The traditional, bilateralist model no longer accurately describes modern international law. Despite this, we have lack a theoretical underpinning through which to understand the new international legal order. We are in need of a new paradigm. The notion of international community interest can provide this tool. Transcending the individual interests of states, it attaches instead to a shared system of values, such as the protection of human dignity and the global environment. This shift, from individual interest to community, underlies fundamental structural changes in international law. The first category of such changes relates to international law-making. Community interest-inspired obligations (e.g. to respect human rights) break with the traditional model in that they are not owed between states bilaterally. They thus institute an evolution in the nature of international legal obligations, from relative to absolute. Methods of law-making reflect this, becoming increasingly cooperative and legislative. Simultaneously, jus cogens limits the law-making power of states where it conflicts with fundamental community interests. The second category relates to the legal response to international law-breaking. The community interest in legal compliance underlies the shift from a subjective conception of 'responsibility as reparation', to an objective responsibility focused on the return to legality. Further, the community interest in the enforcement of particular rules underpins the newly differentiated regime of responsibility for serious breaches of peremptory norms, and the restructuring of the invocation of responsibility with regard to obligations erga omnes. We turn finally to international law-framing. The 'international community' provides the frame within which international law can be seen as a system within which states act, rather than merely threads of obligation and responsibility binding them in bilateral pairings. The recognition of commonality through the community interest is thus transformative, establishing a new paradigm through which we may understand international law.
Indonesia is a plural state law. This can be seen from the Indonesian national legal system which recognizes and respects the plurality of laws in society. This plural legal system cannot be separated from its historical-empirical experience, that the Indonesian national legal system as it has been known for a long time originates from various legal subsystems, namely the Western legal system, the Customary legal system, and the Islamic legal system. The emergence of a number of shari'a nuanced regional regulations is a very interesting constitutional phenomenon to study considering the content of sharia nuanced regional regulations is the values or teachings of certain religions which in this study are Islamic so that they have been considered to violate the constitutional mandate, violate human rights, discriminatory, and does not reflect tolerance. On the other hand, the birth of shari'ah nuanced regional regulations philosophically-juridically is caused by a paradigm shift that was previously centralistic to decentralized which was marked by the birth of Law Number 22 Year 1999 which was later changed to Law Number 32 Year 2004 and then last changed to Law No 9 of 2015 concerning Regional Government. The decentralization policy contained in the Act then makes people in the regions encouraged to compete in regulating matters relating to their respective regions into a regional regulation including religious affairs. The existence of sharia regulations must be examined based on the national legal system or system, so that its position in the national legal system becomes clear.
Protection of migrant workers is all the effort the protection of the interests of prospective workers / migrant workers in realizing the fulfillment of their rights in accordance with the legislation, both before, during, and after work. Protection of migrant workers organized in the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families (International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families) 1990.

In recent years, many social workers have joined the ranks of virtual or e-therapists. While this offers exciting new opportunities for social work practice, the advent of e-therapy has come with a host of challenges particular to Internet communication that may not be reconcilable with current social work regulation. This paper reviews the social work codes of ethics in both the United States and Canada, legislation governing treatment, and case law with respect to several important issues related to e-therapy. The paper begins with a discussion of jurisdictional issues and expertise to practice e-therapy. Next, it suggests that if e-therapy fits within the purview of acceptable social work practice, the establishment of therapist–patient relationships creates professional duties of care owed to patients and to the public. Four of the most critical duties in a therapeutic encounter are considered: the duty to obtain informed consent, the duty to maintain confidentiality, the duty to warn third parties of harm, and the duty to maintain professional boundaries.

The pressing need to change family law education stems from increased numbers and types of family law matters before the courts, changing legal standards, and the evolution of family law practice. The Family Law Education Reform Project, the Families Matter Report, and the IAALS Family Bar Summit recommend that traditional family law education be supplemented to reflect the importance of a holistic blend of theory and practice. This involves expanding student clinical or experiential programs, incorporating interdisciplinary studies specific to the context of family law, and enhancing continuing legal education opportunities. As one law school example, the University of Baltimore School of Law has implemented many of these recommendations for students and practitioners.
ABSTRACT This article deals with Czech legal regulation of alternative measures and their use in practice within the Czech criminal justice system. Attention is focused on procedural alternative measures, i.e. diversions in criminal proceedings, as well as on alternative punishments. The development of Czech criminal law has been strongly influenced by the conception of restorative justice, which was the base for the effort to spread the scope of alternative measures and to reduce the number of the imprisoned. But the introduction of new measures (diversions, community service, house arrest, etc.) was accompanied by some problems regarding their use in practice; some of them were connected with legal regulation, other ones were caused by incorrect use. The article identifies these problems (also through analysis of statistical data) and also describes solutions to the problems.
