Review Comparative Law Yearbook of International Business:Cumulative Index, Volumes 1-22, 1977-2000 (Comparative Law Yearbook of International Business) / Springer:For centuries, inconsistencies were seen as a hindrance to good reasoning, and their role in the sciences was ignored. However, logicians as well as philosophers and historians have shown a growing interest in the matter. Central to this change were the advent of paraconsistent logics, the shift in attention from finished theories to construction processes, and the recognition that most scientific theories were at some point either internally inconsistent or incompatible with other accepted findings. The interest gave rise to important questions. How is "logical anarchy" avoided? Is it ever rational to accept an inconsistent theory? In what sense, if any, can inconsistent theories be considered as true? This collection of papers examines such questions. It contains case studies as well as philosophical analyses, and presents an excellent overview of the different approaches in the domain.

Review The Trade and Customs Law of the European Union / Kluwer Law International:This is a thoroughly revised and extended edition of "The Customs Law of the European Economic Community", including information on the developments of the internal market, the adoption of the Community Customs Code, the completion of the Uruguay Round of GATT negotiations which resulted in the World Trade Organization, and the transformation of the European Community and the European Union. The customs union of the original six member states proved to be a solid base for the evolution of the European integration process in both a political and economic sense. Taking into account the extension of the Community competences, the author extends the notion of customs law to include trade law, and, focusing attention on future developments, tentatively suggests that this should be regarded as the law of the European Union rather than merely of the European Community.

Review International Business and National Jurisdiction / Oxford University Press, USA:Focusing on the relationship between historically exclusive spheres of sovereign interest and legal and practical requirements resulting from the modern transnational commercial environment, this comprehensive study explores American antitrust law and its application to the foreign actions of non-U. S. parties. Through a discussion of American and foreign legal decisions, the authors show how borderlines have been drawn by domestic courts between acceptable conduct abroad and activities that restrain American commerce, as well as how agreements and combinations by American and foreign companies have been treated in foreign courts.

Review European Public Procurement - Legislative History of the Classic Directive 2004/18/EC / Kluwer Law International:Fourteen percent of the European Union's gross domestic product is accounted for by government or public utility works, supply, and service contracts. Yet, in spite of its major importance for the European economy, public procurement remained for a long time one of the areas which benefited least from the creation of the internal market. Awarding contracts across borders was fraught with complicated provisions and rigid, protracted, bureaucratic procedures. Furthermore, the possibility of mainstreaming social and environmental interests in procurement practice seemed remote. In 1996, the Commission proposed amendments to the existing legal framework, prompted by the emergence of the information society, the gradual withdrawal of the State from certain economic activities, and increased budgetary austerity. The ultimate result, after many years of gestation, was Directive 2004/18 of the European Parliament and the Council on the Coordination of Procedures for the Award of Public Works Contracts, Public Supply Contracts and Public Service Contracts. This book gathers into a single source all the legislative documents preceding the coming into effect of this important directive. In great detail it clearly reveals the negotiation and compromise over the realisation of the legislative objectives - modernisation, simplification, and flexibility - in addition to such crucial elements and outcomes of the debate as the following: the introduction of electronic purchasing mechanisms; provisions to avoid conferring advantage on any economic operator or giving preference to any national production; the development of the "negotiated procedure" and the "framework agreement"; environmental impact requirements; provisions for small and medium-size undertakings (SMUs); social and employment policy; compliance and review procedures; protective measures against certain products; and combating corruption and organised crime. The book first presents documents that outline the reasons that led to the intention to integrate public works (93/37/EEC), supply contracts (93/36/EEC), and service contracts (92/50/EEC) into one new directive. Then follow documents that detail the drafting of the recitals in the Preamble, the articles and the annexes. [+]Finally, a list of legislative documents offers as complete an overview as possible of every item that played a role in the creation of Directive 2004/18/EC, including several amendments that have been made to the directive since it came into effect. This unique publication will be a powerful resource for lawyers and policymakers engaged in the development of European procurement law. It will also provide both practitioners and researchers working in the area of European procurement law with an incomparable desktop reference on Directive 2004/18/EC.
