Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The state, that must eradicate all feelings of insecurity, even potential ones, has been caught in a spiral of exception, suspicion and oppression that may lead to a complete disappearance of liberties." —Mireille Delmas Marty, Libertés et sûreté dans un monde dangereux, 2010 This book will examine the security/freedom duo in space and time with regards to electronic communications and technologies used in social control. It will follow a diachronic path from the relative balance between philosophy and human rights, very dear to Western civilization (at the end of the 20th Century), to the current situation, where there seems to be less freedom in terms of security to the point that some scholars have wondered whether privacy should be redefined in this era. The actors involved (the Western states, digital firms, human rights organizations etc.) have seen their roles impact the legal and political science fields.

Download or read book Crypto Politics written by Linda Monsees and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-19 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines current debates about the politics of technology and the future of democratic practices in the digital era. The volume centres on the debates on digital encryption in Germany and the USA, during the aftermath of Edward Snowden’s leaks, which revolved around the value of privacy and the legitimacy of surveillance practices. Using a discourse analysis of mass media and specialist debates, it shows how these are closely interlinked with technological controversies and how, as a result, contestation emerges not within one public sphere but within multiple expert circles. The book develops the notion of ‘publicness’ in order to grasp the political significance of these controversies, thereby making an innovative contribution to Critical Security Studies by introducing digital encryption as an important site for understanding the broader debates on cyber security and surveillance. This book will be of much interest to students of critical security studies, science and technology studies, and International Relations.

As organisations rush to adopt Cloud Computing at a rate faster than originally projected, it is safe to predict that, over the coming years, Cloud Computing will have major impacts, not only on the way we conduct science and research, but also on the quality of our daily human lives. Computation research, education, and business communities have been exploring the potential benefits of Cloud Computing and the changes these imply. Experts have predicted that the move to the cloud will alter significantly the content of IT jobs, with cloud clients needing fewer hands-on skills and more skills that administer and manage information. Bill Gates was recently quoted: "How you gather, manage, and use information will determine whether you win or lose." Cloud Computing impacts will be broad and pervasive, applying to public and private institutions alike.

Book excerpt: Legal Issues of Digitalisation, Robotization and Cyber Security in the Light of EU Law By Nadežda Šišková, (ed.) The current extremely rapid and dynamic development of modern technologies and the unprecedented degree of their integration into the everyday life of every person are radically changing the previous modus vivendi in the society. The emergence of the Internet and the continuous development of digital technologies have brought into fore a number of new legal problems and issues that require a timely solution and proper and effective legal regulation by the EU as one of the leading regulators of the digital world. The technological developments have opened a new “window” to the borderless world of the Internet, giving a person an opportunity to exercise his/her fundamental rights at a new and unprecedented level. This unique book thus presents the key information and solves the related problems concerning the legal regulation of the usage of modern technologies in everyday life. The book is conceived in a form of a collective monograph prepared by an international team of renowned researchers from famous European Universities (Heidelberg University, Palacky University in Olomouc, Tallinn University of Technology, Comenius University in Bratislava and Shevchenko University in Kyiv) and scientific legal societies as well as top-level experts from practice. This team is representing the countries with the highest level of integration of modern technologies (Estonia, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia) or has a unique experience with provision of cyber security in the extreme conditions. The book creates a main output from the research project with the title “The EU and the Challenges of Modern Society (legal issues of digitalization, robotization, cyber security and prevention of hybrid threats)” granted by the EACEA in the category of Jean Monnet network. The publication of the book is supported by the financial subsidy in the amount of 3 000 Euro, sent by Palacky University to the Publisher (Intersentia).

Download or read book Environmental Social and Governance ESG Laws Regulations and Practices in the Digital Era written by Peter Yeoh and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2022-01-13 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past two decades, the traditional role of corporate governance has been greatly augmented and transformed by increased attention to the importance of social inclusion in business decisions and of environmental impacts of business activities, giving rise to the now well-understood linkage among environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles. This book is the first to thoroughly analyze the ESG phenomenon as a tripartite corporate purpose model and the profusion of laws and regulations it continues to engender. Drawing on perspectives from law, economics, and business management, the book focuses on those ESG challenges that are most likely to impact companies in the coming years. The author discusses such aspects of ESG law, regulation, and practice as the following: impact of digitalization on ESG practices; competing ESG perspectives and whether there are signs of convergence toward a more universal model; impact of corporate ownership patterns; review of hard and soft law responses; corporate control under COVID-19 pandemic conditions; workplace and workforce transformations; various ESG-related corporate scandals and controversies; ESG regulatory responses from international entities such as the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO); and seminal ESG cases in various business sectors. The emphasis throughout is on developments in the European Union, the United States, and the United Kingdom, both because it is in those jurisdictions that ESG challenges have been and are most fully dealt with and because these economies taken together are likely to continue exerting dominating influence across the world. What this book says about ESG provides pertinent insights and guidance for those seeking a better understanding of ESG practices and underlying theories across major economies. With essential information and guidance for ESG law practitioners, policymakers, and academicians, the book gives clarity and guidance as to who should lead the charge for ESG practices in business enterprises in major jurisdictional settings. Its detailed coverage of best ESG practices will be welcomed by those conducting their business enterprises within approved regulatory perimeters.
