    Anthem Press Regulating Cross-Border Data Flows: Issues,

    Out of stock

    Book SynopsisData is now one of the world’s most valuable resources. The adoption of data-driven applications across economic sectors has made data and the flow of data so pervasive that it has become integral to everything we as members of society do – from conducting our finances to operating businesses to powering the apps we use every day. For this reason, governing cross-border data flows is inherently difficult given the ubiquity and value of data, and the impact government policies can have on national competitiveness, business attractiveness and personal rights. The challenge for governments is to address in a coherent manner the broad range of data-related issues in the context of a global data-driven economy. This book engages with the unexplored topic of why and how governments should develop a coherent and consistent strategic framework regulating cross-border data flows. The objective is to fill a very significant gap in the legal and policy setting by considering multiple perspectives in order to assist in the development of a jurisdiction’s coherent and strategic policy framework.Trade Review“This book paints a rich picture of the issues policymakers should address when regulating cross-border data flows. A must-read for all those interested in governance processes in a global data-driven economy.” – Enrico Bonadio, Reader in Intellectual Property Law – City, University of London, UK.“The book by Mercurio and Yu provides invaluable insights into the dynamics of the data- driven economy. Building upon a deep understanding of the existing regulatory frameworks and the geopolitical powerplays, the authors charter the way forward for a coherent regulation of cross-border data flows as the lifeblood of our societies.” – PROF. DR.IUR. MIRA BURRI, Chair for International Economic and Internet Law, Managing Director Internationalization, Principal Investigator ERC Consolidator Grant: TRADE LAW 4.0 (2021- 2026), University of Lucerne, Switzerland.“The professional and diverse academic backgrounds of the two authors have ensured not only the quality of the output but also the unique perspectives of the discussion throughout. The book aims to provide an answer to the challenges of the new economy, it took a holistic approach in examining the pros and cons of the current framework and proposes an interest- based solution.”– Dr. TianxiangHe, School of Law at the City University of Hong, China.“This book distinguishes itself from the existing one in at least two aspects. For one, it is written by Hong Kong legal academics--HK is a global hub for various data-driven applications, and the HK government has been on the frontline of rolling out new regulatory approaches governing data-related issues. Hong Kong’s policies can inform other jurisdictions; moreover, its unique status as related to the Greater China Area, too, makes Hong Kong experience as a & quot; smart city " an attractive case study. For another, the authors have strong backgrounds in patents/IPRs; this is a very important yet less explored angle in the context of data governance. This book should be read by all scholars, policymakers and lawyers who are keen to capture the dynamics of law and data-driven technologies in Hong Kong, the hub of the most dynamic markets in Asia.”– Dr. Han-Wei Liu, Senior Lecturer, Monash University, Australia.Table of ContentsIntroduction; Key Considerations; Competing Models of Data Governance; A Case Study of Hong Kong; Considerations in Moving Forward.

  • EU Communications Law: Significant Market Power

    Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd EU Communications Law: Significant Market Power

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis fascinating book examines and offers critical comments on the new 'significant market power'-regime, as put into place by the 2003 European regulatory framework on electronic communications networks and services. An overview of this regime, its characteristics, guiding principles, and procedures is provided, using the mobile sector as a case study. The authors give a clear and comprehensive presentation of the new SMP-procedure that may lead to the imposition of remedies on undertakings with significant market power. The book also contains an analysis of all available European Commission comments on the notifications of draft measures by national regulatory authorities, for mobile as well as other markets.Addressing pressing issues, in view of the implementation of the new regulatory framework, this book is a useful working instrument for everyone who is active in the electronic communications sector including practicing lawyers, firms in the electronic communications sector, regulatory authorities, academics and policymakers throughout Europe.Trade Review'The book offers an extensive overview of the main characteristics of the 2003 EU regulatory framework regarding the imposition of remedies upon undertakings with significant market power (SMP), the legal texts and procedures preceding and deriving from this regime, as well as clear and accurate definitions of the markets concerned and is organized in five very concise chapters. . . The book is clearly written with electronic communications specialists in mind, i.e. practicing lawyers, regulatory authorities, policymakers and firms in the European electronic communications sector. Nevertheless, the clear structure, together with the more simply written tables and annexes of the book allow even readers who are new to the topic to follow the issues examined here with relative ease, as it helps maintain a flow throughout the book and cohesion between the policies examined here, the relevant legal documents and their practical implementation. The extensive bibliography at the end provides a great source for further reading in the areas of EU electronic communications and EU competition laws. . . This is definitely an indispensable book for those working in the electronic communications sector, not only for the specialized lawyers but also for the firms themselves, as it successfully guides the reader through the often labyrinthine regulatory framework and sector-specific legal texts. . .' -- Asimina Michailidou, Journal of Contemporary European StudiesTable of ContentsContents: 1.

    Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Networks, Complexity and Internet Regulation:

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisComplexity theory as a subject has gained increasing prominence across numerous disciplines including physics, biology, sociology and economics. Large interconnected systems such as the Internet display a number of inherent architectural characteristics deeming them well-suited to the study of complex dynamic networks. This important book uses various network science-based tools to explore the contentious issue of Internet regulation. The author demonstrates that the Internet as a global communications space is a self-organizing entity that has proven problematic for regulators, and that in order to regulate cyberspace, one must first understand how the network operates. In order to illustrate how the world wide web operates, Andres Guadamuz presents case studies in copyright policy, peer-production and cyber crime, providing in-depth analyses of the challenges posed by the Internet's complex dynamic networks. The book concludes that regulatory efforts that ignore empirical evidence will ultimately encounter serious problems. Networks, Complexity and Internet Regulation introduces network theory to legal audiences and applies some of the characteristics of large distributed self-organizing networks to the topic of Internet regulation. As such, this fascinating book will prove invaluable to researchers, academics and students in the fields of Internet regulation and policy, intellectual property law and information technology law.

  • Internet Domain Names, Trademarks and Free Speech

    Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Internet Domain Names, Trademarks and Free Speech

    5 in stock

    Book SynopsisAs the first form of truly rivalrous digital property, Internet domain names raise many challenges for law and policy makers. Analyzing the ways in which past disputes have been decided by courts and arbitrators, Jacqueline Lipton offers a comprehensive, global examination of the legal, regulatory and policy issues that will shape the future of Internet domain name governance. This comprehensive examination of domain name disputes involving personal names and political and cultural issues sheds light on the need to balance trademark policy, free speech and other pressing interests such as privacy and personality rights. The author stresses that because domain names can only be registered to one person at a time, they create problems of scarcity not raised by other forms of digital assets. Also discussed are the kinds of conflicts over domain names that are not effectively addressed by existing regulations, as well as possible regulatory reforms. Internet Domain Names, Trademarks and Free Speech brings pivotal new insights to bear in intellectual property and free speech discourse. As such, policymakers, scholars and students of intellectual property, cyber law, computer law, constitutional law, and e-commerce law will find it a valuable resource.Trade Review‘The growth of the global information economy has opened up a series of conflicts between civil society advocates on the one hand, and commercial interests seeking to expand intellectual property rights on the other. Jacqui Lipton has provided a wide-ranging and thoughtful analysis of the clash between commercial values and broader social values unfolding within the administration of the Internet domain name system. Lipton’s analysis is both rigorous and balanced, evaluating the development of the ICANN dispute resolution system and its impact on national laws, as well as considering possible future directions in the regulation of domain name rights and different dignitary interests.’ -- Jane K.

  • Judicial Protection of Fundamental Rights on the Internet: A Road Towards Digital Constitutionalism?

    Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Judicial Protection of Fundamental Rights on the Internet: A Road Towards Digital Constitutionalism?

