Codifying Cyberspace (eBook, PDF)

Communications Self-Regulation in the Age of Internet Convergence

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Can the Internet regulate itself? Faced with a range of 'harms' and conflicts associated with the new media - from gambling to pornography - many governments have resisted the temptation to regulate, opting instead to encourage media providers to develop codes of conduct and technical measures to regulate themselves.

Codifying Cyberspace looks at media self-regulation in practice, in a variety of countries. It also examines the problems of balancing private censorship against fundamental rights to freedom of expression and privacy for media users. This book is the first full-scale study of self-regulation and codes of conduct in these fast-moving new media sectors and is the result of a three-year Oxford University study funded by the European Commission.
