Privacy Online

by Sabine Trepte Leonard Reinecke

Communications and personal information that are posted online are usually accessible to a vast number of people. Yet when personal data exist online, they may be searched, reproduced and mined by advertisers, merchants, service providers or even stalkers. Many users know what may happen to their information, while at the same time they act as though their data are private or intimate. They expect their privacy will not be infringed while they willingly share personal information with the world via social network sites, blogs, and in online communities. The chapters collected by Trepte and Reinecke address questions arising from this disparity that has often been referred to as the privacy paradox. Works by renowned researchers from various disciplines including psychology, communication, sociology, and information science, offer new theoretical models on the functioning of online intimacy and public accessibility, and propose novel ideas on the how and why of online privacy. The contributing authors offer intriguing solutions for some of the most pressing issues and problems in the field of online privacy. They investigate how users abandon privacy to enhance social capital and to generate different kinds of benefits. They argue that trust and authenticity characterize the uses of social network sites. They explore how privacy needs affect users' virtual identities. Ethical issues of privacy online are discussed as well as its gratifications and users' concerns. The contributors of this volume focus on the privacy needs and behaviors of a variety of different groups of social media users such as young adults, older users, and genders. They also examine privacy in the context of particular online services such as social network sites, mobile internet access, online journalism, blogs, and micro-blogs. In sum, this book offers researchers and students working on issues related to internet communication not only a thorough and up-to-date treatment of online privacy and the social web. It also presents a glimpse of the future by exploring emergent issues concerning new technological applications and by suggesting theory-based research agendas that can guide inquiry beyond the current forms of social technologies.

Privat – öffentlich – politisch: Gesellschaftstheorien in feministischer Perspektive (Gesellschaftstheorien und Gender)

by Günter Burkart Diana Cichecki Nina Degele Heike Kahlert

Dieser Band bringt ausgewählte Theorien – Gesellschaftstheorien und einflussreiche soziologische Zeitdiagnosen – in einen Dialog mit der feministischen Debatte zum Spannungsverhältnis von privat und öffentlich.Die Begrifflichkeiten öffentlich und privat sind ein eng mit den Geschlechterverhältnissen assoziiertes Ordnungsprinzip gesellschaftlicher Entwicklung und damit hochpolitisch. Der Fokus dieses Bandes liegt auf der Frage, welche Bedeutung dieser Unterscheidung heute noch zukommt – in einer Zeit, in der viel von Grenzauflösungen die Rede ist und damit oft auch eine Auflösung der beiden Sphären gemeint ist. Es ist ein erster Schritt in Richtung eines zeitdiagnostischen Entwurfs, in dem die Unterscheidung zwischen öffentlich und privat, deren Zusammenhang mit Geschlecht und Gesellschaft und deren politische Brisanz im Zentrum des Interesses stehen. Die Auseinandersetzungen mit etablierten Theorien (u.a. von Arendt, Bourdieu, Foucault, Habermas sowie Kritische Theorie, Postcolonial Theory, Queer Theory) sind ausgerichtet am möglichen Ertrag für eine GeschlechterGesellschaftsTheorie, das heißt, für eine Gesellschaftstheorie, die Geschlechterverhältnisse nicht als empirische Variable, sondern als grundlegende Strukturkategorie behandelt, und die auf Veränderungen, die sich mit dem Bedeutungswandel von privat, öffentlich und politisch einstellen, angemessen reagieren kann.

Private Affairs: Critical Ventures in the Culture of Social Relations (Sexual Cultures #22)

by Phillip Brian Harper

In Private Affairs, Phillip Brian Harper explores the social and cultural significance of the private, proposing that, far from a universal right, privacy is limited by one's racial-and sexual-minority status. Ranging across cinema, literature, sculpture, and lived encounters-from Rodin's The Kiss to Jenny Livingston's Paris is Burning-Private Affairs demonstrates how the very concept of privacy creates personal and sociopolitical hierarchies in contemporary America.

