Abstract:
Three representative countries (Canada, the United States and New Zealand) have adopted different models to provide defensive trademark protection for indigenous cultural elements. Under the trademark defensive protection system, provisions such as the ‘offence clause’ or ‘misleading public clause’ can be utilized to prevent others from incorporating indigenous elements into their trademarks. In New Zealand, the offence clause primarily serves to prevent trademarks from offending the Māori culture. After the US Supreme Court ruled that offensive clause (disparagement clause) was unconstitution

Abstract:
The external directors, who serve by law on the board of directors, are responsible for ensuring that, in addition to protecting the interests of stakeholders, the company will take the public interest into consideration. In this research we critically assess this system of corporate governance, and examine whether the external directors can actually succeed in looking out for the public’s interest. The research is based on in-depth interviews with external directors of leading public companies in Israel, representing different sectors. The issue at stake is both conceptual and practical: Conc

The aim of the present study on the classical Marxist European Heritage on the national question is to establish the causes for the recurrent intellectual and political inability of this tradition to conceptualise and explain the nature of the national phenomenon.

Virtue ethics is frequently considered to be a single category of ethical theory, and a rival to Kantianismand Utilitarianism. I argue that this approach is a mistake, because both Kantians and Utilitarians can, and do, have an interest in the virtues and the forrnation of character. But even if we focus on the group of ethical theorists who are most commonly called virtue theorists because they reject the guidance of both Kantianism and Utilitarianism, and derive inspiration from ancient Greek ethics, there is little unity to this group.

This thesis defends naïve realism about the essential nature of perceptual experience, that is, the experiences that subjects enjoy when they hear, see, smell, taste, and touch things. It claims that the essential natures of such experiences are intrinsically constituted and relationally determined by the perceptible properties of those worldly objects with which perceiving subjects are immediately and irreducibly acquainted. In particular, this thesis defends naïve realism against the Problem of Misleading Experience which exploits the existence of misleading experiences (viz., dreams, halluc

Gendered disinformation is an acute threat to public discourse.

Child labor is one of the oldest issues in our society and remains an ongoing problem. Over time, child labor has evolved from working in agriculture or small craft workshops to being forcibly employed in factories as a result of the Industrial Revolution. Children have become highly profitable assets due to their low wages, less tendency to strike, and ease of manipulation. Socio-economic inequalities and lack of access to education are other factors contributing to child labor. Religious and cultural beliefs can be misleading and obscure the boundaries of child labor.

Specialized classifiers, namely those dedicated to a subset of classes, are often adopted in real-world recognition systems. However, integrating such classifiers is nontrivial.

Such methods can produce misleading predictions when used to combine specialized classifiers. This work explores a novel approach.
