An Ineffective Institutional Investors Law In Indonesia? Why Bother, Luther Lie, Yetty Komalasari Dewi
An Ineffective Institutional Investors Law In Indonesia? Why Bother, Luther Lie, Yetty Komalasari Dewi
Indonesia Law Review
Corporate governance failures are one of the major factors that have crippled the Indonesian economy through financial crises. In response, the OECD has prescribed Principles II and III of the G20/OECD Principles of Corporate Governance to ensure the rights and equitable treatment of all shareholders and the acknowledged role of institutional investors in improving corporate governance. Institutional investors play a significant role as corporate monitors in protecting the public investors’ money and improving corporate financial performance. They are therefore acknowledged as the policies of economic crises, creators of firm values, and drivers of economic development. However, as this paper explains, …
Establishing A Legitimate Indonesia’S Government Electronic Surveillance Regulation: A Comparison With The U.S. Legal Practices, Citra Yuda Nur Fatihah
Establishing A Legitimate Indonesia’S Government Electronic Surveillance Regulation: A Comparison With The U.S. Legal Practices, Citra Yuda Nur Fatihah
Indonesia Law Review
Cybersecurity and privacy have now become a matter of increasing concern for citizens, the private sector, and the Indonesian government. The government is currently struggling to combat cyberattacks and data breaches. Indonesia is, in fact, in the early stages of developing a national cybersecurity strategy. The legal framework for cybersecurity in Indonesia is still weak. The one and only legal basis for regulating cybersecurity, privacy, and security, in Indonesia so far is the Electronic Information and Transactions Law No. 11/2008 and its revised version Law No.19/2016. Furthermore, the government through the Indonesian Ministry of Communication and Information has just issued …
Regulating Data Exclusivity Of Ride-Hailing Service In Indonesian Competition Law, Annisa Rahma Diasti
Regulating Data Exclusivity Of Ride-Hailing Service In Indonesian Competition Law, Annisa Rahma Diasti
Indonesia Law Review
The digital ride-hailing service platforms have advanced significantly due to technological development. It resulted in lower consumer costs and better-quality service. Thus, consumers opted for such platforms more than the conventional transportation, resulting in their exponential growth over the years such as Gojek and Grab in Indonesia. Their strong market position was achieved quickly, facilitated by innovation advantages such as indirect network effects and algorithm-based analysis of users’ past data. Ultimately, data has become a barrier for potential competitors to entering the market. Simultaneously, the incumbents or the dominant market holders likely to use a technology-based strategy by keeping access …
Legal Introspection Towards The Development Of Right To Privacy As Fundamental Right In India, Payal Thaorey
Legal Introspection Towards The Development Of Right To Privacy As Fundamental Right In India, Payal Thaorey
Indonesia Law Review
Privacy of the individual is an essential aspect of dignity. The ability of the individual to protect a zone of privacy enables the realization of the full value of life and liberty. Liberty has a broader meaning of which privacy is a subset. All liberties may not be exercised in privacy. Yet others can be fulfilled only within a private space. Privacy enables the individual to retain the autonomy of the body and mind. The autonomy of the individual is the ability to make decisions on vital matters of concern to life. The journey of right to privacy has been …

Corporate Wealth Over Public Health? Assessing The Resilience Of Developing Countries' Covid-19 Responses Against Investment Claims And The Implications For Future Public Health Crises, Tim Hagemann
Pace International Law Review
In the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, states around the world swiftly enacted a multitude of far-reaching emergency responses to contain the viruses’ spread and to cope with the economic repercussions of the ensuing crisis. However, these measures detrimentally impacted the operating conditions of many businesses or, at the least, decreased their profitability. As this inevitably affected foreign investments, investors could be tempted to invoke “Investor State Dispute Settlement” (“ISDS”) clauses in International Investment Agreements (IIAs) to initiate proceedings before arbitral tribunals and seek compensation for loss of profit caused by states’ Covid-19 responses. Due to the specific circumstances in …
