In this article, the author points out the challenges of legal transplantation, and initially offers practical solutions to improve the effectiveness of legal transplantation in Vietnam in the coming time.

Abstract: Vietnam has possessed a distinct and exceptional Criminal Procedure Code known as the Criminal Procedure Code of the Le Dynasty since the latter part of the 18th century. While the Le Dynasty drew inspiration from Chinese law, they did not simply copy it. Instead, they created their own Criminal Procedure Code alongside the Criminal Code. Containing a total of 31 articles, this Code provides a comprehensive set of guidelines and protocols for addressing a wide range of cases, including murder, robbery, theft, gambling, and even crimes involving the mistreatment of innocent individuals. This approach, when placed in the historical context of that time, is truly unique. This Code is widely regarded as one of the earliest Criminal Procedure Codes in Eastern countries. The author of this article will examine the content and significance of this Code to highlight the importance of safeguarding human rights and legitimate interests. These values, as per the author's perspective, can be further upheld and advanced in the present circumstances.

Abstract: In the contemporary world and especially in the current trend of expanding legal sources, “soft law” is becoming more and more popular. This term refers to legal tools that do not officially establish legal effect, but in fact, can bring about certain legal results by being recognized and applied by competent state agencies. In this article, the authors analyze current concepts of soft law, point out the reality of the perception and application of soft law in Vietnam, and propose some recommendations.

ABSTRACT

The LGBT right to adopt is an issue, which is extremely necessary to research in the context of Vietnam. There are some controversial problems relating to the LGBT right to adopt, including: Should this right be legalized? How have their rights been limited in Vietnam? What should we do to protect this right for LGBT in Vietnam? In our opinion, these questions should be answered clearly and comprehensively, especially in the political, social, and economical contexts of Vietnam. There have been some scientific publications in Vietnam over the past few years concerning this topic. They show that LGBT persons wish to adopt children, but this right has not been legalized under Vietnamese law yet. In fact, some LGBT persons, especially same-sex couples, are still living together as a family without legal guarantees such as conditions of personality, mutual property, as well as the nurturing and taking care of children. In this paper, the authors analyze and evaluate the shortcomings of ensuring conditions for the LGBT right to adopt as well as the reasons why they exist. At the end of this paper, the authors point out some long-term and urgent solutions, as well as the ways to actualize them in the conditions of Vietnam in order to protect better the LGBT right to adopt.

German-speaking jurists from 6 East Asian countries (Korea, Japan, China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Mongolia) describe constitutional law and private law after 1945 in a comparison with Germany and Europe, candidly and with a great deal of foresight, for example in relation to China's future business law/ Der vorliegende Tagungsband versammelt die Ergebnisse der 4. Konferenz deutschsprachiger Juristen in Ostasien, die 2019 an der Chungnam-Universität in Daejeon (Korea) stattfand. Enthalten sind Beiträge zum Verfassungsrecht und Privatrecht in Bezug auf Deutschland und auf Europa, vor allem aber spannungsvolle und informative Analysen aus Süd-Korea, Taiwan, Japan, der Volksrepublik China, der Mongolei und Vietnam. Die deutschsprachigen Autoren aus Ostasien gehen von der Verfassungslage und ihren Vorbildern aus und widmen sich dann der Umsetzung in der politischen Praxis und der Rechtsprechung. Es folgen parallele Analysen zum Zivilrecht dieser Länder. Defizite kommen dabei ebenso zur Sprache wie Aussichten auf künftige Entwicklungen.
