Despite the current developments in creation of state security, the question of affording energy security is of paramount importance worldwide. Hence, all countries try to adopt myriads of laws and regulations aimed at energy security. Energy security relates to the degree of economic welfare attached to the rise or fall in either the price or availability of energy. The Islamic Republic of Iran, on the one hand is located in a strategic center of producing and exporting energy (oil and gas) known as “ellipse of energy.” On the other hand, it is situated in the transit way of energy to large consuming markets such as South and East of Asia and Europe. Thus, Iran is currently considered as an effective player in providing energy security in the world. In this article, the authors seek to analyze the strategic policies and priorities stipulated in the oil and gas-related regulations of Iran in terms of energy security.
尽管目前在建立国家安全方面取得了进展,但提供能源安全的问题在世界范围内具有至关重要的意义。因此,各国都试图通过无数旨在能源安全的法律法规。能源安全与能源价格或可获得性的涨跌所带来的经济福利程度有关。一方面,伊朗伊斯兰共和国位于生产和出口能源(石油和天然气)的战略中心,被称为“能源椭圆”。另一方面,它位于向南亚、东亚和欧洲等大型消费市场输送能源的必经之路。因此,伊朗目前被认为是提供世界能源安全的有效参与者。在本文中,作者试图从能源安全的角度分析伊朗石油和天然气相关法规中规定的战略政策和优先事项。

The US-Korea FTA, in its initial days of negotiation saw severe protests by public and political turmoil in Seoul. After crossing several procedural hoops and political hurdles in parliaments of both countries it became effective in 2012, though it was signed in 2007. At that time, it was considered by the US a ‘model agreement’ which could open opportunities for the US exporters in the Korean market. However, only couple of years later, the Trump administration called this FTA a ‘horrible’ deal that has ‘destroyed’ America. Thus, the Trump administration wanted to scrap the FTA. After considering the political implications of such action, the US government decided to re-negotiate the FTA so that the US concerns are addressed. In a short period of negotiation, both sides agreed to the revised terms of the FTA which has become effective from January 1, 2019. This paper analyses outcomes of the revised US-Korea FTA, 2018 from the US perspective and evaluate if all concerns of the US are met.
在美韩自由贸易协定谈判的最初几天,首尔出现了公众和政治动荡的强烈抗议。在两国议会跨越了几个程序障碍和政治障碍后,该协议于2012年生效,尽管该协议是在2007年签署的。当时,美国认为这是可以为美国出口商打开韩国市场机会的“示范协定”。然而,仅仅几年后,特朗普政府就称这个自由贸易协定是一个“摧毁”美国的“可怕”协议。因此,特朗普政府想要废除自由贸易协定。考虑到此举的政治影响,美国政府决定重新谈判自由贸易协定,以解决美国的担忧。在短暂的谈判中,双方就修改后的自贸协定条款达成一致,自2019年1月1日起生效。本文从美国的角度分析2018年美韩自贸协定修订的结果,并评估美国的所有关切是否得到满足。

Climate friendly technologies contribute to tackling global climate crisis and the dynamic transfer of these technologies is important to achieve universal climate actions. The UNFCCC, and its recent Paris Agreement, have introduced international assistance to promote climate related-technology transfer. They call for collaborative actions from both technology supplier and demander sides in order to enable environments for a meaningful and effective technology transfer. According to the UNFCCC, the international technology assistance is unlikely to work in a desired way with the absence of indigenous enabling environments. Therefore, it is crucial to identify, assess and overcome potential barriers potentially confronted by host countries in their acquisition of climate technologies, which helps prepare these countries for climate resilience economy and sustainable development. This paper attempts to provide a deep and comprehensive analysis on enabling policy/law environments in host countries and uses Asian countries as examples in most occasions.
气候友好型技术有助于应对全球气候危机,这些技术的动态转让对于实现全球气候行动至关重要。《联合国气候变化框架公约》及其最近达成的《巴黎协定》引入了促进气候相关技术转让的国际援助。它们要求技术供应方和需求方采取合作行动,以便为有意义和有效的技术转让创造环境。根据《联合国气候变化框架公约》,在缺乏本土有利环境的情况下,国际技术援助不太可能以理想的方式发挥作用。因此,识别、评估和克服东道国在获取气候技术时可能面临的潜在障碍至关重要,这有助于这些国家为气候适应型经济和可持续发展做好准备。本文试图对东道国的有利政策/法律环境进行深入而全面的分析,并在大多数情况下以亚洲国家为例。

