This chapter provides an overview of the state of the art of legal thought about the international organizations (IOs) as legal entities in a legal environment. IOs are legal communities in a threefold sense: they are created by law, they use law as a means of governance, and they should be governed by the rule of law. Accordingly, international law constitutes, enables, and constrains IOs. The chapter shows that legal scholarship until the 1990s was primarily concerned with the constituting and enabling function of the law (thus securing the effectiveness of IOs), while the more recent legal concern is the constraining function of the law (thus improving the accountability of IOs). In the procedural law of organizations, a tryptichon of accountability procedures has been built: transparency, participation, and access to information.

In the past three decades, the method of receiving and conveying information has shifted from paper-based, typewriter-generated, hand-edited, and printing-press-produced publications to more technology-mediated, intelligent, WYSIWYG software-generated forms. Consequently, the concept of access to information has changed to reflect this phenomenon. The new forms of access to information that have made it easier for non-disabled people have often created barriers for people with disabilities.

To those of us who read, it must be a constant source of frustration that we have no access to information which may be of use to us. For this reason those who have not the opportunity—in an enormous mass of information—to read this immaculate periodic report of the Traffic Safety Division of the Arizona Highway Department must be an eye-opener. It might even impress our Minister of Transport when she is considering decisions. For this reason Medicine, Science and the Law reproduces the periodic report with due permission, but without any humility. Pages 1–9, June 1966 issue of Arizona Safety Sad-istics. Perhaps we might be humble to see such a realistic approach. On this occasion Medicine, Science and the Law will be willing to receive comments for publication in its next number.

“Economic Corruption” is one of the most serious problems facing Lebanon, which led to an increase in the economic deficit and in the ratio of public debt. This phenomenon is due to historic, religious and favoritism reasons. This paper will address the issue of economic corruption in Lebanon based on historical facts and scientific data. This study suggests options to end economic corruption in Lebanon, which include "controlling the finances of associations and parties, adoption of the law of the right of access to information, activating the illicit enrichment law, election monitoring, adoption of the protection of whistleblowers corruption law, development of the judiciary, amendment of the central inspection law, amendment in the tax procedure code, amendment of the law of the audit bureau, strengthening financial decentralization, and the creation of e-government; in addition to the important role of youth and means of social media.

This paper provides an overview of the legislative history of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 (BCRA), known popularly as McCain-Feingold. It will also explore the challenges to the act in the courts. The paper will conclude with a review of access to campaign finance reports resulting from the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002. With a rich legislative history that spans several Congresses as well as a history of judicial interventions which have shaped the law as it stands today, it is pertinent that the American people have access to information associated with the law so as to better understand the federal election process and assess its strengths and weaknesses in advance of the 2020 elections.

Partnership and LLP Law, which is now in its eight edition, covers the essential principles of both partnership law and the law relating to limited liability partnerships. In addition to explaining established principles it explores the unresolved issues in partnership law, including fixed share partnerships and whether partners can be workers, dissolution by acceptance of repudiatory breach, abandonment and mutuality, liability for equitable wrongs, the authority of a partner winding up a partnership, and the availability of equitable or common law remedies for breaches of the partnership agreement. The new edition includes a greatly expanded analysis of limited liability partnerships signifying the growth in importance of this type of entity and the development of a distinct area of law. LLP law is still evolving and combines both corporate and partnership elements which creates legal and practical difficulties. The book considers and provides answers to these problems. It analyses for example, the question as to whether a person can be both a member and an employee of an LLP. Limited partnerships are also considered in detail in response to their recent revival as investment vehicles and recent developments on access to information and derivative actions by limited partners.

The archival law is part of administrative law. It consists of rules and principles in the respective legal system required for the organization of the archives and of their rights and duties. Archival law is also a science that deals with the archival legal norms. Archival law develops specific rules on archives, and provides legal and natural persons who are obliged to cooperate with archives and turn them over the archival records, prescribes their duties and develops professional guides of archival science, which are legally required, but also provides penalties for their violation. The archival law is a part of the legal order of a country. Therefore, its definition varies from one country to another. Nevertheless, in the EU countries there is a strong tendency for uniform solutions of some archival issues and for upgrading archival law. One of these is undoubtedly the preservation of current and archival records by both, the creators of archival records and the public archives. Equally important is the preservation of current and archival records produced in electronic form. In addition to the legal regulation, it is necessary to emphasize the importance of sanctions and the effectiveness of legal norms. The law should be indeed effective, which means that it works and is implemented in the life of society. At this point one should not overlook the fact that the law becomes stronger and firmer, when the number of those who perceive its rules as appropriate, reasonable and necessary gets bigger.
