Shinzo Abe's powerful legacy - The QUAD #shinzoabe #quad #usa #india #japan #australia #military
Abe Shinzo’s assassination is a great loss to a region he helped to re-imagine as the “Indo-Pacific”. Leaders have reacted with shock at his killing. US President Joe Biden lauded Abe’s effort to “advance a common vision for a free and open Indo-Pacific” and India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi proclaimed a national day of mourning for a man “ahead of his times”. Australia’s Anthony Albanese described Abe as “a giant of the world stage” and singled out the Quad grouping, drawing together the United States, India, Australia and Japan, as “a legacy of Mr Abe’s diplomatic activism”. Biden, Modi and Albanese joined to issue a statement describing Abe as a “transformative leader” and pledged to honour his memory by “redoubling our work towards a peaceful and prosperous region”.
Abe was the first initiator of the Quad regional grouping in the 2000s and remained its key champion throughout its re-birth in recent years. In a canonical speech “Confluence of the Two Seas” delivered in 2007 to the Indian parliament during his first brief stint as prime minister, Abe highlighted the importance of joining the Pacific and Indian oceans to advocate for a “broader Asia”. It was this speech that saw a clear structure of how the Indo-Pacific might be conceived – “a dynamic coupling as seas of freedom and of prosperity”, as he described, “a ‘broader Asia’ that broke away geographical boundaries is now beginning to take on a distinct form”.

Fair use is the right to use a copyrighted work under certain conditions without permission of the copyright owner. The doctrine helps prevent a rigid application of copyright law that would stifle the very creativity the law is designed to foster. It allows one to use and build upon prior works in a manner that does not unfairly deprive prior copyright owners of the right to control and benefit from their works. Together with other features of copyright law like the idea/expression dichotomy discussed above, fair use reconciles the copyright statute with the First Amendment.
