Presidente del TSJ inicia visita oficial a China para afianzar lazos de cooperación judicialIn his presentation, entitled “The Rule of Law in Cyberspace”, the president of the Venezuelan highest court said that the phenomenon of globalization has brought about the implementation of new information technologies, “although they are aimed at expanding our own horizons, by improving the capacity for interrelation and interconnection of people around the world, they represent new challenges to legal institutions”. He added that this virtual geography created by computers and networks, while boosting communication and commercial interconnection, “also offers a means for people without faces or scruples to freely engage in illegal activities against individuals and our own states”. He also said that “our States have the obligation to agree on adequate, innovative and effective mechanisms that allow the prevention, investigation and prosecution of those responsible for illegal acts in cyberspace, as well as the timely reparation of the victims of these illegal behaviors”. He pointed out that in order to overcome these challenges, the creation of a common law and a global jurisdiction for Internet matters must be supported, constituted by an open, impartial, efficient and reliable judicial system, whose purpose is to resolve disputes that may result from relations generated by electronic commerce, and whose decisions are binding on all States.
