  • Legislative approaches to regulating the digital sex industry are increasingly being debated at the international and national levels. There is a trend showing an increased interest in the decriminalization of sex work. At the same time, in many countries, activities related to digital prostitution remain criminalized. In this regard, it is important to analyze the international legal experience of the criminalization and decriminalization of digital prostitution, as well as to pay attention to the key problematic issues that arise during the criminalization and decriminalization of such an issue. The object of the study is the international experience of criminalization and decriminalization of digital prostitution. The subject of the study is social relations that arise, change, and cease during the criminalization and decriminalization of digital prostitution. The research methodology consists of such methods as philosophical, logical, special-legal, system analysis methods, and formal-dogmatic methods. Research results. As a result of the study of the international legal experience of criminalization and decriminalization of digital prostitution, it was concluded that the criminalization and/or decriminalization of digital prostitution is treated differently in different countries. Workers in this industry advocate decriminalization, not legalization, because decriminalization puts power directly in the hands of sex workers and creates no legal barriers. Countries that have decriminalized digital prostitution believe that sex work is real work and should be treated respectfully, and banning resources such as OnlyFans is not in favor of such workers. Regarding positions on the criminalization of prostitution, countries use different models of such criminalization, including the model of legalization of digital prostitution, which, on the one hand, allows prostitution, but establishes criminal liability for deviations from the rules established by the state.

  • 우리나라 법제는 비의료인에 의한 의료행위를 엄격히 금지하고 있는데, 문신시술의 경우 의료행위로 분류되어 비의료인이 문신시술시 무면허의료행위로 처벌받게 된다. 그런데, 현실적으로 문신시술을 의료인에게 받는 경우가 매우 드물고, 문신시술을 업으로 하고 있는 비의료인들은 직업선택의 자유 침해 등을 주장하며 비의료인에 의한 문신시술의 의료행위성을 부정하고 비범죄화할 것을 요구하고 있다. 그런데 문신시술은 바늘 등을 사용하여 이루어지기 때문에 신체에 대한 침습이 있어 의료인이 행하지 않으면 보건위생상 위해가 발생할 수 있는 행위로 볼 수 있고 감염 예방 등을 위해 엄격한 관리가 필요하다. 그러나 이러한 현실적인 부분과 법제와의 괴리를 고려할 때, 보건의료적 관점에서 안전성을 고려하면서도, 사실상 의료인에 의해 행해지는 문신시술이 많지 않은 현실을 고려하여 비의료인에 의한 문신시술을 제도화하는 방안 등에 대해 전향적으로 생각을 해 볼 필요가 있다. 본고는 이러한 관점에서 문신시술이 의료행위에 해당하는지 법제를 검토하고, 보건의료적 관점에서 문제가 된다면 이를 해결하기 위한 방안을 모색하여 현실을 반영하면서도 안전성을 도모할 수 있는 대안으로 3단계로 나누어 단계화된 접근을 제시하였다.

  • In traditional medicine, Cannabis sativa L. has been used for variety of reasons. Old literatures delineate that Cannabis had been used as anesthetic and analgesic, or to reduce symptoms such as cough, paralysis and so on. Although Cannabis has a long history of medical use, it is illegal in many countries including South Korea. Controversy over decriminalization of Cannabis to allow cannabis for therapeutic use has been around for many years. In order to understand current knowledge on the therapeutic use of medical Cannabis, comprehension of cannabinoids and other constituents of Cannabis is important. Here we reviewed the pharmacological effect of Cannabis and current mandatory regulation over Cannabis in many countries to suggest necessity of research on medical Cannabis.
