Daudi Mwita Nyamaka Mr.

Negotiating The India-Pakistan Conflict In Relation To Kashmir., Varun Vaish Sep 2011

Negotiating The India-Pakistan Conflict In Relation To Kashmir., Varun Vaish

Varun Vaish

Any academic discussion centered on a particular conflict is incomplete without first attempting to garner a better understanding of the genesis and subsequent alteration of the underlying factors that contribute to a dispute through an integrative approach. Such an approach has been termed as “Transformation Studies,” wherein an attempt is made to first study the experiences which lead to grievances and ultimately to disputes. In this approach the emergence and transformation of a dispute is analogous to studying a social process as it occurs.Only when a particular experience is perceived to be injurious, does one feel the need to attribute …

Copyright In Its Global Contextcanada's Approach To Bill C-32: India’S Lesson In 'What Not To Do'., Varun Vaish

Varun Vaish

Every once in a while, one has the luxury to benefit from the experience of another. When those experiences originate from a comparable state of affairs, one would be unwise not to learn from them. Such an opportunity presents itself before India as both Copyright Modernization Act, 2010 of Canada and the Copyright (Amendment) Bill, 2010 of India are tabled before their respective legislative houses. Through this note the author seeks to reflect upon Canada’s Bill C-32 vis-à-vis the other proposed or prevailing copyright laws of countries, in order to expediently inform the Indian position on Copyright law.

Social Contract Theory Of John Locke (1932-1704) In The Contemporary World, Daudi Mwita Nyamaka Mr. Jun 2011

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 …

International Law And Transnational Corporations: Towards A Final Summation, Varun Vaish

Varun Vaish

The regulation of transnational corporations (TNCs) by an international legal order fundamentally centred on states proves to be difficult when they exercise political influence and have the ability to generate revenue which can eclipse the economies of many countries in comparison. According to the World Investment Report 2007, as of 2006 there were 78,411 parent corporations and 777,647 affiliates worldwide.4 The scale of the concentration of economic power is illustrated by the statistics: of the world’s hundred largest economic entities, 51 are multinational companies and 49 are nation states. The Texaco Corporation functioned for years in Ecuador with annual global …


Proximate Cause In Maritime Insurance, Angelo Giampietro Avv. Mar 2011

Proximate Cause In Maritime Insurance, Angelo Giampietro Avv.

Angelo Giampietro Avv.

The proximate cause in marine insurance is the “dominant cause” of the loss. It was decided per Bingham L J in T M Noten BV v Harding that the dominant cause of the loss is to be determined by “applying the common sense of a business or seafaring man.” In determining the proximate cause of the loss, The Court recognized that it had to find the cause that was proximate in efficiency, and to do so they had to apply the test of the sentence expressed by Bingham LJ. Nevertheless, at the light of the recent decision of the Supreme …

Special Economic Zones In India: Labor Issues And Key Considerations., Varun Vaish

Varun Vaish

Michel Chossaovsky recognizes that this era of globalization, is marked by a relocation of the Industrial base of advanced countries to cheap labour locations in developing countries. The obvious requirement is that of a cheap, stable and disciplined industrial labour force in a “secure political environment”. In tune with Global adjustment requirements various measures are being adopted to promote export competitiveness by the governments in these countries. These measures attempt to fulfill the hidden agenda of structural adjustment programmes, which endorse the development of a cheap-labour export economy, and drive down world commodity prices. Post 1991 in line with the …
