Produktbeschreibung

"This intellectually exciting collection seamlessly draws together highly original research and reflections on the perils and potential of technology--and imagines the digital futures that might be possible if we heed the insights of feminist scholars."--Alondra Nelson, Institute for Advanced Study "With this volume, Meg Leta Jones and Amanda Levendowski have accomplished the Herculean task of assembling a diverse collection of essays that are sure to become mainstays of the critical feminist law canon. These essays expose how an approach to cyberlaw rooted in patriarchy can contribute to the degradation and exploitation of the bodies and labor of women. The essays also spotlight and advocate for the feminist values of accountability, consent, autonomy, and participation that would benefit not just women but also racial and other minorities. Feminist Cyberlaw will stand as an indispensable resource for legal scholars and practitioners alike attempting to understand how the internet could live up to its true democratic ideals."--Ifeoma Ajunwa, author of The Quantified Worker: Law and Technology in the Modern Workplace "Feminist Cyberlaw is a welcome and brilliant collection that we need now more than ever. This book expertly shows how rules for digital technologies have always been about bodies, social dynamics, and power. These contributions provide an urgent and compelling demonstration of how cyberlaw often loses the thread and how to do better. It's a critical read."--Woodrow Hartzog, author of Privacy's Blueprint: The Battle to Control the Design of New Technologies "This volume is scholarly yet engaging, broad in scope yet cogent in argument, and critical yet hopeful. Taking a feminist lens to various facets of the law affecting the internet and digital technologies, Feminist Cyberlaw asks readers to appreciate the biases baked into law and technology scholarship to date and challenges scholars, students, and anyone who uses digital technologies--that is, all of us--to reconsider foundational concepts in intellectual property, privacy, and antidiscrimination law from the ground up. It's a must-read."--Ari Waldman, author of Industry Unbound: The Inside Story of Privacy, Data, and Corporate Power "At last, this is the collection on cyberlaw that we always needed. Bringing together some of the most incisive and creative scholars in the field, this volume illuminates the core issues of materiality, subjectivity, and power. Essential reading."--Kate Crawford, author of Atlas of AI: Power, Politics, and the Planetary Costs of Artificial Intelligence "A brilliant collection of essays on one of the most important and overlooked topics in information law today. This is a must-read collection for anyone interested in the intersection of tech law, empowerment, and justice."--Sonia K. Katyal, Roger J. Traynor Distinguished Professor of Law and Co-Director of the Berkeley Center for Law & Technology, University of California, Berkeley "This timely collection brings together a diverse cast of feminist perspectives on law and technology regulation."--Rebecca Tushnet, Frank Stanton Professor of the First Amendment, Harvard Law School
