Abstract:

The Handbook of Privacy Studies is the first book in the world that brings together several disciplinary perspectives on privacy, such as the legal, ethical, medical, informatics and anthropological perspective. Privacy is in the news almost every day: mass surveillance by intelligence agencies, the use of social media data for commercial profit and political microtargeting, password hacks and identity theft, new data protection regimes, questionable reuse of medical data, and concerns about how algorithms shape the way we think and decide. This book offers interdisciplinary background informa

Abstract:

Despite the severity of the global economic crisis and the widespread aversion towards austerity policies, neoliberalism remains the dominant mode of economic governance in the world. What makes neoliberalism such a resilient mode of economic and political governance? How does neoliberalism effectively reproduce itself in the face of popular opposition? States of Discipline offers an answer to these questions by highlighting the ways in which today’s neoliberalism reinforces and relies upon coercive practices that marginalize, discipline and control social groups. Such practices range from the

Abstract:

Chapter 8 focuses on schools. Traditionally schools sought to socialize children into the values they would need to have to be future citizens. More recently schools have been seen as institutions whose mission is skill acquisition, and the value socialization role has been minimized. Studies make clear that schools do shape values and that the type of classroom and school authority that children experience shapes the degree to which their initial consensual or coercive orientations toward rules strengthen or decline. If children experience transparency in the rules implemented by authorities

There has been a turn in human rights scholarship from a top-down focus on laws, institutions, courts, and elite actors towards a more bottom-up focus on civil society activists, advocacy groups, affected communities, and social movements.

Abstract:

The Etherized Wife provides a comprehensive examination of the evolution of sex therapy through the prism of gender. The book makes the argument that in sex therapy, like other domains of life in which men set the standard of normality, women have been judged normal to the degree they match men’s expectations. What is particularly striking about this bias is that it contradicts therapists’ overt identification with feminism and the battle against women’s inequality. To support these claims, Leslie Margolin maps a series of case studies drawn from the discipline’s own literature—the articles an

Abstract:

This book queries from three different angles what it means to speak of Homeric poetry together with the word “text.” Scholarship from outside the discipline of classical studies on the relationship between orality and textuality motivates and undergirds the project. Part I uses work in linguistic anthropology on oral texts and oral intertextuality to illuminate both the verbal and oratorical landscapes our Homeric poets fashion in their epics and what the poets were striving to do when they performed. Looking to folkloristics, Part II examines modern instances of the textualization of an oral

Abstract:

This chapter argues that systems of government suppression and surveillance of written and vocal expression were present in Britain before, as well as after, the French Revolution and war with France. The chapter rebalances dominant accounts in Romantic studies of a small coterie of radical writers and poets by examining how suppression was embedded at a provincial and regional level, where enforcement agencies and legal authorities enjoyed a large degree of autonomy. Surveillance sometimes involved the use of directed informants (spies), typically persons holding local minor public offices. T

Abstract:

The United States Supreme Court is commonly thought to be an institution far removed from American public opinion. Yet nearly two-thirds of modern Supreme Court decisions reflect popular attitudes. Comparing over 500 Supreme Court decisions with timely nationwide poll questions since the mid-1930s, Thomas R. Marshall shows that most Supreme Court decisions agree with poll majorities or pluralities across time and across issues and often represent Americans’ views to the same degree as federal policymakers.

Abstract:

This book is devoted to the Boards of Appeal of the EU agencies. While EU agencies are a diverse group, one subcategory among them has been granted the power to adopt binding decisions. Those agencies have also been established with an organizationally separate administrative review body, a Board of Appeal (BoA). In theory, these BoAs have a dual function, that is filtering cases before they end up before the courts and providing parties with expert review of scientifically or technically complex decisions. Despite this common function, the BoAs of different EU agencies remain heterogenous in

Abstract:

This chapter considers the history of comparative law. The birth of comparative law as a discipline can be traced back to the year 1900, when the Congrès International de Droit Comparé in Paris raised it above the level of singular, disparate, albeit remarkable studies and treatises to a collective, concerted venture guided by theories, methods, and projects. Before 1900 there was little interest in systematic legal comparison. Comparative law was marked, in the Western comparative community, by a significant inferiority syndrome.

Learning from Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress—which was foundational literature in Anglican mission stations—converts engaged in radical acts of self-editing. They disavowed kin relationships, disposed of their possessions, and confessed their sins without regard to propriety. Other Christians thought them a menace to the whole social order.

Abstract:

Recent years have witnessed an emergence of entrepreneurship research in mainstream economics, some of which relates to legal institutions. The current literature exhibits considerable methodological disarray, however. There is no agreed definition for entrepreneurship — for example, whether innovation is a necessary element or whether self-employment suffices, or whether self-employment and ownership of a small business firm are equally entrepreneurial. Likewise, there is often no clear definition of, and distinction among, various social institutions. This makes it difficult to compare and e
