International Law & International Order, Daniel Patrick Moynihan Jan 1984

International Law & International Order, Daniel Patrick Moynihan

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

It is just a quarter-century since I first came to Syracuse University to teach at the Maxwell School. Sobered by the discovery that elections can be lost as well as won, I settled down and promptly finished my doctoral dissertation in the field of international law and organization. In time, along with Harlan Cleveland, then Dean at Maxwell, I left to join the Kennedy Administration. He became Assistant Secretary of State for International Affairs and, generous as always, he saw to it that I had a small hand in such matters, beginning an involvement that has been more or less …


The Law Of The Sea: Anadromous And Catadromous Fish Stocks, Sedentary Species, And The Highly Migratory Species, John Warren Kindt Jan 1984

The Law Of The Sea: Anadromous And Catadromous Fish Stocks, Sedentary Species, And The Highly Migratory Species, John Warren Kindt

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

The fishing industry has been important to many nations of the world since mankind first sailed the ocean. The diets and economies of many nations are still inextricably linked to the sea. Prior to 1900, the international fishing fleets were guided only by the principle of "catch-as-catch-can."

In addition, the gain to be realized by restricting access and extending jurisdictional claims over the ocean was slight in comparison to the costs of enforcing an exclusive access system. The …


Foreign Sales Corporations: A Viable Solution To The Disc Controversy? Jan 1984

Foreign Sales Corporations: A Viable Solution To The Disc Controversy?

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

The Foreign Sales Corporation Act of 1983 (FSC)1 was introduced in Congress on August 4, 1983 as a replacement for the embattled ten year old tax export aid, the Domestic International Sales Corporation (DISC).2 Given the criticism which has plagued DISC since its inception in 1971, this year's enactment of FSC is indeed a welcome change. However, as a solution to the DISC controversy under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT),3 or as a comparable incentive to DISC, FSC is arguably somewhat lacking.


International Regulation Of Pharmaceuticals: A Who International Code Of Conduct For The Marketing Of Pharmaceuticals? Jan 1984

International Regulation Of Pharmaceuticals: A Who International Code Of Conduct For The Marketing Of Pharmaceuticals?

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

The international pharmaceutical trade is important to both exporting and importing countries. Exporting countries are concerned with maintaining and further expanding their foreign pharmaceutical markets.1 Importing countries, especially developing or less developed countries (LDC's),2 are concerned with the price and quality of drugs that they import.3 Poor and newly independent states that have no pharmaceutical industry of their own are the most vulnerable in the international pharmaceutical trade. They must rely on exports from the more developed nations. The likelihood of these LDC's importing drugs of unacceptable quality. is high6 because they usually buy at the lowest prices available and …
