Social networks have created a plethora of problems regarding privacy and the protection of personal data. The use of social networks has become a key concern of legal scholars, policy-makers and the operators as well as users of those social networks. This pathbreaking book highlights the importance of privacy in the context of today's new electronic communication technologies as it presents conflicting claims to protect national and international security, the freedom of the Internet and economic considerations. Using the New Haven School of Jurisprudence's intellectual framework, the author presents the applicable law on privacy and social media in international and comparative perspective, focusing on the United States, the European Union and its General Data Protection Regulation of 2018 as well as Germany, the United Kingdom and Latin America. The book appraises the law in place, discusses alternatives and presents recommendations in pursuit of a public order of human dignity.
Genehmigungsvorbehalte durchziehen das gesamte offentliche Recht und finden eine deutlich weitere Verbreitung, als es die gangige Differenzierung zwischen praventiven und repressiven Verboten mit Erlaubnisvorbehalt suggeriert. Meinhard Schroder entfaltet das Genehmigungsverwaltungsrecht als eine Querschnittsmaterie des offentlichen Rechts aus verwaltungs-, verfassungs- und europarechtlicher Perspektive. Ausgehend von einer Bestandsaufnahme, die die Vielfalt der Funktionen von Genehmigungsvorbehalten im geltenden Recht zeigt und ihre gesetzgeberische Ausgestaltung analysiert, werden die verfassungs- und europarechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen fur das Genehmigungsverwaltungsrecht ermittelt und eine neue Systematisierung vorgenommen. Die dabei gewonnenen Erkenntnisse bilden die Basis dafur, die gesetzgeberischen Handlungsoptionen im Bereich des Genehmigungsverwaltungsrechts auszuloten und auch rechtspolitische Impulse namentlich fur die "Kodifikationsfrage" zu geben.
Der dritte Band der Reihe "Bibliothek des Eigentums" regt dazu an, über das Grundthema Eigentum nachzudenken: seine Versprechungen und Gefährdungen.

A comparative and empirical analysis of proportionality in the case law of six constitutional and supreme courts.
