Abstract

"The internet was designed to be a kind of free-speech paradise, but a lot of the material on it turned out to incite violence, spread untruth, and promote hate. Over the years, three American behemoths--Facebook, YouTube and Twitter--became the way most of the world experiences the internet, and therefore the conveyors of much of its disturbing material. What should be done about this enormous problem? Should the giant social media platforms police the content themselves, as is the norm in the U.S., or should governments and international organizations regulate the internet, as is the call in parts of Europe? How do we keep from helping authoritarian regimes to censor all criticisms of themselves? David Kaye, who serves as the United Nations' special rapporteur on free expression, has been at the center of the discussions of these issues for years. He takes us behind the scenes, from Facebook's "mini-legislative" meetings, to the European Commission's closed-door negotiations, and introduces us to journalists, activists, and content moderators whose stories bring clarity and urgency to the topic of censorship. Speech Police is the most comprehensive and insightful treatment of the subject thus far, and reminds us of the importance of maintaining the internet's original commitment to free speech, free of any company's or government's absolute control, while finding ways to modulate its worst aspects." -- from publisher's web site.

Abstract

La liberté d’expression du travailleur est une notion aux contours diffus, qu’il n’est pas toujours facile d’appréhender. Selon les circonstances, la position, les propos ou encore le support par lequel elle s’exprime, celle-ci peut être appréciée de manières très différentes. Dans cet ouvrage, Steve Gilson et France Lambinet font le point sur les principes appliqués par la doctrine et la jurisprudence afin d’aider le lecteur à mieux cerner cette question.

Abstract

La communication est partout, sur tous les supports, de la parole à Twitter, en passant par le dessin, la photo ou la vidéo. L’expression est libre, mais quelle est cette liberté et quelles sont ses limites ?Qu'est-ce que la vie privée, l’image, l’honneur, la présomption d’innocence, la dignité humaine, la discrimination, le racisme, le sexisme, la violence, la protection des mineurs, l’objectivité ou la publicité ?L’ouvrage "La liberté d’expression. Pour quoi, pour quoi, jusqu’où ?" explore les règles de contenu applicables par tout qui s’exprime (journaliste professionnel ou non, artiste, publicitaire, blogueur, facebookeur, youtubeur…), qu’il soit un enfant de 13 ans ou un dirigeant d’entreprise, qu’il soit célèbre ou anonyme, qu’il communique un fait, une idée ou une opinion, quels que soient le sujet (politique, culture, sport…) et le mode de diffusion (affichage, presse écrite, cinéma, radio, télévision, Internet, réseaux sociaux…).Nourri de nombreux exemples réels ou fictifs, l’ouvrage se veut résolument pratique et didactique, au profit du plus large public. Il vise à promouvoir une vraie liberté d’expression pour tous et à développer une véritable éducation aux médias afin de nourrir l’esprit critique de chacun.

Abstract

This collection investigates the sharpening conflict between the nation state and the internet through a multidisciplinary lens. It challenges the idea of an inherently global internet by examining its increasing territorial fragmentation and, conversely, the notion that for states online law and order is business as usual. Cyberborders based on national law are not just erected around China's online community. Cultural, political and economic forces, as reflected in national or regional norms, have also incentivised virtual borders in the West. The nation state is asserting itself. Yet, there are also signs of the receding role of the state in favour of corporations wielding influence through de-facto control over content and technology. This volume contributes to the online governance debate by joining ideas from law, politics and human geography to explore internet jurisdiction and its overlap with topics such as freedom of expression, free trade, democracy, identity and cartographic maps.

Abstract

La quatrième de couverture indique : "Après l'exceptionnalisme français et américain, ont peu à peu émergé dans la doctrine les notions d'exceptionnalisme chinois, indien, islamique, et plus récemment, africain et même européen. L'exceptionnalisme, opposé par certains pour se préserver de contraintes internationales auxquelles ils n'adhèrent pas, ou avec des réserves, pousse chaque Etat à s'interroger sur son identité, sur ce qui le démarquerait des autres et en ferait également une exception. L'un des principaux objectifs des réflexions menées à travers cet ouvrage a été de mieux cerner ce que l'on entendait par exceptionnalisme : Est-ce un synonyme de l'identité ? Est-ce un particularisme ? Quel rapport avec le relativisme culturel permanent ? [...]"

Abstract

The Social Dynamics of Open Data is a collection of peer reviewed papers presented at the 2nd Open Data Research Symposium (ODRS) held in Madrid, Spain, on 5 October 2016. Research is critical to developing a more rigorous and fine-combed analysis not only of why open data is valuable, but how it is valuable and under what specific conditions. The objective of the Open Data Research Symposium and the subsequent collection of chapters published here is to build such a stronger evidence base. This base is essential to understanding what open data's impacts have been to date, and how positive impacts can be enabled and amplified. Consequently, common to the majority of chapters in this collection is the attempt by the authors to draw on existing scientific theories, and to apply them to open data to better explain the socially embedded dynamics that account for open data's successes and failures in contributing to a more equitable and just society.

Abstract

Talent Management (TM) is an issue of critical importance for today's senior managers. Employers acknowledge that an engaged, skilled and motivated workforce is key to achieving growth and competitive advantage. Organizations are hiring TM officers and implementing TM strategies and programs to attract and retain the best employees. Yet many organizations still find it difficult to develop a coherent and successful TM approach. Academic research does not give much support in finding the right solutions: despite the enormous expansion of research on the topic, ambiguity about definitions and conceptual boundaries remains. Moreover, there is little knowledge about the nature of TM in practice and how it evolves over time. Talent Management in Practice offers an integrated and contextualized framework that addresses both the nature of TM in organizations and its ever-changing dynamics. The approach is based, on the one hand, upon lessons learned from previous empirical research on TM, and on the other hand, upon established theoretical frameworks from related academic fields. The result is a unique bridge between theory and TM in practice. This volume develops a model that can guide TM researchers in their future research, and since it is presented in an accessible and jargon-free format, it provides a touchstone for managers and practitioners as they implement and improve their TM approaches.
