Class Actions And Group Litigation In Switzerland, Samuel P. Baumgartner
Class Actions And Group Litigation In Switzerland, Samuel P. Baumgartner
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
In what follows, I hope to contribute to that information with a look at group litigation devices in Switzerland. To begin with, Switzerland is one of the many countries that do not currently have an American-style class action. Suggestions to examine the possibility of introducing such a procedural vehicle have met with considerable opposition. Some of the reasons for that opposition are grounded in reactions to litigation in the United States. More broadly, however, there seems to be a general unease with civil litigation involving more than the traditional plaintiff and defendant and an occasional individual joined out of an …
Center Of Main Interests, International Insolvency Case Venue, And Equality Of Arms: The Eurofood Decision Of The European Court Of Justice, Samuel L. Bufford
Center Of Main Interests, International Insolvency Case Venue, And Equality Of Arms: The Eurofood Decision Of The European Court Of Justice, Samuel L. Bufford
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
The European Court of Justice ("E.C.J.") issued a ruling on May 2, 2006 in the Eurofood case, finding that the commencement of an insolvency case for Eurofood in Ireland gave the Irish court priority under E.U. law over a similar insolvency case commenced shortly thereafter in Italy. The E.C.J.'s ruling responded to the Supreme Court of Ireland's referral to the E.C.J. of five questions of E.U. law based on the E.U. Regulation on Insolvency Proceedings ("E.U. Regulation"). The Irish Supreme Court had referred these questions to the E.C.J. preliminary to deciding a pending appeal of the Dublin High Court's decision …
Legal Hurdles To Developing Wind Power As An Alternative Energy Source In The United States: Creative And Comparative Solutions, Adam M. Dinnell, Adam J. Russ
Legal Hurdles To Developing Wind Power As An Alternative Energy Source In The United States: Creative And Comparative Solutions, Adam M. Dinnell, Adam J. Russ
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
This article discusses how parties have used current domestic environmental laws to curb the development of a more "environmentally-friendly" alternative energy source: wind power. As the ever-increasing demand for oil and petroleum around the world leads to rising costs throughout the nation, investing in new energy sources is considered crucial to sustainable development in the United States. Wind power has the potential to serve as a clean, efficient, and renewable source of energy in the 21st Century. The further development of wind power could create a meaningful alternative energy supply, relaxing geopolitical and economic concerns over this country's strict century-old …

The Lisbon Compromise: A Synthesis Between Community Method And Union Acquis, Jacqueline Dutheil De La Rochère
The Lisbon Compromise: A Synthesis Between Community Method And Union Acquis, Jacqueline Dutheil De La Rochère
Fordham International Law Journal
Lisbon is a return to the community method: the word "Constitution" has disappeared along with the goal of drafting a self-sufficient document. A new treaty is proposed for ratification by Member States modifying on one side the Treaty on European Union ("TEU") and on the other side the Treaty establishing the European Community ("EC Treaty"); this last part of the modifying treaty is designated as the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union ("TFEU"). Nothing has improved as regards clarity and simplification: the amendments cover 152 pages and prove very difficult to read in the absence of consolidation, not …
Western Unionizing The Hawala: The Privatization Of Hawalas And Lender Liability, Smriti S. Nakhasi
Western Unionizing The Hawala: The Privatization Of Hawalas And Lender Liability, Smriti S. Nakhasi
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Hawala, an ancient banking system used predominantly in South Asia and the Middle East, has recently posed a regulatory quandary for law enforcement and capital markets.1 This comment addresses the pitfalls of a prominently proposed, well-intentioned solution to bring the hawala system into the modern banking structure and under the regulatory eye of law enforcement. As will be seen, the inherent nature of the hawala system and the lender risks associated with privatizing create enormous obstacles to realizing these privatization efforts. The problem with many proposed solutions is that they try to impose guidelines upon a system based on cultural, …

Towards A Right To Privacy In Transnational Intelligence Networks, Francesca Bignami
Towards A Right To Privacy In Transnational Intelligence Networks, Francesca Bignami
Michigan Journal of International Law
Privacy is one of the most critical liberal rights to come under pressure from transnational intelligence gathering. This Article explores the many ways in which transnational intelligence networks intrude upon privacy and considers some of the possible forms of legal redress. Part II lays bare the different types of transnational intelligence networks that exist today. Part III begins the analysis of the privacy problem by examining the national level, where, over the past forty years, a legal framework has been developed to promote the right to privacy in domestic intelligence gathering. Part IV turns to the privacy problem transnationally, when …
Averting Catastrophe: Why The Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty Is Losing Its Deterrence Capacity And How To Restore It, Orde F. Kittrie
Averting Catastrophe: Why The Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty Is Losing Its Deterrence Capacity And How To Restore It, Orde F. Kittrie
Michigan Journal of International Law
This Article analyzes from a legal perspective the responses of the international community, and especially the Security Council, to the examples of nuclear proliferation outlined in this Article and the impact of those responses on the vitality of the nuclear nonproliferation regime. In doing so, the Article identifies and focuses on two key, interrelated themes. The first theme is the effect on these responses of the NPT's remarkably weak mechanisms for detecting violations of NPT obligations. The second theme is the frequent strong reluctance of the international community, including the Security Council, to impose serious sanctions for proliferation activity when …
Filling The Void: International Legal Structures And Political Risk In Investment, Molly Zohn
Filling The Void: International Legal Structures And Political Risk In Investment, Molly Zohn
Fordham International Law Journal
This Article is broken into five sections. Part I defines political risk. Part II provides a brief review of the academic literature showing the work that has been done in this area of law. Part III argues that there have indeed been oscillations in the degree of political investment risk in the world and explains that investment risks rise when changes in the world power structure cause temporary power vacuums. Once new institutions emerge for the protection of investments, the level of risk declines. Part IV discusses the current trend, in which the world is witnessing the emergence of a …
