Exploring the evolution of the right to be forgotten, its challenges, and its impact on privacy, reputation, and online expression, this book lays out the current state of the law on the right to be forgotten in Canada and in the international context while addressing the broader theoretical tensions at its core.

What is the right’s impact on free speech and freedom of the press? Together, these...
A expressão da língua inglesa "What's up?" para os nativos significa "Quais são as novidades?", "O que está acontecendo? "O que me conta de novo?" Nossas vidas cotidianas, não há como negar, foram invadidas por vários aplicativos, dentre eles o "WhatsApp", nome inspirado, obviamente, na expressão inglesa que dá título a esta obra. É a nova realidade. Tecnologia em todas as áreas, incluindo a jurídica. Nesta obra, é exatamente esta a nossa proposta, trazer o que está acontecendo, o que vem sendo discutido no Direito, o que há de novo, o que nos desafia neste mundo inundado pela tecnologia. Em 15 capítulos, 38 autores - em coautorias que permitem a multi e a interdisciplinariedade em colaboração internacional - se propõem, em suas respectivas áreas de conhecimento, a compartilhar com os leitores o que há de novo. Assim, ao contrário da resposta usual à pergunta "What's up?" que costuma ser "Nothing special!" ou seja "O de sempre!", neste livro há o novo, o que precisa ser estudado, aprofundado e encaminhado no Direito. Fica aqui o nosso convite à leitura e à busca por soluções.

In Democratic Failures and the Ethics of Democracy, political philosopher Adam Lovett argues that when it comes to democratic ideals, the United States is a failed democracy. Specifically, he contends that American democracy has failed to advance equality and self-rule for its citizens—qualities he identifies as essential components of democracy’s intrinsic value. Drawing on rich empirical research, Lovett applies original philosophical analysis to reveal real-world democratic failures and evaluate their philosophical and ethical consequences. His research locates democratic failures at both the level of political elites and at the level of the masses. At the elite level, elected officia...