Kazakhstan is one of the few countries worldwide endowed with a wealth of diverse natural resources. However, the country has yet to fully exploit these resources, for a variety of reasons, including high levels of corruption, ambiguous laws that cause confusion to the judiciary and consumers. The aim of this paper is to explore the exploitation of natural resource in the country from an international legal perspective. The article demonstrates how corruption hinders the exploitation of natural resources in Kazakhstan. It also describes how the current law seeks to address the issue of natural resource exploitation, noting its ambiguities. The paper concludes by highlighting the provisions made in the UN Declaration concerning Rights to Exploit Natural Resources, and makes recommendations concerning how Kazakhstan’s government can promote the rights of citizens to enjoy access to the land and natural resources.
哈萨克斯坦是世界上少数几个拥有丰富多样自然资源的国家之一。然而,由于各种原因,该国尚未充分利用这些资源,包括严重的腐败,模棱两可的法律,给司法机构和消费者带来困惑。本文旨在从国际法律的角度探讨我国自然资源的开发利用问题。这篇文章展示了腐败如何阻碍哈萨克斯坦自然资源的开发。它还描述了现行法律如何设法解决自然资源开采问题,指出其含糊不清之处。文章最后强调了联合国《自然资源开发权宣言》的规定,并就哈萨克斯坦政府如何促进公民享有土地和自然资源的权利提出建议。

The Spratly Islands dispute is an ongoing territorial dispute between China, Taiwan, Malaysia, the Philippines, Vietnam and Brunei, concerning territorial sovereignty over the Spratly Islands. This conflicting territorial claim between these coastal parties is raising tensions in Asia, so the settlement of this dispute is of key importance for a peaceful atmosphere in the area. The dispute is also significant in respect of being an international geo-strategic, economic, political and legal matter. After a 1988 armed conflict between Vietnamese and Chinese forces, the claimants have looked for approaches to solve the conflict peacefully through different informal endeavors, but due to the complexity of the dispute there are a number of barriers to reaching a permanent settlement. This study puts forward some potential approaches for resolving the dispute, considering its complex nature, by evaluating the six parties’ competing claims and analyzing the legal soundness of their claims.
斯普拉特利群岛争端是中国、台湾、马来西亚、菲律宾、越南和文莱之间持续存在的领土争端,涉及斯普拉特利岛的领土主权。这些沿海各方之间相互冲突的领土主张加剧了亚洲的紧张局势,因此解决这一争端对该地区的和平气氛至关重要。就国际地缘战略、经济、政治和法律问题而言,这场争端也意义重大。1988年越南和中国军队发生武装冲突后,索赔人一直在寻找通过不同的非正式努力和平解决冲突的方法,但由于争端的复杂性,达成永久解决方案存在许多障碍。考虑到纠纷的复杂性,本研究通过评估六方的竞合索赔并分析其索赔的法律合理性,提出了解决纠纷的一些潜在方法。

Law reacts to the progression of scientific technology in the end. Though conservative, changes are beginning to take place due to Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI is automating conventional legal works, creating a new industry namely Legal-Tech. This paper investigates the characteristics and flow of legal-AI and computational law while focusing on the applicability of AI to international law. Mainly, the paper reviews three critical areas: dispute resolution, trial prediction, and machine translation, respectively. International law has different characteristics than the domestic law applied in each country. Unlike domestic law, international law has not been aggregated from a pandect, and it is a still daunting task to draw any meaningful insights for further analysis due mainly to limited data (i.e., trial cases and precedents). Nevertheless, AI is already penetrating the legal ecology system, and international law would eventually accept the influx of such changes exhibiting greater force.
法律最终会对科学技术的进步作出反应。尽管保守,但由于人工智能(AI),变化开始发生。人工智能正在使传统的法律工作自动化,创造了一个新的行业,即法律技术。本文研究了法律人工智能和计算法的特点和流程,同时重点研究了人工智能在国际法中的适用性。本文主要回顾了三个关键领域:争议解决、审判预测和机器翻译。国际法与各国适用的国内法有不同的特点。与国内法不同的是,国际法并不是从一个大范围内汇总而来的,主要由于数据有限(即审判案件和判例),要得出任何有意义的见解进行进一步分析仍然是一项艰巨的任务。尽管如此,人工智能已经渗透到法律生态系统中,国际法最终会接受这种变化的涌入,表现出更大的力量。

