The actions of many regulators and industry participants reveal a telecoms trade war that is dangerously close to spiraling out of hand. This book reviews U.S. and European competition and regulatory initiatives post-WTO and provide both a useful roadmap to today s U.S., EU and WTO telecoms regulation and an examination of various case studies to illustrate their points.

Instead, the authors demons

The decision by the US and UK governments to use military force against Iraq in 2003 and the subsequent occupation and administration of that State, has brought into sharp focus fundamental fault lines in international law. The decision to invade, the conduct of the war and occupation, and the mechanisms used to administer the country all challenge the international legal community placing it at a crossroads. When can the use of force be justified? What are the limits of military operations? What strength does international criminal law possess in the face of such interventions? How effective

At the end of the twentieth century it was thought by many that the Anglo-American system of corporate governance was performing effectively and some observers claimed to see an international trend towards convergence around this model. There can be no denying that the recent corporate governance crisis in the US has caused many to question their faith in this view.
