The creation of the Guiding Principles on the Criminal Law of the RSFSR of 1919 is studied taking into account extremely complicated internal and external political situation in the country at the beginning of the twentieth century. Using the methods of analysis, synthesis, as well as comparative and historical method, the author determines the significance of the Guiding Principles in the law system of the young Soviet state. Some key norms of the document are examined. In particular, the definition of criminal law is analyzed and its advantages and disadvantages are identified. It is noted that the definition of a crime was formulated too broadly, and more significant steps in criminalization of different acts were made with the adoption of the RSFSR Criminal Code of 1922. It is indicated which persons were not punished according to the Guidelines. Attention is drawn to the way in which such a method of protection as necessary defense was set forth in this act. The Guiding Principles are not without certain disadvantages: for example, the institution of complicity is not sufficiently disclosed, there is lexical redundancy in the definition of the concept «planning the offence». However, the discrepancies between the main provisions covered in the Guidelines are explainable and excusable, taking into account the historical situation at the time of their adoption. The analyzed document became the basis for Russian criminal law, and some of its provisions are still relevant.

Indonesia as a country which did not ratify UN Convention 1951 on Status of Refugees and Protocol 1967,  issued a Presidential Decree No.125/2016 on Handling Overseas Refugee in addressing the issues of  foreign nation subject who intend to seek refuge by passing through Indonesian territory, generally aiming  to seek refuge in Australia. These foreign nation subject introduced as “refugee” by media although the  subject is unrecognized by Indonesian immigration law system. Indonesian immigration law only recognize  subject as a person who enter or leave Indonesian territory by legal or illegal means. The definition of  Refugee on Presidential Decree No.125/2016 is the first definition of the subject in Indonesian legal system,  refers to both Refugee and Asylum Seekers in UN Convention 1951, which supposed to have different  handling methods. Therefore, the implementation of Presidential Decree No.125/2016 leads to different  understanding in immigration and foreign policy perspective on Refugee subject.

This article was presented as a Victoria University of Wellington Centennial Lecture during Law Festival Week in 1999. The article surveys the use of poetry in written judgments. The author suggests that judges most often quote poetry as a rhetorical device, for one of three common purposes: (a) to comment on the parties or facts; (b) to divert from the legal analysis; (c) to introduce the judgment. In addition to these rhetorical purposes, judges also resort to poetry when required to address the topic of love. In assessing whether to recognise a legal tie between parties in a relationship, love is not an express requirement. Lacking a legal definition of love, judges turn to poets.

Good faith has been defined as justice, fairness, reasonableness, decency, taking no chances, and so on. The concept of good faith has long been rooted in contract law under the jurisdiction of Civil law, although the definition of it is still debated until today. However, the view of the Common Law tradition does not recognize the concept of good faith as long as the contract is entered into with the freedom of contract and both parties abide by the terms of the contract. Given that a franchise contract involves a long-term contract and always been developed, it is impossible to define both rights and responsibilities base on express terms only. As such, the franchise contract gives the franchisor the right to exercise its discretion in executing the contract. It is in this context that the element of good faith is very important to ensure that the franchisor does not take advantage of the franchisee and that the business continues to prosper. Therefore, the objective of this article is to discuss the concept of good faith in a franchise contract. The findings show that the common law system that initially rejected the application of the concept of good faith also changed its approach and began to recognize the concept of good faith as it is very important for relational contracts such as franchise contracts.
