En noviembre de 1999, ITCENIT ha publicado un informe que analiza el impacto de las nuevas tecnologías de la información y comunicaciones en la economía de la Argentina. Advierte sobre la oportunidad económica que la Argentina está desaprovechando al no estar preparada para ingresar en la Era de la Información, y del riesgo que corre de quedar notablemente retrasada con respecto a otros países. Este trabajo, resultado de tres años de reflexiones, ha sido especialmente preparado para sugerir ideas al nuevo gobierno que asumía en diciembre de 1999, e incluye una propuesta concreta con el fin de introducir en nuestra …

The Right To Know?: Delimiting Database Protection At The Juncture Of The Commerce Clause, The Intellectual Property Clause, And The First Amendment, Malla Pollack
Malla Pollack
The people of the United States have a constitutional right to know; the government has a duty not to block access to information. The First Amendment and the Intellectual Property Clause cabin the Commerce Clause. Congress cannot create a quasi-property right to exclude others from information without clearly demonstrating market failure. Sui generis protection of data bases does not meet this threashold requirement.
The New Accountant-Client Privilege Provision: A Partial Step Forward For Nonattorney Practitioners, Francine J. Lipman, James E. Williamson
The New Accountant-Client Privilege Provision: A Partial Step Forward For Nonattorney Practitioners, Francine J. Lipman, James E. Williamson
Francine J. Lipman
For years accountants have argued that nonattorney tax preparers' communications with their clients should be protected by the same privilege that applies to attorney-client communications. Accountants argue that without such privileged confidentiality, clients might be reluctant to disclose information that tax practitioners must have to properly prepare their clients' tax returns. Accountants also believe that to properly represent their clients in tax controversies, their accountant-client communications must be protected. Without such privilege, nonattorney tax practitioners are often hesitant to probe into areas that should be analyzed, because of their legitimate concerns that their accountant-client communications are not protected. On the …
Forgotten Equity: The Enforcement Of Forum Clauses, Graydon S. Staring
Forgotten Equity: The Enforcement Of Forum Clauses, Graydon S. Staring
Graydon S. Staring
When courts differ widely and sharply on which of three or four procedural courses shouold be taken to enforce a contractual right of unquestioned validity, and every such course openly strains orthodox procedural doctrine, we may suslpect they are all wrong. We can confirm that they are wrong when we recognize the right in question is not a procedural incident at all but the right to a substantive performance, bargained for by the parties, that has about it an illusory appearance of procedure and, because of its substance, does not fit comfortably within merely procedural doctrine. Such is the right …

A Non-Material Form Of Copyright: The Strange History Of Lecturer’S Copyright, Alex Steel
A Non-Material Form Of Copyright: The Strange History Of Lecturer’S Copyright, Alex Steel
Alex Steel
This article traces the history of a specific copyright in the spoken word in private lectures, a copyright that did not require the words to be reduced to material form in order to gain protection. In the early to mid 1800’s much money could be made from the giving of lectures, and private lecturers were searching for ways to protect their livelihood. The first case to successfully prevent the unauthorised reprinting of lectures was Abernethy v Hutchinson (1825); generally considered to be the case which formed the basis for the action for breach of confidence. This was a case about …

Critical Space Theory: Keeping Local Geography In American And European Environmental Law, Robert R.M. Verchick
Critical Space Theory: Keeping Local Geography In American And European Environmental Law, Robert R.M. Verchick
Robert R.M. Verchick
Recently, legal scholars have begun to explore the meaning and significance of geographic space in law within the United States and internationally, a project highlighted in a 1996 Stanford Law Review symposium. Much of this discussion draws implicitly and explicitly on critical legal theory in approaching geographic themes -- suggesting the beginning of what the author calls "Critical Space Theory." This article uses Critical Space Theory to address the legal significance of geography in relation to two environmental issues in the United States and the European Union: (1) transborder waste transportation and (2) judicial standing. Each issue raises questions of …

Domestic Violence And The Law: An Impassioned Exploration For Family Peace, Sarah M. Buel
Domestic Violence And The Law: An Impassioned Exploration For Family Peace, Sarah M. Buel
SARAH M BUEL
In thinking about the family law practitioner's response to domestic violence issues over the past few decades, it is heartening to note some progress while remaining deeply concerned that many lawyers have yet to embrace even the most basic tenets of victim safety and offender accountability. Domestic violence impacts most lawyers and judges; however, those in the field of family law are positioned to dramatically improve the lives of all parties, if they have learned how to intervene effectively. The continuing violence indicates that we must examine the larger issues: namely, the social, cultural and economic conditions that will facilitate …