Overhaul Of The Sdt Provisions In The Wto: Separating The Eligible From The Ineligible, Md. Rizwanul Islam
Overhaul Of The Sdt Provisions In The Wto: Separating The Eligible From The Ineligible, Md. Rizwanul Islam
Pace International Law Review
The special and differential treatment (“SDT”) provisions have been a recurring feature in the agreements of the World Trade Organization (“WTO”) treaties. However, most analysts would probably agree that the many SDT provisions have been more aspirational than operational. Hence, there is little surprise that even a selective review of the WTO jurisprudence would demonstrate that the SDT provisions have, in most cases, not done enough for their intended beneficiaries. This paper will analyze the limitations of the SDT provisions with reference to the relevant WTO jurisprudence. It will seek to explore two potential avenues of endeavoring to make the …
Eksistensi Perlindungan Paten Atas Vaksin Covid-19, Adzhani Tharifah, Agus Sardjono
Eksistensi Perlindungan Paten Atas Vaksin Covid-19, Adzhani Tharifah, Agus Sardjono
Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan
The Covid-19 vaccine is expected to be a solution to return to normal life. However, the need for vaccines that are global in nature raises several questions in the community, especially regarding the existence of patent protection. For this reason, this paper will answer these questions by discussing the patentability of the Covid-19 vaccine as well as how to implement patent protection in the midst of a pandemic and public concerns about limited access to vaccines. The research method used in the writing of this thesis is normative juridical with a qualitative approach where the data comes from literature studies …
Keberlakuan Klausula Security Exceptions Dalam Perjanjian Trade-Related Aspects Of Intellectual Property Rights (Trips) Di Masa Pandemi Covid-19, Daniel Nicholas Putra, Yetty Komalasari Dewi Ykd
Keberlakuan Klausula Security Exceptions Dalam Perjanjian Trade-Related Aspects Of Intellectual Property Rights (Trips) Di Masa Pandemi Covid-19, Daniel Nicholas Putra, Yetty Komalasari Dewi Ykd
Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan
WTO commitments, particularly related to intellectual property rights in the TRIPS Agreement, could potentially hinder efforts to increase access to medicines and vaccines during the Covid-19 pandemic. In time of emergency, these commitments can be overridden using the WTO security exceptions clause. This article compares the WTO security exceptions to general exceptions in Article XX of the GATT 1994 and non-precluded measures in the Argentina-US BIT, India-Germany BIT, and India-Mauritius BIT, and analyses how the Covid-19 pandemic can be a valid reason to waive the obligations under the TRIPS Agreement using the security exceptions clause. In particular, this article discusses …

Perempuan Pekerja Migran Non-Reguler: Konflik Hukum Dalam Pengaturan Perdagangan Orang Dan Penyelundupan Orang, Sriwiyanti Eddyono
Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan
This paper analyzes the extent to which Indonesian law regulates the position and protection of irregular women migrant workers and the implication of the arrangement of law for irregular women migrant workers who experience human trafficking and people smuggling. This paper follows up on field findings on human trafficking in the Kalimantan border which was carried out in 2018-2019. This paper finds that there are complications in the regulation on laws and regulations, related to the regulation of Irregular Migrant Workers. Even though the law which is based on international conventions explicitly regulates Non-Regular Migrant Workers (Migrant Workers Convention 1990) …
Amicus Curiae Observations By Public International Law & Policy Group, Milena Sterio, Michael P. Scharf, Paul R. Williams
Amicus Curiae Observations By Public International Law & Policy Group, Milena Sterio, Michael P. Scharf, Paul R. Williams
Law Faculty Briefs and Court Documents
The amicus brief argues that in a case where the defendant alleges a ground excluding criminal responsibility (an affirmative defense), such as mental illness or duress, the defendant has an evidentiary burden to produce some evidence to support his/her claim of mental illness or duress, but that the prosecution retains the legal burden of proof to establish the defendant's responsibility beyond reasonable doubt.
