In that match, a hand was used to steer a ball which led to a goal being scored against Ireland in favour of France. That is something which could have happened in any other big soccer event. It is something which was once referred to as ‘The Hand of God’ by Diego Maradona, whereby England was knocked out of the World Cup in 1986.2 With all this happening in a field of soccer, many supporters and fans are involved in different forms of sport betting – in particular soccer. Further, soccer is prone to wrong on field decisions. Wrong decisions often lead to certain results which then influence the outcome of a bet. Eventually some of those wrong decisions are reversed, but such reversal is not implemented for gambling purposes either because it was way after the fact; or ignorance to develop rules and regulations is playing its part. Should football associations be liable to gamblers who lost their fortunes?","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"20 1","pages":"69-81"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83364858","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}

In fact, the entire South Asia has been experiencing the social, economic, and environmental effects of fossil fuel dependence including energy crisis, dramatic fluctuations in oil price, polluted atmosphere and finally the documented consequences of climate change. The climate concern has propelled renewable energy technologies into the mainstream to a greater extent than ever before, due to their ability to provide an alternative energy path. This paper contends that climate change is not merely an environmental issue but a social and human right issue of equity between generations. This paper critically looks at how far the concept of intergenerational equity has been made part of international climate law and policy. This paper discusses how dissemination of solar energy has the potential to advance intergenerational equity and mitigate the climate change affects in South Asia.","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"10 1","pages":"20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82058201","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 paper focuses on the foreseeable risk of online behavioural advertising (OBA) by way of cookies which is likely to infringe the online casino gambling players’ online right to privacy. The author argues that online casino gambling players are consumers whose rights to privacy must be protected by the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa Act 108 of 1996, the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act 25 of 2002, the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008 and the Protection of Personal Information Bill 9 of 2009 (the ‘PPI’).

Acknowledging the PPI as a welcome piece of a bill, the paper finally brings the regulatory consideration of OBA by way of cookies.","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"77 1","pages":"53-68"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84961302","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}

Business rescue is a procedure that facilitates the rehabilitation of a financially distressed company. The business rescue regime is debtor-friendly and replaced the judicial management which was creditor-friendly and which proved to have been inadequate and ineffective in rescuing companies experiencing financial difficulties. The case of Swart v Beagles Run Investments 25 (Pty) Ltd is significant as it was the first case dealing with the business rescue provisions. The court had to consider the requirements for commencing business rescue and looked to the judicial management provisions for assistance. The study focuses on the decision of the court and its reliance on judicial management despite the two regimes having different emphasis in terms of the interests of the stakeholders and the requirements for commencing the business rescue procedure as set out in the Companies Act.","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"33 1","pages":"82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87934220","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}

In several cases, the position of socioeconomically vulnerable tenants had to be considered. On the one hand, Section 26 of the 1996 Constitution of the Republic of South Africa provides that the state must afford access to adequate housing. On the other hand, landlords should be protected as rental housing forms a large portion of the South African housing market. To illustrate the two sides of the coin, two cases are discussed: the first case illustrates that unscrupulous landlords may, in respect of the common law duties of a landlord, be able to hide behind the constitutional duties of the state. The second case illustrates that the right of access to adequate housing should be incorporated into the relationship between a landlord and tenant. The concern is that if a landlord’s right to dispose of his property as he wishes is continuously eroded by a tenant’s right to access to adequate housing, the sustainability of the rental market will be affected.","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"1 1","pages":"329-340"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82325151","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}

They have, to a greater extent, affected the international trade regulation and foreign investment.

The research seeks to demonstrates, firstly, the globalisation and liberalisation of economy have increased the economic dependence through international trade and direct foreign investment. In addition, the economic liberalisation embodied in the WTO has substantial impact upon the investment regulation in Indonesia.

The nature of, and relationship between, these actions is traditionally explained on the basis of competing fictions and theories, in particular, the personification theory and the procedural theory, which lead to widely different results in the enforcement of maritime claims. In this respect, many Commonwealth jurisdictions have departed from English law. It is argued that the admiralty jurisdiction and law of Namibia is the same as English law as of 1890; and, in drafting new legislation to repeal and replace the law of 1890, the author contends that the legislation should reflect clear policy objectives and that the competing and unreliable fictions and theories should not serve as a basis for legislative reform. The draft legislation is then subjected to detailed analysis to determine that the policy objectives (serving the interests of both national and international litigants), are achieved.","PeriodicalId":39023,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Private Law","volume":"19 1","pages":"418"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82924464","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}
