Responsabilidad civil por vulneración del derecho al honor en las redes sociales


Book Description

Durante los últimos años hemos asistido a la proliferación de mensajes en las redes sociales en los que se vulnera de forma sistemática el derecho al honor de algunas personas. A pesar de que haya quien piense que en las redes sociales vale todo, son muchos los tribunales que se han ido pronunciando condenando a los autores de estos mensajes tanto en el ámbito penal como en el civil. Esta monografía se centra en un análisis crítico sobre la responsabilidad civil cuando se produce la vulneración del derecho al honor en este ámbito. Se inicia la monografía con un estudio del derecho al honor así como su protección constitucional, para continuar con el análisis de los derechos a la libertad de información y expresión y sus límites. Especial atención a lo largo de todo el trabajo se presta a la responsabilidad civil que tendrá cada uno de los agentes que participan en la posible vulneración. Así se analiza la posible responsabilidad en la que pueden incurrir redes sociales como Twitter o Facebook y la de los propios usuarios, entre los que se incluyen los autores directos de los mensajes, aquellos que los comparten, los community manager y los que lo realizan de manera anónima. Igualmente se pretende establecer, de una manera lo más objetiva posible, cómo ha de realizarse la valoración del daño para el caso en el que se produzca la vulneración del derecho al honor. Por último, el libro trata también el sistema de reparación del daño para estos casos, en los que las resoluciones judiciales no están siguiendo una línea unitaria, realizando propuestas en base a los últimos medios disponibles.

A Virtue of Disobedience


Book Description

‘I hope that this short thought provoking meditation on rightful responses to injustice will trigger a societal discussion for the conscience and future of liberal democracies.’ Marc Sageman, former CIA officer ‘I find Qureshi’s personal tone profound and loud, and it does what all good works of politics and anti-racism should. It makes visible the most intimate ways white power impacts us, destroy us, and has us dream about our futures.’ Yassir Morsi, author of Radical Skin, Moderate Masks ‘Drawing on an extraordinary range of influences that includes Primo Levi, Tupac Shakur, fourteenth century Islamic jurists and the Qu’ran, Qureshi weaves a moving account of his personal political journey through the horrors of the early 21st century into an inspirational call for racial and political justice and critical Islamic scholarship.’ Matthew Carr, author of Blood & Faith: The Purging of Muslim Spain In this new work of political philosophy, Asim Qureshi reflects on injustice he sees in the world around him. Covering issues from torture and extrajudicial killings, to racism and discrimination, A Virtue of Disobedience takes the reader on a journey through the history of oppression, and begins a conversation about how previous acts of resistance and disobedience, through faith and virtue, can be liberating in the range of contemporary issues communities face today.

Nomadic Subjects


Book Description

For more than fifteen years, Nomadic Subjects has guided discourse in continental philosophy and feminist theory, exploring the constitution of contemporary subjectivity, especially the concept of difference within European philosophy and political theory. Rosi Braidotti's creative style vividly renders a productive crisis of modernity. From a feminist perspective, she recasts embodiment, sexual difference, and complex concepts through relations to technology, historical events, and popular culture. This thoroughly revised and expanded edition retains all but two of Braidotti's original essays, including her investigations into epistemology's relation to the "woman question;" feminism and biomedical ethics; European feminism; and the possible relations between American feminism and European politics and philosophy. A new piece integrates Deleuze and Guattari's concept of the "becoming-minoritarian" more deeply into modern democratic thought, and a chapter on methodology explains Braidotti's methods while engaging with her critics. A new introduction muses on Braidotti's provocative legacy.