“This ruling will have repercussions for future cases where the defendant asserts a mental illness or duress affirmative defense. Depending on how the ICC decides, future defendants will have to meet a specific evidentiary (or legal) burden …
Framework For Enhanced Applicability Of The Egyptian Public Procurement Law To International Administrative Construction Contracts, Amr Abu Helw
Theses and Dissertations
Local governments and public authorities conclude contracts for the purpose of acquisition of goods, delivery of services and construction of public facilities like bridges, infrastructures and public buildings. A public contract is an agreement to perform particular tasks financed by government funds to the benefit of the whole community. Private entities and corporations are subject to stricter standards in their dealings with the government than in private transactions. Conversely, the government must deal fairly and equitably with those who it contracted with to achieve successful implementation of the projects. On October 3, 2018, a new Egyptian public procurement law, namely, …

Does The Lack Of Binding Precedent In International Arbitration Affect Transparency In Arbitral Proceedings?, Emily F. Ariz
Does The Lack Of Binding Precedent In International Arbitration Affect Transparency In Arbitral Proceedings?, Emily F. Ariz
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
This note explores how the lack of binding precedent in both international commercial and investment arbitration affects transparency in arbitral proceedings. As arbitration increases in popularity, its deficiencies have become more apparent. The lack of binding precedent in arbitration is convenient in some ways, but problematic as it leaves arbitrators an immense amount of discretion when deciding cases. With many decisions unpublished to maintain confidentiality and those decisions that are published sometimes lack reasoning to support the award, transparency in arbitral proceedings is practically nonexistent. In recent years, there is a trend toward more transparency in certain types of arbitral …
Antonio Caballero: Conflicting U.S. Anti-Terrorism Law And U.S. International Bankruptcy Law, Jordan M. Zornes
Antonio Caballero: Conflicting U.S. Anti-Terrorism Law And U.S. International Bankruptcy Law, Jordan M. Zornes
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
Antonio Caballero sought retribution for his father’s kidnap and murder in the way Congress has made it possible: the American Court System. Caballero obtained a default monetary judgment against Colombian guerrilla forces, but as expected in collecting against a terrorist organization, it was an uphill battle. When finding attachable assets, Caballero must act fast, but in the present case, an international bankruptcy proceeding sought to thwart his legitimate efforts to satisfy his judgment. The question is: should Caballero win in “race to the courthouse” fashion, or does the international bankruptcy stay lead to an orderly distribution of assets? This note …
Voter Id: Combating Voter Fraud Or Disenfranchising? A Comprehensive Analysis Of Voter Id Laws, Native American Disenfranchisement, And Their Intersection, Will Hyland
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
This note discusses the contentious issue of voter ID laws and their ability to disproportionately affect various racial and ethnic groups, with specific attention paid to such laws’ effects on Native Americans. Since the 2000 election catastrophe and subsequent changes to our election system, voter ID laws have become a hot-button issue. Many states have enacted voter ID laws in the years since, some of which have resulted in restrictive voting requirements that may result in disproportionately discriminatory voter disenfranchisement. This note willa first give a general overview of the complicated and convoluted recent development voter ID laws, a history …
Falling Through The Cracks Of Education: A Comparative Analysis Of Canada’S And The United States’ Use Of Standardized Testing Within The Realm Of Public Education, Micaela Baldner
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
The education system is foundational to society. Public education is based on the concept of equal educational opportunities for all. Although the purpose of standardized testing is the elimination of bias to prevent certain segments of society’s students from receiving unfair academic advantages, there is little empirical verification that suggests that standardized testing actually achieves its intended purpose. In fact, the evidence indicates that standardized testing negatively impacts low-income, marginalized, and English-learning students, as achievement gaps for these groups have remained the same or have even grown with the increased use of such tests. This article will discuss the intended …

Fighting Against Black Money By Offering Amnesty For Economic Development In Bangladesh: A Stigma Can Never Be A Beauty Spot, S M. Solaiman
Fighting Against Black Money By Offering Amnesty For Economic Development In Bangladesh: A Stigma Can Never Be A Beauty Spot, S M. Solaiman
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
Black money is a global concern. However, black money has disproportionately affected Bangladesh. To combat the proliferation of black money in the country, successive governments of Bangladesh have offered amnesties to black money holders (BMHs) in contravention of the national Constitution, legislation, and international conventions. Nonetheless, responses to such incentives have been notably poor, mainly because the wrongdoers do not fear the superficial threat of law enforcement. This article examines the BMHs’ responses to amnesties so far and explains the substantial harm caused by such discriminatory favors, including increases in corruption, the price of real estate, money laundering, deposits by …
Legal Education Reform In Africa: Time To Revisit The Two-Tier Legal Education System, Okechukwu Oko
Legal Education Reform In Africa: Time To Revisit The Two-Tier Legal Education System, Okechukwu Oko
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
The two-tier legal education system has become increasingly ineffective by virtue of the evolution of changes in legal practice and Africa’s unique conditions and circumstances. The problem is rooted in the fact that some African countries adopted the two-tier legal education system on the assumption that what worked in Britain offered a prescription for success in Africa. However, the two-tier legal education system has been ineffective in Africa because the infrastructure—pupilage, apprenticeship, continuing legal education—that complements and anneals it is not widely available in Africa. Where these elements exist, they tend to be frail and unreliable. Africa’s urgent challenge is …

Russia’S Constitutional Dictatorship: A Brief History, Cindy Skach
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
Why is the word impeachment so terrible? After all, if the Congress passed such a motion it would have no legal force. A popularly elected president could not be removed from power by the Congress, especially this Congress, which had long ago lost the people’s trust.1

Biennial Conference: The Social Practice of Human Rights
This roundtable describes and reflects upon the Corporate Liability and Sustainable Peace (CLASP) Lab, a “social lab” convened to advance corporate accountability in post-conflict and transitional justice settings around the world. Launched in February 2021, the CLASP Lab is a virtual forum in three languages, bringing together more than 40 lawyers and community activists from 25 countries in Latin America, Africa and the Middle East to share experiences and devise strategies for holding corporations accountable for human rights violations, as part of processes of transitional justice.
