Cowan D: Law and Technology

Law and Technology

Provides a radical reappraisal of the right to free speech by critiquing pre-existing theory and a novel reinterpretation of the right as a matter of theory and practice.

What does free speech mean? In this book, Paul Wragg argues for a universal formulation of free speech drawn exclusively from autonomy. He demonstrates that although the right has some applicability to the horizontal plane, it is more restrictive in some contexts, and more empowering in others, than the literature presently recognises. Reading across jurisdictions produces different, often conflicting, answers to the question of what free speech means. As global citizens of the digital age, we need a reliable means of judging national practices to know if our free speech rights are authentic. Theory is vital to this endeavour. Yet, within it, we find a discourse that is intuitive, lacking coherence, and tainted by national experience. It is a narrative rooted in vertical tropes of state power and democratic participation, seeking application to the horizontal world of private actors controlling the public sphere through social media, employability, and privacy-based interests. This innovative, rigorously researched, and comprehensive restatement of the right to free speech is both topical and important. It is an invaluable resource for policy makers, practitioners, and commentators across the globe.

A Radical Restatement

Free Speech Theory

One of the promises of Brexit was to allow the UK to regain its legislative sovereignty from the EU. However, after Brexit, UK data protection law must remain in line with EU standards in order not to lose the adequacy status that allows personal data to be transferred from the EU. This circumstance generates tensions between the EU, which is committed to preserving its digital sovereignty by ensuring an adequate protection of personal data even beyond its borders, and the UK's ambition to become a champion of the digital economy by adopting an innovative and pro-business legislation in the digital field.
 
The book analyses the latest legal and policy developments in this context, focusing on data protection but also exploring its intersection with other related regulatory areas, such as artificial intelligence and online safety. Renowned international experts contextualise current regulatory trends and policy proposals to understand whether a new UK model in the field of digital regulation is emerging and to what extent this will exacerbate existing tensions between the UK and the EU.
 
The book includes an accessible and detailed analysis of the major judicial decisions, laws, and current bills offering an invaluable guide to academics, practitioners, and policymakers navigating the complex issues of cross-border data protection post-Brexit.

Comparative Media Law and Ethics

Studies in International Trade and Investment Law

This open access book examines how international trade agreements apply to domestic regulations on cross-border data flows and then proposes a multilayered framework to align international trade law with evolving norms and practices in global data governance.

Digital trade and global data governance are at a unique crossroads, raising significant policy challenges. The book focuses on five policy areas at the interface of digital trade and global data governance: privacy, cybersecurity, governmental access to data, data divide, and competition. In five separate chapters, the book analyses how different types of domestic laws in each of these policy areas interface with existing provisions in international trade law. Thereafter, each of these chapters explores the challenges and possibilities for aligning international trade law with evolving norms, standards and best practices in that specific area of data regulation, both at the domestic and transnational level.

Drawing upon these findings, the final chapter proposes a multilayered framework for aligning international trade law with evolving norms and practices in global data governance. The key message of the book is that international trade law can and should meaningfully align with and contribute to the development of transnational data governance norms and practices. It can also foster robust regulatory cooperation among various stakeholders of the digital economy.

As the book offers a broad perspective on the significance of digital trade rules in a datafied world, it will benefit scholars, practitioners and policymakers working on digital trade and data regulation, helping its readers explore fresh avenues in the future development of digital trade rules.

Routledge Research in Information Technology and E-Commerce Law

This book will provide critical insights into Internet governance through an in-depth examination of human rights law. The term Internet governance is used to describe the interlinked processes that steer the growth and development of the Internet. The Internet is unique as a user-generated, international, decentralised technology that has evolved without strong State control and, as such, poses distinct regulatory challenges. Given the pervasive nature of the Internet, its use increasingly brings implications for the protection of human rights. Equality of access, privacy and freedom of expression all need to be supported within a governance structure that is often dominated by State and commercial interests. Internet Governance: A Human Rights Perspective examines the regulatory framework and the role of the State, self-regulatory bodies and co-regulatory initiatives from the perspective of the protection of fundamental freedoms. The book will be in three main parts: the first will examine the international human rights framework with a focus on Internet development; the second will take specific rights in turn and present an in-depth analysis of key policy issues; and the third will bring these together to present a critical account of the potential for human rights debates to shape the future of the Internet. This book will be of great interest to students and academics with an interest in IT law, Internet regulation and human rights law.

