In order for the liberalization and increase of international trade, the free trade agreement is generally deemed a most useful instrumentality within the region. Under the WTO regime, we can see that a plethora of FTA arrangements are negotiated, come into the treaty laws, as well as operate to regulate the binational or tri-national trade disputes on the regional basis. As most typical and frequented in FTAs, they usually include an arbitration and binational panel procedure as a dispute settlement mechanics. In many aspects, the procedures prescribed in most of FTAs could be apposite that most effectively and cheaply handle the disputes arising from the specific binational or trinational treaties. On the other hand, they could offer a chance to avoid the constitutional musters merely because diplomacy, international negotiation, ratification of treaties and approval of them traditionally fall within the powers of Congress or Executive under the separation of powers principle. This paper examined the legal issues as focused upon the NAFTA ch. 19, ch. 11 and US constitution. The chapters instituted the binational panel procedure dealing with the anti-dumping or counter measures as of subsidies, as well as legal dispute from the binational investment arrangements. From the consitutional viewpoint, we can be aware that the chapters could expressly contravene the Article III of original jurisdiction, Eleventh amendment of state sovereignty, and limitations of the treaty making powers inherent in the separation of powers principle. Given the overriding feature of such treaty clauses, the treaty should be ratified through the form of constitutional amendment, which requires a more stern step over most of the civilized constitutional states. The constitution is a supreme law in land, and represents a popular sovereignty as sheerly distinguished from the constitutional function of normal branches. When the special mechanics of dispute settlement may adopt an option of forum for escape, it is viewed that its unconstitutionality could yet be cured because the constitutional language of Article III original jurisdiction is considered mandatory or exclusive. I believe that the constitutional amendment procedure only could properly dispose such arrangements. While some areas of the presidential powers are deemed not subject to constitutional review as resorted upon the doctrine of political question or judicial self-restraint, the current jurisprudence gradually finds some limitations on the presidential power of foreign affairs including the treaty or war making provisions. As for a would-be treaty party of FTA, the constitutional issues raised in US is not entirely irrelevant to the Korean case ahead.

This paper intends to articulate the jurisdictional issue of the Court of International Trade(CIT), particularly dealing with a legal dispute of the Anti-dumping law. While the international trade grows to be marshaled by a new institutional arrangement of WTO dispute settlement system, the role of CIT correspondingly plays a great deal of effect on this area of laws. It is considered that both arbitrating institutions have to drive a reasonable rule over the trade issues. This is particularly so in various viewpoints. The law of USA has influenced significantly over WTO, and its take is fairly greater than other WTO members in economic terms. Under this background, I attempt to probe an attitude of CIT in dealing with jurisdictional issues including the extent of judicial activism and theoretical ground for resolving those issues while providing a comparative articulation to the general doctrine of administrative law. I also point out the significance as well as characteristics of jurisdictional issue in terms of the U. S. legal system, which, I hope, can provide a little guidance to the current Korean jurisprudence. Lastly, I stress the need for judicial reform within Korea as well as more affluent provision of legal counselling, which I think vital to accommodate a rapid development of trade environment.

미합중국은 하나의 국가이다. 그리고 그 國家性에 관한 법적 성격은 우리나라와 같은 단 일국가의 경우와는 달리 연방국가이다. 정치적으로나 대외관계에 있어 하나의 국가로 행동하고 국제법적으로도 하나의 국가로 취급되고 있지만, 聯邦政府와 州와의 관계에 있어 어떠한 구도로 헌법체계 내지 국가체계가 이루어져 있는가는 헌법을 연구하는 학도로서 매우 궁금한 주제가 아닐 수 없다. 이 문제는 한 두 논문으로 해결할 수 없는 매우 광범위한 학문적 문제를 함유하고 있는 것이 사실이다. 물론 그 핵심에 위치하고 있는 것은 단일국가의 경우 와 같이 연방국가의 국가구성에 관한 합의를 담고 있는 연방헌법임은 물론이고, 또 그것이 그 문제에 관한 유일한 권위이다. 이 복잡한 주제를 살펴봄에 있어 본고에서는 가장 소박하게 연방의회와 연방법원의 권한을 살펴 봄으로써 연방국가와 주간의 국가성의 문제의 일각을 해결하여 보려고 시도하였다. 쉽게 말하면 연방국가 내지 연방정부는 단일국가의 중앙정부와 같은 포괄적이고 최고인 통치권을 행사할 수 있는 것이 아니고, 주의 國家性에 배치되지 않는 한도내에서 일부의 통치권을 연방헌법으로부터 부여받고 있다. 물론 연방에 관한 사항에 관하여는 연방헌법 및 연방법의 최고성의 원칙에 따라 연방정부의 권력은 주의 권력에 우선하지만, 그 범위는 제한적이라는 것이다. 따라서 연방의회 및 연방법원의 권한의 범위를 확정하는 것은 연방국가의 통치구도를 이해하는데 있어 매우 중요하다 아니할 수 없다. 州行政府와 聯邦行政府의 권한의 문제는 각 행정부가 연방의회 및 주의회에 의하여 제정된 법률을 충실히 집행하면 되므로 연방의회의 권한을 살펴보면 그 문제는 자연히 해결되는 측면이 있다. 물론 연방대통령은 연방법률의 집행권한외에 연방헌법에 부여된 권한(예컨대 사면권, 법률안거부권 또는 국군통수권 등)을 행사할 수 있는 것은 물론이다. 따라서 연방행정부의 권한의 범위는 논의에서 제외하였다. 한편 연방법원의 권한을 본고의 대상으로 한 것은 연방대법원은 주법률에 대한 위헌심사는 물론이고, certiorari를 통하여 주의 최고법원에 대한 司法的 統制를 행한다는 점에서(따라서 연방대법원은 일반적으로 연방국가의 유지에 있어 중요한 위치를 담당하고 있다고 평가된다) 본고의 주제와 밀접한 관계가 있을 뿐만 아니라, 연방법원은 순수한 주 내부의 사법적 분규가 아닌 사항(예컨대 다른 주 시민간의 소송 등)에 관하여 사법권을 행사함으로 인하여 연방과 주의 권한의 한계점에 위치하고 있기 때문이다.

