Recent Challenges To The Protection Of Copyright In Literary Works: A Study Of Ghana And Canada, Josephine Asmah
Recent Challenges To The Protection Of Copyright In Literary Works: A Study Of Ghana And Canada, Josephine Asmah
LLM Theses
This work traces the historical development of the concept of copyright in literary works from the earliest forms of communication by human beings until the present day. By assessing the impact of implementing the recent international copyright agreements on literary works in Ghana, a developing country, and in Canada, a developed country, the work establishes that generally, the economies of developed countries are more suitable than those of developing countries to support a strengthened copyright regime. This is more so because the former have shorter transition periods in which to comply with the international copyright framework. The work also asserts …
Law On Pollution And Debris From Oil And Gas Drilling And Production Operations Offshore Nova Scotia, Boris B. De Jonge
Law On Pollution And Debris From Oil And Gas Drilling And Production Operations Offshore Nova Scotia, Boris B. De Jonge
LLM Theses
This thesis examines international and domestic law relating to pollution from offshore oil and gas operations in the Nova Scotia offshore area. The domestic regulatory regime is not integrated, but is contained in various acts. The three main acts deal respectively with ships, including mobile offshore drilling and production units (the 'Canada Shipping Act'); fisheries protection (the 'Fisheries Act'); and the industrial aspects of offshore oil and gas operations (the federal 'Canada-Nova Scotia Offshore Petroleum Resources Accord Implementation Act'; there is a corresponding provincial act which is essentially identical). These acts are administered by separate regulatory agencies. This results in …
What A Wonderful World: Multilateral Chemical Management Conventions, Liberalisation Policies And The Chemical Industry, Robin Lynne Cowling
What A Wonderful World: Multilateral Chemical Management Conventions, Liberalisation Policies And The Chemical Industry, Robin Lynne Cowling
LLM Theses
This thesis begins with an examination of the context of risk in which multilateral environmental agreements (MEAs) are being drafted and implemented. Through a discussion of the relationship between the characteristics of multinational corporations and the phenomenon of globalisation, the impetus behind globalisation practices is revealed. This is then contextualised with an examination of the contribution of the chemical industry toward the parallel globalisations of production and environmental harm. A discussion of trade and investment liberalisation instruments is then undertaken to illustrate the current hierarchy between these instruments and MEAs. This analysis reveals the present incompatibility of these instruments and …
The Supreme Court Of Canada, Parliament And The Charter: Exploring The Limits Of The Judicial Function In Criminal Law, Patricia A. Fricker
The Supreme Court Of Canada, Parliament And The Charter: Exploring The Limits Of The Judicial Function In Criminal Law, Patricia A. Fricker
LLM Theses
Two constitutional principles--constitutional supremacy and parliamentary supremacy--should not be treated as antagonistic. The task for the Supreme Court of Canada since its elevation as constitutional arbiter has been to find the balance between these two constitutional doctrines. It must do so within the limits prescribed by the judicial function. What are those limits in the context of criminal law? The definitional elements of the offence; the political and legal theory of classical liberalism; the Charter's constitutional, as opposed to statutory, character; the primacy of either crime control or due process values in judicial decision-making; the fluctuating balance in the criminal …
The Evolving Duties Of Trade Unions Toward Their Members: Defining The Duties And Determining The Standards, B. Richard Bell
The Evolving Duties Of Trade Unions Toward Their Members: Defining The Duties And Determining The Standards, B. Richard Bell
LLM Theses
This thesis examines the continuing development of a union's duty to fairly represent its members, the duty owed by a union to its members based upon negligence principles and the recent development of the duty to accommodate in the field of human rights legislation. As the federal government and seven of the ten Canadian provinces moved to codify the union duty of fair representation the lower courts saw a continuing need for judicial supervision in the area of intra-union conflict. However, the Supreme Court of Canada appears to have willingly accepted ouster of the courts' inherent jurisdiction in favour of …
Use Of Discretion In Independent Migrant Selection: A Study Of Canadian Immigration Law, Policy And Practice, Philip Lupul
Use Of Discretion In Independent Migrant Selection: A Study Of Canadian Immigration Law, Policy And Practice, Philip Lupul
LLM Theses
Canadian immigration law has traditionally relied upon broad grants of discretionary authority as a tool for immigrant application processing. Such authority has had two facets--a procedural aspect allowing for flexibility in methods and processes for handling applications, and a substantive aspect relating to actual decision making. This thesis examines such discretion in the particular context of the Independent category of migration that is provided for under the current Immigration Act and Regulations. This thesis argues that discretionary power has recently been significantly affected by two evolving trends. Hampered by fiscal constraints, the bureaucracy has sought to reduce usage of positive …
A Matter Of Balancing: The Inability To Force Treatment On All Voluntary, Treatment-Incapable Patients In Ontario, Cindy L. Blancher
A Matter Of Balancing: The Inability To Force Treatment On All Voluntary, Treatment-Incapable Patients In Ontario, Cindy L. Blancher
LLM Theses
This thesis concentrates on the question of whether or not voluntary, treatment incapable patients who have had their treatment consented to by a substitute decision-maker can be involuntarily treated. It is my opinion that under the current legislative scheme in Ontario the restraint of a voluntary, treatment incapable patient for the purposes of treatment is illegal subject to the following exceptions: (a) a guardianship order exists that contains authority to restrain and detain; or (b) a Power of Attorney for Personal Care has been executed by the now treatment incapable individual authorizing his substitute decision-maker to have him detained and …
Preventing Insider Misappropriation Of Not-For-Profit Health Care Provider Assets: A Federal Tax Law Prescription, John F. Coverdale
Preventing Insider Misappropriation Of Not-For-Profit Health Care Provider Assets: A Federal Tax Law Prescription, John F. Coverdale
Washington Law Review
Not-for-profit health care providers are converting to for-profit status on an unprecedented scale. Directors and officers have too frequently taken advantage of the conversions to misappropriate the organizations' assets. Common law remedies have proven inadequate, and many states have no specific statutory remedies. The state statutory remedies that have been enacted range from fairly comprehensive to quite inadequate. Not-for-profit health providers are generally also subject to the federal tax rules governing tax-exempt organizations. Until recently, however, the only sanction available to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) was to revoke the organization's tax-exempt status. The IRS rarely invoked this remedy both …
The Roles Of Comparative Law: Inaugural Lecture For The Dan Fenno Henderson Professorship In East Asian Legal Studies, Daniel H. Foote
The Roles Of Comparative Law: Inaugural Lecture For The Dan Fenno Henderson Professorship In East Asian Legal Studies, Daniel H. Foote
Washington Law Review
Being named to the Dan Fenno Henderson Professorship in East Asian Legal Studies is at one and the same time a proud and truly humbling moment. It is especially humbling to hold a professorship bearing the illustrious name of Dan Fenno Henderson. In the Japanese law field, Henderson is without peer. He created the field as we know it today, and his accomplishments are truly staggering.
Right Of Publicity Tarnishment And The First Amendment, Edgar Sargent
Right Of Publicity Tarnishment And The First Amendment, Edgar Sargent
Washington Law Review
This Comment proposes a new cause of action for tarnishment of the right of publicity. The claim would protect the rights holder from uses that create offensive or degrading associations and thus harm the value of the protected persona. To prevent undue constraint upon First Amendment protected speech about public figures, publicity rights protection must be carefully balanced against free speech interests. In most cases, a speaker's right to refer to a public figure will be superior to the publicity rights holder's interest in controlling the manner in which a persona is used. However, publicity rights holders should prevail when …

