Cornell law professor Yun-Chien Chang's recent monograph, Property Law: Comparative, Empirical and Economic Analysis, published in 2023 by Cambridge University Press, covering 156 jurisdictions and 279 dimensions of property law in each jurisdiction, is the first systematic treatment of property law from a comparative perspective. It unequivocally demonstrates the unique value of comparative study in property law and stands at the vanguard of a recent empirical turn in such comparative study. Chang’s book has clearly marked an empirical turn in comparative property law, similar to trends in international law, but it should not necessarily be taken as a call for the younger generation of scholars to dive into empirical studies, unless one is well prepared in terms of both substantive legal training and empirical skills, and has secured steady research assistance that is high in quality as in quantity.
This study provides a comparative legal analysis of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Indonesia regarding the regulation of digital health technologies, particularly electronic medical records (EMR) and artificial intelligence (AI). It examines core legal dimensions including data security, patient consent, monitoring mechanisms, and data ownership. Although both countries have adopted ambitious digital health strategies, the UAE has developed a more comprehensive and integrated regulatory framework through Federal Law No. 2 of 2019 on the Use of Information and Communication Technology in Health Fields and the Personal Data Protection Law No. 45 of 2021. These instruments ensure stricter data protection, structured access control, encryption standards, and regular audit mechanisms. In contrast, Indonesia, despite the enactment of Minister of Health Regulation No. 24 of 2022 and Law No. 27 of 2022 on Personal Data Protection, still faces challenges in enforcement, interoperability, and accountability. The findings highlight the need for Indonesia to strengthen its legal and institutional infrastructure to ensure compliance, enhance data privacy, and promote patient trust in digital health systems. Drawing lessons from the UAE experience, the study proposes policy reforms aimed at aligning Indonesia’s legal framework with international standards and fostering a secure, ethical, and innovation-oriented digital health environment.
This study explores the administrative authority in monitoring the implementation of public works contracts, focusing on a comparative analysis between Syrian law and the FIDIC (International Federation of Consulting Engineers) system, with reference to Hungarian law. Public works contracts are crucial for infrastructure development and sustainable growth, necessitating stringent oversight to ensure compliance with contractual terms and specifications. The research highlights administrative authorities’ dual role in supervising and directing contract execution. It underscores the importance of legal and technical mechanisms in achieving quality, efficiency, and effectiveness in public works projects.
In this study, we review the constitutional process of 2010–2011 in Hungary, which preceded the adoption of the Fundamental Law, focusing on how issues related to agriculture appeared in the work of various professional and political bodies during the constitution-making process. In this context, the study examines the relationship between agricultural law and constitutional law by analysing the process that led to the adoption of the Fundamental Law of Hungary. In our analysis, we primarily apply historical, teleological, and systematic methods of legal interpretation. The study is timely, as no work has yet examined this type of relationship between constitutional law and agricultural law in connection with the constitution-making process.
