    [Vol. 11 2008] TOURO INTERNATIONAL LAW REVIEW 23 OPTIMAL RULE -SELECTION PRINCIPLES IN ANGLO -AMERICAN CONTRACTUAL JURISDICTION Alan Reed* I. INTRODUCTION Dyspeptic individuals and corporate entities are frequently engaged in multistate litigation as a concomitant of the growing body of activity at an international and interstate level. Litigants, like moths to a flame, are increasingly drawn towards the adventitious benefits of suit before a U.S. Court, and have sought to invoke jurisdiction over non-forum residents. As a consequence the court system has striven manfully, but arguably in vain, to propagate effective substantive principles, which are distilled casuistically in a commercial arena to identify sufficient nexus between a forum state and defendant, satisfying the constitutional standards of due process. 1 A legitimate blue litmus paper template for this important venue resolution conundrum has been difficult to achieve. Interpretative problems are evident in the assimilation of relevant methodological principles. In this context it is substantive principles relating to personal jurisdiction that operate as the fulcrum for a court entering a binding judgment against an impacted party. 2 A defendant will be haled before an alien court to defend an action as a consequence of state level empowerment, through adoption of long-arm statutes. It is vital, however, that the seized court’s exercise of jurisdiction comports with the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to *M.A. (Cantab.), LL.M.

  • The Dimensions of Public Policy in Private International Law
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by UCL Discovery The Dimensions of Public Policy in Private International Law Alex Mills* Accepted version: Published in (2008) 4 Journal of Private International Law 201 1 The problem of public policy in private international law National courts always retain the power to refuse to apply a foreign law or recognise or enforce a foreign judgment on the grounds of inconsistency with public policy. The law which would ordinarily be applicable under choice of law rules may, for example, be denied application where it is “manifestly incompatible with the public policy (‘ordre public’) of the forum”1, and a foreign judgment may be refused recognition on the grounds that, for example, “such recognition is manifestly contrary to public policy in the [state] in which recognition is sought”2. The existence of such a discretion is recognised in common law rules, embodied in statutory codifications of private international law3, including those operating between European states otherwise bound by principles of mutual trust, and is a standard feature of international conventions on private international law4. It has even been suggested that it is a general principle of law which can thus be implied in private international law treaties which are silent on the issue5. The public policy exception is not only ubiquitous6, but also a fundamentally important element of modern private international law. As a ‘safety net’ to choice of law rules and rules governing the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments, it is a doctrine which crucially defines the outer limits of the ‘tolerance of difference’ implicit in those rules7.

  • The Renvoi Debate
    Id-Dritt2006 Volume XIX The Renvoi Debate Dr. Patricia Cassar-Torregiani B.A., LL.D., B.C.L. (Oxon) Introduction 'Much of the discussion of the renvoi doctrine has proceeded on the basis that the choice lies in all cases between its absolute acceptance and its absolute rejection. The truth would appear to be that in some situations the doctrine is convenient and promotes justice, and that in other situations the doctrine is inconvenient and 469 ought to be rejected' . Conflicting views and different approaches seem synonymous with the doctrine of renvoi. It has been regarded by some as a distortion of choice of law principles, while others praise its merits and advocate its 'absolute acceptance'. The ambivalent attitudes that surround renvoi reflect the ambiguity of the subject which the doctrine strives to address - how one is to understand the reference to a foreign lex causae. As Dicey and Morris point out,_ the term 'law of a country' can mean, in its narrower and more usual sense, the domestic law of any country; alternatively, it can refer in its wider sense to all the rules, including the rules of the conflict of laws, which the courts of a country apply to a particular case. This ambiguity of expression 470 gives rise to the very problem of renvoi. This attitude is mirrored in the development of the concept, which has neither been steady nor principled.471 469 Collins L. et al., Dicey and Morris: The Conflict of Laws, 13 ed., London::Sweet and Maxwell, 2000 470 As above 471 Bremer v Freeman (1857) IO against the doctrine.

  • International Investment Law: Understanding Concepts and Tracking Innovations © OECD 2008
    ISBN 978-92-64-04202-5 International Investment Law: Understanding Concepts and Tracking Innovations © OECD 2008 Chapter 1 Definition of Investor and Investment in International Investment Agreements* The definition of investor and investment is key to the scope of application of rights and obligations of investment agreements and to the establishment of the jurisdiction of investment treaty-based arbitral tribunals. This factual survey of state practice and jurisprudence aims to clarify the requirements to be met by individuals and corporations in order to be entitled to the treatment and protection provided for under investment treaties. It further analyses the specific rules on the nationality of claims under the ICSID Convention. As far as the definition of investment is concerned, most investment agreements adopt an open- ended approach which favours a broad definition of investment. Nevertheless recent developments in bilateral model treaties provide explanatory notes with further qualifications and clarifications of the term investment. The survey further reviews the definition of investment under ICSID as well as non-ICSID case-law for jurisdictional purposes. ∗ This survey was prepared by Catherine Yannaca-Small, Investment Division, OECD Directorate for Financial and Enterprise Affairs. Lahra Liberti, Investment Division, OECD Directorate for Financial and Enterprise Affairs prepared Section II of Part II and revised the document in light of the discussions in the OECD Investment Committee. This paper is a factual survey which does not necessarily reflect the views of the OECD or those of its member governments. It cannot be construed as prejudging ongoing or future negotiations or disputes arising under international investment agreements.

  • Legal-Policy Considerations and Conflict Characterisation at the Threshold Between Law Enforcement and Non-International Armed Conflict
    LEGAL-POLICY CONSIDERATIONS AND CONFLICT CHARACTERISATION AT THE THRESHOLD BETWEEN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND NON-INTERNATIONAL ARMED CONFLICT ROB MCLAUGHLIN* When characterising a conflict situation as an international armed conflict, states and other analysts traditionally consider the ‘facts on the ground’. When determining whether a situation is one of civil disturbance and riot, or has risen to the level of a non-international armed conflict (‘NIAC’), there is much greater latitude for legal-policy considerations to influence, and indeed direct, the characterisation decision. This article explores three aspects of legal-policy concern for states dealing with conflict characterisation at this lowest law of armed conflict (‘LOAC’) threshold between less-than-NIAC law enforcement and NIAC: a general outline of three elements of legal-policy discretion that are clearly assumed and inherent within LOAC; legal defensibility, a discourse that is fundamentally governed by the tension between applicable law and policy objectives; and utility, a concern that focuses upon the balance to be struck between the legal argument employed to justify conflict characterisation and the capacity of the state to retain some degree of context control.
