Der Band fragt nach der Rolle des Körpers im Recht. Vertreter:innen der Philosophie, Theologie und Rechtswissenschaft untersuchen ein vielseitiges und komplexes Spektrum an Fragen, die sich aus dem Verhältnis der Begriffe „Recht" und „Körper" ergeben. In welcher rechtlichen Gestalt tritt ein (menschliches) Rechtssubjekt als Körper auf? Wie wird seine Körperlichkeit vom Recht erfasst, geschützt und normativ bestimmt und gestaltet? Was unterscheidet aus einer rechtlichen Perspektive den menschlichen vom tierischen Körper? Kann der menschliche Körper als Eigentum verstanden werden oder gehorcht er einer fundamental anderen Logik? The volume asks about the role of the body in law. Representatives of philosophy, theology, and jurisprudence examine the physical, material, or natural (pre-)conditions of law, which law does not cover or covers only to a degree.

Due to rapid developments in the communication sector, the right to privacy faces new challenges. The increasing digitization and internationalization of communication processes have raised a number of issues, and lead to conflicts wherever national legal systems and moral concepts collide. Particularly in the areas of data protection and liability of online service providers, universal approaches are required. This title presents positions of specialists in Europe, Australia, the US and Canada which contribute to the international dialogue and thereby offer a starting point for a sustainable policy for the protection of privacy rights Infolge der rasanten Entwicklungen im Kommunikationsbereich, steht das Recht auf Privatsphäre vor immer neuen Herausforderungen. Die zunehmende Digitalisierung und Internationalisierung von Kommunikationsprozessen werfen zahlreiche Fragen auf und führen dort zu Konflikten, wo nationale Rechtsordnungen und Wertvorstellungen aufeinander prallen. Insbesondere im Bereich des Datenschutzes und der Frage nach der Haftung von Online-Dienstanbietern sind universelle Lösungsansätze gefragt. Im vorliegenden Werk stellen sich ExpertInnen aus Europa, Australien, USA und Kanada einem internationalen Dialog, der zumindest Impulse für einen nachhaltigen Schutz des Rechts auf Privatsphäre geben soll.

Today we consider privacy a right to be protected. But in eighteenth-century England, privacy was seen as a problem, even a threat. Women reading alone and people hiding their true thoughts from one another in conversation generated fears of uncontrollable fantasies and profound anxieties about insincerity. In Privacy, Patricia Meyer Spacks explores eighteenth-century concerns about privacy and the strategies people developed to avoid public scrutiny and social pressure. She examines, for instance, the way people hid behind common rules of etiquette to mask their innermost feelings and how, in fact, people were taught to employ such devices. She considers the erotic overtones that privacy aroused in its suppression of deeper desires. And perhaps most important, she explores the idea of privacy as a societal threat-one that bred pretense and hypocrisy in its practitioners. Through inspired readings of novels by Defoe, Richardson, Fielding, and Sterne, along with a penetrating glimpse into diaries, autobiographies, poems, and works of pornography written during the period, Spacks ultimately shows how writers charted the imaginative possibilities of privacy and its social repercussions. Finely nuanced and elegantly conceived, Spacks's new work will fascinate anyone who has relished concealment or mourned its recent demise.
