Professor
Peter
Spiro
Professor Peter Spiro will present at a seminar on "Interrogating Birthright Citizenship" and meet with CCCS Members re his research interests as follows: In the United States, absolute territorial birthright citizenship has been guarded as a matter of constitutional faith in the face of assaults relating to undocumented immigration. But considered outside that politicized context it is not clear that jus soli makes sense, even from a liberal perspective. Assuming a goal of mapping citizenship status onto organic community, birth location no longer supplies a reliable proxy for life trajectories. The existing rule risks the detachment of citizenship from community, which in turn could undermine the foundations of the liberal state. The paper suggests a case for modifying birthright citizenship, but concludes that fixes are unlikely to reverse the declining salience of membership in the state. Full Details |

Another issue of note is the discourse on whether the judiciary, through "mere" procedural tools, rather than legislative action, is more effective in protecting human rights. The seminar will delve on thevarious issues that deal with the effectiveness of both the "indigenous" and "alien" legal notions in providing legal remedies to victims of human rights violations and curbing impunity.

Lynch-Wood

This view arises from evidence that firm size has a significant influence on the factors that affect the way firms respond to environmental pressur, and that regulators rarely accomodate such differences in their regulatory strategies. Mr Lynch-Wood's work has led to the development of a resource-based model of envirmonmental regulation that is responsive to firm differences. Full Details |

Assistant Professor
Filippo
Viglione
Assistant Professor in Private Comparative Law Faculty of Political Science, University of Padova, Italy Assistant Professor Filippo Viglione's teaching and research interests are in the law and theory of contracts. His current research deals with the problems of contract interpretation in a comparative perspective. The reseach is focused on the national legal practice of civil law and common law countries with regard to the determination of the content of the contract in general, and in particular analysing the role of good faith interpretation. The central objective of this research is to determine how the courts in these legal systems intervene in the contractual relationship, for example, when the contracting parties have failed to provide for a particular contingency that forms the subject matter of the dispute. In this perspective, it is important to reveal if the national courts use good faith interpretation in order to rewrite the contract, in a potential contrast with the principle of freeedom of contract and party autonomy. Assistant Professor Viglione will also direct a part of the research towards analysing other aspects of the process of contract interpretation, such as the basic principles of construction, the admissibility of extrinsic evidence and the interpretation contra proferentem. It is also interesting, in this context, to determine whether a common approach to interpreting contracts can be found in different countries. In the latter respect, the comparative approach requires to identify differences and similarities in the various interpretative techniques. Full Details |

Chalid
Lecturer Faculty of Law, University of Indonesia The research is based on water scarcity. As a public good and source of life, water scarcity is threatening life sustainablility and humanity. Access to water has to be positioned as a human right and should be protected at a constitutional level.

These two issues have brought the world into summit, initiated by the World Bank, producing the so called "Dublin Principles" where all issues about scarcity of water are formulated into a set of guidelines. This research will identify how states regulate their water and compromise all competing rights and uses of their water, especially in the World Bank's debtor countries. This research also studies public trust countries where water laws have developed for ceturies, far ealier before the World Bank's water policy took place. Full Details |

CR
Snyman
Department of Criminal and Procedural Law University of South Africa Having read a number of discussions on the defence of provocation in criminal law, I am of the opinion that the defence is necessary to accommodate situations in which a person commits a crime otherwise amounting to murder in circumstances in which, because of provocation, an ordinary person would also have lost his or her self-control. I do not agree with the position in Tasmanian law where the defence has been abolished. Neither do I agree with the view sometimes advanced in Australia that the objective ordinary person test should be abolished in favour of a purely subjective test. The objective ordinary person test should be retained, tempered only in a few respects, namely as far as the age and gender of the accused is concerned, but not his or her cultural background.

Dr

School of Law, King's College, London The statutory development of Australian defamation law: This work will examine the statutory development of the law of defamation in Australia, and contrast it with the development of English law (as explored in my recent book, The Making of the Modern Law of Defamation (2005)). One of the main themes will be the reception of Lord Campbell’s 1843 proposals for the reform of defamation in New South Wales and Western Australia. These proposals included the assimilation of libel to slander, and a new approach to qualified privilege for reports of court proceedings. Since the proposals were never enacted in England, and this has been seen by commentators as a missed opportunity, the research will analyse why the Australian legislatures took a different approach, and evaluate whether the reforms really solved the problems that they set out to deal with. A second theme will be to investigate the role played by Press interests in these reforms, and compare the effects of such influence with the clear influence of the Press on English statutory reforms. Furthermore, since several of these statutory developments show that the Australian legislatures were ahead of their British counterpart, the work will consider what light these developments cast on the relationship between the Australian colonial legislatures and their (theoretically superior) British equivalent. The research will be carried out whilst I am a research visitor at the Centre for Media and Communications Law, University of Melbourne (July & August 2005). Full Details |

