Australia and New Zealand are in a unique part of the world. They are both fairly isolated, and the nearest countries to them tend to be much worse off socioeconomically (Papua New Guinea, for example. Many factors have contributed to their uniqueness over the years.

The greatest challenge facing law enforcement agencies in investigating the exploitation, cyber stalking, and obscenity is the interconnected nature of technology that forms the internet, making it a global problem.

The regional agreement like the Europe convention on cyber crime has thus failed to keep pace with the rapid technological advancements hence leading to their imperfection (Clough, 2012).
The conventions in the form of regional agreements are also not a model law as others argue it out. However, they are just framework ...

Cultural differences are one of the issues that may undermine success of such moves, especially when the ...

The term tribunal holds several definitions. It may be likened to a court while others may choose to describe a tribunal as a committee tasked with the role of overseeing particular obligations. Tribunals usually hold powers of adjudication. Two or more countries may deem it important to form tribunals for several reasons.

This increases confidence from member countries in the neutrality of the tribunals and consequently their ability to make impartial decisions on matters that affect member countries. When a dispute between two or more countries is settled in one ...
