Copyright Piracy In Vietnam: The Impediments Of Weak Enforcement On Vietnam's Attempts To Enter The World Market, Julie Siefkas

Florida Journal of International Law

This Note examines three approaches that Vietnam may implement to successfully bring its copyright laws into conformity with international intellectual property standards. Part I introduces international copyright standards as defined by the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works (Berne Convention) and under TRIPS.

Part II reviews the independent, unilateral legislative measures enacted by Vietnam to establish copyright protection, including the Decree on Copyright Protection, the Ordinance on Copyrights, and the Vietnam Civil Code. The section will also illustrate the weaknesses of the laws and suggest measures to facilitate compliance with copyright laws.

Part III introduces the …

Pills, Patents, And Power: State Creation Of Gray Markets As A Limit On Patent Rights, Shubha Ghosh Jun 2022

Pills, Patents, And Power: State Creation Of Gray Markets As A Limit On Patent Rights, Shubha Ghosh

Florida Journal of International Law

The question, of course, is whether allowing gray markets for pharmaceuticals is effective. I address this question in this Article and conclude that while the gray market solution is appropriate in South Africa, its effectiveness, as proposed, is questionable in the United States. While ideally it would be more appropriate to address the problems directly as human rights matters, the solution of creating gray markets may be the most effective within the constraints of the current legal system. However, the gray market must be created in a suitable and rational fashion. I develop these points as follows. Part II presents …

International Intellectual Property, Access To Health Care, And Human Rights: South Africa V. United States, Winston P. Nagan Jun 2022

International Intellectual Property, Access To Health Care, And Human Rights: South Africa V. United States, Winston P. Nagan

Florida Journal of International Law

This Article examines the question of access to patented medicines in international law. It analyzes the extent to which international agreements may lawfully limit affordable versions of these medicines that may be available through parallel imports or compulsory licensing procedures. It considers the concept of intellectual property rights from a national and international perspective to determine how these rights must be sensitive to matters of national sovereignty when extraordinary, life-threatening diseases afflict societies in catastrophic ways. This Article suggests that viewing property (including intellectual property) as a human right requires that its scope be delimited and understood in the context …

To Name Or Not To Name? The Commission For Historical Clarification In Guatemala, Its Mandate, And The Decision Not To Identify Individual Perpetrators, Andrew N. Keller Jun 2022

To Name Or Not To Name? The Commission For Historical Clarification In Guatemala, Its Mandate, And The Decision Not To Identify Individual Perpetrators, Andrew N. Keller

Florida Journal of International Law

In light of the disturbing impunity in Guatemala, one wonders whether the CEH could have done more to promote justice and accountability. Specifically, should the Commission have identified the names of individual perpetrators in its report? This Article advances the argument that, despite persuasive reasoning in favor of naming names, the Commission correctly decided against doing so. General structural limitations of truth commissions and specific restrictions in the CEH’s mandate strongly militated against identifying individual perpetrators.

Although one might construe the Commission’s decision as a blow to the goal of individual accountability, an examination of the circumstances that led to …

The Central American Integration System (Sica) At The Dawn Of A New Century: Will The Central American Isthmus Finally Be Able To Achieve Economic And Political Unity?, Thomas Andrew O'Keefe

Florida Journal of International Law

The purpose of this Article is to examine the current state of the Central American Integration System or SICA (the Spanish acronym by which it is better known) through a discussion of both its achievements as well as deficiencies that, if left unattended, will cause the process to stagnate and eventually collapse. The Article begins with a short overview of the historical underpinnings for the current efforts at both political and economic integration in the region. The Article then explains how the regional economic integration process is actually functioning today. There also is a discussion of the Central American institutional …

Good Governance: The Old, The New, The Principle And The Elements, Frances N. Botchway Jun 2022

Good Governance: The Old, The New, The Principle And The Elements, Frances N. Botchway

Florida Journal of International Law

This work aims to clarify, simplify and give some coherence to the discourse. It argues that the operation of the state in national and to some extent, international, economic activity in developing countries must be through effective governing structures and processes, or what is generally referred to as “good governance.” The principal objective is to identify and delimit the central features of what constitutes good governance. The article postulates four positions. First, that it is Herculean to have a value-free, all embracing, but workable definition of good governance. Second, that the idea of good governance does not owe its genesis …


The Application Of Education Rights In The Occupied Territories, Jorene Soto Jun 2022

The Application Of Education Rights In The Occupied Territories, Jorene Soto

Florida Journal of International Law

After providing a brief historical background of the Arab-Israeli conflict, this Note will address the difficulties of the application of international law to the educational rights of Palestinians under military occupation in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. The first issue that needs to be determined is the protection of educational rights under the Fourth Geneva Convention and its applicability to the present situation. The second issue addressed is the protection of education rights under various human rights law instruments. The third issue addressed is Israel’s position on the applicability of the Fourth Geneva Convention and international human rights …