Professor Frank K. Upham's Law and Social Change in Postwar Japan represents a major contribution to Western understanding of the process of legal change in Japan. In four excellent case studies spanning subject matters as diverse as the treatment of minorities and industrial planning, Upham reveals a legal culture of considerable complexity, which challenges simple generalizations. From this material, Upham seeks to derive a number of central themes. Certain of these themes are insightful and solidly supported by Upham's own case studies and other materials on Japanese law. Other themes are more speculative, raising the danger that many of the …

The Interpretation Of The Remedial Provisions Of The Cisg, Evelina Wilhelmina Innocentia Visser
The Interpretation Of The Remedial Provisions Of The Cisg, Evelina Wilhelmina Innocentia Visser
LLM Theses and Essays
The drafting process of the most successful international uniform law of the last decades, the 1980 United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods (CISG) reflected that in order to become a set of "well-balanced subsidiary rules," international uniform must be drafted and implemented carefully. It is essential that an international uniform law is adapted to diverse cultures. The different needs and demands of the varied socio-economic systems and legal structures, perceptions, procedures, and cultures of the distinct legal systems of this world are a main and omnipresent consideration and must be capable of absorbing the unified law. Either …

Reproductive Rights Of Women: Construction And Reality In International And United States Law, Kimberly A. Jones
Reproductive Rights Of Women: Construction And Reality In International And United States Law, Kimberly A. Jones
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article examines the disparity between the legal recognition of women's reproductive rights and the reality of their ability to exercise these rights. It explores how international and United States laws construct reproductive rights differently, but both fail to address the cultural, economic, and social barriers that prevent women from realizing these rights. The analysis underscores the need for states to take affirmative actions to dismantle these barriers and ensure that women can fully exercise their reproductive rights.