Margaret
Beukes
Faculty of Law, University of South Africa Margaret will be visiting the CMCL at the invitation of Dr Andrew Kenyon, Director of the CMCL. During her stay she will present a paper, entitled "Hate speech - a South African perspective" at a staff seminar arranged by the CMCL. In the paper she will address, inter alia, the particular (South African) reasons for the restriction of the scope of freedom of expression through the exclusion of "hate speech" from constitutional protection. In order to do this, she will contextualise hate speech within its peculiar South African paradigm. She will also analyse the elements required to be present before any expression can be considered hate speech: There must be advocacy of hatred on one of the listed grounds, and the advocacy must constitute incitement to cause harm. Examples from South African case law will be used to illustrated the interpretation of hate speech in the country. Margaret is a member of the Cultural Heritage Committee of the International Law Association (ILA) and author of the title "Culture and cultural institutions" in Law of South Africa (LAWSA). (She also contributed two chapters: (chapter 14 - "The law regulating broadcasting" and Chapter 15 - "The law relating to entertainment") in Yvonne Burns Communications Law (2001).) As a natural consequence of her academic interest in culture, cultural heritage and the right to culture, she also intends to do comparative research on the concepts of culture and cultural heritage as legal constructs (whether it is at all possible to deal with these concepts as legal constructs) and the dichotomy between the retention and return/repatriation of cultural material. Since she is also involved in the teaching of Administrative Law at Unisa, she will also (time permitting) research into new developments in the field of Administrative Law in Australia. As Margaret has been a ballet and dance reviewer for Beeld (the Johannesburg-based Afrikaans newspaper) for the past 18 years, she fully intends to attend as many dance and ballet performances in Melbourne as possible.

In addition this research will also enhance comparative legal research, always in relation to the above mentioned fields of law. The project is believed to be one of major significance respectively to all the different markets, legal systems and arbitration communities involved as non similar compiled research has been conducted, especially with regards to insurance / reinsurance arbitrations, so far. Moreover, the visit and collaboration to be established upon it is aspired to act as the initiation for long term collaboration. Full Details |

Cheer
Senior Lecturer in Law University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand The purpose of Ursula's visit is to present a paper at a seminar organised by the CMCL in Melbourne and Sydney. The paper will detail some initial results of a study of the effects of defamation laws in New Zealand carried out by the writer in 2001. The focus of the study is whether New Zealand's defamation laws create a chilling effect on the media which is not justifiable in a free and democratic society. The paper will cover the following topics: material regarded by the media as risky, training in defamation law, pre-publication procedures and how they impact on alterations and deletions, whether defamation insurance is held, and the impact of regulatory bodies. The paper will also present a breakdown of claims, and will examine whether defamation claims against the media appear to be increasing, who the plaintiffs and defendants are, the context of claims, the nature of remedies sought, and outcomes. This material on actual claims will be compared to results compiled about threats received by the media. Full Details |

Ms
Karen
Yeung
Lennells Lecturer in Business Law Oxford University While the prominence of professional external communications managers ('spin doctors') in western democratic political practice has attracted considerable academic interest, relatively little scholarly energy has focused upon external communications managers engaged in other social institutions, despite the rapid expansion of this sector in Britain throughout the 1990s. Although scholars of public policy and public administration have devoted considerable attention to characterising and critiquing the diverse assortment of policy instruments or 'tools' of government, they have paid only limited attention to the ways in which public administrators have (or might) seek to harness media publicity in support of policy goals. Yet regulators and other government agencies in the UK and elsewhere are becoming increasingly 'media-friendly' in their approach, challenging traditional characterisations of the bureaucratic arm of governemt as invisible and anonymous. Yet the use of media publicity as an informal sanctioning device (in contrast to judicially imposed adverse publicity orders) by regulatory officials has largely escaped the attention of criminologists and administrative lawyers alike. This project seeks to fill this gap in our understanding of this important and increasingly prevalent practice at both a normative and empirical level. It will compare the experience of two regulatory agencies, the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (the 'ACCC') and the UK Office of Fair Trading ('OFT'), both of which are entrusted to enforce legislative provisions designed to preserve the competitive process and protect consumer interests. Its primary aim is to explore the emerging use of media publicity by regulatory agencies, focusing on its potential as a technique through which regulatory compliance may be promoted. The primary empirical data for this project has now been collected (through semi-structured interviews and content analysis of media releases and newspaper articles concerning both agencies) and the project is now entering final phase consisting of careful and systematic analysis of the collected data.