From The Golden Gate To London: Bridging The Gap Between Data Privacy And The Right Of Publicity, Kristin Kuraishi
From The Golden Gate To London: Bridging The Gap Between Data Privacy And The Right Of Publicity, Kristin Kuraishi
Brooklyn Journal of International Law
Currently, there is no global standard or recognition for the right of publicity. Even within the United States, the recognition, scope, and protections vary by state. As the world becomes increasingly reliant on social media for news, information, communication, and recommendations, micro-influencers and non-celebrities require a way to control their developed and curated name, image, and likeness from unauthorized commercial uses by others. Advertising is occurring more frequently online, and brands recognize the power that micro-influencers have on commerce. Some countries, like the United Kingdom, do not recognize the right of publicity, potentially leaving many individuals without recourse for the …
An Exclusive Property Model For The Common Heritage Of Mankind: A Multilateral Regime For Natural Resources In Outer Space, Yun Zhao, Xiaodao Li
An Exclusive Property Model For The Common Heritage Of Mankind: A Multilateral Regime For Natural Resources In Outer Space, Yun Zhao, Xiaodao Li
Brooklyn Journal of International Law
The concept of the Common Heritage of Mankind (CHM) remains uncertain and controversial. This article starts with an analysis of the legal status of the CHM to identify the legal subjects who can exercise rights to the CHM and what types of rights they have. It is argued that an exclusive property model is the one successfully implemented in the law of sea regime., i.e., the CHM is defined as an exclusive property of mankind. Mankind, as a separate entity, can have ownership over the CHM, while other entities can only exercise usufruct to the CHM. This article moves further …
Section 230 And The Problem Of Social Cost, Stanley M. Besen, Philip L. Verveer
Section 230 And The Problem Of Social Cost, Stanley M. Besen, Philip L. Verveer
Journal of Law and Policy
This Article employs, with certain modifications, the framework developed in Ronald Coase’s classic article, “The Problem of Social Cost,” to analyze the current debate over Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. This provision absolves interactive computer services, also known as platforms, from liability when they disseminate materials that cause “harm” to third parties, “harm” that can take the form of compensable damage of a sort found in ordinary tort cases but also can include broader injuries to social order and cohesion in the form of such things as hate speech and misinformation. The Article begins by pointing out that, …
Remedies For Government Breach: Lessons From The United States And A Zone Of Appealable Remedies For Southeast Asia, Benjamin D. Black
Remedies For Government Breach: Lessons From The United States And A Zone Of Appealable Remedies For Southeast Asia, Benjamin D. Black
Brooklyn Law Review
Though international investment treaties may supplant domestic contract law in cross-border government contracts, their limited use in Southeast Asia informs the continued importance of clear remedies for a government breach of contract under domestic law. As investment from China’s Belt and Road Initiative continues to flow into the region, private parties require clear rules and remedies when a government breaches a contract. This note argues that the lack of clear and codified public contract law in Southeast Asia presents a substantial risk to private contractors and that the extreme variance in public contract law is detrimental to both parties involved. …
Gulf Of Guinea And Maritime (In)Security: Musings On Some Implications Of Applicable Legal Instruments, Edwin E. Egede
Gulf Of Guinea And Maritime (In)Security: Musings On Some Implications Of Applicable Legal Instruments, Edwin E. Egede
Brooklyn Journal of International Law
The Gulf of Guinea (GoG) is an enormous and diverse region consisting of approximately 6,000 km of coastline extending from Senegal to Angola. It is a maritime area of strategic importance because it is resource-rich with hydrocarbons, fish and other resources. Also, it is important as a vital maritime transit hub. Unlike certain other shipping lanes that have been identified as chokepoints, the GoG, because of its width, is not susceptible to blockades and major shipping accidents. Previously the maritime (in)security in the GoG had not received the same high-profile attention from the international community as the situation in the …
