No More Zeroing?: The United States Changes its Antidumping Policy to Comply with the WTO

Introduction

Threatened by trade retaliation against U.S. exports by the European Union ("EU") and Japan, on February 14, 2012, the U.S. Department of Commerce ("DOC") announced a policy change to generally end the practice of "zeroing" in antidumping cases. The DOC had earlier ended zeroing in antidumping investigations; the February 14 policy change covers future administrative reviews of existing antidumping orders, including new shipper reviews, expedited antidumping reviews, and sunset reviews.

Introduction

Beginning in 2010, legislators in half of the U.S. states proposed—and in two states adopted—a series of bills or state constitutional amendments designed to restrict the use of international law and foreign laws by state (and sometimes federal) courts.  This Insight will summarize the trend in adopting legislation hostile to international law and foreign laws and briefly discuss its causes and consequences.

The International Law of Drones

Introduction

When humans first launched themselves into the air to attack their enemies, they used balloons. Later came planes and helicopters. The latest development in the area of airborne attacks takes the human operator out of the air. People may operate unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or drones) thousands of miles from the drone’s location.[1]
