Autor Dr Jacob Rowbottom
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 mar 2024
The second edition of this groundbreaking book looks at the key debates and issues in media law, a fast-developing area of scholarship that raises many high-profile and controversial questions.Recent issues include the privacy rights of public figures, the use of legal tools to silence critics, the right to access information held by public bodies, the political power of media owners, the future of public service broadcasting and the regulation of the digital media.

Recenzii

Rowbottom's book is both welcome and timely. It is also, without doubt, a tour de force that not only significantly contributes to, but also moves forward, the media law canon... Rowbottom has managed to strike a very difficult balance: this book is accessible to a wide range of audiences, yet it provides a depth of analysis and insight that will make it invaluable to media law scholars, practitioners and students.
The book gives the student reader a thorough and detailed account of the media law landscape. It offers up a wide-ranging and perceptive theoretical backdrop to debates on freedom of the individual versus freedom of the press, the thorny issue of privacy and where privacy rights lie, as well as incisive insights into topics as disparate as contempt, open justice and The book capably takes in its stride recent developments in media law and journalism since the Leveson Inquiry and how the press has adapted to a new ethical and regulatory framework and examines whether there has indeed a been a 'chilling effect' on the media since thew hacking scandal.A vigorous and challenging book, it is a must for students of media law and those interested in the new media landscape.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

Media law is a fast-developing area of scholarship that raises many high-profile and controversial questions. Recent issues include the use of privacy injunctions, the regulation of the press, the political power of media moguls, mass leaks of government information, and the responsibility of the digital media to prevent the spread of extreme content and fake news. This study looks at these issues and the key debates in media law. The book includes chapters examining the protection of personal rights to reputation and privacy, the administration of justice, the role of government censorship, the protection of the newsgathering process, the regulation of the media and the impact of digital communications. The analysis is grounded in an account of media freedom that looks at the important democratic functions performed by the media and journalism. Examining various key themes, this study shows how those functions continue to evolve in a changing political culture and also how the media are subject to a range of legal and informal constraints. The book asks whether the law strikes the right balance in protecting media freedom while preventing the abuse of media power, and considers the future of media law in the digital era. It is essential reading for students and scholars of media law alike.
