Federalism And Concurrent Jurisdiction In Global Markets: Why A Combination Of National And State Antitrust Enforcement Is A Model For Effective Economic Regulation, Katherine Mason Jones 2010 Northwestern Pritzker School of Law

Federalism And Concurrent Jurisdiction In Global Markets: Why A Combination Of National And State Antitrust Enforcement Is A Model For Effective Economic Regulation, Katherine Mason Jones

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The focus of the article is on the proper role of U.S. state governments in regulating international business. The specific issue analyzed is the desirability of having state attorneys general enforce federal antitrust laws in global markets concurrently with federal antitrust regulators. Congress granted state officials this power in 1976. In 2009, however, a large proportion of the world's commerce is now conducted in international, rather than national markets. This development has led Judge Richard A. Posner and others to advocate that the states be stripped of their statutory power to enforce federal antitrust laws on behalf of their residents …


Judicial Politics And International Investment Arbitration: Seeking An Explanation For Conflicting Outcomes, David Schneiderman 2010 Northwestern Pritzker School of Law

Judicial Politics And International Investment Arbitration: Seeking An Explanation For Conflicting Outcomes, David Schneiderman

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

In taking on the controversial debate over the role of state attorneys general in antitrust enforcement, the article draws upon recent legal and historical scholarship on federalism to argue that globalization requires a paradigm change in concepts of U.S. federalism. While many assume that increasing international economic integration makes state participation in economic regulation with international implications inherently problematic, the article demonstrates that, to the contrary, states have an important role to play in the regulation of international business. States have a long history of challenging the federal government in a way that has promoted a robust national dialogue on …


Don't Tread On Me: Has The United States Government's Quest For Customer Records From Ubs Sounded The Death Knell For Swiss Bank Secrecy Laws, Bradley J. Bondi 2010 Northwestern Pritzker School of Law

Don't Tread On Me: Has The United States Government's Quest For Customer Records From Ubs Sounded The Death Knell For Swiss Bank Secrecy Laws, Bradley J. Bondi

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Privacy protection is a defining characteristic of Swiss culture and a pillar of the Swiss economy. For centuries, the Swiss people have coveted the principles of individual privacy, regularly reaffirming those principles in response to referendums designed to limit them. Swiss banking secrecy, one aspect of privacy, is protected by Swiss criminal and civil laws and professional duties. Swiss banks pride themselves on protecting customer identity and have leveraged their legal and cultural commitment to secrecy to gain a competitive advantage in the global banking market. This brief Article discusses the Swiss banking laws that prohibit a Swiss bank from …


Private Commercialization Of Space In An International Regime: A Proposal For A Space District, Zach Meyer 2010 Northwestern Pritzker School of Law

Private Commercialization Of Space In An International Regime: A Proposal For A Space District, Zach Meyer

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The Soviet Union inaugurated the Space Age in 1957 with the launch of the first artificial satellite, Sputnik I, into the Earth's orbit. Human activity in space, once only a dream, had become reality. The hope for human advancement was immense. However, over the past five decades, the progress of the Space Age has not matched the measure of that hope. National space agencies have slowly and inefficiently explored and developed the space frontier. But, the success of a recent private competition suggests a better channel for facilitating space exploration and development: private commercial enterprise. However, certain problems are holding …


Transparency In Lending In The United States And The United Kingdom: Which Business Model Does It Best, Mara Hart 2010 Northwestern Pritzker School of Law

Transparency In Lending In The United States And The United Kingdom: Which Business Model Does It Best, Mara Hart

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The recent downturn of the global economy, spurred in large part by an unparalleled housing crisis and credit crunch in the United States and abroad, cannot be practicably understood or explained by an examination of isolated factors. Although the impact of the economic downturn has been felt globally, many blame the meltdown of the U.S. subprime mortgage market for their individual country's woes. Therefore, the mortgage regulatory scheme in the United States, in terms of lending practices and housing policies, is an important place to begin an inquiry into the origins of the global crisis. In order to better understand …


Short Selling In A Financial Crisis: The Regulation Of Short Sales In The United Kingdom And The United States, Katherine McGavin 2010 Northwestern Pritzker School of Law

Short Selling In A Financial Crisis: The Regulation Of Short Sales In The United Kingdom And The United States, Katherine Mcgavin

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

In a well-regulated market with minimal risk of abuse, the liquidity and information efficiency benefits of short selling far outweigh its potential harm. Contrary to the recent hostility short sellers face from market regulators and the popular press, short sellers in aggregate are neither market villains nor agents of destruction. While a small minority of short sellers have exploited lax regulation and inattentive enforcement of anti-abuse rules to manipulate stock prices and earn substantial fees, these rare episodes suggest that the world's major capital markets need better enforcement of existing rules and not new rules per se. The failure of …


Proportional Pragmatism: A Defense Of International Arbitration Agreements In The Face Of Asymmetrical Paternalism, Rusty O'Kane 2010 Northwestern Pritzker School of Law

Proportional Pragmatism: A Defense Of International Arbitration Agreements In The Face Of Asymmetrical Paternalism, Rusty O'Kane

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

With foreign direct investment's increasingly important role in the global market, a more comprehensive regulatory system has emerged to guide key participants. Bilateral investment treaties have developed as an essential piece of the emerging regulatory system. Bilateral investment treaties are "[international investment] agreements between two countries for the reciprocal encouragement, promotion and protection of investments in each other's territories by companies based in either country." These treaties have drastically affected the way foreign investors interact with host countries, especially in the area of dispute resolution. A distinctive feature of many BITs is that they provide for alternative dispute resolution procedures …
