An in-depth exploration of the network of agencies involved in policing child pornography—and what the future of security and care looks like. Facing the Child investigates the technocratic expertise in the policing of child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Mitali Thakor argues that CSAM has come to be framed as primarily a digital problem, to be resolved digitally, thereby unleashing a new form of corporatized policing helmed by global technology companies. Ambitious in scope, this multi-sited global ethnography draws on 4 years of original fieldwork and interviews with technology companies in the US, the United Nations in Bangkok, Thai and Dutch NGOs, and law enforcement in the US and the Netherlands. The book argues that in the 2010s, a network of technology companies, NGOs, and law enforcement created the notion of a “virtual child” in need of techno-solutionist saving to justify a vast expansion of surveillance technologies. The book examines how pervasive myths of child abuse online were exploited to serve the aims of seemingly disparate groups, from Christian neo-abolitionists to NGOs conducting virtual sting operations. It is this complex relationship between the care and securitization needed to fix the child victim as an object of data, concern, and rescue that the book explores.

Surveillance, Care, and the Policing of Violent Digital Images

Facing the Child

This book explores Chinese engagement in Africa’s mining sector within the context of international business. Conceptual and empirical contributions by diverse authors examine mining activities of Chinese companies in several African countries. Emerging from those contributions is a theory of minimal investment, defined as the degree to which the companies invest minimally in African operations, communities, and countries just for them to get by (i.e., function as normal).&nbsp;&nbsp; 
The volume presents four conditions that explain why minimal investment persists as a dominant logic of foreign firm behaviour in Africa. Institutions permit it, strategies enact it, heritage legitimizes it, and reactions stabilize it. Minimal investment has produced order, and order is safety both for firms and often for host institutions alike. Optimal investment, by contrast, introduces ‘danger’ because it changes the status quo, redistributes power, and mitigates African rather than firm risk. The Theory of Minimal Investment (TMI) reveals how underinvestment is an intentional, albeit seemingly rational, historically embedded, and institutionally sustained strategy of engagement. 
Coming at a time in which African countries are seeing a surge of Chinese interest in Africa, this book offers a cautionary tale of the consequences of organizations seeking the ‘help’ of Chinese companies. It will appeal to International Business studies and strategy researchers interested in interorganizational relationships, particularly from the African perspective.

The Consequences of Minimal Investment

Chinese Engagement in Africa's Mining Sector

A provocative rethinking of the intersection of death, technology, and disability, for a better life. We are all cyborgs, relying on technology—whether it’s Alexa, a pacemaker, or a titanium knee—for our quotidian existence. In our deep connection to a technological world, from robots to augmented and virtual realities, metaverses, and gaming, Candi Cann sees an opportunity, and good reason, to question our ideas about accessibility and inclusion. In augmented, she asks us to reconsider traditional notions of biology and death. Having relied on hearing aids from the age of four, Cann uses her experience to challenge readers to reconsider their assumptions about technologies and their role in life—and death. She also focuses on what it means that most of us are living longer with the intervention of medical technologies, and how a better understanding of our relationship to technology will grant us greater control as we age. Drawing on her life experience in Asia, the author explains how cultural and religious views of machines and artificial intelligence vary globally—in particular, how a Western fear of machines contrasts with an animistic worldview that can see machines as conduits of care for others, embedding spiritual possibilities.

This book showcases a selection of award-winning cases from the Global Contest for the Best China-focused Cases. The contests held between 2018 and 2022 recognized 63 exceptional cases, 13 of which are in this publication.

Each of the 13 cases has a unique focus. Some investigate how to capture value through new technologies and innovations or examine the intricate relationships between strategies, business models, and financial performance (examples include Freshippo, KFC China, Winner Technology, Geek+, and Alibaba vs. JD.com). Others analyze Chinese companies' challenges when entering international markets and their strategic responses (Midea and SHEIN). Some delve into leadership, entrepreneurial management, family business succession, negotiation, and conflict management (EtonHouse, Antigal, Qiangda Chilli, and Dispute over Year-end Bonuses). Two cases discuss how social enterprises can better balance their social purposes with financial sustainability and how companies can integrate social and business innovation (Daddy Lab and AstraZeneca). These cases originate from Chinese and international business schools, highlighting global interest in China's business and management dynamics.

Echoing the Chinese proverb, "A single spark can start a prairie fire," we firmly believe that with collective efforts, more faculty members will recognize the value of the case method and the extensive opportunities of China-themed cases in global management education. We are committed to collaborating with them to meet the growing demand for diverse cases with global perspectives.

Why unregulated free-market capitalism endangers democracy—and what to do about it. In Private Power and Democracy’s Decline, Mordecai Kurz explores the relationship between free-market capitalism and democracy. He shows that technology has made capitalism different from what was envisioned in the Age of Enlightenment. Technology creates centers of market power and monopoly concentration that result in a society in which some people are enriched immensely while many workers’ livelihoods are often destroyed. Contrary to conventional thinking, technological competition does not remove market power, which becomes a permanent fixture of free-market capitalism. Such private power creates political inequality and generates forces that cause democracy’s decline and possible destruction. Applying these ideas to the US, Kurz shows that today’s problems begin in the 1980s with the policy of unregulated free-market capitalism. Coupled with the information technology revolution, this created a techno-winner-takes-all economy—leading to a second Gilded Age of unsustainable inequality and extreme political polarization. In the last 50 years, the economy “boomed” for some while leaving the majority of America’s workers behind. Kurz concludes that only regulated capitalism can support democracy so that the benefits of technology are more equally shared and no person’s livelihood is destroyed to enable others to be enriched. To save democracy, he proposes a “restoration-of-livelihood” policy, offering firms managerial flexibility to maintain rising productivity while ensuring that technology does not destroy the livelihood of others.

CYBER-Betrug - Korrespondenzen mit PHANTOMEN

Sie schreiben liebevoll.
Sie versprechen Nähe. Sie verlangen nur eines: Vertrauen. Was als harmlose Online-Bekanntschaft beginnt, entwickelt sich zu einem perfiden Spiel aus Erotik, Hoffnung und gezielter Manipulation. Dieses Buch dokumentiert reale Korrespondenzen mit angeblichen Frauen aus dem Ausland - samt Liebesbeteuerungen, sexuellen Fantasien, Reiseversprechen und immer neuen Vorwänden für Geldforderungen. Der Autor lässt die Täter selbst sprechen. Ohne Beschönigung. Ohne Schutzbehauptungen. Ohne Romantisierung. Schritt für Schritt wird sichtbar, wie organisierte Betrugsnetzwerke arbeiten: mit vorgefertigten Texten, austauschbaren Identitäten, emotionalem Druck und exakt kalkulierten Eskalationsstufen - bis zur finalen Forderung nach Geld. Dieses Buch ist kein Roman. Es ist ein Reality-Thriller. Und eine Warnung. Wer glaubt, ihm könne das nicht passieren, ist die ideale Zielperson.
