The book deals with data protection issues from practical viewpoints. 40% of the content focus on the Malaysian Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) 2010 progress, whilst 60% of the content focus on leading comparative practical guidance from Europe. Part of the PDPA provisions is mirrored from European approaches and practices. The approach of this book is straightforward, handy and readable and is supplemented by practical applications, illustrations, tables and diagrams. Practical examples highlighted in this book range from cloud computing, radio frequency identification technology, social media networks and information security to basic related aspects of data protection issues covering strategic leadership, management, governance and audit in businesses, organisations and local authorities. Recommended best practices have been outlined for practical guidance accompanied with future challenges and opportunities for Malaysia and ASEAN. The book is equally suitable for academics, practitioners, governmental officials and regulators dealing with data protection within their sector-specific legislation.

Economic globalization is transforming practically every service sector. The legal industry that has long remained insulated too has not remained untouched by the effects of globalization. The outsourcing of legal services in the past one decade has transformed the legal landscape. Legal outsourcing to India is becoming increasingly popular among U.S. and European law firms and corporations. This book broadly seeks to discuss three main topics surrounding legal process outsourcing (LPO): its emerging trends, the legal challenges it raises and the hitherto unrecognized potential it holds. Firstly, this book clarifies concepts of LPO and its operating models practiced by U.S. and U.K. law firms and corporations. Secondly, the outsourcing of legal services creates significant challenges for ethics rules including conflict of interests, attorney-client privilege, supervision and fee sharing. Thirdly, this research explores the hidden potential of LPO to improve access to justice. This book develops an altogether new proposal where Indian LPO professionals could help alleviate the access to justice problem among indigent and low-income populations of the United States.

Insbesondere durch die Arbeiten an der Datenschutz-Grundverordnung hat die Frage nach der extraterritorialen Regelungshoheit in Internet-Sachverhalten neue Aufmerksamkeit erhalten. Die rechtsvergleichende Analyse offenbart dabei nicht nur überraschende Übereinstimmungen, auch zwischen der EU und den USA, sondern es wird mit Hilfe der induktiven Methode ein "datenschutzspezifisches Auswirkungsprinzip" als neue Anknüpfung ermittelt. Für die Zukunft entwirft der Autor ein modifiziertes Schutzprinzip: Dabei wird die grund- und menschenrechtliche Bedeutung des Datenschutzes aufgezeigt und dessen fundamentale und funktionsnotwendige Rolle in der modernen Demokratie dargelegt. Dementsprechend soll das klassische Schutzprinzip zu datenschutzrechtlichen Zwecken für grund- und menschenrechtlich gedeutete Schutzpflichten geöffnet werden, wobei insbesondere demokratische Prozesse als ein Schutzgut dieses weiterentwickelten Prinzips erfasst sind, das durch Datenmissbrauch gefährdet werden kann.
