The Ethics of Consent
We borrow and lend possessions, sign up to social networking sites, agree to sexual advances, and undergo medical procedures—all by giving consent. Without consent, these acts would be rights violations. With it, they can be made permissible. Consequently, questions about consent are controversial and ethically fraught. The Ethics of Consent is a clear and much-needed introduction to this fundamental topic. In Part I, the authors examine conceptual and theoretical questions surrounding consent, providing an accessible overview of topics such as validity, competence, the informational requirements for consent, coercion, manipulation, and deception. In Part II they examine consent to medical...
Sentencing and Artificial Intelligence
This book is the first collective work devoted exclusively to the ethical and penal theoretical considerations of the use of artificial intelligence at sentencing. Jesper Ryberg and Julian V. Roberts bring together leading experts in the field to investigate to what extent, and under which conditions, justice and the social good may be promoted by allocating parts of the most important task of the criminal court--that of determining legal punishment--to computerized sentencing algorithms.
Surveillance Law, Data Retention and Human Rights
This book analyses the compatibility of data retention in the UK with the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The increase in the use of modern technology has led to an explosion of generated data and, with that, a greater interest from law enforcement and intelligence agencies. In the early 2000s, data retention laws were introduced into the UK, and across the European Union (EU). This was met by domestic challenges before national courts, until a seminal ruling by the Court of Justice in the European Union (CJEU) ruled that indiscriminate data retention was incompatible with EU law. Since then, however, the CJEU has revised its position and made certain concessions, particularly un...
The Routledge Handbook of the Ethics of Consent
While the importance of consent has been discussed widely over the last few decades, interest in its study has received renewed attention in recent years, particularly regarding medical treatment, clinical research and sexual acts. The Routledge Handbook of the Ethics of Consent is an outstanding reference source to this exciting subject and the first collection of its kind. Comprising over thirty chapters by a team of international contributors, the Handbook is divided into five main parts: • General questions • Normative ethics • Legal theory • Medical ethics • Political philosophy. Within these sections central issues, debates and problems are examined, including: the nature and...
Critical Reflections on the EUs Data Protection Regime
This book brings together leading academics working on data protection law in the EU to analyse the most notable developments, and the most significant changes, which have occurred during the first 5 years of the GDPR. The book includes contributions analysing the efficacy of the Regulation's consent-based model, the struggle to regulate AdTech using the provisions of the GDPR, the controversy surrounding US-EU data sharing and the interaction of the Regulation with EU Fundamental Rights and other secondary laws regulating data. The book is unique in setting out to record a period of rapid development and significant challenge for EU law through its examination of these episodes in the...
Data Protection, Privacy and Artificial Intelligence, Volume 17
This book examines the discourse and developments surrounding privacy and data protection in the digital realm, featuring papers and discussions from the 2024 CPDP.ai international conference. The question of governance-whether to lead or be led-has never been more relevant. Thus, the book not only addresses privacy and data protection, but also highlights issues related to the governance of artificial intelligence and the regulatory changes introduced by the EU AI Act. The book features comprehensive discussions on the adequacy and effectiveness of the governance mechanisms established by the EU AI Act, particularly emphasising standardisation, co-regulation, and human oversight, while also...

Semantic Network Analysis
This books describes a number of techniques that have been developed to facilitate Semantic Network Analysis. It describes techniques to automatically extract networks using co-occurrence, grammatical analysis, and sentiment analysis using machine learning. Additionally, it describes techniques to represent the extracted semantic networks and background knowledge about the actors and issues in the network, using Semantic Web techniques to deal with multiple issue categorisations and political roles and functions that shift over time. It shows how this combined network of message content and background knowledge can be queried and visualized to make it easy to answer a variety of research questions. Finally, this book describes the AmCAT infrastructure and iNet coding program for that have been developed to facilitate managing large automatic and manual content analysis projects.
Minding Minors Wandering the Web: Regulating Online Child Safety
Ensuring online safety has become a topic on the regulatory agenda in many Western societies. However, regulating for online safety is far from easy, due to the wide variety of national and international, private and public actors and stakeholders that are involved. When regulating online risks for children it is important to strike the right balance between protection against harms on the one hand and safeguarding their fundamental freedoms and rights on the other. The authors in this book attempt to grapple with precisely this theme: striking the right balance between ensuring safety for children on the internet while at the same time enabling them to experiment, to learn, to enrich their lives, to acquire skills and to have fun using this global network. The authors come from various scientific disciplines, ranging from law to social science and from media studies to philosophy. This means that the book provides the reader with both empirical and theoretical/conceptual chapters and sheds a multi-disciplinary light on the complex topic of regulating online safety for children.
