"In one wide-ranging volume, Lambert and the country reporters demonstrate that law can not only keep up with technological change, but can in fact stay well ahead by anticipating upcoming questions. This comprehensive comparative reference will be invaluable for lawyers and students." (Professor Joshua Fairfield. Washington and Lee University School of Law, Review of a previous edition)Bringing together a global team of authors, the International Handbook of Social Media Laws covers the law relating to social media across 34 countries in total. From influential social media defamation cases in Australia, to tweeting from court, and regulations enforced by the UK's Online Safety Act 2023, this book clearly articulates the main legal issues and developments across various legal jurisdictions, to ensure a company's social media presence is fully compliant with the law of each country. The third edition has been fully updated to incorporate new criminal and civil case law, and covers topics including:- Online abuse, online bullying and cyberbullying laws - Laws or rules specific to children and social media - Bans or restrictions on the use of, or access to, the internet or social media, including the influential TikTok, Inc. v. Garland case in the US - Use of social media as evidence in courts - Hacking and data breach laws. Contributors to the volume each provide coverage of their own country, ensuring the volume is both authoritative and practical. Countries represented include: Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, El Salvador, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Senegal, Serbia, Singapore, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Kingdom, United States and Uruguay.This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Intellectual Property and IT online service.

Essentials

Der demografische Wandel verschärft den Personalmangel in Krankenhäusern, Pflegeeinrichtungen und anderen Gesundheitseinrichtungen zunehmend. Klassische Rekrutierungsstrategien stoßen an ihre Grenzen – soziale Medien gewinnen daher als Instrument der Personalgewinnung immer mehr an Bedeutung. Dieses essential zeigt praxisnah, studiengestützt und wissenschaftlich fundiert, wie Einrichtungen im Gesundheitswesen ihr Personalmarketing modernisieren können, um qualifiziertes Fachpersonal gezielt anzusprechen.
Basierend auf einer Umfrage unter Beschäftigten im Gesundheitssektor sowie einer Inhaltsanalyse von Social-Media-Auftritten entwickelt das Buch konkrete Empfehlungen für den Einsatz von Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn und XING. Es zeigt, welche Kanäle welche Zielgruppen erreichen, welche Inhalte überzeugen, wie die Arbeitgebermarke authentisch und attraktiv kommuniziert werden kann und welche Rolle eine professionelle Website als digitale Visitenkarte spielt.
Kurz: Eine kompakte, umsetzbare Anleitung für ein zukunftsfähiges Personalmarketing im Gesundheitswesen – fundiert, praxisnah und lösungsorientiert.

