Globalizing Sanctions Against Foreign Bribery: The Emergence Of A New International Legal Consensus, David A. Gantz
Globalizing Sanctions Against Foreign Bribery: The Emergence Of A New International Legal Consensus, David A. Gantz
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Part I of the article begins with a review of the rationale and key legal ele- ments of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Part II describes recent efforts by the United States to convince other governments and firms of the need for binding, enforceable and universally accepted rules against corrupt payments to foreign public officials. Parts III and IV survey the activities of various governmental organizations and major private sector groups that support international efforts to effectively discourage foreign bribery, re- spectively. The key sections, Parts V and VI, describe, analyze and critique the two major international conventions, the …

Fordham International Law Journal
This Note explores the controversy surrounding MDPs. Part I surveys the legal activities of the Big Six accounting firms.

In addition, Part I studies England's treatment of law firm ownership and MDPs. Finally, Part I offers other reasons for the restrictive rules governing law firm ownership. Part II investigates the arguments in favor of and against MDPs. Part III argues that the current ethics rules permit …
Why Has The Fcpa Prospered, Lee C. Buchheit, Ralph Reisner
Why Has The Fcpa Prospered, Lee C. Buchheit, Ralph Reisner
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
The international reaction to the Helms-Burton Act has been fierce.7 But even while the Helms-Burton debate has been raging, an earlier iece of U.S. legislation, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA or Act), has garnered unexpected flattery from some of the same countries that have been so vigorous in denouncing the Helms-Burton Act. There are two pos- sible explanations for these different reactions.

The articles in this issue represent the results of their research and discussion.
European Constitutionalism And Its Discontents, J.H.H. Weiler, Joel P. Trachtman
European Constitutionalism And Its Discontents, J.H.H. Weiler, Joel P. Trachtman
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Traditionally, the European Community has been set apart from all other international organizations, as well as from states, and Euro- pean Community law has been distinguished from both international law and from domestic law. This was so because of the supposed unique internal structure and processes of the European Community. This "splendid isolation" is no longer viable. Increasingly in the .be- havior - and study - of other transnational organizations, polities or regimes, the European transnational experience has come to provide a model, a yardstick and a set of analytical and critical tools, and per- haps erroneously, a desideratum. While …
Science And International Regulatory Convergence, Jeffery Atik
Science And International Regulatory Convergence, Jeffery Atik
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
National regulation is frequently premised on scientific assump- tions; much of regulatory design is based on scientific findings. Con- sumer product, food and drug and workplace safety standards all depend on a scientific assessment of the risks faced by the public and of the efficacy of an adopted measure in addressing these risks. Build- ing codes, waste disposal protocols and mandated immunization of school children all proceed from the technical recommendations of the scientific community. In current Western society, a regulatory measure lacking a scien- tific basis will be subject to criticism and perhaps ridicule; it may be struck down …
Are Private Remedies In Domestic Courts Essential For International Trade Agreements To Perform Constitutional Functions With Respect To Sub-Federal Governments?, Matt Schaefer
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
The term constitutionalism is increasingly discussed in the context of international trade agreements. A prominent example is Professor Petersmann's writings on the constitutional functions that trade agree- ments could serve by limiting governmental discretion to take welfare- reducing protectionist measures against the long-term interests of a nation and contrary to individual economic liberty.' The absence of such protectionist constraints and foreign trade rights in domestic con- stitutions can be mitigated (and already is mitigated somewhat) through the development of international trade rules and institutions.
The Development Of Compliance Programs: One Company's Experience, Patrick J. Head
The Development Of Compliance Programs: One Company's Experience, Patrick J. Head
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Though the FCPA is only a small portion of the coverage of corporate compliance programs, this perspective will focus on the FCPA and, to a certain extent, on other collateral impact statutes, such as securities and in- ternal revenue laws. It will not delve into related statutes, such as the over- seas reach of antitrust laws.
Book Review: Has Globalization Gone Too Far? By Dani Rodrik. Washington, D.C, Paul B. Stephan
Book Review: Has Globalization Gone Too Far? By Dani Rodrik. Washington, D.C, Paul B. Stephan
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
To this debate comes Dani Rodrik, an economist on the faculty of Har- vard's John F. Kennedy School of Government. In his brief and intriguing book, Has Globalization Gone Too Far?,2 he seeks to make the race-to-the- bottom story respectable for those who take economics seriously. Rather than preaching radical opposition to globalization, however, he proposes moderate and incremental resistance. He outlines policy responses to what he argues are legitimate concerns about the growth of the world economy, encouraging targeted trade barriers based on a demonstrated national con- sensus about legitimate and illegitimate means of production. I will begin by …
Trade Protection In The New Millennium: The Ascendancy Of Antidumping Measures, Christopher F. Corr
Trade Protection In The New Millennium: The Ascendancy Of Antidumping Measures, Christopher F. Corr
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

