This workprovides a comprehensive analysis of the Tort Law of the People`s Republic of China. It examines the status quo of the discourse in the literature and provides specific illustrations of how general Tort principles such as causation, negligence and damages are applied in Chinese courts. Since the availability of Chinese case law is limited and many opinions lack reasoning, the volume analyses representative cases to provide a basic understanding of how Tort Law functions within the Chinese legal system.

This study conducts a brief analysis, based on the scientific foundations of some European and, more particularly, Spanish regulations, of the thorny subject concerning the privileges enjoyed by high-ranking officials, authorities and civil servants in relation to criminal proceedings. More specifically, we seek to determine the extent to which such special protection may affect the principle of equality and, going a step further, whether such an exception must be justified and protected by a democratic constitution. ; En esta contribución se analiza brevemente, a la luz de las bases científicas de algunas regulaciones europeasy, en particular, de la española, el espinoso tema de los privilegios de altos cargos, autoridades y funcionarios públicos en el ámbito del proceso penal, más en concreto se busca precisar hasta que punto dicha protección especial puede afectar al principio de igualdad y, yendo más allá, si tal excepción al mismo debe estar justificada y protegida por una constitución democrática.

自20世纪90年代起,金融及法律界学者逐渐提出到境外发达资本市场上市可以发挥其 "捆绑"作用:企业可以通过跨越本国薄弱的法律机制,受制于发达国家的法律以及监管,实现公司治理的提高。"捆绑理论起源于美国, 但随后也被运用于全球市场的其他角落。 问题关键在于本国市场与境外市场之间是否存在一个"质量差距", 因为只有在"质量差距"存在的情况下,"捆绑"的作用才有可能产生。 ; 源于"香港"英文拼写中的第一个字母H,到香港上市的中国企业被统称为H-股公司。自"青岛啤酒"于1993成功于香港上市,至今香港联交所已有169 间H-股公司。其中,2002至2006 是到港上市的高峰期. 此期间,中国资本市场混乱,难以发挥为企业融资的作用。鉴于此,中国政府鼓励国内企业到香港上市,寄予通过香港更好的治理机制,实现对本土企业治理实践的提高。 ; 当前,人们普遍认为香港上市可以顺利提高中国企业的治理实践。如若事实如此,我们有理由相信中国本土市场与香港市场之间存在明显的"质量差距"。也就是说香港市场的治理体系优于国内市场。此文以中小股东保护为出发点,于以下几个方面探讨两地之间是否存在"质量差距":信息披露,独立董事,金融中介机构的"看门人"作用,证券法的公力救济,以及公司法,证券法的私力救济。 ; In the 1990s, finance and legal scholars gradually proffered the view that cross-listing in a developed market functions as a "bonding" mechanism: a firm may improve governance practices in spite of the home country's weak legal institutions by subjecting itself to the legal and regulatory regime of the developed market. Initially developed in the context of overseas companies listed in the US, this bonding effect has been applied to other places of the global market as well. Critical to this scenario is the existence of a "quality gap" between the home and the foreign markets, which must exist for generating the bonding effect. ; Chinese companies listed in Hong Kong are known as H-share companies for the first letter of the listing locality. Since the birth of the first H-share company, Tsingtao Beer, in 1993, a total of 168 H-share companies have floated on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong. A majority of these companies were listed between 2002 and 2006. Around this period, the two domestic exchanges were highly volatile and failed to provide an efficient fund-raising device for Chinese companies. Against this backdrop, the Chinese government adopted the strategy of encouraging domestic companies list in Hong Kong, which is perceived to be a better governance regime, thereby bonding the governance practices of Chinese companies to a superior standard. ; It is current conventional wisdom that the governance practices of Chinese companies can be enhanced indeed through ...

A través del artículo se lleva a cabo un análisis jurídico del proceso de creación de identidad digital en Internet de personas físicas y jurídicas, con especial atención al uso de herramientas de la web 2.0 y la incidencia de la actividad de los usuarios en la configuración de la reputación online. Por un lado, se advierte de que la creciente protección jurídica de la identidad digital de las personas físicas está conformando un nuevo derecho a la identidad digital, esto es, a existir en Internet, y un conjunto de derechos unificados encaminados a salvaguardar el respecto a la protección de datos y demás derechos de la personalidad, bajo la denominación de derecho al olvido. Por otro lado, se demuestra que la protección legal otorgada a las personas jurídicas por el ordenamiento jurídico vigente con relación a la creación de su identidad digital y a la gestión de su reputación online está limitada prácticamente a la dimensión objetiva del derecho al honor, negándoseles otros derechos como la privacidad o la protección de datos. A través del artículo se observa y concluye que la normativa existente incide en todas las etapas de creación de identidad digital haciendo precisa, en personas tanto físicas como jurídicas así como en los propios usuarios de Internet, la adopción y desarrollo de una especial sensibilidad jurídica. ; The article conducts a legal analysis of the process of creating digital identity and managing online reputation of natural persons and legal entities, giving special attention to the web 2.0 tools and the impact of the activity of users in shaping online reputation. On the one hand, the article observes that the increasing legal protection for digital identity of individuals is creating a new Digital Identity Right, that is, to exist on the Internet, and a unified set of rights designed to safeguard the respect of data protection and other rights of personality under the name of Right to Be Forgotten. On the other hand, the article shows that the legal protection accorded to legal persons, under the law in force, in relation to the creation of digital identity and online reputation management, is limited to the objective dimension of the Right to Honor. The article notes and concludes that existing legislation affects all stages of digital identity creation, making it necessary to adopt and develop a special legal sensitivity in both natural and legal persons as well as Internet users, themselves.
