TRANSNATIONAL LAW PRACTICE Richard L. Abelt T RANSNATIONAL law practice has grown dramatically in recent years, but scholarship has not kept pace. This Article fills the void in three different, yet related, ways. The first section seeks to explain the patterns of transnational law practice that have emerged in recent decades. The second describes the constraints on transnational practice, especially those imposed by national and supranational regulation. I conclude with proposals about how lawyers, professional organizations, and governments should regulate transnational law practice. Since there is no comprehensive account of the growth of transnational law practice, I have appended one, drawn from a wide variety of sources, including Martindale-Hubbell, the International Financial Law Review, and Business Lawyer,' as well as a dozen interviews with lawyers in t Professor, U.C.L.A. (B.A., 1962, Harvard; LL.B., 1965, Columbia; Ph.D., 1974, London). 1.

  • Anneke Jans' Maternal Grandfather and Great Grandfather
    Anneke Jans’ Maternal Grandfather and Great Grandfather By RICIGS member, Gene Eiklor I have been writing a book about my father’s ancestors. Anneke Jans is my 10th Great Grandmother, the “Matriarch of New Amsterdam.” I am including part of her story as an Appendix to my book. If it proves out, Anneke Jans would be the granddaughter of Willem I “The Silent” who started the process of making the Netherlands into a republic. Since the records and info about Willem I are in the hands of the royals and government (the Royals are buried at Delft under the tomb of Willem I) I took it upon myself to send the Appendix to Leiden University at Leiden. Leiden University was started by Willem I. An interesting fact is that descendants of Anneke have initiated a number of unsuccessful attempts to recapture Anneke’s land on which Trinity Church in New York is located. In Chapter 2 – Dutch Settlement, page 29, Anneke Jans’ mother was listed as Tryntje (Catherine) Jonas. Each were identified as my father’s ninth and tenth Great Grandmothers, respectively. Since completion of that and succeeding chapters I learned from material shared by cousin Betty Jean Leatherwood that Tryntje’s husband had been identified. From this there is a tentative identification of Anneke’s Grandfather and Great Grandfather. The analysis, the compilation and the writings on these finds were done by John Reynolds Totten. They were reported in The New York Genealogical and Biographical Record, Volume LVI, No. 3, July 1925i and Volume LVII, No. 1, January 1926ii Anneke is often named as the Matriarch of New Amsterdam.

  • The Worlds of the Seventeenth-Century Hudson Valley
    1 The Seventeenth-Century Empire of the Dutch Republic, c. 1590–1672 Jaap Jacobs he overseas expansion of the Dutch Republic, culminating in the “First Dutch Empire,” is a remarkable story of the quick rise to prominence of a small country in northwestern Europe. Much smaller Tin population than European rivals like Spain, England, and France, and without considerable natural resources, the Republic was able within a few decades to lay the foundation for a colonial empire of which remnants are still part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands nowadays. This First Dutch Empire, running roughly from the beginning of the seventeenth century until the early 1670s, was characterized by rapid expansion, both in the Atlantic area and in Asia. The phase that followed, the Second Dutch Empire, shows a divergence in development between the East and West. In the East, ter- ritorial expansion—often limited to trading posts, not settlement colonies— continued and trade volume increased, but in the Western theater the Dutch witnessed a contraction of territorial possessions, especially with the loss of New Netherland and Dutch Brazil. Even so, Dutch trade and shipping in the Atlantic was not solely dependent upon colonial footholds, not in the least because the Dutch began to participate in the Atlantic slave trade. This Second Dutch Empire ended in the Age of Democratic Revolutions, when upheavals in Europe and America brought an end to both the Dutch East and West India Companies and led to the loss of a number of colonies, such as South Africa, Sri Lanka, and Essequibo and Demerara on the Guyana coast.

  • One Recipe, Seventeen Outcomes?
    ONE RECIPE , SEVENTEEN OUTCOMES ? Exploring public finance policies and outcomes in the Low Countries, 1568-1795 Oscar Gelderblom and Joost Jonker Utrecht University [email protected] ; [email protected] First, very preliminary draft, 9 September 2010 Abstract We explore the history of public debt management in the Low Countries from the 16 th to the end of the 18 th century to answer why the Habsburg public debt system produce spectacular results in the northern provinces, but not in the southern ones. The answer lies partly in economic, partly in political circumstances. The revolt against Spain pushed the northern provinces into wresting fiscal autonomy from the cities. This institutional change enabled them to use economic growth and wealth accumulation to assume heavy tax and debt burdens in service of defending the Dutch Republic’s independence and prosperity. By contrast, the revolt reinforced local and provincial particularism in the Habsburg dominated south, resulting in low tax yields and low debts. INTRODUCTION Early modern rulers disliked debt and preferred to meet current expenditure from current income. They were fully aware that growing debts created a political risk in the form of a dependency on creditors constraining policy options. Yet a number of countries in pre-industrial Europe did leap the barrier set by current income to create a funded debt (Neal 2000). The usual explanation for this phenomenon is the rise of representative government, through which economic elites could control public 1 finance and secure prompt debt servicing (North and Weingast 1989; Dincecco 2009). This would appear to beg the question.

