While the very existence of global literary studies as an institutionalised field is not yet fully established, the global turn in various disciplines in the humanities and the social sciences has been gaining traction in recent years. This book aims to contribute to the field of global literary studies with a more inclusive and decentralising approach. Specifically, it responds to a double demand: the need for expanding openness to other ways of seeing the global literary space by including multiple literary and cultural traditions and other interdisciplinary perspectives in the discussion, and the need for conceptual models and different case studies that will help develop a global approach in four key avenues of research: global translation flows and translation policies, the post-1989 novel as a global form, global literary environments, and a global perspective on film and cinema history. Gathering contributions from international scholars with expertise in various areas of research, the volume is structured around five target concepts: space, scale, time, connectivity, and agency. We also take gender and LGBTQ+ perspectives, as well as a digital approach.
Today, consent is a fundamental concept in the European legal framework on data protection. The analysis of the historical and theoretical context carried out in this book reveals that consent was not an intrinsic notion in the birth of data protection. The concept of consent was included in data protection legislation in order to enhance the role of the data subject in the data protection arena, and to allow the data subject to have more control over the collection and processing of his/her personal information. This book examines the concept of consent and its requirements in the Data Protection Directive, taking into account contemporary considerations on bioethics and medical ethics, as well as recent developments in the framework of the review of the Directive. It further studies issues of consent in electronic communications, carrying out an analysis of the consent-related provisions of the ePrivacy Directive.

Big Data ist ein Phänomen der Digitalisierung, bei dem sehr große Datenmengen zu Wahrscheinlichkeitsaussagen genutzt werden. Die Nutzungsmöglichkeiten reichen von der Verbrechensprävention über die Autoindustrie bis hin zur Gesundheitsforschung. Das von der Bundesregierung geförderte Großforschungsprojekt ABIDA (Assessing Big Data) hat es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht, den diversen Problemen von Big Data aus der Sicht verschiedenster Wissenschaftsdisziplinen nachzugehen. Erste Forschungsergebnisse finden sich in den hier erstmals veröffentlichten Dossiers.