Im Gesundheitssektor kommt es zu einem immer stärkeren Personalmangel, der vor allem auf den demografischen Wandel zurückzuführen ist und mit den bestehenden Rekrutierungspraktiken nicht abgedeckt werden kann. Die Bedeutung von sozialen Medien in der Personalbeschaffung nimmt zu. Deswegen entwickelt das vorliegende Springer Essential Empfehlungen, wie das Personalmarketing eines Krankenhauses, eines Altersheims, etc., weiterentwickelt werden kann, um zusätzliches qualifiziertes Personal zu gewinnen.Um eine fundierte Grundlage für die Empfehlungen zu schaffen, wurden drei Forschungsmethoden angewendet. In einer Umfrage wurde das Arbeitssuchverhalten von Menschen, die in diesem Bereich arbeiten, sowie ihr Verhalten in den sozialen Medien untersucht. Es wurde eine Inhaltsanalyse durchgeführt, um die erfolgreichsten Social-Media-Kanäle und Inhalte von Krankenhäusern zu finden. Schließlich ergaben drei Experteninterviews, dass die stärkere Nutzung von sozialen Medien zur Reichweitensteigerung bei der Personalgewinnung genutzt werden kann.Die empirische Untersuchung hat gezeigt, dass folgende Arbeitgeber-Wertversprechen attraktiv für zukünftige Mitarbeiter sind: die Einrichtung liegt in einer Großstadt oder in einer attraktiven Naturumgebung, Nähe zu einem großen Flughafen, Kino und Schulen. Darüber hinaus spielen folgende Merkmale des Arbeitsgebers eine Rolle: Familienfreundlichkeit, eine angenehme Atmosphäre, ein guter Teamgeist, gute Organisation des Onboardings, ein strukturierter erster Arbeitstag, eine ausführliche Einarbeitung und Maßnahmen zur Mitarbeiterbindung, zum Beispiel Angebote zur Weiterbildung und gute Karrierechancen.Was die Aktivitäten in den sozialen Medien angeht, sollte für die allgemeine Präsentation einer Gesundheitseinrichtung vor allem Instagram und Facebook genutzt werden, um dort die Arbeit realistisch darzustellen und mit attraktiven Formaten mehr Menschen zu erreichen. Die Kanäle für die berufsspezifische Präsentation der Gesundheitseinrichtungen, namentlich LinkedIn und XING, sollen genutzt werden, um detaillierte Stellenanzeigen und Inhalte zu schalten, um die Arbeit der Mitarbeiter realitätsnah darzustellen. Die Homepage fungiert als Schnittstelle und als gemeinsame Informationsquelle. Daher sollte sie ansprechend gestaltet sein und einen Fokus auf die Karriereseite legen.Bei der Frage, welche Kanäle für eine Gesundheitseinrichtung geeignet sind, zeigte sich, dass XING vor allem für eine ältere Zielgruppe in Deutschland geeignet ist. LinkedIn spricht vor allem internationale Bewerber an. Instagram kann verwendet werden, um Menschen aus den meisten demografischen Gruppen zu erreichen, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf der jüngeren Generation liegt. Facebook spricht auch viele demografische Gruppen an, daher können auch Inhalte, die für Instagram erstellt wurden, hier gepostet werden.Abgesehen von Social-Media-Plattformen sind die persönlichen Kontakte in der Personalbeschaffung nicht zu unterschätzen. Eine weitere Empfehlung ist daher, Mitarbeitern finanzielle Anreize zu geben, wenn auf Ihre Initiative zusätzliches Personal eingestellt wird.Für Einrichtungen im Gesundheitswesen ist es unerlässlich, Maßnahmen zu ergreifen, um die schlechte Arbeitssituation zu verbessern. Soziale Medien können dies gut unterstützen, insbesondere wenn die Einrichtungen die Verbesserungsvorschläge berücksichtigt, die in den Empfehlungen dieses Essentials erwähnt werden.&nbsp;

Personalmarketing mit sozialen Medien für Gesundheitsberufe

'A thrilling story of journalistic investigation . . . Baker's undeniable talent might make me sick with envy, but the truly nauseating thing here is the moral void he sketches at the heart of the tech world' Sarah Ditum, The Times A searing critique of the crony-capitalist, talent-scraping culture of the Stanford elites, by a brilliant young journalistWhen seventeen-year old Theo Baker arrived at Stanford University one brisk September morning, its manicured lawns, palm trees and sparkling fountains, all under azure Californian skies, provoked in him both wonderment and a sense of anticipation. After all, this legendary campus, where Rodin sculptures rub shoulders with nuclear laboratories, is where Silicon Valley was birthed. Its research park housed the headquarters of Facebook and Hewlett Packard, with venture capitalists a stone's throw away, ready to fund the next promising teenager's startup. With an annual budget eclipsing the budgets of 116 countries, yet a reputation for being laid-back and innovative, Stanford seemed like tech heaven. Instead, Baker discovered a cultural rot. In this astonishing debut Baker recounts his freshman year mission to uncover the secrets behind Silicon Valley's training ground. He describes the Stanford inside Stanford, a strange, money-soaked subculture of infinite excess and access, afforded only to those special few students plucked from the crowd and expected to create billion dollar companies. And he documents a culture of getting ahead at any cost, of cut corners enabled and embraced. A culture that went to the very top. Baker's investigations for the student newspaper would soon place him in the impossibly difficult position of investigating his own university's president, a famous neuroscientist with a squeaky-clean reputation. By the end of his freshman year, after Baker's reporting revealed two decades of unreported research misconduct allegations, including in a study that claimed to have found the cause of degeneration in Alzheimer's patients, Stanford's president was forced to resign. Both coming-of-age story and clear-eyed exposé, Baker takes us inside this elite American world like no other, revealing the ambitious, amoral, and at-times laughably absurd truth behind the institution training kids to rule the world.

