This paper advocates that the World Trade Organization
(“WTO”) should revise the accession process for countries
classified by the World Bank as “Fragile and Conflict Affected”
(“FCA”), in order to expedite the accession timeline and allow
more expansive concessions, transition times, and technical
assistance, similar to the terms of accession currently applied to
Least Developed Countries (“LDCs”). Specifically, WTO
should permit FCA countries recovering from crisis, genocide,
natural disaster, or other severe unrest, to take advantage of the
more flexible “special and differential treatment” accession
provisions typically accorded to LDCs in the existing WTO
system, while also providing enhanced “trade-related technical
assistance” (TRTA) programming to such FCA countries to
speed their accession process. This paper describes the WTO
accession challenges faced by Iraq as a case study in why
expediting WTO membership of FCAs is a critically important
way to help such countries attract new investment and encourage economic growth and diversification of economies that tend to rely heavily in single commodities such as oil.

1. Under Chinese patent law, compensation for patent infringement can be calculated based on actual losses, benefits to the infringer, or a royalty rate. However, in practice courts often award statutory damages between $4,646-$774,377 instead of assessing actual damages.
2. New amendments taking effect in June 2021 will introduce punitive damages for the first time, allowing up to five times the original compensation if infringement is deemed intentional and serious.
3. While Chinese law provides for calculating damages based on losses, benefits, or royalty rates, statutory damages have become the default method due to their simplicity, and actual compensation methods are rarely considered.

The Supreme Court recently ruled that copyright law allows for the digitization of books without permission from the copyright holder as long as the purpose is to provide access for people with disabilities. This raises questions about whether the same logic could allow for broader digital access to copyrighted works for other purposes like research and education. The ruling may lead to calls for expanding fair use and access to copyrighted materials.

The promotion consists mainly of:

- an emergency-tailored policy on the delivery of the 'face-to-face' phase in case the outbreak of a new sanitary emergency requires online teaching only.
This is an unprecedented year for the Academy of Legal Studies in Business (ALSB) and the world. A worldwide pandemic and powerful protests against racism have upended fundamental norms and values, forcing all of us to ask deep and sometimes uncomfortable questions about ourselves and our future.
The theme of our conference is Managing Disruption. Selection of this as the conference theme has become more relevant than anyone could have imagined. Higher education is facing enormous pressure to adapt to changing circumstances. Legal studies faculty who teach in business schools have an important role to play, and it is my hope that the conference will offer valuable information for attendees from a wide variety of perspectives.

Call for Papers: Governing and Living Amid COVID-19 in the MENAGovernments throughout the entire world are grappling with the unchartered waters of COVID-19. As elsewhere, responses to the challenge have varied greatly across the MENA with some national leaders taking action early and decisively and others all but denying its existence. COVID-19 is undoubtedly having an impact on politics and on the very nature of authority in the region. The question is what type of impact and where and how will it differ, and why. COVID-19 has furthermore brought important structural inequalities into the spotlight as economic suffering and death tolls reflect class, gender and race differences. How are peoples experiencing COVID-19 and what will be the long-term impact politically, economically, socially, and culturally? COVID-19 has moreover impacted, if not exacerbated, existing crises in the region. How has COVID-19 impacted the revolution in Lebanon or the on-going war in Yemen, for example? How has it affected migration and refugees and what is the long-term impact in terms of policy and refugees themselves? These are just some of the questions this special issue seeks to address. This special issue will take a broad look at how the MENA – the state, governments, and societies of the region -- are governing and/or living amid COVID-19. It encourages papers from a wide range of disciplines and methodological approaches in the social sciences and humanities.
