Rhetoric and Rage: Third World Voices in International Legal Discourse by Karen Mickelson: Page 353

The author sets out to question the conventional view taken toward the Third World and international law.  She explores whether there can be said to be a distinctively Third World legal discourse and looks at the works of several prominent Third World international legal theorists in order to delineate such a discourse.   The author concludes by asserting why such a particular Third World approach to the study and practice of international law might be worthwhile to actively develop.

The GATT-WTO System at 50 by Kevin C. Kennedy: Page 421

In light of the fiftieth anniversary of the GATT and WTO on January 1, 1998, the author traces the historical background of the international trade regime and in particular, the market access and legal discipline this regime has fostered over the last half century. The article proceeds to look to the Uruguay Round agreements on market access and the regulation of non-tariff barriers to trade as examples of the GATT-WTO's impact in promoting free trade and increased integration of separate national economies into a single world economy.

Notes and Comments

Russia's Federal Law on Advertising: Permanent Solution or Provisional Stopgap? by Kevin Trost: Page 529

This comment addresses the effects and implications of the Russian Federal Advertising Law on the domestic Russian advertising industry, foreign advertisers interested in entering the Russian commerical market, and former Soviet bloc republics and countries seeking to emulate Russia's regulation of the advertising field.  The comment concludes that many of the Federal Law's provisions remain plagued by vagueness and that clarity is a needed improvement prior to enforcement of the law at the Federal level and including consumers and advertisers in the regulation and enforcement process.  

Confronting the Crisis of Insolvency in China's State-Owned Enterprises: Can the Proposed Bankruptcy Law Erase the Red Ink? by Neal Stevens: Page 551

The author considers the extent to which China's proposed Bankruptcy Law might benefit the domestic economy by easing some of the problems associated with the insolvent state-owned enterprises.  The author traces the history of Chinese bankruptcy law and the circumstances leading to the insolvency of state-owned enterprises.   The article concludes with the assertion that the proposed Bankruptcy Law is unlikely to be successful without both privatization of the state owned enterprises and an end to the Chinese system of price controls.

The Non-Adversarial, Extra-Judicial Search for Legality and Truth: Foreign Notarial Transactions as an Inexpensive and Reliable Model for a Market Driven System of Informed Contracting and Fact-Determination by Pedro A. Malavet: Page 1

The author, a Latin notary, considers from a procedural perspective the reasons the Latin system of notarial transaction has become recognized as an example of a reliable private system of non-adversarial, extra-judicial fact-certification and legal stipulation.  He also describes the notarial transaction, the content of the actual documents, and the process by which they are produced.

A Theory of Universal Democracy by Ali Khan: Page 61

The author employs a synthetic methodology to advance the concept of universal democracy.  While this methodology includes Western liberalism, the idea of Universal Democracy is pluralistic in nature and accommodates diverse economic models, moral codes, and conceptions of freedom.  This theoretical framework asserts that diversity in and of itself is a universal value and rather than advancing an idea of homogenization, suggests that identifying uniform and universal values is an important step in developing and encouraging 'global enmeshment'

Subregional Coalescence in European Regional Integration by Helen E. Hartnell: Page 115

This article traces the structural problem of integrating developed and developing countries as a particularly appropriate explanatory tool for European Integration while viewing the process from the peripheral areas of Central and Eastern Europe.  The author notes the development of subregional initiatives in these areas which may serve as a means to problem-solve some of the inequalities and difficulties associated with the EU's method of top-down, vertical integration.  

Notes and Comments

The Tragedy of Cluster Bombs in Laos: An Argument for Inclusion in the Proposed International Ban on Landmines by Carmel Capati: Page 227

Using the example of post-Vietnam War Laos, the author argues for inclusion of cluster bombs in the International Ban on Landmines.  Asserting that cluster bombs are as destructive as the other forms of antipersonnel weapony the Ban would seek to eliminate, the comment reveals the evolution of cluster bombs in Laos, their technological aspects as weapons of mass destruction, and argues that continued unfettered use will result in continued violations of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Speeches and Essays

Forward by Professor Charles Irish

Protection of Famous Trademarks in Japan and the United States by Kenneth L. Port: Page 259

The definitional and conceptual origins and evolution of trademark law is analyzed through the lens of differing Japanese and American approaches to famous trademarks.  The author argues these vast differences naturally result in various dispute resolution mechanisms and varying levels of copyright protection.  Thus, while trademark protection may be harder to secure than in the U.S., the actual protection once obtained may be stronger overall.

Norms and Property in the Middle Kingdom by Glenn R. Butterton: Page 281

The author traces the modern roots of intellectual property and piracy in China.  Particular focus is placed on the socio-economic reforms of the past several decades which have drastically altered many elements of Chinese economics, politics, and intellectual property rights.  Problems of enforcement remain critical and the author suggests that the development of norms rather than law might best address the evolving changes in Chinese intellectual property reform.

