“…In the preceding paragraphs, we have reminded of the problem of the functionality concerning the methodological tools, dealing with the complexity that characterizes various legal phenomena involving administrative issues and law. The debate on methodology suffers from these issues, and it is not surprising that we can use in our comparative inquiries, a "sliding scale of methods," as Vernon Palmer highlights (Palmer, 2004). Undoubtedly, the functional approach carries out a sort of methodological paradigm, i.e., both in private and constitutional or administrative law.…”

“…The methods of comparative law have developed over time and comparatists are always in search of something new (Chodosh, 1999). This is also justified by the fact that there are different categories of people who make use of comparative law: scholars or academic comparatists, legislative or reform comparatists and law-applying comparatists (Palmer, 2004).…”

What are the forms of comparison in administrative law? Which impact do methodological approaches, both theoretical and practical, on comparative research in administrative law? This article proposes some reflexions on these questions, also considering the historical origins of comparison in administrative law. Unlike private and constitutional law, administrative law is a young, comparative legal discipline, and this is one of the main reasons because the interest in comparison in administrative law has been neglected until the beginning of the 1990s of last century. Global issues-such as migrations, international terrorism, wars, environmental changes or recent economic crises-require a rethinking of comparative analysis from a pluri-methodological (and multidisciplinary) point of view. In the second part of the article, I will try to analyze the use of comparative law methodology for administrative law research.

“…Since Malaysia has yet to enact laws on mandatory reporting of domestic violence, this study also employs comparative benchmarking with three selected jurisdictions, namely, the Australian Northern Territory, China, and the United States. Comparative benchmarking of the foreign legal systems is essential to understand the socio-cultural background of the law and its evolution (Palmer, 2004). The Australian Northern Territory was chosen because it is a common law country where its law is persuasive in the Malaysian courts should there be lacunae in the Malaysian law, under the Civil Law Act 1956.…”

Domestic violence is a worldwide phenomenon that cuts across different cultural and social backgrounds. In Malaysia, the government and NGOs have made many efforts to curb domestic violence. For instance, the Domestic Violence Act 1994 (DVA) supports victims in protection and investigation. Nevertheless, many victims often refuse to lodge a police report on domestic violence. Hence, this article aims to explore the viability of the mandatory reporting system for domestic violence cases in Malaysia. This study employs a doctrinal approach and a comparative study with selected jurisdictions. This study examines statutory provisions, case laws and other literature. For primary data collection, an interview with respondents from the Royal Malaysian Police (RMP), healthcare, and social welfare departments was conducted. This study highlights the relevant features and effectiveness of the mandatory reporting systems in other jurisdictions through comparative analysis. This study concludes that the systems applicable in other jurisdictions can be used and adopted as a guideline in Malaysia.

Inteligencia artificial, noticias y medios de comunicación: Una aproximación jurídica desde la perspectiva de la propiedad intelectual

La aplicación de la inteligencia artificial en el ámbito del periodismo, que ya se venía aplicando desde al menos una década atrás, se ha revelado como una tecnología disruptiva a partir de la popularización de sistemas abiertos de generación de textos e imágenes mediante preguntas o prompts. Ello ha planteado, a su vez, interrogantes jurídicos relacionados con la gestión de los derechos de los autores y la propiedad intelectual. En este artículo analizamos las diversas corrientes que proponen soluciones a la hora de aplicar las leyes de derechos de autor o propiedad intelectual a las obras creadas con el auxilio de sistemas de inteligencia artificial. En concreto, analizaremos la vía de la Unión Europea (con notorias excepciones, como la irlandesa), que mantiene una concepción basada en la autoría personal y propone regular el impacto de la inteligencia artificial mediante un sistema de riesgos, que podría extenderse a los derechos fundamentales; la vía de los países de Common law, que se decantan por una interpretación flexible del concepto de autoría, y admitir que algunos productos creados con inteligencia artificial podrían ser creativos, pero carecer de autor; y, finalmente, la vía híbrida de China, un país muy poderoso desde el punto de vista económico que modula interesadamente los conceptos de creatividad y de originalidad, e intenta conjugar los de propiedad y autoría. Finalmente, proponemos algunas conclusiones, basadas en el concepto de transferencia de autoría y en el cada vez más preponderante peso de las personas jurídicas, es decir, de la industria de medios (y por supuesto de los gigantes tecnológicos que están detrás de los sistemas de inteligencia artificial), en detrimento de los derechos e intereses de los periodistas.
