International Encyclopaedia of Laws: Cyber Law
Details
Description
<p class="copymedium"> The introduction of new digital information and communications technologies has given birth to a new legal domain, commonly called Information and Communication Technology Law or more fashionable - Cyber Law. </p> <p class="copymedium"> Electronic commerce has led to specific legal problems, for example with regard to evidence, liability, consumer protection or payment. The convergence between broadcasting, telecommunications and digital information technology has created a new platform for public information with all the related legal issues. </p> <p class="copymedium"> Practically every country in the world has issued specific legislation or developed case law in this area. The domain has acquired sufficient stability to fit into a common structure. A logical consequence of this evolution is the publication of an International Encyclopaedia of Cyber Law. The<i> Encyclopaedia</i> consists primarily in a series of national monographs, treating the different legal subjects related to information and communication technology on the basis of a common standard outline. The outline contains, besides a general introduction, seven main parts: </p> <ul> <li class="copymedium"> Regulation of the ICT Market; </li> <li class="copymedium"> Protection of Intellectual Property in the ICT Sector; </li> <li class="copymedium"> IICT Contracts; </li> <li class="copymedium"> Electronic Transactions; </li> <li class="copymedium"> Non-Contractual Liability; </li> <li class="copymedium"> Privacy Protection: and, </li> <li class="copymedium"> Computer-Related Crime. </li> </ul> <p class="copymedium"> Besides the national monographs, this <i>Encyclopaedia</i> also contains monographs on supranational and international cyber law issues. Examples are the monographs on European Union Cyber Law or on International and Global Telecommunications Law. The <i>Encyclopaedia</i> provides further an International Cyber Law Codex with important international texts in this field. The initial volume of the <i>Encyclopaedia</i> contains information about cyber laws in Australia, Hong Kong, Cyprus, Greece, Ireland, Japan, U.K.,Portugal, South Africa and Spain. Other countries will be incorporated as the <i>Encyclopaedia</i> matures. </p> <p> For detailed information on all volumes of the Encyclopaedia, please visit: <a href="www.IELaws.com"> www.IELaws.com </a></p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
