| | | Since starting my second legal study, I found the importance of finding rules from various cases and situations, then applying these rules to issues. As a result, final outcome of applying a rule in a particular situation may not be ideal in terms of balance; win-win relationship hard to achieve, most of time win-lose relationship unavoidable, or the outcome can be unexpected from the original prediction. Having first educated in civil law country, a law or a rule is not something to be found, rather, it is given by the sovereign power. I may have been too short-sighted on the superficial outcome of the legal rulings using codified laws. Especially, I was agonizing over how to find an optimal balance between the oppressed and the oppressing power. I do not have a definite answer. However, I came to think that I should focus more on finding principles and applying principles to the issues. | |

As I mentioned earlier, just keeping balance may not be almighty. If one side seems unfairly oppressed, is it the best remedy to save the oppressed under any circumstance? If journalists are suffering from declining newspaper industry, would it be the best to subsidize journalism by the government, such as by bailout of newspaper companies, or employing journalists by the government? Newspaper industry is suffering by the change of business model and by emergence of new media formats. Now, they need to adapt themselves to rules of game in the new digital media era. It might be true that Google is free-riding on newspaper contents. Then, would it be necessary to save the newspaper industry? |
