The Legal Development Of The Environmental Policy In The Democratic People's Republic Of Korea, Sangmin Nam

Fordham International Law Journal

Credited with transforming North Korea into a green and livable people's land due to his environmental vision, Kim Il Sung often pointed out serious environmental degradation, such as air pollution in industrial cities, water pollution, and deforestation.

The Free Trade Area Of The Americas And Smaller Economies, The Most Honourable P. J. Patterson Jan 2003

The Free Trade Area Of The Americas And Smaller Economies, The Most Honourable P. J. Patterson

Fordham International Law Journal

Although the FTAA promises growth and development it still poses real challenges and demands some difficult decisions when attempting to achieve its intended goal of promoting stronger, more dynamic trade, and economic growth in this hemisphere. The concerns are greatest for the smaller and more vulnerable economies. They face the prospect of revenue loss through tariff reduction, job losses through consolidation of production centers in more powerful territories, and the demise of marginal and weak producers. It is for these reasons that attention to the status of smaller economies is essential in the FTAA.

Mercosure, The Free Trade Area Of The Americas, And The Future Of U.S. Hegemony In Latin America, Dr. Mario E. Carranza

America's De Facto Guest Workers: Lessons From Germany's Gastarbeiter For U.S. Immigration Reform, Nicole Jacoby

Fordham International Law Journal

Part I of this Note describes West Germany's post-war Gastarbeiter [guest worker] program from 1961 to 1972. Part II focuses on the long-term results of the Gastarbeiter program, with special emphasis on the legal status of Turkish Gastarbeiter in Germany.

If not properly anticipated and planned for, this settlement leads to social stratification and political divisiveness. Part II also presents for comparison U.S. immigration policies and their effect on Mexican immigrant workers. The section asserts that the United States over the …
