UCLA Entertainment Law Review

LAW JOURNAL / LAW REVIEW
China’s recent accession into the World Trade Organization provides the nation with an opportunity to become the next major, economic power but also the burden of abiding by international Treaties dealing with various intellectual property protections. Brent T. Yonehara explores the challenge that will lie ahead for China due to its historical and cultural indifference toward Piracy and the existing inefficient system of copyright law enforcement. Along the way, he discusses some actions that China and the United States can pursue in order to ease China’s transition while protecting the American film industry.

Toward Facilitating Cross-Border Secured Financing and Securitization: An Analysis of the United Nations Convention on the Assignment of Receivables in International Trade
Harry C. Sigman and Edwin E. Smith
Business Lawyer
Volume 57, Number 2, February 2002 p.727
LAW JOURNAL / LAW REVIEW
The United Nations Convention on the Assignment of Receivables in International Trade was recently adopted and is now open for signature. The Convention promulgates substantive and choice of law rules that will, if the Convention becomes effective in a sufficient number of countries, significantly improve the feasibility of cross-border transactions involving the assignment of receivables. The Convention will achieve this by reducing or eliminating obstacles to efficient commercial practices and by providing greater certainty on many issues. The authors explain the Convention’s provisions and discuss relevant provisions of Revised U.C.C. Article 9 to facilitate comparison and to assist counsel in understanding how the Convention might affect transactions having a U.S. connection.

Matthew V. Pietsch
Hastings Communications and Entertainment Law Journal (Comm/Ent)
Volume 24, Number 2, Winter 2002 p.273
LAW JOURNAL / LAW REVIEW
An aspect of the Internet that contributes to the difficulty in policing copyright infringement is the inherently international nature of the medium. This article will identify some of the more complicated copyright enforcement issues that exist and will also describe some of the current legal devices available to combat International copyright infringement, such as: (1) the Digital Millennium Copyright Act; (2) the European Union Directive on Electronic Commerce; (3) the World Trade Organization and the related Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property; (4) the World Intellectual Property Organization Copyright Treaty and Performances and Phonograms Treaty; (5) the North American Free Trade Agreement; and (6) Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974. This article will discuss the potential application of each of these bodies of law to the Internet, their shortcomings when applied to the Internet, and some suggestions as to how the current international system of copyright enforcement might be strengthened in the context of the Internet.
