The Nationality Of Claims Principle Of Public International Law And The Helms-Burton Act, Robert L. Muse

UC Law SF International Law Review

The Helms-Burton act is more than a vehicle for claimants of confiscated Cuban property; it seeks an international moratorium on investment in Cuba to force political change. This use of law to promote foreign policy objectives violates established principles of international law and is at odds with customary government policy.

Mr. Muse argues that the Act violates the nationality of claims principle by providing a right of action in federal courts to Cuban property claimants who were Cuban citizens at the time of confiscation. The vast majority of potential claimants under Title Ill were not U.S. citizens in 1959. Further, …

Judicial Review And Constitutional Stability: A Sociology Of The U.S. Model And Its Collapse In Argentina, Jonathan Miller

UC Law SF International Law Review

A basic trend toward review exercised by a judicial or quasijudicial organ is unquestioned in the modem world today. The most obvious reason for the rise of judicial review is that pluralist societies require a respected institution to resolve disputes over interpretation and application of the rules binding them together. Second, absence of a judicial arbiter risks the transformation of reasonable constitutional disagreements into festering political disputes which threaten the legitimacy of those in power. Third, pluralist societies require organs able to legitimate or disapprove fundamental change when faced with groups prejudiced by the changes.

Despite extensive scholarship on judicial …

United States-Brazil Bilateral Income Tax Treaty Negotiations, Richard Mitchell

UC Law SF International Law Review

Nearly fifty years of intermittent negotiations between the United States and Brazil have failed to produce an income tax agreement acceptable to both nations. Negotiations between the two nations have recently been renewed and the possibility of an acceptable bilateral income tax treaty appears promising. However, two difficult issues remain resolved. The first and traditional sticking point is tax sparing. Brazil would like to see the United States offer tax sparing. In addition, the taxation of fees for technical services has recently emerged as a source of disagreement between the two nations.

This Note will (1) argue that a U.S.-Brazil …

Federal Courts As Weapons Of Foreign Policy: The Case Of The Helms-Burton Act, John Yoo

UC Law SF International Law Review

The Helms-Burton Act's validity must be tested not only against principles of international law and the obligations of international trading agreements, but the statute's use of the federal judiciary. Although the Act may be consistent with jurisdictional principles and agreements such as GATT and NAFTA, it may force federal courts into a role ill-suited for U.S. national security policy and inconsistent with basic constitutional principles.

Professor Yoo argues that whether Helms-Burton violates international law is insignificant to domestic enforcement of Congressional foreign policy objectives. Further, the national security exceptions to GATT and NAFTA provide sufficient latitude to permit the Act's …
