On Land (Wealth) Distribution: A Cultural Approach To Justice In Indonesia, Suparjo Suparjo
On Land (Wealth) Distribution: A Cultural Approach To Justice In Indonesia, Suparjo Suparjo
Indonesia Law Review
This article re-examines the Indonesian land distribution policy in light of Pancasila , the five core values of the Indonesian constitution. Furthermore, the article also analyzes social problems in Indonesia from the legal and cultural point of view. Inspired by Javanese shadow puppet plays and Pancasila values, analysis shows that that land distribution policy in Indonesia does not support the goal of the country. The policy does not adhere to Pancasila values and the cultural values adopted by the Indonesian people. Hence I will try to give a recommendation for better regulation in land distribution. Evidences will be given to …
State Administrative Legal Review On The Bill Of Retraction Law Of Corrupted Assets In Eradication Effort Of Corruption In Indonesia, Dian Puji Simatupang
State Administrative Legal Review On The Bill Of Retraction Law Of Corrupted Assets In Eradication Effort Of Corruption In Indonesia, Dian Puji Simatupang
Indonesia Law Review
Since eradicating corruption having been continously encouraged by late governments – and until now – , there would not be less important as to retracting the corrupted assets. There are many aspects to be considered in doing such action, such as manifesting the legal aspects of administrative law, and so other applied national regulations. By these regulations, such as Law No. 7 of 2006 on Ratification of United Nations Convention against Corruption, 2003 (Konvensi Perserikatan Bangsa Bangsa Anti-Korupsi, 2003), Law Number 25 of 2003 On Amendment to Law Number 15 of 2002 on Money Laundering, Act 30 of 2002 on …

La Voluntad En Los Contratos De Adhesión: Sociología Y Crítica Jurídica, Con Énfasis En El Análisis Económico Del Derecho / The Consent Theory Critique And Standard Form Contracts In Civil Law (With Special Reference To Law And Economics), Andres Palacios Lleras
Andrés Palacios Lleras
El presente artículo tiene como propósito sugerir los elementos básicos para (re)construir una doctrina diferente sobre la interpretación de los contratos de adhesión en Colombia, basada en las ideas de Josserand y en literatura contemporánea sobre análisis económico del derecho. La tesis que se argumenta sugiere que dichos contratos deben interpretarse teniendo en mente tanto las característias cognitivas de los adherentes, como el desequilirio de poder negocial que subyace su relación con los oferentes, y sugiere que las normas potestativas sólo puedan ser cambiadas a favor de la parte adherente.
The purpose of this paper is to explore the connections …
Yangge Dance: The Rhythm Of Liability For Medical Malpractice In The People's Republic Of China, Zhu Wang, Ken Oliphant
Yangge Dance: The Rhythm Of Liability For Medical Malpractice In The People's Republic Of China, Zhu Wang, Ken Oliphant
Chicago-Kent Law Review
This paper summarises the development of liability for medical malpractice in the People's Republic of China, beginning with the establishment of a formal system of administrative liability in 1987, its refinement in 2002, and the broadly contemporaneous judicial recognition of a concurrent tortious liability under general civil law. All these developments may be said to have furthered the interests of patients. The incorporation of liability for medical malpractice into the Tort Liability Law of 2009, however, arguably marks a step backwards, subordinating the interests of patients in favor of the interests of the medical community, and further reforms in the …
Electronic Contracts In Tanzania: An Appraisal Of The Legal Framework, Daudi Mwita Nyamaka Mr.
Electronic Contracts In Tanzania: An Appraisal Of The Legal Framework, Daudi Mwita Nyamaka Mr.
Daudi Mwita Nyamaka Mr.
The concern of our study was to examine the legal basis for electronic contracts in Tanzania. The major problems that were being examined are; the ascertainment of e-contract terms and the other party in the contract with the focus to consent i.e. consensus ad idem requirements and capacity to contract. With the first problem, e-commerce involves e-contracts and the business community in Tanzania enters into contractual arrangements with external world via websites or email in which case the electronic environment is not suitable in Tanzania in terms of the laws and the technology. Messages sent via internet may be garbled …

