New Global Potentates: Nongovernmental Organizations And The “Unregulated” Marketplace, Peter J. Spiro Dec 1996

New Global Potentates: Nongovernmental Organizations And The “Unregulated” Marketplace, Peter J. Spiro

Cardozo Law Review

The nation-state surely is in decline. As John McGinnis eloquently demonstrates, power has become increasingly difficult to exercise on a territorial basis, in part because individuals no longer require physical protection from foreign invaders (a service the state performed with elan), in part because vastly enhanced capacities for exit expose states to unprecedented regulatory competition. Barring a resurgent security threat-something that takes the world back to the brink, restores the state's importance as defender, and justifies renewed constraints on mobility-the erosion of state control seems irreversible and undeniable. But if not the state, then what? Through Professor McGinnis's lens …


National Laws And International Markets: Strategies Of Cooperation And Harmonization In The Enforcement Of Competition Law, Spencer Weber Waller Dec 1996

National Laws And International Markets: Strategies Of Cooperation And Harmonization In The Enforcement Of Competition Law, Spencer Weber Waller

Cardozo Law Review

This Article contrasts how two leading competition law systems, the United States and the European Union ("EU"), have reacted to the growing internationalization of markets and the relative decline of the ability of any single jurisdiction to regulate transnational business behavior. For reasons unique to their respective histories, cultures, and politics, these two jurisdictions have adopted very different strategies for dealing with this problem.


Federalism And Liberalism, Mark Tushnet Jul 1996

Federalism And Liberalism, Mark Tushnet

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article explores the role of federalism within the context of John Rawls' political liberalism, arguing that while federal systems are inherently unstable and tend toward centralization, certain institutional designs and a formalist legal culture can slow this drift. Federalism is particularly suited to societies with reinforcing pluralist differences, offering a framework that allows diverse groups to coexist while maintaining stability.


The Evidentiary Burden In Establishing An Article 3(A) Defense To Extradition In Light Of In Re The Requested Extradition Of James Joseph Smyth, A Case Of First Impression, Leslie A. Firtell Jan 1996

The Evidentiary Burden In Establishing An Article 3(A) Defense To Extradition In Light Of In Re The Requested Extradition Of James Joseph Smyth, A Case Of First Impression, Leslie A. Firtell

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The note examines the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals' decision in the case of James Joseph Smyth, which centered on the interpretation and application of Article 3a of the Supplementary Extradition Treaty between the US and the UK. The court overturned the lower court's ruling, holding that Smyth failed to meet the evidentiary burden required to establish a defense against extradition under Article 3a. The decision highlights the challenges of proving future mistreatment based on race, religion, nationality, or political opinions, emphasizing the need for individualized evidence rather than systemic concerns.

Circuit Court Erie Errors And The District Court's Dilemma: From Roto-Lith And The Mirror Image Rule To Octagon Gas And Asset Securitization, Nikiforos Mathews Jan 1996

Circuit Court Erie Errors And The District Court's Dilemma: From Roto-Lith And The Mirror Image Rule To Octagon Gas And Asset Securitization, Nikiforos Mathews

Cardozo Law Review

Part I of this Note examines the mistake made by the Tenth Circuit in Octagon Gas. It further discusses the related problem inherent in a district court's belief that it is bound by a circuit court's previous Erie decision in light of the recent Winter Panel decision. Part II demonstrates that, despite the doctrine of precedent, district courts are not invariably bound by the diversity decisions of their circuit courts under the modem Erie doctrine, and therefore, should independently determine the state issues before them. Part III returns to Winter Panel and examines how the District Court of Massachusetts …

Bosnia-Herzegovina: A Case Study Of Anarchy In The Third World, Alex N. Dragnich Apr 1995

Bosnia-Herzegovina: A Case Study Of Anarchy In The Third World, Alex N. Dragnich

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article examines the historical and political roots of the Bosnian conflict within the broader context of Yugoslavia's dissolution. It argues that the West, particularly Germany and Austria, mismanaged the crisis by prematurely recognizing the secession of Slovenia, Croatia, and Bosnia, which exacerbated the conflict. The analysis critiques the international community's failure to consider Serbia's historical and legal claims, as well as its misinterpretation of the conflict as a simple struggle for democracy rather than a complex ethnic and political dispute. The author contends that Western policies ignored Serbian fears rooted in World War II atrocities and the perceived threat …

The Marginal Relevance Of Choice Of Law Theory, Stewart E. Sterk Jan 1994

The Marginal Relevance Of Choice Of Law Theory, Stewart E. Sterk

Articles

The article critiques the current state of choice of law theory, arguing that existing methodologies, such as interest analysis and territorial approaches, fail to provide a coherent framework for judicial decision-making. It contends that these theories are overly rigid and do not account for the practical, fact-driven nature of how judges make choices. The author proposes a new test based on expressive similarity to address the complexities of modern copyright disputes, aiming to distinguish between protected expression and unprotected ideas. This approach seeks to balance the protection of creative works with the need to prevent overprotection, which could streamline litigation …

The Values Of Federalism, A. E. Dick Howard

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article explores the values and complexities of federalism, emphasizing its role in balancing unity and diversity, limiting the concentration of power, and fostering democratic governance. It highlights federalism's dual purpose of promoting pluralism and local autonomy while maintaining national cohesion. The analysis draws on the U.S. experience to assess federalism's potential relevance for emerging democracies in Central and Eastern Europe, noting both its benefits and limitations.

Texaco V. Pennzoil: The Use And Creation Of Precedent By The Second Circuit, Peter Lushing Apr 1986

Texaco V. Pennzoil: The Use And Creation Of Precedent By The Second Circuit, Peter Lushing

Articles

The article critiques the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit's decision in *Texaco Inc. v. Pennzoil Company*, arguing that the court's ruling was result-oriented and undermined the integrity of judicial precedent. The decision, which stayed the enforcement of a $11.12 billion state court judgment against Texaco, was based on an expansive interpretation of due process and civil rights law. However, the court's attempt to limit its holding to the "extraordinary circumstances" of the case raises concerns about the consistency and fairness of the judicial process, as it creates a precedent that may not be applicable to smaller stakeholders.
