论WTO/DSB贸易与环境争端的新发展

随着国际环境法发展完善的外部推动,WTO/DSB(WTO争端解决机构)通过司法造法逐步确立了贸易与环境争端"环境优先"的裁决思路,促进了贸易与环境的平衡发展。然而,气候国际法进程的停滞和各国低碳转型的经济发展需求,造成以单边可再生能源产业措施为核心的气候与贸易争端频繁发生,DSB面临气候国际法与WTO法规则冲突的解决和协调,并将通过司法造法淡化"环境优先"的裁决思路,这一转型将对气候与环境争端确立可予遵循的新判例。     

国际私法中的国家主权

Bondholder-Stockholder Conflict: Contractual Covenants vs. Court-Mediated Ex-Post Settling-Up

Bondholders have failed to respond to corporate restructurings by demanding more protective provisions; in fact, the trend has been toward fewer rather than more restrictive covenants. In this article, we model the use of contractual covenants as a trade-off between contract implementation costs and deadweight efficiency losses. We find that the current lack of restrictive covenants is arguably consistent with rational investor behavior. The key to this conclusion is the recognition that there is an implicit ex-post settlement component to debt contracts, which is enforced by the courts. A look at the behavior of the courts and of bondholders supports our point of view.

Peasants Make Their Own History, But Not Just as They Please . . .

This essay employs contemporary peasant mobilizing discourses and practices to evaluate the terms in which we understand agrarian movements today, through an exercise of historical specification. First, it considers why the terms of the original agrarian question no longer apply to agrarian change today. The shift in the terms corresponds to the movement from the late-nineteenth century and twentieth century, when states were the organizing principle of political-economy, to the twenty-first century, when capital has become the organizing principle. Second, and related, agrarian mobilizations are viewed here as barometers of contemporary political-economic relations. In politicizing the socio-ecological crisis of neoliberalism, they problematize extant categories of political and sociological analysis, re-centring agriculture and food as key to democratic and sustainable relations of social production.     

The many roads to serfdom

This comment considers the planning/laissez faire debate discussed in the Hayek symposium, and raises three points. The first is that all debates are contextual and Hayek's Road to Serfdom needs to be considered in its contextual setting. The second is that there are many roads to serfdom, not just the one outlined by Hayek, and the Hayek/Lerner debate today would probably focus on a different road than it did in the 1930s. The third is that modern economists' focus on technical issues has in large part removed them from the role that Hayek and other top economists played in their time.
