Families and New Media
The open access edited volume addresses children’s rights and their ability to act in the digital world. The focus is on the position of children as subjects with their own rights and developing capacities. Their consideration by parents, courts and legislators is critically examined. Aspects of digital parenting, especially educational practices and strategies in the context of social media, are analyzed with regard to the tension between protection and participation of children. The edited volume brings debates on privacy and data protection together with those from tort, family and intellectual property law, while also examining the role of families and children in the regulation of data and digital economies, especially online platforms. Legal reflections from Germany, Israel, Portugal and the United States of America are complemented by perspectives from media studies, political science, educational science and sociology of law.

From a legal perspective, the volume offers a much-needed evaluation of regulatory needs and lawmakers’ answers in...
Far From the Truth
Information and knowledge were essential tools of early modern Europe’s global ambitions. This volume addresses a key concern that emerged as the competition for geopolitical influence increased: how could information from afar be trusted when there was no obvious strategy for verification? How did notions of doubt develop in relation to intercultural encounters? Who were those in the position to use misinformation in their favour, and how did this affect trust? How, in other words, did distance affect credibility, and which intellectual and epistemological strategies did early modern Europe devise to cope with this problem? The movement of information, and its transformations in the proce...

Reimagining Legal Pluralism in Africa
This collection challenges the prevailing conflict of laws approach to the interaction of state and indigenous legal systems. It introduces adaptive legal pluralism as an alternative framework that emphasises dialogue and engagement between these legal systems. By exploring a dialogic approach to legal pluralism, the authors shed light on how it can effectively address the challenges stemming from the colonial imposition of industrial legal systems on Africa’s agrarian political economies.
Global Reflections on Children’s Rights and the Law
Thirty years after the adoption of the UN Convention of the Rights of the Child, this book provides diverse perspectives from countries and regions across the globe on its implementation, critique and potential for reform. The book revolves around key issues including progress in implementing the CRC worldwide; how to include children in legal proceedings; how to uphold children’s various civil rights; how to best assist children at risk; and discussions surrounding children’s identity rights in a changing familial order. Discussion of the CRC is both compelling and polarizing and the book portrays the enthusiasm around these topics through contrasting and comparative opinions on a range of topics. The work provides varying perspectives from many different countries and regions, offering a wealth of insight on topics that will be of significant interest to scholars and practitioners working in the areas of children’s rights and justice.
Subjectivity, Citizenship and Belonging in Law
This collection of articles critically examines legal subjectivity and ideas of citizenship inherent in legal thought. The chapters offer a novel perspective on current debates in this area by exploring the connections between public and political issues as they intersect with more intimate sets of relations and private identities. Covering issues as diverse as autonomy, vulnerability and care, family and work, immigration control, the institution of speech, and the electorate and the right to vote, they provide a broader canvas upon which to comprehend more complex notions of citizenship, personhood, identity and belonging in law, in their various ramifications.
Technik - Recht - Raum
Die Ubiquitat des Kommunikationsraums "Cyberspace" erschwert bis heute dessen raumordnungsrechtliche Einordnung und einheitliche Regulierung. Das Recht tut sich schwer mit der Normierung des technisch konstituierten "virtuellen Raums". Aber warum? Am Beispiel des Cyberspace analysiert Camilla S. Haake Dynamiken der Entwicklung von Recht und Technik und konzentriert sich dabei v.a. auf die grenzuberschreitende Dimension und das Verhaltnis von Volkerrecht und Technik. Die Autorin zeigt Ansatze einer volkerrechtlichen Regulierung von Aktivitaten im Cyberspace de lege lata und de lege ferenda auf und identifiziert Veranderungen, denen die bekannten volkerrechtlichen Werkzeuge und Prozesse der Normsetzung und -durchsetzung aufgrund des Einflusses des technischen Wandels unterworfen sind. Umgekehrt analysiert sie jedoch ebenso die innovationshemmende bzw. -fordernde Wirkung unterschiedlicher Regelungsmechanismen.
