State Trading: Its Nature And International Treatment, Edmond M. Ianni Jan 1983

State Trading: Its Nature And International Treatment, Edmond M. Ianni

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

At least six considerations compel a review of the international practice of state trading. First, state trading is practiced widely throughout the world and embraces at least one quarter of world trade. From a domestic perspective, United States trade with state trading countries continues to grow and, therefore, is directly relevant to the United States national interest. Second, increasing international economic interdependence has augmented the role of state trading in international trade by the inducements of economic necessity and efficiency. Third, recent Eastern European trends toward greater private economic autonomy have facilitated trade relations between free market countries and state …

Appellations Of Origin: The Continuing Controversey, Lori E. Simon Jan 1983

Appellations Of Origin: The Continuing Controversey, Lori E. Simon

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Appellations of origin (appellations d'origine) are geographical denominations that indicate a product's origin, as well as particular distinctive and renowned qualities associated with the location. Because of the singularity of these titles, the disparity in national laws, and the potential for infringement of the rights associated with the names, protection of appeallations of origin continues to be a controversial topic in international trade law. The debate over protection of appellations of origin primarily stems from conflicting national economic interests and divergent fundamental conceptions of the purpose of protecting trade names. It is entangled further by cultural, linguistic, and historical differences …

Reorganization Plan No. 3 Of 1979: Revamping The U.S. Trade Machinery, Eliot B. Schreiber Jan 1980

Reorganization Plan No. 3 Of 1979: Revamping The U.S. Trade Machinery, Eliot B. Schreiber

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The United States is no longer the successful competitor it once was in the international marketplace.I During the last decade, concern has grown in both the national and international communities about the way in which United States trade policy is formulated and imple- mented. This concern has resulted in a reorganized and strengthened U.S. trade machinery. Briefly, the Carter Administration's new Reor- ganization Plan No. 3 of 19792 has placed the responsibility for the negotiation of foreign trade matters and for the formulation of trade policy in the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR), and has called upon …

Gatt Dispute Settlements: A New Beginning In International And U.S. Trade Law, Donald E. Dekieffer Jan 1980

Gatt Dispute Settlements: A New Beginning In International And U.S. Trade Law, Donald E. Dekieffer

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Although the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT)' has been in existence for over two decades, a workable system has only recently developed for resolving disputes between contracting parties. Since its inception, the GATT has been designed to promote the grad- ual dissolution of trade barriers between the major mercantile countries of the world.2 In its early years, the GATT approached this ambitious goal solely through irregular negotiating "rounds" at which the Con- tracting Parties (the nations signatory to the GATT) mutually agreed to reduce their tariff barriers. There was little attempt to develop an effec- tive enforcement mechanism …

Competition, Trade, And The Antitrust Division: 1981, Joel Davidow Jan 1980

Competition, Trade, And The Antitrust Division: 1981, Joel Davidow

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

One of the primary purposes-some would say the primary pur- pose--of antitrust laws is to promote efficient allocation of resources and maximum consumer choice by preventing and punishing artificial barriers to competition and unreasonable restraints of trade.' The An- titrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice has therefore con- cerned itself with the task of breaking down those barriers. In the domestic field, this policy has traditionally taken the form of prosecut- ing persons and corporations who engage in price fixing or market divi- sion, or who obtain or maintain monopoly power by means of abusive practices. More recently, …

Survey Of Czechoslovak Laws Affecting East-West Trade, Stephen J. Vasek Jr. Jan 1972

Survey Of Czechoslovak Laws Affecting East-West Trade, Stephen J. Vasek Jr.

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

Between 1960 and 1967 all of the major codes of Czechoslovak laws were redrafted. The culminating work in the redrafting process was the New Economic Model (NEM) which became effective in January, 1967. Under the NEM, allocation of resources and trade decisions were to be made primarily on the basis of profitability. The key to the implementation of the profit motive was the new market price system, under which prices were eventually to be determined by supply and demand rather than set by administrative fiat. Bonuses were to be paid workers and managers based upon the profitability of their enterprise. …

A Tariff Primer, Stanley J. Emerling Jan 1953

A Tariff Primer, Stanley J. Emerling

Cleveland State Law Review

It is evident from the examination of these cases that the proponents of a tariff policy are well supported by Constitutional authority and logic depending on the time and necessity of the situation. Economically also there are many instances in which a reduction in or denial of tariff policy would be to the detriment of our country. The only point worth taking in summary of this complex problem is the fact that a mere permissive use of a tariff doesn't necessarily mean that the country's best interests are always served by a too rigid application of such measures. The reciprocal …