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book explores how the Internet impacts on the protection of fundamental rights, particularly with regard to freedom of speech and privacy. In doing so, it seeks to bridge the gap between Internet Law and European and Constitutional Law. The book aims to emancipate the debate on internet law and jurisprudence from the dominant position, with specific reference to European legal regimes. This approach aims to inject a European and constitutional “soul” into the topic. Moreover, the book addresses the relationship between new technologies and the protection of fundamental rights within the theoretical debate surrounding the process of European integration, with particular emphasis on judicial dialogue. This innovative book provides a thorough analysis of the forms, models and styles of judicial protection of fundamental rights in the digital era and compares the European vision to that of the United States. The book offers the first comparative analysis in which the notion of (judicial) frame, borrowed from linguistic and cognitive studies, is systematically applied to the theories of interpretation and argumentation. With a Foreword by Robert Spano, President of the European Court of Human Rights.Trade ReviewThe book aims to inject a European and constitutional “soul” into the topic. This requires engaging in the dialogue between national and European courts. However, the book does not stop here. The thorough analysis of the forms, models, and styles of judicial protection of fundamental rights in the digital era also compares the European vision to that of the USA. * Journal of Consumer Policy *This volume indeed clearly contributes to both EU law scholarship … and to constitutional law studies themselves … The comparative analyses of the judicial protection of freedom of expression, privacy and data protection … are extremely detailed, clear and full encompassing ... Pollicino paves the way to further research on the role of judges in advancing (or hampering) the discourse on digital rights. -- Edoardo Celeste, Dublin City University * European Law Review *Judicial Protection of Fundamental Rights on the Internet provides a very useful and clear framework for critically reflecting on these issues from a transatlantic perspective. -- Maria Tzanou, Keele University, UK * EU Law Live *Professor Pollicino is to be congratulated for an insightful and informative book, that advances the foundational debate on the judicial protection of fundamental rights in a world increasingly digital and online. Anyone interested in the interplay between digital technologies, human rights, and the development of a fair information society should not miss it. * Luciano Floridi, Professor of Philosophy and Ethics of Information, University of Oxford, UK *This is a landmark work on the law of an increasingly digitalized public sphere and datafied society. Full of subtle and insightful readings of leading decisions of the CJEU, ECtHR, and other important authorities, [the book] exhibits both solid legal analysis and a humane sensibility, cognizant of the extraordinarily difficult articulation of priorities necessary when critical rights and interests collide. * Frank Pasquale, Professor of Law, Brooklyn Law School, USA *This is a deeply insightful and nuanced book. Oreste Pollicino provides a thorough and critical examination of the ways that courts on both sides of the Atlantic have used their remarkable power to embolden and erode fundamental rights such as privacy and free expression online. Pollicino adeptly reminds us that a true commitment to fundamental rights on the Internet requires ongoing scrutiny of courts themselves. * Woodrow Hartzog, Professor of Law and Computer Science, Northeastern University, USA *Table of Contents1.