This paper explores the legal issues of embargo centering on judicial review of the trade administration. Embargo, one type of trade regulation, has a distinctive nature in that it involves an entire forestall of the importation from foreign countries. It is also distinguished from other tools of trade regulation, including anti-dumping tariffs, countervailing measure on the subsidies since it entangles with other complex considerations of diplomacy, national security, public health, and environmental policy. Therefore discretion from the trade administration, notwithstanding the president, is widely vested in that authority, who are responsible for an enforcement of the individual statute, yet can be evaded from stern control of the judiciary. Aside from the standard of review on substantial issues, judicial review relating with the embargo also entails a myriad of jurisdictional questions between the federal court and the court of international trade. In view of the U.S. role and current escalation of the trade issues in the international community, active engagement of the court as well as harmonization within the international plane need to be furthered along with the development of trade environment. For the export nations including Korea, embargo has a pounding impact on the national economy that also enhances a need for the reasonable administration of justice for the predictability and stability of the exporters.

1.The judicial system in the nations is generally considered as an important public institution to promote the liberty and social justice. The role and influence of public policy and administration can hold a considerable power in the shaping of Korean judicial system. The current literature in this field is just on legal theory, and little is known about the processes, actions and interactions of players relating with the elements of public policy studies. 2. The study’s purposes were: (a) to examine the phenomenon inherent in the public administration of Korean judicial system (b) to generate a theory on its phenotype in the national and comparative or interdisciplinary viewpoints. 3. Based on the grounded theory approach as well as hermeneutics and heuristics, the kind of tools, i.e., concepts, terms, essences as well as inter-relational understanding or themes were employed. The theories and tenets generally on the elements of public policy, as stems from Sabatier & Mooney, Walzer, Habermas & Foucault, Weber &Turner, Simons, Bourdieu and so, provided the backdrop for this study. 4. Research questions focused on the policy process and actions, interactions of players within the public policy aspect of Korean judicial system and its phenotype in terms of national and comparative or interdisciplinary viewpoints. 5. Research participants consisted of a purposive sample of 30 Korean lawyers, legal historians, law professors and civic leadership who responded with the individual in-depth interviews. They were preliminarily surveyed with the written questions leading to select major occurrences or events, and deeply investigated through the interviews at next. The data collection consisted of public documentation, record, personal writings, and texts of Korean source 6. The findings indicated that the public administration of Korean judicial system in view of public policy elements is (i) unique, but sharable (ii) inevitable, but struggled, (iii) static, but transformative (iv) general, but professional. 7. Implications for positive social change include deeper understanding of Korean judicial system in terms of public policy studies and importance of public policy on its shaping.

Based on the grounded theory approach as well as hermeneutics and heuristics, the kind of tools, i.e., concepts, terms, essences as well as inter-relational understanding or themes were employed. The theories and tenets generally on the elements of public policy, as stems from Sabatier & Mooney, Walzer, Habermas & Foucault, Weber &Turner, Simons, Bourdieu and so, provided the backdrop for this study. 4. Research questions focused on the policy process and actions, interactions of players within the public policy aspect of Korean judicial system and its phenotype in terms of national and comparative or interdisciplinary viewpoints. 5. Research participants consisted of a purposive sample of 30 Korean lawyers, legal historians, law professors and civic leadership who responded with the individual in-depth interviews. They were preliminarily surveyed with the written questions leading to select major occurrences or events, and deeply investigated through the interviews at next. The data collection consisted of public documentation, record, personal writings, and texts of Korean source 6. The findings indicated that the public administration of Korean judicial system in view of public policy elements is (i) unique, but sharable (ii) inevitable, but struggled, (iii) static, but transformative (iv) general, but professional. 7. Implications for positive social change include deeper understanding of Korean judicial system in terms of public policy studies and importance of public policy on its shaping.
