Development Decision Making And The Content Of International Development Law, Daniel D. Bradlow Jan 2004

Development Decision Making And The Content Of International Development Law, Daniel D. Bradlow

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

International development law deals with the rights and duties of states and other actors in the development process.

Today there are two competing idealized views of development.

Preemption In The 21st Century: What Are The Legal Parameters?, Paul Williams, Scott Lyons, Tali Neuwirth

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

Few if any have sought to define the legal parameters of the doctrine. The purpose of this article is to help define the appropriate legal parameters for use of the doctrine. This article will first review the strategic rationale for preemption, and a detailed definition of the modern doctrine. This will be followed by a review of the United States’ government’s legal rationale and a review of the emerging legal debate before …