Ownership Unbundling In European Energy Market & Legal Problems Under Eu Law, Michael Diathesopoulos
Ownership Unbundling In European Energy Market & Legal Problems Under Eu Law, Michael Diathesopoulos
Michael Diathesopoulos
In this paper we will examine the issue of ownership unbundling and forced divestiture remedies imposed in a series of recent competition law cases of the energy market - examined in other papers - in relation to the possible existence of a series of legal obstacles. These energy market decisions belong to a group of antitrust cases in which a structural divestiture remedy has been imposed under the provisions of Article 9 of Regulation 1/2003. This divestiture refers to transmission networks and to generation capacity and is meant to lead to severe structural changes, which are compatible with the findings …

De La Admiración A La Recepción Crítica: El Apagado Eco De La Codificación Del Derecho Privado Europeo En América Latina, Leysser L. Leon
Leysser L. León
En este artículo se esboza el nuevo posicionamiento de los ordenamientos jurídica de América Latina frente a los proyectos de armonización de las codificaciones civiles europeas. La tesis del Autor es que de una etapa dilatada de importación normativa masiva se ha pasado (y se necesita pasar) a una recepción crítica: con el auxilio de la comparación jurídica, se debe discriminar el material legislativo extranjero, conociéndolo en su origen e informándose sobre su problemática, a fin de evitar la migración de modelos inadecuados para fructificar fuera de su contexto de producción.
Social Contract Theory Of John Locke (1932-1704) In The Contemporary World, Daudi Mwita Nyamaka Mr.
Social Contract Theory Of John Locke (1932-1704) In The Contemporary World, Daudi Mwita Nyamaka Mr.
Daudi Mwita Nyamaka Mr.
The 17th century period was marked by an attempt to erect effective safeguard against violations of natural law by governments. Law in this period was conceptualized as an instrument for the prevention of autocracy and despotism. Absolutism in Europe that was associated with governmental encroachments necessitated a strong shield of individual liberty. In this period legal theory placed the main emphasis on liberty, thus the law was to render governments capable of functioning as a guarantor of individual rights. This paper aims at examining the social contract theory of the 17th-century English philosopher, John Locke, its parameters, limitations and its …

Manipulación De Información Personal Y Derechos Fundamentales. Crítica Del Proyecto De "Ley De Protección De Datos Personales", Leysser L. Leon
Leysser L. León
Se ha retomado en el Perú el discurso en torno de la conveniencia de formalizar legislativamente el derecho de la persona a la autodeterminación informativa, i.e., la tutela frente a la manipulación de información personal.
El proyecto de ley que actualmente (mayo, 2011) se viene discutiendo en el Parlamento peruano es sometido a revisión crítica en este artículo.

Competition Law And Sector Regulation In The European Energy Market After The Third Energy Package: Hierarchy And Efficiency, Michael Diathesopoulos
Competition Law And Sector Regulation In The European Energy Market After The Third Energy Package: Hierarchy And Efficiency, Michael Diathesopoulos
Michael Diathesopoulos
The aim of this research is to provide the basic parameters for a model for the definition of the relation between the general competition and sector specific frameworks and rules regarding the regulation of the Internal Energy Market, especially after the Third Energy Package. The research considers the recent sector specific framework in relation to a series of recent competition law cases of the Energy Market where structural remedies were applied under the commitments procedure. Essential facilities doctrine and generally competition law tools do not seem to provide a suitable framework for effectively addressing the dynamic competition concept, treating the …

