  • Crimes Related to Cross-border Tourism - Provisions of Material Law

    Worldwide, the tourism and travel sector (business, visits) is one of the largest industries, the evolution being an increasing one, estimating, over 10 years ago, that approx. 3% of the active population in the world works in this field. Europe is ranked number one in the world as a tourist destination. The European countries most requested by foreign tourists are, in a random enumeration, Great Britain, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Holland, Poland. The importance of the safety and health of tourists is essential, the countries adopting regulations that encourage the free movement of people for recreational purposes, in principle they have similarities between them. Among these regulations are, of course, those in criminal matters. As a result of the recognition of the right to free movement and of the economic development and the standard of living, the Romanian citizens became more and more active as tourists, choosing to travel for various purposes in almost all the states of the world. In this context, they must adapt their behavior to the laws of those states in which they move, but at the same time they must know the possible dangers that could affect their life, liberty, health or property, as well as the procedures to turn to if necessary. Romanian tourists, abroad, can become both victims of criminal acts and perpetrators of others, sometimes unintentionally or out of ignorance of certain specific local regulations. This is the reason why we considered useful the short presentation and analysis of the most common situations of a criminal nature in which the Romanian tourist could be found abroad.

  • The Practice of States Regarding the Legal Status of Individual as a Subject of Internal Public Law

    Within the international society, several categories of entities act, all having the status of actors of international relations. However, not all of these are considered subjects of public international law relations. The necessity to determine the quality of the subject of law and to identify them is legitimized by the need to establish which of these entities have the capacity to acquire international rights and obligations, which of them participate in the elaboration of the norms of international law and in the development of the reports governed by the legal norms.

  • Domain Names' Legal Dispute Impact: Value & Dispute's Cost

    There is no doubt that domain names have founded new world of digital business equal to geographical traditional business world. And in such a borderless world (cyberspace), everyone has aimed to gain his own share. However, the features of the conflict over the contested rights have begun to appear publicly between the main stakeholders of cyberspace. Despite this, the conflict took legal shape, but in fact this legal conflict was hiding severe financial fighting. And when it is informed there is financial conflict between main stakeholders, it means there is a profit, loss, and costs come over this conflict. As a result, every legal conflict has its own financial equivalent if this legal conflict could be coded into financial values.

  • The Trial of the Group of 'Rugul Aprins' ('the Burning Bush')
  • ?Revista Teologica', the Journal of the Metropolitan Church of Moldova (1883-1887) - a Cultural Ecclesial Periodical or Simply a Press Organ of the Church?

    At the end of the nineteenth century, in Iasi, an open conflict arises between the Metropolitan of Moldova and one of the professors of the Faculty of Law. As the time goes by, the conflict escalates, and supporters are added to both parties, both among the laity and the clergy. For this reason, the conflict enters in a sphere of politicization, the problem becoming a canonical-legal one. In order to win as many supporters as possible, both sides published one diary, „Desteptarea” «Awakening» and „Revista Teologica” «The theological Review», through which they wanted to show their supremacy and prove the guilt of the other side. „Revista Teologica” appears out of an apologetic necessity, but due to the freedom offered by the Metropolitan Naniescu, to the editors Dragomir Demetrescu and Constantin Erbiceanu, the ecclesial newspaper acquires a cultural-philosophical character.

  • The Arrest and the Investigation of the Group 'Rugul Aprins' ('the Burning Bush')
  • Domain Names & (Trips): the Aspect of Protections Roots

    Though the main goal of (TRIPS) agreement was established to organize Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights, some new rights related to intellectual property have arisen away from the scope of this agreement. One of these issues was domain names. Initially, it was argued that there is no relation between domain names and trips agreement due to the fact that domain names are relatively new issue comparing to establishment of TRIPS agreement. This might be right to a point with taking into consideration the unclear nature of domain names per se. However, revealing the real nature of domain names might bollix things up.

  • Reasons Concerning the Restriction of Some Rights in Compliance With the Provisions of art. 53 of the Romanian Constitution

    An essential dimension of the rule of law is the consecration and guarantee of fundamental rights and freedoms, ensuring the optimal conditions for applying them. State authorities have a negative obligation to refrain from any arbitrary or excessive interference that may limit or condition the exercise of constitutional rights. Any restriction on applying fundamental rights and freedoms by measures ordered by the state authorities must be exceptional and must comply with the conditions imposed by the Constitution but also by the relevant international legal instruments. Based on these premises, this study analyzes the constitutional institution of restricting the exercise of certain rights. It also looks into the main particularities of the principle of proportionality applied when restricting the exercise of certain rights, with references to the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court and the European Court of Human Rights.

  • International Regulations Applicable to Minor Criminals

    International regulations in the field of juvenile justice have gradually been introduced ever since the foundation of international organizations dealing with juvenile justice issues. The fight against juvenile delinquency has been the subject of regional and global research, including several states of the international association. In this context the 2nd UN Congress on Crime Prevention and Treatment of Offenders was held, at which the Report "New forms of juvenile delinquency" was presented. In this report, for the first time, materials from several states were used, which met all principles and criteria. A comparative research had been carried out in almost all regions of the globe, whose findings were disseminated on that occasion. The proposals of the general rapporteur are recent and consist in creating special jurisdictions for young adults to assign cases to young adults in juvenile courts (from 18 to 21 years old), to divide the powers of the ordinary courts of law and the courts for juveniles, taking into account the seriousness of the offense, the degree of maturity of the offender, the decision of the court to refer the case to a particular court, the choice of the court by the offenders themselves. The entrustment of the offender to the common law court can only be favorable if addressing the treatment applied by the administrative bodies dealing with minors.

  • International Drug Regulations

    The unprecedented proliferation of antisocial phenomena in the sphere of organized crime is a source of insecurity for life social life and, equally, a real aggression against the rule of law. In contemporary society, terrorism, illicit drug trafficking and trafficking of human beings, armament, ammunition and radioactive substances are the main forms of manifestation of organized crime with unprecedented cross-border implications.
