Correcting America’s Continuing Failure to Comply with the A Vena Judgment
Plainly, the external powers of the United States are to be exercised without regard to state laws or policies. The supremacy of a treaty in this respect has been recognized from the beginning. Mr. Madison, in the Virginia Convention, said that if a treaty does not supersede existing state laws, as far as they contravene its operation, the treaty would be ineffective. “To counteract it by the supremacy of the state laws, would bring on the Union …

Revitalizing The U.S. Compliance Power
Although “[tjreaties are the law of the land, and a rule of decision in all courts,” the president and the courts may sometimes be powerless to achieve compliance with a U.S. treaty. That was the puzzling outcome of Medellin v. Texas . Even though the Supreme Court declared that the United States has an international obligation to comply with the Avena judgment of the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the Court invalidated the president’s mem…
The ILO Convention on Freedom of Association and Its Future in the United States
This paper addresses the status of the international law convention on freedom of association in the United States. Although the United States supported the adoption of the Convention on Freedom of Association (#87) in the International Labour Organization in 1948, the U.S. government has not ratified that Convention. Instead, the Convention has sat on the shelf in the United States Senate since 1949, the longest unratified convention on the trea…
Nongovernmental Organizations and International Law
Nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) have exerted a profound influence on the scope and dictates of international law. NGOs have fostered treaties, promoted the creation of new international organizations (IOs), and lobbied in national capitals to gain consent to stronger international rules. A decade ago, Antonio Donini, writing about the United Nations, declared that “the Temple of States would be a rather dull place without nongovernmental org…
Using Framework Statutes to Facilitate U.S. Treaty Making
This paper examines the two tracks used by the United States to negotiate and approve international treaties - (1) the traditional treaty process requiring Senate consent by a two-thirds vote and (2) the newer fast track process used for trade agreements, requiring Congressional passage of a law to approve and implement the agreement. Several historical and current examples are used such as the Treaty of Versailles and the Kyoto Protocol on clima…
The Emergence of Democratic Participation in Global Governance (Paris, 1919)
The theme of this Tenth Anniversary issue, “Globalization and Governance: The Prospects for Democracy,” is a fitting and timely topic. By way of introduction, this article will begin by discussing each of these concepts briefly. “Globalization” has become a buzzword in recent years, in part because it has so many important dimensions. Culture is globalizing as the ideas, styles, and technologies from each society infiltrate others on a continuous…
Triangulating the World Trade Organization
One of the biggest challenges facing the World Trade Organization is to determine its own mission. The failure to launch new trade talks at the WTO’s Ministerial Conference at Seattle in late 1999 was due, in large part, to disagreements between members about what “new” issues should be placed on the negotiating agenda. These problems continued to stymie the WTO in the run-up to the Doha ministerial meeting in 2001
Rethinking WTO Trade Sanctions
The most salient feature of dispute settlement in the World Trade Organization (WTO) is the possibility of authorizing a trade sanction against a scofflaw member government. This feature, however, is a mixed blessing. On the one hand, it fortifies WTO rules and promotes respect for them. On the other hand, it drains away the benefits of free trade and provokes “sanction envy.” Undoubtedly, putting teeth in the WTO was one of the key achievements …
The Greening of the WTO
came at its 1999 meeting in Seattle, where antiglobalization demon strators dressed as sea turtles to highlight the alleged damage wrought by the organization's policies. Similar protests have dogged multilateral trade meetings ever since. But a careful look at the wto's record shows that such attacks are unwarranted. The organization is in fact developing constructive principles for accommodating both trade and environmental concerns. A series o…