The WTO Disciplines and Trade in Products Powered by Artificial Intelligence: Old Wine and New Wine-skin? WTO规则与人工智能驱动的产品贸易:旧酒与新酒皮?
IF 0.2 Q4 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2019-03-31 DOI: 10.14330/JEAIL.2019.12.1.02
Lei Zhang, K. K. Shang
As goods and services powered by AI continue to proliferate, scholarly opinion seems to consider that current WTO law is insufficient to regulate trade in AI-powered products. The following reasons can help explain this perceived insufficiency of the WTO law: (a) AI-powered products are difficult to categorise within the perceived goods/services dichotomy under WTO law, thus causing uncertainties as to the applicable legal regime; and (b) the WTO law has yet to respond to the need for national governments to strike a balance between trade and controversial trade practices regarding AI-powered products. This paper argues that while current WTO law is far from perfect, it does partly regulate trade in AI-powered products. The following observations substantiate the partial regulation of trade in AI-powered products by the WTO law: (a) AI-powered products cannot escape existing WTO disciplines on trade in goods and trade in services, by virtue of either the involvement of AI or the perceived goods/services dichotomy; and (b) efforts to balance trade/non-trade interests associated with trade in AI-powered products are allowed under the GATT/GATS’ ‘public morals’ and security exceptions.
随着人工智能驱动的商品和服务不断激增,学术界似乎认为,现行世贸组织法律不足以规范人工智能驱动产品的贸易。以下原因有助于解释世贸组织法律的这种不足:(a)根据世贸组织法律,人工智能驱动的产品很难在感知商品/服务的二分法中进行分类,从而导致适用法律制度的不确定性;以及(b)世贸组织法律尚未对各国政府在人工智能产品的贸易和有争议的贸易做法之间取得平衡的必要性作出回应。本文认为,虽然目前世贸组织的法律还远远不够完善,但它确实在一定程度上规范了人工智能产品的贸易。以下意见证实了世贸组织法律对人工智能产品贸易的部分管制:(a)人工智能产品不能逃脱世贸组织关于货物贸易和服务贸易的现有纪律,这要么是由于人工智能的参与,要么是由于感知到的货物/服务二分法;以及(b)根据GATT/GATS的“公共道德”和安全例外,允许努力平衡与人工智能产品贸易相关的贸易/非贸易利益。

Two Bites at the Same Apple? ‘Derivative’ ISDS Proceedings in the Revised Korea-US FTA 一个苹果咬两口?修订后的韩美自由贸易协定中的“衍生”ISDS程序

The 2018 amendment of the KORUS has made an important stride in the investment chapter of the agreement. In particular, the amendment introduced new provisions to regulate multiple, subsequent or parallel ISDS proceedings involving the same governmental measures. The new provisions, however, arguably contain inherent limitations. They will be able to address only some of the multiple, subsequent or parallel proceedings. They then leave open a possibility where essentially the same investor raises a series of ISDS proceedings against essentially the same measures by an advance planning on the scope of ‘measures’ and/or form of ‘control.’ This means that the new provisions will not be able to fully prevent multiple, subsequent or parallel proceedings in the same context or circumstances from taking place, as was originally intended by the drafters. More detailed wordings and elaborations would have helped to achieve the objective. Future Joint Committee discussions or additional amendments should consider such clarification or elaboration.
KORUS 2018年的修正案在该协议的投资章节中迈出了重要一步。特别是,修正案引入了新的条款,以规范涉及相同政府措施的多个、后续或并行ISDS程序。然而,可以说,新条款包含固有的局限性。他们将只能处理多个、后续或并行程序中的一些程序。然后,他们通过对“措施”的范围和/或“控制”的形式进行预先规划,让基本上相同的投资者对基本上相同措施提起一系列ISDS诉讼这意味着,新的规定将无法完全阻止在同一背景或情况下进行多个、后续或平行的程序,正如起草者最初打算的那样。更详细的措辞和阐述将有助于实现这一目标。联合委员会今后的讨论或补充修正案应考虑作出这种澄清或阐述。

P. Sun, Law.
In the early days of the UN, human rights was one of the most pressing issues. After the UN Commission on Human Rights was established, the international community began to draft the UDHR. By exploring UN archives, this paper finds that during that process, Pengchun Chang (P. C. Chang), the Chinese representative, drew heavily on his view that human dignity was the raison d’etre of human rights, and as a consequence recognition of the importance of human dignity was a key element in the UDHR eventually adopted. I conclude that Chang was skilled in his advocacy of the recognition of human dignity as he persuaded people to reach a consensus on human rights standards, providing a common standard for all peoples and all nations. This paper will mainly ask: What was the role of human dignity in P. C. Chang’s idea on human rights? What role can we say human dignity played? How did the UDHR treat the issue of human dignity?
在联合国成立之初,人权是最紧迫的问题之一。联合国人权委员会成立后,国际社会开始起草《世界人权宣言》。通过对联合国档案的研究,本文发现,在这一过程中,中国代表张鹏春(p.c. Chang)在很大程度上强调了他的观点,即人的尊严是人权存在的理由,因此,承认人的尊严的重要性是最终通过的《世界人权宣言》的一个关键要素。我的结论是,张成泽善于倡导承认人的尊严,他说服人们就人权标准达成共识,为所有人民和所有国家提供了一个共同的标准。本文主要探讨的问题是:人的尊严在张柏昌的人权思想中扮演了怎样的角色?我们能说人类尊严扮演了什么角色?《世界人权宣言》如何对待人的尊严问题?
