The Right

Insurance secrecy is a public law institution that has been introduced to the private system. The purpose of this institution is to protect constitutional guarantees such as the right to privacy, and also to protect human rights. This fact gives rise to the entity’s broad liability for breach of insurance secrecy. You can see civil liability as a contractual breach and tort liability. In addition, the entity obliged to maintain insurance secrecy that violates this obligation may be affected by criminal liability, the basis of which is found in several acts. It is also worth highlighting the role of administrative responsibility, in which a breach of the obligation of confidentiality is treated as an administrative tort. Due to the above, the essence of insurance secrecy is to provide protection under civil, criminal and administrative law.

AbstractThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the circumstances under which empowering leadership fosters creative performance. Arguments were developed for a three-way interaction of empowering leadership, problem-solving demands and creative personality in this linkage. These arguments resulted in competing hypotheses from a fit and a compensation perspective. The results from a survey of 213 employees of a Flemish large industrial organization were used. We found that less creative employees in jobs with high problem-solving demands particularly benefit from empowering leadership. This paper adds to a more complex understanding of the effectiveness of empowering leadership by highlighting the relevance of the simultaneous interplay of contextual and personal factors.

In this article, the author attempts to analyze the institution of civil liability arising from the movable property lease agreement, using the example of Russian legislation and the legislation of a number of European states. Within the framework of this study, the author also raises more general doctrinal issues related to the place of liability under a rent agreement in the system of civil liability, as well as in the system of legal liability in general. In order to determine the place and role of the institutions under consideration, the author considered various views and interpretations of the terms under study, as well as studied the individual historical aspects of the formation and development of the civil liability institution. Among other things, the main part of the study is devoted to the consideration of individual measures and cases of contractors' liability under the rent agreement. At the end of work, the researcher assessed the effectiveness and efficiency of the Russian model of legal regulation of civil liability arising from the rent agreement.

This chapter focuses on the governance ecology of China’s state-owned enterprises (SOEs). More specifically, it examines the mechanisms of state capitalism in China by analyzing the distinctive system of industrial organization in which the country’s largest SOEs were assembled and currently operate. After providing the conceptual background, the chapter charts the origins of Chinese corporate capitalism and how it is presently organized. It then considers the key components and main organizational characteristics of the national business groups and contrasts them with those in Japan and Korea. It also explores SASAC’s behavior as a controlling shareholder within the larger institutions of the party-state and how it shares the role of controlling shareholder with the Communist Party. Finally, it assesses the implications of the analysis for comparative corporate governance scholarship.