It then will provide an overview of the antidumping regulatory regime, and the controversy it has engendered. Finally this article will discuss the compli- ance measures that global exporters should consider in order to avoid anti- dumping liability in the future.
Does Russia Need A Securities Law?, Greg Lumelsky
Does Russia Need A Securities Law?, Greg Lumelsky
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
The question in the title of this article is not necessarily rhetorical. Perhaps a more appropriate inquiry is, does Russia need its current securi- ties law?' The response to the titular question is, as I will argue, clearly yes. The answer to the second question is to a large extent negative. Given the prevailing economic conditions in Russia, the course of enterprise pri- vatization, and the principal institutions shaping Russian capital markets, there is good reason to think that rather than assisting the growth and en- trenchment of a market in securities, much of the current Russian securities legislation will …
The Worldwide Banning Of Schmiergeld: A Look At The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act On Its Twentieth Birthday, Stanley Sporkin
The Worldwide Banning Of Schmiergeld: A Look At The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act On Its Twentieth Birthday, Stanley Sporkin
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Many cynics viewed the United States' attempt to ban all forms of cor- porate bribery as another example of the federal government's taking on the role of Don Quixote and tilting at windmills. While the law may not have been taken seriously when it was first enacted, it is clear that it has assumed a prominent place among our federal criminal laws. According to a recent article in the Wall Street Journal, the FCPA remains "the world's toughest law against foreign bribes."9 This article will provide background as to how the law was conceived and will discuss the law's present …
Designing An Fcpa Compliance Program: Minimizing The Risks Of Improper Foreign Payments, Daniel L. Goelzer
Designing An Fcpa Compliance Program: Minimizing The Risks Of Improper Foreign Payments, Daniel L. Goelzer
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Every U.S. company, public or private, that conducts operations out- side of the United States should devote serious consideration to creating and implementing an Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA" or "Act") compli- ance program. In this context, an "FCPA compliance program" means a single, documented, corporate plan designed to reduce the likelihood that the company will engage in violations of the anti-bribery provisions of the FCPA, and to detect such violations and bring them to the attention of sen- ior management, if they occur.' A well-designed compliance program has obvious importance in educating employees concerning their responsibili- ties in this …

The Limitation On Benefit Clause Of The U.S.-German Tax Treaty And Its Compatibility With European Union Law, Dietmar Anders
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Part I also contains an introduction to the U.S.-German Treaty and provides an example of the conflict between U.S. tax treaties and European Union law. Part II analyzes in detail the Treaty's discriminatory features with respect to European Union aw and discusses potential justifications for this discrimination based on the case law of the European Court …
Defending Sec And Doj Fcpa Investigations And Conducting Related Corporate Internal Investigations: The Triton Energy/Indonesia Sec Consent Decree Settlements, Arthur F. Mathews
Defending Sec And Doj Fcpa Investigations And Conducting Related Corporate Internal Investigations: The Triton Energy/Indonesia Sec Consent Decree Settlements, Arthur F. Mathews
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
This article will summarize the foreign bribery/corrupt foreign pay- ments provisions of the FCPA, briefly survey the related books and records and internal accounting controls provisions, analyze available defenses to civil and criminal FCPA charges, and explore sensitive substantive and strategic issues that arise in the defense of SEC and DOJ/grand jury investi- gations and in the conduct of related corporate internal investigations. This article will also analyze the recent SEC consent decree settlements in the Triton Energy/Indonesia case, and explore the types of defenses that might be pursued if an FCPA foreign payments case like Triton were litigated rather …
