruction and continuing degradation in these border regions give rise to a number of transboundary environmental disputes, which must be resolved if the situation is to be alleviated.'


Foreign Investment In Sub-Saharan Africa: How Changing Attitudes Have Affected The Legal Environment In The Post Cold War Era, Joel Waswa Kisubika Jan 1995

Foreign Investment In Sub-Saharan Africa: How Changing Attitudes Have Affected The Legal Environment In The Post Cold War Era, Joel Waswa Kisubika

LLM Theses and Essays

In Sub-Saharan Africa, like many other third world and former Soviet bloc countries, economic development policies revolve around raising the standard of living for their people. Therefore, they are seeking different ways to attract investment, trade, technology, and jobs. The movement towards attracting foreign investment has been paralleled by democratic political reforms and economic liberalization of previously autocratic and restrictive systems. These reforms have been enacted, mostly at the insistence of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, in order to deal with the severe foreign debt situation and improve Sub-Saharan Africa’s opportunities for attracting foreign investment.

Freud As Law Professor: An Alternative History, Charles Yablon Jan 1995

Freud As Law Professor: An Alternative History, Charles Yablon

Cardozo Law Review

We are gathered here today to pay tribute to one of the great legal minds of the twentieth century. In his long and fruitful career as lawyer, law professor, and legal theorist, Sigmund Freud literally revolutionized both the theory and practice of the legal profession. His contributions are to be found everywhere; from his early work on alternative dispute resolution, to his fundamental reconceptualization of the lawyer-client relationship, to his trenchant critiques of the law and economics movement, even the standard fifty-minute billable hour are all reflections of his vast influence on law and legal theory.

The Reunification Of Germany: Comments On A Legal Maze, Jutta Brunnée Oct 1990

The Reunification Of Germany: Comments On A Legal Maze, Jutta Brunnée

Dalhousie Law Journal

In its Preamble, the Basic Law - the constitution - of the Federal Republic of Germany declares itself a transitional order put in place until all Germans can freely decide to live in a reunified Germany. The Preamble is evidence of both history and aspirations of the western part of Germany that emerged from the Second World War. It is now one of the legal foundations for an event that only a year ago few thought was possible: the merging of the German Democratic Republic and the Federal Republic of Germany into one German state. In its preamble and in …


The Beginning Of The Constitutional Era: A Bicentennial Comparative Study Of The American And French Constitutions, Rett R. Ludwikowski Jan 1989

The Beginning Of The Constitutional Era: A Bicentennial Comparative Study Of The American And French Constitutions, Rett R. Ludwikowski

Michigan Journal of International Law

This article is intended only to be introductory. The author is quite aware that the period surrounding the creation of the American Constitution has been profoundly studied; thorough analysis has been provided concerning both the origin and historical development of the American Constitution, as well as the intellectual background of the "founding generation." Characteristically, these studies have focused on the "American constitutional tradition," which means that they have been limited to little more than two centuries of colonial experience. This essay follows a different vein of inquiry. The author's purpose is not to add another article to the numerous works …


Reflections On State Responsibility For Violations Of Explicit Protectorate, Mandate, And Trusteeship Obligations, W. Michael Reisman Jan 1989

Reflections On State Responsibility For Violations Of Explicit Protectorate, Mandate, And Trusteeship Obligations, W. Michael Reisman

Michigan Journal of International Law

There is a rich body of law dealing with breach of treaty, its consequences and the procedural options it gives to the complying party. But violations of treaty obligations by a protecting state are procedurally different from violations between states in legal and political parity and negotiating at arm's length. The protected state or state under protectorate has, by definition, a restricted if not completely suspended competence to operate at the international level and hence is unable to protect its interests against violations by the erstwhile protector. Thus, it should be no surprise that international decision has suspended the operation …

Maximilien Bibaud, 1823-1887: The Pioneer Teacher Of International Law In Canada, R Stj Macdonald Mar 1988

Maximilien Bibaud, 1823-1887: The Pioneer Teacher Of International Law In Canada, R Stj Macdonald

Dalhousie Law Journal

Maximilien Bibaud was a most unusual man: student of philosophy, history, and literature, teacher, author, chronicler and reformer of the law, founder of the first organized law school in Canada, true pioneer of the teaching of international law in this country. Insolently but exhilaratingly new in both his ideas and his techniques for legal education, Bibaud was far in advance of his time. As we mark the centenary of his death in 1987, his interests and achievements are as relevant today as they were when he opened his law school 136 years ago.

International Law And The Grotian Heritage, L C. Green Sep 1987

International Law And The Grotian Heritage, L C. Green

Dalhousie Law Journal

Recent emphasis on codification of this or that aspect of international law has encouraged a number of writers to re-examine the "classics" with a view to ascertaining the extent to which we have moved from the 17th and 18th centuries and how far the views of the "teachers" are still relevant or may even today be regarded as lexferenda. Coincident with the fourth centenary of the birth of Grotius, the Interuniversitair Instituut voor International Recht T.M.C. Asser Instituut in cooperation with the Grotiana Foundation organized a commemorative colloquium in the Peace Palace and the Academy of International Law at the …