The Dutch Golden Age and Globalization: History and Heritage, Legacies and Contestations Joop de Jong I. Context In 1579, seven of the seventeen Provinces of the Netherlands unenthusiastically declared their independence from the Habsburg King of Spain, to form the United Provinces, also known as the Union or the Dutch Republic. The new country achieved full international recognition in 1648, even though many states recognized its sovereignty much earlier. The Dutch Republic was small in both size and population. It covered more or less the same territory as the present Dutch state, and had approximately 1.5 million inhabitants in 1600, and about 1.9 million by 1700.1 In 1600, France had 18 million inhabitants, Spain (including Portugal) 11 million, and Great Britain 7 million.2 The province of Holland contributed some 45 percent of the country’s total population.

  • From Urban to Modern Belgian Citizenship
    ZENTRUM FÜR EUROPÄISCHE RECHTSPOLITIK an der Universität Bremen ZERP Edwige Lefebvre A Historical Profile of Belgium: From Urban to Modern Belgian Citizenship ZERP-Diskussionspapier 3/97 Vorwort Der Begriff Bürgerschaft wird allgemein definiert als ein persönlicher Status, be- stehend aus einer Reihe von universellen Rechten (gesetzlichen Ansprüchen ge- gen den Staat) und Pflichten, die für alle Mitglieder eines Nationalstaates einheit- lich gelten (Marshall 1964; Brubaker 1992). In der Annahme, daß eine europäi- sche Bürgerschaft tatsächlich vorstellbar ist und daß ihr die gesetzlichen, politi- schen und kulturellen Traditionen der EU-Mitgliedstaaten zugrundeliegen wür- den, untersucht das ZERP-Projekt Begriffe von Bürgerschaft in Europa die Frage nach den Inhalten und der Bedeutung, die diese europäische Bürgerschaft als integratives Element einer europäischen Politik haben müßte. Die Untersu- chung konzentriert sich auf einige ausgewählte Mitgliedstaaten, nämlich Belgien, Großbritannien, Frankreich, Deutschland und Italien. Die vorliegende Studie umreißt die Entwicklung des Konzepts der neuzeitli- chen belgischen Staatsbürgerschaft bis zum Jahre 1814, dem Ende der franzö- sischen Annexion der belgischen Provinzen (départements). Die Arbeit verfolgt zwei grobe Ziele: Zum einen behandelt sie die Ursachen der verzögerten Gründung des belgischen Staates, zum anderen untersucht sie die Geschichte der Städte und Fürstentümer der Südlichen Niederlande. Außer- dem soll der Nachweis angetreten werden, daß sich in den verschiedenen Regi- onen

In line with ECDPM's mission to inform and facilitate EU-Africa policy dialogue, and financed by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, BMZ, the studies analyse key policy areas of seventeen regional organisations in Sub-Saharan Africa. In doing so they address three broad questions: What is the political traction of the organisations around different policy areas? What are the key member state interests in the regional agenda? What are the areas with most future traction for regional organisations to promote cooperation and integration around specific areas? The studies aim to advance thinking on how regional policies play out in practice, and ways to promote politically feasible and adaptive approaches to regional cooperation and integration.

Acknowledgements I would like to thank all interviewees mentioned in the annex for their time to respond to questions and for sharing relevant documents. Interviews were gathered during visits to Kigali and Nairobi as well as via Skype and telephone calls. A visit to the ICGLR Secretariat in Bujumbura was unfortunately not possible due to German foreign policy and security regulations according to which only a very limited number of professionals working under German funding are allowed to visit Burundi.

Rich in cities and strategically placed in northwestern Europe, they were also a cornerstone of that period’s greatest monarchy. But as Alastair Duke has recently shown, there was no standard nomenclature at the time for describing these territories. The Low Countries were referred to by a range of terms, including Gallia Belgica, Germania inferior, and Nederland.1 This lack of a conceptual unity did not, however, stop the governor of Veere in Zeeland, Johan Junius de Jonghe, a member of William of Orange’s inner circle, from arguing in a 1574 defense of the political rights of the States General that the Netherlands had a shared culture, exemplified by the urban chambers of rhetoric and shooting guilds, two popular and unique civic sodalities in the Low Countries that made a large imprint on lay public life. For who does not know that the provinces of these Netherlands have always derived the greatest advantage from being united with each other? Had this union not been the origin of the old custom they have always observed, of assembling towns and provinces for the meeting of the archers and crossbowmen and bearers of other old-fashioned arms, which they call the landjuweel? Why else have the towns