How to Rule the World

Das globale digitale Ökosystem wird von einigen wenigen Technologieunternehmen kontrolliert. Es baut auf Abhängigkeiten auf, die während der klassischen Kolonialzeit entstanden sind. Heute muss der Kolonisator nicht mehr physisch in einem kolonisierten Land anwesend sein, um das kolonisierte Volk mit der Peitsche zu schlagen: Die globale digitale Architektur gibt den Kolonialherren subtilere Werkzeuge der Ausbeutung an die Hand.
 
 Satyajeet Malik zeigt in seinem bahnbrachenden Buch strukturelle und systemische Entwicklungen einer globalen Architektur, deren Ziel es ist, die Souveränität zu untergraben und die Ausbeutung der Länder des Globalen Südens zu intensivieren. Auch wenn sich die Form und die Strategie der kolonialen Ausbeutung geändert haben, bleibt ihr Hauptziel dasselbe: die Gewinnung von Reichtum und Ressourcen auf Kosten anderer.

The surprising story of how corporate scandals - from Enron to the Facebook privacy scandal - change the way the world works for the better.Pepper Culpepper and Taeku Lee draw on a decade of research on policymaking and public opinion to show us how scandals can ignite a public with few political outlets for their discontent. Scandals don't simply dominate news cycles: they can provoke us to demand better policy, spurring governments to adopt rules that protect us from massive corporations run amok.Today it is giant companies, not governments, who run the world. They launch rockets into space, control satellite communication and develop era-defining AI technologies. But around the globe, these corporate titans are facing increasing public hostility.Tech giants are seen as promoting misinformation, undermining democracy and violating our privacy. Big banks, reeling since the financial crisis of 2008, continue to be racked with major scandals. Drawing on real-life examples such as the powdered milk scandal that rocked France, the VW scandal in Germany, the Goldman Sachs scandal in the United States, Cambridge Analytica in Britain and Samsung in South Korea - the authors show that these scandals are not just symptoms of a careless corporate elite, they are opportunities for real political change.Pepper Culpepper and Taeku Lee reveal how the shared anger of citizens can be channelled into a backlash that has the potential to reinvigorate our failing democracies. One corporate scandal at a time.

An award-winning neurologist on the Stone-Age roots of our screen addictions, and what to do about them. The human brain hasn’t changed much since the Stone Age, let alone in the mere thirty years of the Screen Age. That’s why, according to neurologist Richard Cytowic—who, Oliver Sacks observed, “changed the way we think of the human brain”—our brains are so poorly equipped to resist the incursions of Big Tech: They are programmed for the wildly different needs of a prehistoric world. In Your Stone Age Brain in the Screen Age, Cytowic explains exactly how this programming works—from the brain’s point of view. What he reveals in this book shows why we are easily addicted to screen devices; why young, developing brains are particularly vulnerable; why we need silence; and what we can do to push back. In the engaging storytelling style of his popular TED Talk, Cytowic draws an easily comprehensible picture of the Stone Age brain’s workings—the function of neurotransmitters like dopamine in basic instincts for survival such as desire and reward; the role of comparison in emotion, and emotion in competition; and, most significantly, the orienting reflex, one of the unconscious circuits that automatically focus, shift, and sustain attention. Given this picture, the nature of our susceptibility to digital devices becomes clear, along with the possibility of how to break their spell. Full of practical actions that we can start taking right away, Your Stone Age Brain in the Screen Age offers compelling evidence that we can change the way we use technology, resist its addictive power over us, and take back the control we have lost.