    Book SynopsisDo conceptions of the Rule of Law reflect timeless truths, or are they in fact contingent on a particular information and communications infrastructure - one that we are fast leaving behind? Hildebrandt has engineered a provocative encounter between law and networked digital technologies that cuts to the heart of the dilemma confronting legal institutions in a networked world.'- Julie E. Cohen, Georgetown University, US'Many contemporary authors are wrestling with two technological developments which will change our society beyond recognition: big data analytics and smart technologies. Few though understand, or can explain, these developments in the way Mireille Hildebrandt does. In ambitiously bringing together legal theory, psychology, social ethnology and of course smart agency and ambient intelligence, Hildebrandt gives the most complete study of these vitally important developments. Books are often described as 'must read' though few actually are; this one genuinely is.'- Andrew Murray, London School of Economics, UKThis timely book tells the story of the smart technologies that reconstruct our world, by provoking their most salient functionality: the prediction and preemption of our day-to-day activities, preferences, health and credit risks, criminal intent and spending capacity.Mireille Hildebrandt claims that we are in transit between an information society and a data-driven society, which has far reaching consequences for the world we depend on. She highlights how the pervasive employment of machine-learning technologies that inform so-called 'data-driven agency' threaten privacy, identity, autonomy, non-discrimination, due process and the presumption of innocence. The author argues how smart technologies undermine, reconfigure and overrule the ends of the law in a constitutional democracy, jeopardizing law as an instrument of justice, legal certainty and the public good. Nevertheless, the book calls on lawyers, computer scientists and civil society not to reject smart technologies, explaining how further engaging these technologies may help to reinvent the effective protection of the Rule of Law.Academics and researchers interested in the philosophy of law and technology will find this book both discerning and relevant. Practitioners and policy makers in the areas of law, computer science and engineering will benefit from the insight into smart technologies and their impact today.Trade Review‘Hildebrandt’s book is thought-provoking and a needed contribution to discussions of the impacts of smart technologies.’ -- Beth-Anne Schuelke-Leech, Science and Public Policy‘In this challenging book, Mireille Hildebrandt again shows just how far she thinks ahead of the curve. Exploring the implications of the technological changes that are impelling humans towards an “onlife” world – a world of data-driven agency, the Internet of Things, and a radically different information and communication infrastructure –Hildebrandt asks how law can maintain its mission for justice, certainty and purposiveness. Having joined Hildebrandt in this new world, readers will find it difficult to put the book down.’ -- Roger Brownsword, Kings College London, UK‘In sum, the depth and precision with which Hildebrandt provides her insights is uncommon and striking, making this book (as law professor Andrew Murray remarks in his rear-cover endorsement) one of the few “must reads” within the field. Its content is provocative and challenging, having an appeal that is sure to reach far beyond the field of legal scholarship to accompanying disciplines of computing, science and philosophy from which the book draws. Likewise, it is clear that Hildebrandt benefits from working between the disciplines of law and computer science, with her experience in computer science departments evident in the way in which she sensitively translates between, and explores, the separate logics of law and technology.’ -- SCRIPT-ed‘Do conceptions of the Rule of Law reflect timeless truths, or are they in fact contingent on a particular information and communications infrastructure – one that we are fast leaving behind? Hildebrandt has engineered a provocative encounter between law and networked digital technologies that cuts to the heart of the dilemma confronting legal institutions in a networked world.’ -- Julie E.

Books are often described as “must read” though few actually are; this one genuinely is.’ -- Andrew Murray, London School of Economics, UK‘Mireille Hildebrandt’s deep perception of how law is embedded in a print culture, now combined with her conviction that transformations are called for in relation to the emerging digital-electronic culture underlies this innovative book. Both a philosopher and lawyer, she is a forefront thinker concerned with smart and robotic technologies. Her addition of how Japanese language and culture shows such an interesting variant on these technologies is a strong plus. Excellent reading.’ -- Don Ihde, Stony Brook University, US‘Hildebrandt’s book is thought-provoking and a needed contribution to discussions of the impacts of smart technologies. It would certainly be useful for a university course in law or courses specifically focused on smart and autonomous systems.’ -- Science and Public PolicyTable of ContentsContents: 1.

    Book SynopsisVirtual economies and financial crime are ever-growing, increasingly significant facets to banking, finance and anti-money laundering regulations on an international scale. In this pathbreaking and timely book, these two important issues are explored together for the first time in the same place. Clare Chambers-Jones examines the jurisprudential elements of cyber law in the context of virtual economic crime and explains how virtual economic crime can take place in virtual worlds. She looks at the multi-layered and interconnected issues association with the increasing trend of global and virtual banking via the 'Second Life' MMOG (Massively Multiplayer Online Game). Through this fascinating case study, the author illustrates how virtual worlds have created a second virtual economy which transgresses into the real, creating economic, political and social issues. Loopholes used by criminals to launder money through virtual worlds (given the lack of jurisdictional consensus on detection and prosecution) are also highlighted. The importance of providing legal clarity over jurisdictional matters in cyberspace is an increasing concern for policy makers and regulators, and this book provides a wealth of information on new aspects of cyber law and virtual economics. As such, it will prove essential reading for academics, students, researchers and policy makers across the fields of law generally, and more specifically, financial law and regulation, finance, money and banking, and economic crime.Table of ContentsContents: 1.

