Equitаble pаrticipаtiоn is a cardinal, substantive principle оf IDL. Equitable Participatiоn. The IFC-financed coal-fired power plant in Gujarat, India was the subject of the landmark case, JAM vs. IFC. In that case, the US Supreme Court examined the 1977 Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act (FISA) doctrine of the “commercial activities exception” where foreign governments are denied sovereign immunity when they conduct or engage in commercial activities within the United States. The Court found that this exception also applies to international organizations such as the IFC, Inter-American Development Bank and other such organizations. Moreover, the Court found that the International Organizations Immunities Act (IOIA) affords international organizations the same immunity from suit that foreign governments enjoy today under the FSIA. Thus, suit under this FISA exception may be brought, providing that other FSIA requirements are also met. The plaintiff pursued further litigation under the theory that the US Supreme Court had effectively opened the door to lawsuits again the IFC for engaging in “commercial activities” in the US. Plaintiffs cited the fact that the IFC had entered into a loan agreement in Washington, DC that would finance the power plant in India. The DC federal district court denied the plaintiff’s claim in JAM vs IFC, by finding that IFC’s activity in approving the project was not “commercial activity” that took place in the US. The DC court of appeals upheld the district court’s finding, ruling that even though the IFC engaged in “commercial activity” in the US, it could not be sued under the “commercial activity exception,” since the relevant “acts” that caused harm to the plaintiffs took place in India. An en banc hearing before the DC court of appeals was denied, and a further petition of certiorari to the US Supreme Court to rehear the case was also denied. A further petition to the DC court of appeals was also denied in 2022. 1. In your view, was JAM v IFC correctly decided by permitting the DC Circuit Court’s decision to remain in place? If so, why? If not, why not? 2. Do you have any other remedies that the plaintiff should consider at this point? Please explain.
Glоbаlizаtiоn hаs been prоceeding at a furious pace over the past several decades. It allows for the freer movement of goods and services, ideas, information technology and peoples. This has caused upheavals in laws, cultures, languages, and economic production. So, perhaps globalization may be seen as a kind of “Pandora’s Box” containing both positive and negative effects. Globalization is also internally contradictory in that it can level the playing field by making access to global markets and finance open to new actors, thus increasing wealth in developing countries. However, it may, at the same time, cause even more income disparities in the world and accelerate the loss of cultures, languages and traditional ways of life. On the other hand, increased globalization may also fuel a backlash in anti-immigration and protectionist trade policies. 1. Please describe one or two “positive” elements of globalization and contrast them with certain other “negative” impacts of globalization. In your view, can there be a reconciliation of the two? Please feel free to consider and discuss your own experiences and views of globalization from your own personal perspective.
