Grundidee dieses Buches ist es, 20 Rechtskonflikte aus dem Medien- und Internetrecht aufzugreifen, die in den letzten Jahren weit über die Fachkreise hinaus diskutiert wurden. Einige spiegeln sich bereits im Titel des Buches wider: Böhmermann, Künast, Rezo. Diese Namen sind mit folgenden Rechtsfragen verknüpft: Ist Satire immer von der Kunstfreiheit gedeckt? Müssen Politiker:innen jede Verbalattacke dulden? Welche Sorgfaltspflichten gelten für Videos politisch aktiver YouTuber:innen? Jeder Fall wird zunächst anschaulich in seiner Entwicklung nachgezeichnet und durch ein begleitendes Interview mit Prozessbeteiligten oder sachnahen Expert:innen ergänzt. Die darauffolgenden Beiträge dienen der rechtlichen Einordnung und bieten Gelegenheit, ein breites Spektrum des Medien- und Internetrechts fallbezogen zu erfassen. Was das Buch besonders macht, ist die Aufbereitung dieser Fälle in einer Kombination aus journalistischer Darstellung und juristischer Falllösung. Sie soll das Internet- und Medienrecht als "law in action" veranschaulichen. Zahlreiche namhafte Interviewpartner:innen sowie anerkannte Autor:innen aus Wissenschaft und Praxis konnten hierfür gewonnen werden.

Medien- und Internetrecht in 20 Fällen

Böhmermann, Künast, Rezo

There is order on the internet, but how has this order emerged and what challenges will threaten and shape its future? This study shows how a legitimate order of norms has emerged online, through both national and international legal systems. It establishes the emergence of a normative order of the internet, an order which explains and justifies processes of online rule and regulation. This order integrates norms at three different levels (regional, national, international), of two types (privately and publicly authored), and of different character (from ius cogens to technical standards). Matthias C. Kettemann assesses their internal coherence, their consonance with other order norms and their consistency with the order's finality. The normative order of the internet is based on and produces a liquefied system characterized by self-learning normativity. In light of the importance of the socio-communicative online space, this is a book for anyone interested in understanding the contemporary development of the internet. This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. It is offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations.

The Normative Order of the Internet

In a digitally connected world, the question of how to respect, protect and implement human rights has become unavoidable. This contemporary Research Handbook offers new insights into well-established debates by framing them in terms of human rights. It examines the issues posed by the management of key Internet resources, the governance of its architecture, the role of different stakeholders, the legitimacy of rule making and rule-enforcement, and the exercise of international public authority over users. Highly interdisciplinary, its contributions draw on law, political science, international relations and even computer science and science and technology studies.

Research Handbook on Human Rights and Digital Technology

Wolfgang Benedek

An invaluable resource for students of law, politics, international relations and technology as well as for diplomats and civil society actors, this publication demonstrates how the Council of Europe contributes to ensuring that everyone’s voice online can be heard. This is key to sustainable, human rights oriented and people-centred digitalisation. Human rights matter on the internet. Without freedom of expression, people cannot participate in everything that the information society has to offer. Yet online free speech is in danger. Between state laws, private rules and algorithms, full participation in the online communicative space faces many challenges. This publication explores the profound impact of the internet on free expression and how it can be effectively secured online. The second, updated edition of this introduction into the protection of freedom of expression online answers essential questions regarding the extent and limits of freedom of expression online and the role of social networks, courts, states and organisations in online communication spaces. In clear language, with vivid examples spanning two decades of internet law, the authors answer questions on freedom of expression in cyberspace. Addressing issues from the protection of bloggers to the right to access online information, the publication also shows the importance of the standard-setting, monitoring and promotion activities of international and non-governmental organisations and includes a chapter on relevant national practice. It pays special attention to the role of European human rights law and the Council of Europe as this region’s most important human rights organisation.