    Book SynopsisThe internet and the equipment through which it is delivered has revolutionised the way business offers its services and consumers access information. The constantly evolving technology will continue to become mobile both in terms of the apparatus used to get online, such as mobile phones, and also the wireless capability which will become widespread. Commercial use of the technology presents huge legal issues and has led to the introduction of significant new laws to govern online trade. However, the approach taken by the EU in regulating the internet differs markedly from that of the United States. Given the degree of trade between the two continents and in particular between the USA and the UK, it is vital that businesses on both sides of the Atlantic understand the diverse legal regimes, whether they operate in European or North American markets. This book provides an overview of the English law treatment of the internet, which is heavily influenced by the EU, and contrasts it where appropriate to American legal governance. The book examines issues including online contractual formation, privacy law across geographical borders, electronic signatures, online marketing and consumer sales over the internet. The book is essential reading for businesses in both lands.

  • The Content Governance Dilemma: Digital

    Springer International Publishing AG The Content Governance Dilemma: Digital

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis open access book is one of the first academic works to comprehensively analyse the dilemma concerning global content governance on social media. To date, no single human rights standard exists across all social media platforms, allowing private companies to set their own rules, values and parameters. On the one hand, this normative autonomy raises serious concerns, primarily around whether companies should be permitted to establish the rules governing free speech online. On the other hand, if social media platforms simply adopted international law standards, they would be compelled to operate a choice on which model to follow, and put in place mechanisms to uphold these general standards. This book examines this topic from a multidisciplinary perspective, drawing from the expertise of the authors in law, political science and communication studies. It provides a carefully reconstructed theory of the content governance dilemma, as well as pragmatic solutions for companies and policymakers. In this way, the book not only benefits academics by advancing the debate on content moderation issues, but also informs new policies and regulatory strategies by offering an up-to-date overview of rules and tools for content moderation, as well as an evaluation of their current level of compliance with standards emerged in international human rights law and digital constitutionalism initiatives.

    Book SynopsisThis book examines how cloud-based services challenge the current application of antitrust and privacy laws in the EU and the US. The author looks at the elements of data centers, the way information is organized, and how antitrust, competition and privacy laws in the US and the EU regulate cloud-based services and their market practices. She discusses how platform interoperability can be a driver of incremental innovation and the consequences of not promoting radical innovation. She evaluates applications of predictive analysis based on big data as well as deriving privacy-invasive conduct. She looks at the way antitrust and privacy laws approach consumer protection and how lawmakers can reach more balanced outcomes by understanding the technical background of cloud-based services.Table of ContentsCloud computing, antitrust and competition law – Cloud computing, privacy and data protection law – Cloud architecture – Big data – Cyber security – Cyber foreign policy – Certifications for cloud service providers – Interoperability and innovation.

    Book SynopsisWelche rechtlichen Grenzen sollen bei der Mitwirkung von Kindern und Jugendlichen in den Medien gelten? Diese Frage ist nicht nur Gegenstand einer gesamtgesellschaftlichen Diskussion, sondern bewegt spätestens seit den Caroline-Urteilen auch die juristische Welt. Die Autorin erläutert nicht nur die rechtlichen Grundlagen für minderjährige Akteure in Medien und sozialen Netzwerken, sondern zeigt auch die vorhandenen Schutzlücken auf. Anhand konkreter Maßnahmen empfiehlt Sie, die aktuelle Rechtslage zu reformieren, um dem verfassungsrechtlich garantierten Schutz Minderjähriger, aber auch der Meinungs- und Pressefreiheit, gerecht zu werden.