Government Regulation of Technology Licensing in the Pacific Rim: The Legacy of Industrial Property by Erik W. Ibele: Page 299

The author reveals the predominant approaches to government regulation of technology licensing by analyzing the experiences of Japan, South Korea, and the Peoples' Republic of China.  By summarizing 'Western' and Asian concepts of intellectual property protection, the development and conduction of industrial policy in the above countries, and the evolution of technology licensing, the author asserts the importance of technology license scrutiny and approval in the international trade regulation of the Pacific Rim.

Intellectual Property Rights in Taiwan: An Antitrust Perspective by Tze-Shiou Chien: Page 321

This article traces the development and enactment of Taiwan's Fair Trade Law which concerns, modifies, and supplements  current intellectual property laws.   The author asserts that past intellectual property law reforms may have been, in fact, overprotective and that the establishment of a Fair Trade Commission should significantly advance the enforcement of the Fair Trade Law.      

Critical Issues on the Foreign Investment Laws of North Korea for Foreign Investors by Sang-Jick Yoon: Page 325

The author argues that North Korea has become increasingly open to capitalist investment and has promulgated a number of new laws friendly to foreign capital.  Enforcement concerns remain, however, and after explaining the recently enacted laws, the article describes some of the fundamental concerns associated with the North Korean legal structure relevant to international investors.

Space Law Versus Space Utilization : The Inhibition of Private Industry in Outer Space by Richard Berkley: Page 421

More specifically, Mr. Friesen analyzes what occurs when common law courts have to apply substantive civil law: looking mainly at the methods which common law judges employ when they are called upon to interpret the civil code.

U.S. Tobacco Exports: Toward Monitoring and Regulation Consistent with Acknowledged Health Risks by Susan M. Marsh: Page 29

The author calls for the monitoring of, and, "where appropriate", the control of the exportation of tobacco products. She argues that the U.S. has a moral obligation to submit all tobacco products to the same regulations and controls, whether they are destined for use in the U.S. or overseas. Ms. Marsh cites the hypocrisy of U.S. policies which are aimed at both decreasing international use of tobacco and, at the same time, facilitating the sale of U.S. tobacco products overseas.

Latin American Finance: A Financial, Economic and Legal Synopsis of Debt Swaps, Privatizations, Foreign Direct Investment Law Revisions and International Securities Issues by Anthony M. Vernava: Page 89

Notes and Comments

Limits on Foreign Ownership of Radio Licenses Under 47 U.S.C. §310: An Analyses of the Existing Restrictions and Proposed changes in the Telecommunications Act of 1996 by Rahul Kapoor: Page 163

The author takes the position that §310 of the Telecommunications Act of 1934 has "impeded the progress of U.S. broadcasting and telecommunications." Mr. Kapoor calls for the elimination of the indirect foreign ownership restriction in the Act, then makes recommendations for changes to §310 to be implemented through amendments to the Telecommunications Act of 1996.

The Need for Greater Regional Protection for the Human Rights of Women: The Cases of Rape in Bosnia and Guatemala by Scott Splittgerber: Page 185

The author begins by looking at the current status of rape as a violation of human rights law. Mr. Splittgerber then discusses feminist critiques of international approaches to the protection of human rights of women in general.

Taking the position that these institutions have failed to protect the human rights of women in both Guatemala and Bosnia, the author then assesses their potential for effective action in the future.

Transitional Constitutionalism: Politics and Law in the Second Russian Republic by Robert Sharlet: Page 495

The author focuses his analyses on the second Russian Republic which was created in late 1993 with ratification of Russia's post-Soviet Constitution. Mr. Sharlet uses the crisis in Chechnya as an example of the type of situation which will challenge the new Russian Constitutional process.

Professor Gordon Baldwin of the University of Wisconsin Law School and Elizabeth Cooper then offer comments on Mr. Sharlet's Article.

Habeas Corpus or Who Has the Body?: Judicial Review of Arrest and Pre-Trial Detention in Russia by Todd Foglesong: Page 541

Mr. Foglesong begins by examining Russia's first Habeas Corpus law, passed on May 23rd, 1992. He then explains various reactions to the law, concentrating on the judiciary's general reluctance to invoke it. The author explores the threats, harassment and even violence which judges have faced when arrests and detentions are reversed based on the new law. He concludes, however, that more may be at work than these outside pressures. The reluctance to take full advantage of the law, the author argues, may be in large part due to their own doubts about their role as overseer of the police forces.

Donald Downs, Professor of Political Science at the University of Wisconsin then offers a comment on Mr. Foglesong's article.

Legal Assistance in Tsarist Russia: The St. Petersburg Consultation Bureaus by William Pomeranz: Page 586

Mr. Pomeranz examines the need for, creation of and activities of the first konsul'tatsii (consultation bureau) which was established in St. Petersburg in 1870. He points out that the Russian legal profession played a significant role in the creation of this bureau, and then discusses the role which the new organization would go on to play in Tsarist Russian life.

David McDonald of the Department of History at the University of Wisconsin and Michael Gregg Pritchard then offer comments on Mr. Pomeranz's article.
