public broadcasting and european Law a comparative examination of public service obligations in six member states
2008Co-Authors: Irini KatsireaAbstract:Although EU Member States share a tradition of regulating public broadcasting for the public interest, such regulation has been in decline in recent years. It has been challenged by the emergence of commercial television sworn to the market logic, as well as by satellite services and the Internet. EU Law and policy has, under pressure from powerful global forces, abetted that decline. The question thus arises: Do cultural values still matter in European national broadcasting? This important book examines the challenges posed to public service obligations by European Union Media Law and policy. An in-depth analysis of the extent to which six countries (France, Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom) regulate broadcasting for the public interest reveals a range of vulnerability to national political pressures or, alternatively, to the ideology of market sovereignty.The author examines the country of origin principle and the European quota rule of the Television without Frontiers Directive, revealing the influence of European Law on the definition and enforcement of programme requirements, and shows how the case Law of the European Court of Justice encourages deregulation at the national level without offering adequate safeguards at the supranational level in exchange. She asks the question whether the alleged European audiovisual model actually persists; that is, whether broadcasting is still committed to protecting such values as cultural diversity, the safety of minors, the susceptibility of consumers to advertising, Media pluralism, and the fight against racial and religious hatred.The book concludes with an evaluation of the impact of the EU state aid regime on the licence fee based financing of public broadcasting. Despite the increasing importance of the subject, its study in a comparative context has been heretofore underdeveloped. This book fully provides that context and more, and will be of great value and interest to all parties concerned with the key role of communications in the development of European integration.

digital consumers and the Law towards a cohesive european framework
2012Co-Authors: Natali Helberger, Lucie Guibault, M B M Loos, C Mak, L Pessers, B Van Der SlootAbstract:This book provides a critical analysis of how digitisation affects established concepts and policies in consumer Law. Based on evidence of the actual experience and problems encountered by consumers in digital markets, the book offers a ground-breaking study of the main issues arising in relation to the application of general consumer and sector-specific Law. An interdisciplinary team of researchers from the Centre for the Study of European Contract Law (CSECL) and the Institute for Information Law (IViR), both University of Amsterdam, combine their expertise in general consumer and contract Law, telecommunications Law, Media Law, copyright Law and privacy Law in a joint effort to point the way to a truly cohesive European Framework for Digital Consumers and the Law. Topics in this book include the characteristics of digital content markets and how they relate to traditional consumer Law; consumer concerns, reasonable expectations and how they are protected by Law; the difficult question of the classification of digital content; legal questions triggered by prosumers and underage consumers; the feasibility and future of the information approach to consumer protection; the role of fundamental rights considerations, and the legal implications of an economy that uses personal data as the new currency. Digital Consumers and the Law is an important analysis for all those interested or involved in the regulation of digital content markets. With its comprehensive discussion of a wide range of fundamental as well as praxis-oriented questions, it is an essential read for academics, policy makers, members of the content industry as well as consumer representatives.

exposure diversity as a policy goal
The Journal of Media Law, 2012Co-Authors: Natali HelbergerAbstract:The protection and promotion of Media diversity is one of the primary goals of national Media Laws and policies. Existing Laws and policies are typically concerned with the supply of a wide range of content from diverse sources. Law and policy makers have been until now far more cautious about addressing the question of the programs to which users are ultimately exposed, this despite a growing body of research that demonstrates a critical gap between the so-called diversity of supply and diversity of exposure. In light of the findings from this research, this article will critically evaluate existing Media diversity policies at the level of the Council of Europe and the European Union. To what extent do they already consider matters of exposure diversity, or should they do so more? What are the relevant issues in this context, and is it true that matters of exposure diversity are essentially unapproachable for Media Law and policy? The article will argue that in a time of digital abundance, convergence and the arrival of a plethora of new business models to distribute Media content, Media Law and policy can no longer afford to ignore matters of exposure diversity. It concludes with a number of suggestions on key aspects that can inform future conceptions of exposure diversity as a policy goal.

exposure diversity as a policy goal
The Journal of Media Law, 2012Co-Authors: Natali HelbergerAbstract:The primary goal of European Media policies is to ensure that users have access to pluralistic Media content. This is seen as the necessary premise for the exercise of people’s fundamental right to freedom of expression. To this end, existing Laws and policies must guarantee that a wide range of content from diverse sources is ready for consumption. Whether that content ultimately reaches the user, who the user is and how she finds and composes her (hopefully) diverse diet are questions on which existing Law and policies are still relatively silent. Media policies' strong focus on diversity of supply does not sit well with the realities of modern Media markets where access to and enjoyment of diverse Media content increasingly becomes a matter of individual choice, and the ability of individuals to exercise that choice. The main goal of this article is to critically evaluate existing Media diversity policies at the level of the Council of Europe and the European Union, and to examine the extent to which these already consider matters of exposure diversity, or should do so more. What are the relevant issues in this context, and is it true that matters of exposure diversity are essentially unapproachable for Media Law and policy? The article will use existing research into exposure diversity to better understand if and how diverse content reaches the user, and what the potential obstacles are. In so doing, the article also pleads for more intensive discussion regarding the integration of research from other disciplines, such as communications sciences, into Media policy making. It will conclude with a number of suggestions on key aspects to inform future Media diversity policies.

nursing students use of electronic and social Media Law ethics and e professionalism
Nursing education perspectives, 2015Co-Authors: Susan J WestrickAbstract:Abstract AIM This article discusses the promotion of professionalism in nursing students with regard to the use of electronic and social Media.

Programs are concerned about breaches of patient confidentiality and release of private or inappropriate information that jeopardize clinical placements and relationships. METHOD The American Nurses Association Code of Ethics and National Council of State Boards of Nursing social Media guidelines provide a foundation for promoting e-professionalism in students.