Private Bodies, Public Texts: Race, Gender, and a Cultural Bioethics

by Karla Fc Holloway

In Private Bodies, Public Texts, Karla FC Holloway examines instances where medical issues and information that would usually be seen as intimate, private matters are forced into the public sphere. As she demonstrates, the resulting social dramas often play out on the bodies of women and African Americans. Holloway discusses the spectacle of the Terri Schiavo right-to-die case and the injustice of medical researchers' use of Henrietta Lacks's cell line without her or her family's knowledge or permission. She offers a provocative reading of the Tuskegee syphilis study and a haunting account of the ethical dilemmas that confronted physicians, patients, and families when a hospital became a space for dying rather than healing during Hurricane Katrina; even at that dire moment, race mattered. Private Bodies, Public Texts is a compelling call for a cultural bioethics that attends to the historical and social factors that render some populations more vulnerable than others in medical and legal contexts. Holloway proposes literature as a conceptual anchor for discussions of race, gender, bioethics, and the right to privacy. Literary narratives can accommodate thick description, multiple subjectivities, contradiction, and complexity.

Private Cities: Global and Local Perspectives (Routledge Studies in Human Geography #Vol. 13)

by Georg Glasze Chris Webster Klaus Frantz

For the antagonist, private communities are icons of post-consensus, fragmenting civic society, enclosing and excluding by contractual constitution and sometimes by walls and gates. For others they are simply an efficient new way of organizing urban life. Contributed to, and edited by, an international team of leading authors, this revealing book constructs an interdisciplinary discourse on the global spread of private communities based upon empirical evidence. Case studies from the US, Latin America, the Middle East, Europe and China are used to explore local and global explanations of the phenomenon. Taking an institutionalist approach, this informative textbook for undergraduates, postgraduates, and researchers alike, develops a model in which cities are shaped by the interplay of local and global processes, and evolve at the interface of spontaneous and planned order. It draws together the various themes, propositions and hypotheses in a way that clarifies the questions by different social science perspectives and that poses researchable questions and new agendas.

Private Data and Public Value

by Holly Jarman Luis F. Luna-Reyes

This book investigates the ways inwhich these systems can promote public value by encouraging the disclosure andreuse of privately-held data in ways that support collective values such asenvironmental sustainability. Supported by funding from the National ScienceFoundation, the authors' research team has been working on one such system,designed to enhance consumers ability to access information about thesustainability of the products that they buy and the supply chains that producethem. Pulled by rapidly developing technology and pushed by budget cuts,politicians and public managers are attempting to find ways to increase thepublic value of their actions. Policymakers are increasingly acknowledging thepotential that lies in publicly disclosing more of the data that they hold, aswell as incentivizing individuals and organizations to access, use, and combineit in new ways. Due to technological advances which include smarterphones, better ways to track objects and people as they travel, and moreefficient data processing, it is now possible to build systems which useshared, transparent data in creative ways. The book adds to thecurrent conversation among academics and practitioners about how to promotepublic value through data disclosure, focusing particularly on the roles thatgovernments, businesses and non-profit actors can play in this process, makingit of interest to both scholars and policy-makers.

Private Higher Education and Inequalities in the Global South: Lessons from Africa, Latin America and Asia (Demographic Transformation and Socio-Economic Development #17)

by Etienne Gérard

Based on original findings from research carried out in six low- and middle-income countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America, this book brings together conceptual and empirical analyses of private higher education and social and academic inequality, a topic largely unexplored in the social science literature, particularly on private higher education. Field surveys of different categories of actors in numerous private universities have combined common methods and tools in countries chosen for the differences in their social structures and the characteristics, organization and development of their private higher education systems. Based on these qualitative surveys, combined with available quantitative data on higher education, this book analyzes the production and reproduction of social and academic inequalities in countries as diverse as Argentina, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Senegal and Vietnam. Finally, the historical and social structuringof the private education systems in the selected countries provides the framework for analyses that go beyond the traditional higher education demand/supply and public policy approaches to explore the perspective of the actors – institutional administrators, teaching staff and students.

The Private Life: Our Everyday Self in an Age of Intrusion

by Josh Cohen

With social networking and reality television, self-help columns and daytime talk shows, there's an infinite array of platforms to both expose our deepest thoughts and examine the thoughts of others. In this age of non-stop communication, one's privacy is subject to unrelenting examination, intrusion, and attack from the media, the government, friends, family, and complete strangers.So what are we trying to hide? And what are we trying to find out about others? Practicing psychoanalyst and professor of literature Josh Cohen tackles those questions in his study of privacy and personality, the "most vulnerable and indestructible region of your self." Using Sigmund Freud's theories on identity and the ego as a foundation, Cohen weaves through time and place to study an extensive variety of people who unearthed and revealed the rawest form of their selves. From Adam and Eve to the ballerinas in the hit 2010 film Black Swan, from Hester Prynne to British celebrity Katie Price, Cohen finds Freud's ideas in both fiction and reality alike.Yet even with all the times that we've exposed the inner workings of our psyches, Cohen is sure to emphasize that some part of every individual will always remain hidden. Like Freud once wrote, "The ego is not master in its own house." In a culture that floods our lives with light, how is it that we remain so helplessly in the dark?