Stronger Victims’ Rights in EU Law?

The Manchester Spenser

This book explores the English response to the sudden and devastating 1598 revolt against the Munster colony through two anonymous texts that have been associated with the poet and planter Edmund Spenser. Set against the background of nationwide unrest in Ireland and the ongoing Anglo-Spanish conflict, both the Brief Discourse and longer Supplication display huge vitriol against the untrustworthy Irish and their Catholic conspiracies and demand rapid action by the state in London to save the beleaguered colonists and England's control of Ireland as a whole. The more extreme, propagandistic and providentialist Supplication wanted revenge and was openly contemptuous of Queen Elizabeth for not doing her duty as a godly prince to defend those striving with their own blood and treasure to make Ireland a more civilized place. As well as contextualizing the documents and exploring the mentalities, themes and literary influences involved, this study also explores the problems of their authorship looking at a variety of English colonists, clergy and officials in Ireland in addition to Spenser himself. Eventually the laborious process of stylometric testing was used to compare the two anonymous texts against 21 other contemporary writings. The tests established Spenser as author of the Brief Discourse, which was already odds on, but discovered an entirely unexpected author for The Supplication who was not known to have been in Munster in 1598. These important texts have been fully annotated and are presented to the public in modernized English.

"A masterpiece of travel and topographical writing, and an incomparable and enthralling meditation on times past."--John Banville"He knows this world as no one else does, and writes about it with awe and love, but also with measured grace, an artist's eye and a scientist's sensibility."--Colm TóibínIn its landscape, history, language, and folklore, the Connemara region on Ireland's wild and windswept West Coast is a dramatic and breathtaking place. From its fabled villages, seaside cliffs, bogs, lakes, coral beaches, stark mountains, and ever-meandering country roads lined with stone walls, this rugged kingdom surprises and inspires, and nobody knows this more than artist, cartographer, and celebrated writer Tim Robinson. In A Little Gaelic Kingdom, Robinson brings this enchanting Irish peninsula rapturously to life. Setting off, he embarks on a walking journey, traversing and exploring the natural world, while revealing the history, mystery, language, and people that have indelibly shaped this much-mythologized countryside. From the glacial valley of Maam to the fishing villages and rocky shorelines of the region's archipelago, Robinson carries encyclopedic knowledge, great curiosity, and a deep love of place and its inhabitants with him on this engaging and evocative journey.Beautifully crafted and intimately rendered, A Little Gaelic Kingdom is a timeless and revelatory work of travel and nature writing.

Hart Studies in Comparative Public Law

This book explores how constitutional courts have transformed communication and overcome their reluctance to engage in direct dialogue with citizens.

How has the information revolution affected the relationship of constitutional courts with the public and the media? The book looks in detail at the communication strategies of the US Supreme Court, the Supreme Court of Canada, and in Europe the German Federal Constitutional Tribunal, the French Conseil Constitutionnel and the Italian Constitutional Court, arguing that when it comes to the relationship between courts and the media, different jurisdictions share many similarities. It focuses on the consequences of the communication revolution of courts both in terms of their relationship with public opinion and of the legitimacy of judicial review of legislation.

Some constitutional courts have attracted criticism by engaging in proactive communication and, therefore, arguably yielding to the temptation of public support. The book argues that objections to the developing institutional communications employed by courts come from a preconceived notion of public opinion. It considers the burden the communication revolution has placed on constitutional courts to achieve a balance between transparency and seclusion, proximity and distance from public opinion. It puts forward important arguments for how this balance can be achieved.

The book will interest scholars in constitutional law and public comparative law, sociologists, historians, political scientists, and scholars of media law and communication studies.
