The paper not only reviews the recent developments in the English court – Fortis Bank & Stemcor v Indian Overseas Bank ([2010] EWHC 84 (Comm); [2011] EWCA Civ 58; [2011] EWHC (Comm) 538), but also examines the methods adopted by the courts to interpret the UCP provisions. Meanwhile, in relation to this case, other useful methods which may effectively explain the bank’s obligations are also referred to in this paper. In addition, the paper addresses other important issues concerning the bank’s post-notice obligations which are partly ignored by the UCP and the case law, such as the condition of the returned documents. Moreover, some feasible suggestions are put forward in this paper relating to each aspect of the bank’s obligations, so as to achieve the purpose of supplementing this incomplete area under UCP600 as well as directing the market practitioners.","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"22 1","pages":"193"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80103779","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, jurists have raised a number of questions about this issue. Namely, is there a need for the acceptance of the third party in the obligations? Can the contracting parties relinquish the rights they have created for the third party by revoking the contract? What should be done if the third party refuses to accept the obligations? Or, who would have standing to sue if the undertaker refuses to fulfil the obligations? The methodology for this research is of an analytic and descriptive nature. The authors try to offer answers to the above questions drawing on other legislations and jurisprudential rules.","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"24 1","pages":"99"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83834229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It appears technology is racing out of legal control. It is a phase where a major part of society is trying to overcome with techno-virus, which has paralysed the autonomy of society. Here, people are looking towards legal system and laws for remedy. The conflict we face today is more a question of the extent to which law or government should or should not influence scientific progress and objectivity of scientific principles. This paper is an attempt to analyse the role of science technology in the development of society. This article has sought to understand whether our legal institutions effectively control technology or not. It is also an attempt to find out the solution for the gap between technology and human rights principles.","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"85 1","pages":"88"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91363541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Act specifically stipulates a period of not less than 15 years imprisonment as a prescribed minimum sentence applicable in corporate offences committed by corporate individual offenders. This has seen the demise of the exercise of discretionary powers exercisable by the judges in consideration of an appropriate sentence. It has also become associated with an increase in the prison population, due to the exclusion of non-custodial sentencing upon determination of the sentence. This contribution will investigate the current trends in sentencing of corporate individual offenders in so far as it is inclined towards imprisonment. It will also look at the suitability of non-custodial sentencing as an alternative to imprisonment.","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"208 1","pages":"11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77582650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While national legal cultures and legal jurisdictions continue to exist, legal practitioners and educators are increasingly required to know and understand the international implications of imposing national laws. At the same time, legal education and legal culture has remained seemingly unchanged in the wake of the reality of legal practice in the 21st century. This article discusses the results of a research project undertaken with the support of City University of Hong Kong. The focus of the research project is a market assessment of the required legal skills for lawyers in the 21st century. In this first article, I discuss the current state of the research findings and its implications for the skills required of 21st century lawyers and the future of legal education.","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"28 1","pages":"38"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83750124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The remuneration gap between male and female employees is currently at 25%. Between races it appears that whites and Indians on average tend to earn the highest at nearly all levels and Africans and non-whites on average tend to earn the lowest. This paper will investigate the notion of equal remuneration for the same work or work of equal value and its application in South Africa. The country’s discriminatory history and the amends made after 1994 to promote equality are set out as background. Moreover, international labour standards ratified by the country and national equality laws enacted are considered. Lastly the relevance of Mangenawill be considered.","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"27 1","pages":"390-405"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85372421","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