The research traces the rights from their beginnings in the civil law jurisdictions of Europe to their latest embodiments in the copyright statutes of the common law countries. Its emphasis is on the theoretical development of the rights and the ways in which the natural law doctrines, and the more recent instrumentalism, of their European past have influenced the forms that they currently take across the common law world.

McNamara
Maquarie University Lawrence McNamara will be visiting the Centre for Media & Communications Law where he will be working on a project that explores the ways libel laws mediate and regulate truth and racism when histories and historians are subjected to legal judgment. The project looks at David Irving's action against American academic Deborah Lipstadt (who had alleged that Irving was engaged in Holocaust denial, having deliberately falsified evidence to advance his racist political agenda), contrasting it with the current debates surrounding Australian history and colonial genocide, where Keith Windschuttle's "The Fabrication of Aboriginal History" (2002) has alleged that leading historians, including Henry Reynolds, have deliberately falsified evidence to advance a political agenda of 'black victimhood and white guilt'.

Mr

Hopkins
University of Southampton Nick Hopkins is a Senior Lecturer in Law at the University of Southampton, UK. His specialisation is property law and he is researching for a book, "Conscience in Modern Land Law" to be published by Hart Publishing. Recent years have seen a renaissance of interest in the use of unconscionability, for example through its reassertion as the basis of the law of trusts and of estoppel. In light of this, Nick’s research explores what constitutes unconscionable conduct when the concept is used to justify judicial intervention and when (and why) principles founded on conscience are the most appropriate basis for intervention. While visiting the Law Faculty, Nick will be focusing his research on comparisons between English and Australian developments. Full Details |

The thesis is concerned with the impact of judicial disagreement, especially dissenting judgments, upon the development of Australian constitutional law. The project involves an element of empirical work but also hopes to track substantive changes in the Court's approach to constitutional questions over the last 40 years which have been significantly influenced by minority views.

Ms
Ursula
Cheer
Canterbury University, New Zealand Ursula Cheer carried out a study of the effects of defamation laws in New Zealand in 2001. The study sought to discover whether such laws have a chilling effect on the media, to the extent that stories with a high element of public interest are suppressed or edited, with detrimental effects on freedom of expression. In the first half of 2001, confidential surveys were sent to every identifiable member of the New Zealand media. This included newspapers, television and radio broadcasters, magazines, book publishers, independent writers and journalists, information service providers and advertising agencies and public relations firms. Similar surveys were also sent to legal practitioners who are prominent defamation lawyers, both plaintiff and defendant representatives, to find out about their practices and views. Some face-to-face interviews were conducted with leading practitioners who were too busy to complete the survey. The surveys were augmented by the collection of statistical information as to the incidence of defamation statements of claim (writs) involving media defendants filed in a significant sample of High Court registries in New Zealand, for the years 1998-2001. The results of the study have now been compiled and have been written up in part. Ursula intends to complete the bulk of writing up as soon as possible with a view to publishing the results in 2004 during her valuable three week Research Fellowship at the Centre for Media and Communications Law.

Ms
Nadin
Sondermann
University of Cologne, Germany Ms Nadin Sondermann is a PhD student from the University of Cologne, Germany. In 1999 the German legislator introduced a new provision, according to which prices set below the cost level by undertakings with (relative) market power are presumed to be illegal (i.e. predatory) unless they are justified by way of an exception. This provision has been heavily criticised in academic discussions. Nadin Sondermann's dissertation takes this as the basis for an examination of the different methods of resolution of the problem of low pricing practices by undertakings with market power on a European level, in the United Kingdom and in Germany as well as in other international legislative sytems. The focus will be placed on accepted and possible justifications. Full Details |

Helene
van Lith
Erasmus University Rotterdam The objective of Hélène van Lith's stay at the Melbourne Law School is to undertake further comparative research on the common law system on international jurisdiction in civil matters. The starting point of the research is the draft convention for a ‘Worldwide Convention on Jurisdiction and Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgements in Civil and Commercial Matters’ initiated by The Hague Conference on Private International Law. This ‘Hague Jurisdiction Project’ is a new attempt to provide for clear jurisdiction rules for proper allocation of judicial powers in international litigation. Apart from the European Union and the United States, Australia, Canada, China and Japan are key players in the diplomatic negotiations of such international convention. Comparative research might help bridge the gap between common law and civil law legal systems in their jurisdictional tradition to find common grounds. Full Details |