Private Life Under Socialism: Love, Intimacy, and Family Change in a Chinese Village, 1949-1999

by Yunxiang Yan

For seven years in the 1970s, the author lived in a village in northeast China as an ordinary farmer. In 1989, he returned to the village as an anthropologist to begin the unparalleled span of eleven years’ fieldwork that has resulted in this book―a comprehensive, vivid, and nuanced account of family change and the transformation of private life in rural China from 1949 to 1999. <p><p> The author’s focus on the personal and the emotional sets this book apart from most studies of the Chinese family. Yan explores private lives to examine areas of family life that have been largely overlooked, such as emotion, desire, intimacy, privacy, conjugality, and individuality. <p><p> He concludes that the past five decades have witnessed a dual transformation of private life: the rise of the private family, within which the private lives of individual women and men are thriving.

Private Management and Public Policy: The Principle of Public Responsibility

by Lee E. Preston James E. Post

Private Management and Public Policy is a landmark work at the intersection of business and society. First published in 1975, it focuses on the management processes that companies use to respond to social issues. The text develops the "principle of public responsibility" as an alternative to the notion that firms have unlimited accountability. And, it presents one of the first systems-based approaches to corporate responsibility, providing theoretical support for business involvement in public policy. Arguably, the book's major contribution is its broad outline of an alternative theory of the firm in society—one that offers the possibility of overcoming traditional public and private dichotomies.

Private Pleasure, Public Plight: Urban Development, Suburban Sprawl, and the Decline of Community

by Hans Kummer

This is a social and cultural analysis of community life in metropolitan areas of three nations--the United States, Sweden, and England. The author focuses on how environment and culture interact to shape human behavior. Despite their many similarities, the three societies offer remarkably contrasting urban forms, and thus provide a unique opportunity for comparative research. The findings suggest goals for urban community development in America that can help regain a sense of human scale and establish more meaningful face-to-face contact among urban dwellers.David Popenoe is professor of sociology at Rutgers University. He has had visiting appointments in the Centre for Environment Studies (London), the University of Stockholm, New York University, and the University of Pennsylvania. Among his other books are: Distributing the Nest: Family Change and Decline in Modern Societies; The Suburban Environment: Sweden and the United States; Neighborhood, City and Metropolis; The Urban Industrial Frontier and a basic text on sociology that will soon appear in its seventh edition.

Private Profits versus Public Policy: The Pharmaceutical Industry and the Canadian State

by Joel Lexchin

The widespread condemnation of drastic price increases on life-saving drugs highlights our growing dependency on and vulnerability to international pharmaceutical conglomerates. However, aren't the interests of the public supposed to supersede the pursuit of private profit?In his new work, Private Profits versus Public Policy, Joel Lexchin addresses this question as he examines how public policy with respect to the pharmaceutical industry has evolved in Canada over the past half century. Although the Canadian government is supposed to regulate the industry to serve the needs of public health, waves of deregulatory reforms and intellectual property rights legislation have shifted the balance of power in favour of these companies' quest for profit. Joel Lexchin offers a series of recommendations to tip the scale back in the public's favour. This enlightening work is the first book that deals exclusively with the pharmaceutical industry in Canada in over thirty years.

Private Property, Freedom, and Order: Social Contract Theories from Hobbes To Rawls

by Mehmet Kanatli

This book looks at how the ideas of freedom, property, and order are expressed in modern social contract theories (SCTs). Drawing on the theories of Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, and Rawls, it studies how notions of freedom promulgated by these SCTs invariably legitimise and defend the private ownership of the means of production. It argues that capitalism’s impact on individual dependence and economic inequality still stems from this model, ultimately working in favour of proprietors. The author highlights the problematic nature of SCTs, which work as ideological mechanisms put forward under the guise of formal equality and formal freedom, by focusing on the historical and social context behind them. From a methodological point of view, the author presents a de-ideologization of the contractarian issue and provides insight into the political ‘layers’ within the discourse of individualism, human nature and morality shaping the outer corners of contractarian theory. An important intervention in the study of SCTs, this volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of political and social theory, sociology, political history, and political philosophy.