Civilizing American Civil Justice: International Insights, James Maxeiner, Gyooho Lee, Armin Weber
All Faculty Scholarship
In 1776, when Americans declared independence from Britain, they also declared their rights. Their declarations of rights count “open courts” as among the best means for constitutional development. Open courts should secure to every man, without regard to wealth, a just remedy for every wrong suffered, according to the law of the land, by fair and speedy procedure.
Since 1776 Americans have invested heavily in creating open courts. They have been disappointed by returns that fall “far short of perfection” (Maurice Rosenberg). They have found reform to be an “unending effort to perfect the imperfect” (Jay Tidmarsh).
That Americans have …
“Adiantamentos Sobre Lucros No Decurso Do Exercício: Algumas Reflexões” [Interim Dividends In The Course Of The Annual Accounting Period: Some Reflexions], Bruno Ferreira
Bruno Ferreira
A realização de adiantamentos sobre lucros no decurso do exercício ocupa uma posição bastante particular no esquema orgânico-societário das sociedades anónimas. Este facto, conjugado com uma maior atenção que o tema tem recebido recentemente, aconselham a uma reflexão sobre os procedimentos, limites e natureza jurídica de tais distribuições, em especial no confronto com a distribuição de lucros aos accionistas mediante deliberação em assembleia geral.
Advances on profits made in the course of the annual accounting period occupy a somewhat special position on the corporate-organizational structure of sociedades anónimas. This fact, in addition to a recent heightened focus on the matter, …

The involvement of financial creditors in informal and formal restructuring procedures and the eventual ensuing formal insolvency procedures presents significant challenges and risks. This article provides a brief introduction to the law of restructuring and insolvency in Portugal and addresses some of these challenges and risks.

Contract Law: Trends And Shifts In 2010, Dr. Yehuda Adar
Yehuda Adar Dr.
-This Article is in Hebrew- This paper presents an overview of some of the main developments in the general body of contract law in Israel during the 2009-2010 law-year and examines their possible impact on the rights of contracting parties. The author claims that these developments reflect a general pattern that characterized Israeli contract law in recent decades: On the one hand, a continuous, step-by-step progress is observed in numerous cases in which the Supreme Court introduced minor changes into existing rules or made an effort to clarify and improve the existing doctrine. Such developments are seen, for example, in …

The case involved a contract for the sale of land. The contract empowered the seller, in case of termination following a fundamental breach by the buyer, to keep certain amounts of money paid under the contract and, in addition, to demand liquidated damages for the same breach. The main issue concerned the right of the seller, who terminated the contract and regained possession of the …

Public And Private Justice: Redressing Health Care Harm In Japan, Robert B. Leflar
Public And Private Justice: Redressing Health Care Harm In Japan, Robert B. Leflar
Robert B Leflar
Japanese legal structures addressing health care-related deaths and injuries rely more on public law institutions and rules than do the common-law North American jurisdictions, where private law adjudication is predominant. This article explores four developments in 21st-century Japanese health care law. The first two are in the public law sphere: criminal prosecutions of health care personnel accused of medical errors, and a health ministry-sponsored “Model Project” to analyze medical-practice-associated deaths. The article addresses a private law innovation: health care divisions of trial courts in several metropolitan areas. Finally, the article introduces Japan’s new no-fault program for compensating birth-related obstetrical injuries. …

The Role Of Remedies In The Relational Theory Of Contract: A Preliminary Inquiry, Dr. Yehuda Adar, Dr. Moshe Gelbard
The Role Of Remedies In The Relational Theory Of Contract: A Preliminary Inquiry, Dr. Yehuda Adar, Dr. Moshe Gelbard
Yehuda Adar Dr.
One of the leading contemporary theories of contract law is the relational theory. Notwithstanding its remarkable development since the foundational works of Macaulay and Macneil it would seem reasonably fair to maintain that this body of literature has generally neglected the discussion of legal remedies. Scholarly literature pertaining to the relational theory has typically focused on extra-legal or informal devices for the regulation of long-term contractual relations, such as: consensual adjustment of primary contractual arrangements in light of changing circumstances, informal incentives for performance and cooperation, the tendency to abstain from relying on formal rights and duties, and the frequent …
