>>ABSTRACT: The first chapter of Asian Data Privacy Laws opens with
>>illustrations from across Asia of where laws protecting data
>>privacy have made a difference to individual lives. The main
>>focus of the book is those specialised laws which systematically
>>regulate the use of information about people, covering either or
>>both of a country?s public sector or most of its private sector.
>>Fourteen of twenty six jurisdictions in Asia now have such laws,
>>from over 100 countries globally with such laws. ?Asia,? for the
>>purposes of this book, comprises the three sub-regions of South
>>Asia, South-East Asia and North-East Asia. Other laws regulating
>>data privacy are also considered, including constitutional,
>>criminal and civil law protections. All twenty six Asian
>>jurisdictions are covered in this book.
>>
>>When considering data privacy protection in Asia, it is necessary
>>to remember ?we?re not in Brussels anymore.? Whereas European
>>data protection law is based on a few key legal instruments, and
>>there are European institutions that give them life, in Asia
>>there are no equivalent binding treaties, or equivalent pan-Asian
>>(or even sub-regional) institutions. A study of data privacy
>>protection in Asia must be a ?bottom up? study, whereas the
>>European approach can properly be ?top down?. It is not only
>>national laws that must be given priority in a study of privacy
>>in Asian countries, but also the situation regarding democracy
>>and the rule of law in each country, which can overwhelm other
>>considerations. In contrast, when considering data privacy laws
>>in Europe (either within the EU countries or the broader Council
>>of Europe countries) it is reasonable to assume both the
>>existence of national democratic institutions and the rule of law.
>>
>>Comparative studies of national data privacy laws and their
>>administration, or of the underlying principles of such laws and
>>what constitutes effective administration of such laws, are still
>>relatively uncommon, except for the region of the EU. However, a
>>survey of existing comparative works on a global canvas provides
>>a number of hypotheses about data privacy protections which a
>>book such as this may help to test.
>>
>>The book is structured into three Parts: Part I ? Asia and
>>international data privacy standards (chapters 1?3); Part II ?
>>National data privacy laws in Asia (chapters 4?16); and Part III
>>? Regional comparisons, standards, and future developments
>>(chapters 17?20).
>>
>>This introductory chapter concludes with brief discussions of the
>>relationships between fundamental rights and ?Asian values?; of
>>the implications of democracy for data privacy in a
>>half-democratic Asia; and of conflicting interests in
>>surveillance (public and private sector) and in ?free flow? of
>>personal data.

>>ABSTRACT: This paper explores how one group of organisations,
>>legal information institutes (LIIs) can use shared resources to
>>assist other global and regional groupings of organisations
>>involved in data privacy to achieve their objectives. Bodies
>>established by legislation to protect privacy (DPAs, PEAs etc),
>>now in nearly 100 countries, wish to be able to better access and
>>compare decisions on similar issues, data privacy legislation,
>>and commentary on same. Civil society bodies and academics want
>>effective access to the same material.
>>
>>The World Legal Information Institute (WorldLII) provides free
>>access, via cooperation between seventeen LIIs, to a considerable
>>amount of this information, sometimes as distinct databases, but
>>just as often buried in very large generic databases of case law,
>>legislation or scholarship. The challenge in building the
>>International Privacy Law Library is to pre-select material
>>potentially relevant to privacy issues to create a high value
>>searchable global collection, but to do so on a low and
>>sustainable budget.
>>
>>The resulting International Privacy Law Library contains over
>>15,000 documents. It is a combination of two main elements: (i)
>>pre-selected databases, some maintained by active provision of
>>data by DPAs/PEAs; and (ii) a set of ?virtual? databases (one
>>each for case law, legislation, scholarship etc.) drawn from all
>>other content found on the LIIs, which, once they are built, are
>>self-maintaining (updated daily) and expand as relevant new
>>content is added to any collaborating LII. The paper explains the
>>method used to build ?virtual? databases, the content of the
>>Library, and its usage.

