The World Trade Organization is a central player in international trade regulation. The rights and duties that form WTO law are not created in a vacuum, however, and there exists a complex network of domestic, regional and international influences on the development of WTO law that go beyond the disciplines found in the covered agreements or the interpretations given by panels and the Appellate Body. As such, understanding the development of WTO law in a wider institutional context is critical to comprehending WTO law in a new age of legal globalization. The Development of World Trade Organization Law: Examining Change in International Law examines the development of WTO law through an analysis of competing global actors, norms, and institutions. Taking a different approach to social-scientific or traditional legal models, this book argues that such globalized actors are the driving force behind the development of WTO law yet not in control of it. Identifying causal language as key to understanding this development, the volume examines three different causal influences: instrumental, systemic, and constitutive. It applies this causal methodology to three key areas of WTO law: safeguard measures, sanitary and phytosanitary measures, and subsidies. The volume provides detailed explanations of why the law has developed as it has and offers insights into the future functioning of the WTO system.

Prohibition on Funding of Unlawful Internet Gambling (US Federal Reserve System Regulation) (FRS) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Prohibition on Funding of Unlawful Internet Gambling (US Federal Reserve System Regulation) (FRS) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This document is published jointly by the Departmental Offices of the Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury") and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Board") (collectively, the "Agencies") to adopt a final rule to implement applicable provisions of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 (the "Act"). The final rule sets out definitions for terms used in the regulation; designates payment systems that could be used by participants in connection with, or to facilitate, a restricted transaction; exempts certain participants in certain designated payment systems from the requirement of the regulation; requires the participants performing non-exempt functions in a designated payment system to establish and implement policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent or prohibit restricted transactions, such as by identifying and blocking such transactions; provides non-exclusive examples of policies and procedures for non-exempt participants in each designated payment system; and sets out the regulatory enforcement framework. In developing this rule, the Agencies have consulted with the Department of Justice, as required by the Act, and have taken into consideration all comments received on the proposed rule issued in October 2007.
