Abstract China's climate governance is distinguished by the contrast between an abundance of policies on climate change and the lack of legally binding laws. This article argues that Chinese courts bridge this difference, which fosters a ‘rule of climate policy’ rather than a strict rule of law. The effective authority of Chinese climate policy is made possible in practice both by provisions of the Chinese Constitution and the prevailing use of legal reasoning. China's constitutional design of ‘ecological civilization’ delegates the duty and the power of managing climate change issues to the executive branch of its government. Most Chinese documents on climate governance have no binding legal force, which means, according to positive law, that they cannot serve as legal grounds for judicial decisions. Chinese judges, in deciding climate-related disputes, must combine legal provisions and non-binding materials to achieve regulatory goals. They use non-legal materials to support statutory or contractual interpretations and determine the existence or limits of rights, which alters the meaning and scope of existing legal terms and principles. This rule of climate policy is possible in the courtroom because judges justify public policy considerations with arguments of principle that are substantiated in various non-binding climate plans.

There is a tug of authority in resolving insurance disputes outside the court between the Consumer Dispute Settlement Agency (BPSK) based on Law Nomor 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection with Alternative Dispute Resolution Institutions (LAPS) based on Financial Services Authority Regulation Number 1/POJK.07/2014. This encourages the author to conduct legal research in order to determine the authority of BPSK in resolving insurance disputes as well as the legal consequences of the decision after the issuance of the Financial Services Authority Regulation Number 1/POJK.07/2014 using the statutory approach. This legal research results in the finding that BPSK is still authorized to settle insurance disputes following the issuance of the Financial Services Authority Regulation Number 1/POJK.07/2014, this is based on the provisions of the Lex superior derogat legi inferiori principle. Then there is no legal effect on the BPSK decision after the issuance of the Financial Services Authority Regulation. This is because BPSK's decision has been based on Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection, whose position is higher than the Regulation of the Financial Services Authority. So there is no need for BPSK to follow the provisions of the regulations whose hierarchy of legislation is lower than the Consumer Protection Act. Therefore BPSK's decision is "final and binding" as explained in Article 54 paragraph 3 of the Consumer Protection Act.

The sustainability of public information is an inseparable aspect of democracy, which upholds freedom and human rights. The sustainability of public information is an important aspect in fulfilling individual rights to public information. However, in practice, the public's understanding of the dispute resolution mechanism on the Sustainability of Public Information is still low. In addition, in the implementation of this Public Information Sustainability dispute, there are still obstacles that can interfere with the implementation process. That can be in the form of the applicant's lack of interest in requesting information and the applicant's lack of understanding of the administrative process in dispute implementation. Based on these problems, the purpose of this study is to know the efforts to resolve public information disputes and practice the process of dispute resolution on the sustainability of public information. The research method used is the empirical method assisted by primary and secondary legal material sources and uses qualitative techniques, namely by describing legal data first, then analyze through analysis techniques with interpretive techniques and shed descriptively in the form of a thesis. Efforts to resolve public information disputes can be carried out through two processes, namely the non-litigation process carried out at the competent Regional Information Commission and the litigation process undertaken at the State Administrative Court if the disputing public body is a State-owned public agency or a PN if the disputing public body is said. is a private public body. In practice, the process of resolving information sustainability disputes in Indonesia still has obstacles which can be in the form of misunderstandings caused by the applicant's lack of understanding of the application mechanism or the stages of the administrative process that must be passed in filing a dispute on the sustainability of public information.

In Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection and Regulation of the Minister of Trade of the Republic of Indonesia Number 6 / M-DAG / PER / 2017 concerning the Consumer Dispute Settlement Body does not impose limits on the authority of BPSK in handling and adjudicating a consumer dispute. However, in reality many times the decisions of the Consumer Dispute Settlement Body (BPSK) are submitted to the district court and stated that BPSK is not authorized to handle such disputes.

Increased importance and availability of different forms of digital assets have resulted in increased consumers’ interest to conduct transactions with this specific type of assets. Increased consumers’ presence on the markets for digital assets has become one of the major challenges that modern consumer law encounters. The main risk faced by consumers who trade with different forms of digital assets arises from their instability and volatility. For that reason, the possibility of a loss of invested means is significantly higher compared to other similar marketplaces. The main subject of this paper is a review of basic mechanisms of consumers’ protection on the markets for digital assets. The review has been based on a comparative analysis of the Serbian Law on Digital Assets and of the EU Proposal for a Regulation on Markets in Crypto-assets. Before the analysis of concrete legal provisions on consumer protection has been made, the author indicates to certain traits of digital assets and problems and risks that consumers face in this innovative and dynamic marketplace.

Purpose Within a larger mandate of reviewing the key global trends concerning consumer protection in the electronic commerce (e-commerce) literature, this study aims to study the legal framework concerning e-commerce and consumer protection in the Sultanate of Oman and to analyse the current regulations concerning e-commerce and consumer protection. Design/methodology/approach This study followed the normative legal research approach and resorted to the desk research process to facilitate content analysis of literature containing consumer protection legislation and regulatory provisions in Oman in particular and the rest of the world in general. Findings The study reveals that consumer protection initiatives in Oman are well entrenched for offline transactions, but are relatively new and limited for e-commerce. In spite of the promulgation of consumer protection laws, electronic transaction law and cybercrime law, consumer protection measures for e-commerce in Oman do not address a large number of the global concerns necessary to build consumer confidence and trust in the online environment. Research limitations/implications There is a dearth of information concerning Oman on this topic in the extant literature. The research also witnessed the lack of empirical data on the issue of consumer protection and e-commerce in Oman that offer a detailed database of consumer complaints and associated outcomes. Practical implications The mechanism of consumer protection in electronic transactions is not robust in many countries. Because of the lack of comprehensive and robust legislation, consumers remain vulnerable in the online contractual purchase process. Moving beyond the fragmented legislation, many countries are currently mulling an all-comprehensive e-commerce law, implications of this paper will help the policymakers in identifying the focus areas. Social implications Consumer protection is a burning global issue in this era of consumerism. It is important to build consumer trust, transparency and integrity of transactions to reduce the risk and uncertainties of purchase. Originality/value Consumer protection studies conducted in the context of Oman, hitherto, deal more with data protection and dispute resolution mechanisms, and less with legal provisions, regulations and consumer confidence. The study shares newer insights based on a systematic review of legal and business databases. It is the first study of its kind in the context of Oman and the Middle East in general.