>>ABSTRACT: Legality ? the ?spirit or way of thinking
>>characteristic of the legal profession? or the ?quality of being
>>legal or in conformity with the law? ? is a condition with which
>>international lawyers might be expected to exhibit relative
>>comfort. Not so. Far from naming common ground upon which
>>international lawyers routinely assemble, legality marks a site
>>of intense and unresolved conflict. It is a condition that
>>international lawyers aspire to secure, and perennially worry
>>about failing to bring about. This chapter demonstrates how
>>international law?s fraught sense of legality is crafted and
>>experienced by attention to a highly controversial judicial
>>ruling ? that of the International Court of Justice (ICJ), in
>>July 1966, in the South West Africa Cases. It writes legality as
>>an incident of experimental practice that entails making
>>?fictional? a politics of norms and normalcy. It does so drawing
>>upon the experience of ?fiction? with which Michel Foucault
>>experimented in his later work.

>>
>>ABSTRACT: In a country undergoing political transition, cultural
>>heritage can assume a significant role in resurrecting and
>>preserving features from a political past that may inform and
>>shape a nation?s emerging cultural identity. This article
>>examines the role of cultural heritage as an agent of
>>transformation in the "new" democratic South Africa. It
>>considers the evolution of South Africa?s national cultural
>>heritage protection framework and its relationship to the
>>nation?s negotiated transition and transformation to democracy.
>>By reference to four sites of historical and heritage
>>significance, all with a powerful association to South Africa?s
>>colonial and racist past, the article analyses their enduring,
>>revised or potential protection status and the extent to which
>>the (re)designation of these sites is defensible or sustainable
>>under South Africa?s contemporary national heritage legislation
>>and the values central to South Africa?s ?transformative?
>>constitution: (i) Jan Van Riebeeck?s indigenous wild almond tree
>>hedge in the Kirstenbosch Botanic Gardens, Cape Town, the Dutch
>>colonisers? barrier against co-existence with indigenous
>>communities and considered a first execution of apartheid, (ii)
>>the Voortrekker Monument - ?the foundation for (Southern
>>Africa?s) white civilization? - reclaimed by Afrikaner interests
>>to ensure its adaptation and survival in a non-racial, democratic
>>South Africa; (iii) Museum van de Caab, developed, following
>>archaeological excavation of the site, to depict the impact of
>>slavery and apartheid on generations of farmworkers whose access
>>to land ownership and usage has been restored; and (iv)
>>Constitutional Hill, site of the Constitutional Court, a
>>?physical manifestation? of the integration of South Africa?s
>>history of oppression and resistance and the principles of human
>>rights and constitutionalism, the foundations on which a
>>post-apartheid South Africa would be built.

>>preserving features from a political past that may inform and
>>shape a nation?s emerging cultural identity. This article
>>examines the role of cultural heritage as an agent of
>>transformation in the "new" democratic South Africa. It
>>considers the evolution of South Africa?s national cultural
>>heritage protection framework and its relationship to the
>>nation?s negotiated transition and transformation to democracy.
>>By reference to four sites of historical and heritage
>>significance, all with a powerful association to South Africa?s
>>colonial and racist past, the article analyses their enduring,
>>revised or potential protection status and the extent to which
>>the (re)designation of these sites is defensible or sustainable
>>under South Africa?s contemporary national heritage legislation
>>and the values central to South Africa?s ?transformative?
>>constitution: (i) Jan Van Riebeeck?s indigenous wild almond tree
>>hedge in the Kirstenbosch Botanic Gardens, Cape Town, the Dutch
>>colonisers? barrier against co-existence with indigenous
>>communities and considered a first execution of apartheid, (ii)
>>the Voortrekker Monument - ?the foundation for (Southern
>>Africa?s) white civilization? - reclaimed by Afrikaner interests
>>to ensure its adaptation and survival in a non-racial, democratic
>>South Africa; (iii) Museum van de Caab, developed, following
>>archaeological excavation of the site, to depict the impact of
>>slavery and apartheid on generations of farmworkers whose access
>>to land ownership and usage has been restored; and (iv)
>>Constitutional Hill, site of the Constitutional Court, a
>>?physical manifestation? of the integration of South Africa?s
>>history of oppression and resistance and the principles of human
>>rights and constitutionalism, the foundations on which a
>>post-apartheid South Africa would be built.
