Data Protection and Privacy, Volume 14 : Enforcing Rights in a Changing World
This book brings together papers that offer conceptual analyses, highlight issues, propose solutions, and discuss practices regarding privacy, data protection and enforcing rights in a changing world.It is one of the results of the 14th annual International Conference on Computers, Privacy and Data Protection (CPDP), which took place online in January 2021. The pandemic has produced deep and ongoing changes in how, when, why, and the media through which, we interact.Many of these changes correspond to new approaches in the collection and use of our data - new in terms of scale, form, and purpose.This raises difficult questions as to which rights we have, and should have, in relation to such novel forms of data processing, the degree to which these rights should be balanced against other poignant social interests, and how these rights should be enforced in light of the fluidity and uncertainty of circumstances. The book covers a range of topics, such as: digital sovereignty; art and algorithmic accountability; multistakeholderism in the Brazilian General Data Protection law; expectations of privacy and the European Court of Human Rights; the function of explanations; DPIAs and smart cities; and of course, EU data protection law and the pandemic – including chapters on scientific research and on the EU Digital COVID Certificate framework. This interdisciplinary book has been written at a time when the scale and impact of data processing on society – on individuals as well as on social systems – is becoming ever starker.It discusses open issues as well as daring and prospective approaches and is an insightful resource for readers with an interest in computers, privacy and data protection.

Modern Isonomy : Democratic Participation and Human Rights Protection as a System of Equal Rights
Until the eighteenth century, Western societies were hierarchical ones.Since then, they have transformed themselves into societies dominated by two features: participatory democracy and the protection of human rights.In Modern Isonomy, distinguished political theorist Gerald Stourzh unites these ideas as "isonomy." The ideal, Stourzh argues, is a state, and indeed a world, in which individual rights, including the right to participate in politics equally, are clearly defined and possessed by all.Stourzh begins with ancient Greek thought contrasting isonomy-which is associated with the rule of the many-with "gradated societies," oligarchies, and monarchies.He then discusses the American experiment with the development of representative democracy as well as the French Revolution, which proclaimed that all people are born and remain free and with equal rights.But progress on the creation and protection of rights for all has been uneven.Stourzh discusses specifically the equalization of slaves, peasants, women, Jews, and indigenous people.He demonstrates how deeply intertwined the protection of equal rights is with the development of democracy and gives particular attention to the development of constitutional adjudication, notably the constitutional complaint of individuals.He also discusses the international protection human rights.Timely and thought-provoking, Modern Isonomy is an erudite exploration of political and human rights.

Citizen Rights, Migrant Rights and Civic Stratification
This book explores the concept of civic stratification and examines its contemporary relevance for analysis and understanding of the functioning of rights in society. David Lockwood’s (1996) concept of civic stratification outlines the way in which the rights associated with citizenship can be a source of inequality by virtue of their formal granting or denial by the state, or by informal impediments to their full realisation.The purpose of this book is to explore the meaning and significance of this concept, and elaborate its potential in offering a framework for understanding the dynamic nature of rights.Lockwood’s model reverses Marshall’s (1950) view of citizenship as guaranteed inclusion in society and is linked to the way that the differential entitlement and the qualifying conditions associated with certain rights can be harnessed as a means of control.While both Marshall and Lockwood were principally concerned with the rights attaching to citizenship, this book extends the insights of these two authors to show how such controls apply in various ways to both citizens and non-citizens alike.Building on Lockwood’s conception of ‘moral resources’ the book set out a theoretical framework and empirical illustration of how the position of different groups within society is subject to shifting perceptions of social worth and is engaged both in claims to fuller access to rights and in justifications of their denial or removal. This book will appeal to scholars and higher-level students with relevant interests in sociolegal studies, sociology, social policy and politics.

Do political rights want security and political left want freedom?
It is not accurate to say that political rights want security and political left want freedom as a general rule. Both political ideologies value both security and freedom, but may prioritize them differently. Political rights often emphasize the importance of security and stability in society, while the political left may prioritize individual freedoms and social justice. Ultimately, both sides seek a balance between security and freedom in order to create a just and prosperous society.

How does the Infection Protection Act restrict our fundamental rights?
The Infection Protection Act restricts fundamental rights by granting the government the authority to impose measures such as lockdowns, curfews, and restrictions on gatherings in order to control the spread of infectious diseases. These measures can limit individuals' freedom of movement, assembly, and privacy. Additionally, the act allows for mandatory testing, quarantine, and vaccination, which can infringe on individuals' bodily autonomy and right to refuse medical treatment. Overall, the act gives the government significant powers to restrict fundamental rights in the interest of public health and safety.

How do fundamental rights differ from human rights?
Fundamental rights are specific rights that are recognized and protected by a country's constitution or laws, and they are typically enforceable through legal means within that country. On the other hand, human rights are universal rights that are inherent to all human beings, regardless of their nationality or citizenship, and they are often recognized and protected by international agreements and treaties. While fundamental rights are specific to the legal framework of a particular country, human rights are considered to be universal and apply to all individuals worldwide. Additionally, fundamental rights may vary from country to country, while human rights are meant to be consistent and applicable to everyone.
