Book Description
Technological advances have made the right to privacy an important issue. Most discussions of privacy focus largely on methods and standards for the protection of specific privacy rights. In contrast, Elizabeth Neill addresses the need to re-evaluate what it means for us to possess a right to privacy, or rights at all. In Rites of Privacy and the Privacy Trade Neill constructs an original theory of natural rights and human dignity to ground our right to privacy, arguing that privacy and autonomy are innate natural properties metaphorically represented on the moral level and socially bestowed. She develops her position by drawing on works in history, sociology, metaphor, law, and the moral psychology of Lawrence Kohlberg. The resulting theory provides surprising answers to controversial and pressing questions regarding, for instance, our right to privacy for medical records in various contexts and in relation to various authority structures, including government. Neill demonstrates that, while we have some entitlement to protection of privacy, entitlement does not have the moral scope suggested by currently entrenched legal and social norms. She cautions against some of the privacy privileges we currently enjoy B referring specifically to claims such as those against insurance companies to prevent access to medical records B and suggests that if they are to be continued, respect for privacy is not the reason.

The Routledge Research Companion to Law and Humanities in Nineteenth-Century America
Author: Nan Goodman
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1317042972
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 395
Book Description
Nineteenth-century America witnessed some of the most important and fruitful areas of intersection between the law and humanities, as people began to realize that the law, formerly confined to courts and lawyers, might also find expression in a variety of ostensibly non-legal areas such as painting, poetry, fiction, and sculpture. Bringing together leading researchers from law schools and humanities departments, this Companion touches on regulatory, statutory, and common law in nineteenth-century America and encompasses judges, lawyers, legislators, litigants, and the institutions they inhabited (courts, firms, prisons). It will serve as a reference for specific information on a variety of law- and humanities-related topics as well as a guide to understanding how the two disciplines developed in tandem in the long nineteenth century.

Privacy-Law of Civil Liberties
Author: Sally Ramage
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595449018
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
The right to privacy, or the right to private life, is at the heart of individual freedom and the right to be free from arbitrary government interference. The United Kingdom, although part of the European Union, has privacy issues unlike EU member states of Germany and France, for example, and yet the UK Press has much more freedom compared to the ordinary citizen. This book (published in 2007) follows on from the author's 2004 book titled Civil Liberties in England and Wales. Privacy is a contemporary topic of law and some might even say, the hottest civil liberties topic. The UK government has before Parliament The Serious Crimes Bill 2007, one part of which will attempt to establish a super police database of all UK citizens' information and another part of which will attempt to make the interrogation of business files on personnel a legal compulsion. The UK government also has The Interception Of Communication (As Evidence) Bill 2007 before parliament. It is therefore fitting that the subject of privacy is aired.
