The size of an action can be named as defaming the reputation of others is still unclear because many factors must be studied. In the case of defamation or defamation that is protected, the protection of others for the other person's point of view is protected and the agreed name in the eyes of others.

The argument in this piece, namely that the Peraturan Presiden (Presidential Decree) No. 125/ 2016 is unlikely to be effective, has been borne out by the action of fishermen from Aceh who in 2020 landed 99 Rohingya refugees after the government of Indonesia refused to assist them.

Climate Change Action And Adaptation In Tokyo, Yuichiro Tsuji Prof.

Washington Journal of Environmental Law & Policy

This paper reviews an adaptation plan for the Tokyo Metropolitan Area.

Nuclear power plants were closed, and some are still under safety review. Newly built thermal power plants will increase CO2 emissions, and the battle among the ministries hinders effective adaptation planning.

In 2012, the central government announced three basic approaches: risk management, comprehensive and general planning, and cooperating with local governments. However, the central government’s tactics still fall behind other countries’, and local …

Overlapping Copyright And Trademark Protection In The United States: More Protection And More Fair Use?, Jane Ginsburg, Irene Calboli 2020 Texas A&M University School of Law

Overlapping Copyright And Trademark Protection In The United States: More Protection And More Fair Use?, Jane Ginsburg, Irene Calboli

Faculty Scholarship

This chapter addresses the phenomenon of overlapping rights under US law and complements Chapter 25 authored by Professors Derclay and Ng-Loy on the overlap of trademark, copyright, and design protection under several other Common Law and Civil Law jurisdictions. Because the United States does not provide sui generis protection for industrial design, but instead protects design through trademark law (notably by protecting trade dress) and design patents, this chapter focuses on the overlap between trademark and copyright protection. The Lalique bottles created for Nina Ricci perfumes, for example, may enjoy both trademark and copyright protection in the United States. Similarly, …

Freedom Of Speech And The Role Of Constitutional Courts: The Cases Of Indonesia And South Korea, M. Lutfi Chakim

Indonesia Law Review

Freedom of speech is a constitutional right that must be protected in a democratic society. However, there is an alarming problem in many countries where governments limit freedom of speech by targeting people espousing views contrary to those of the government. Many free speech cases handled by the Constitutional Courts of Indonesia and Korea demonstrate a gradual decline in the quality of democracy there. This article aims to assess the extent to which the Constitutional Courts’ role and responsibilities contribute to the protection of freedom of speech. Through its decisions, the Constitutional Courts in those two countries have contributed to …
