Introduction to Cyberbullying CYBERBULLYING Introduction to Cyberbullying CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY CYBERBULLYING: • IF YOU ARE NOT PART OF THE SOLUTION… You ARE the problem! CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY • “Using strength (physical, social or intellectual) to INTIMIDATE someone. Often used to get somebody to do something.” Definition of “bullying” CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY • “Using electronic communications to bully someone.” Definition of “cyberbullying” CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY What your grandfather thinks when “cyberbullying” is mentioned: • “I’m going to rough up your computer and pull its plug” Attempt at humour CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY • Unfortunately cyberbullying is not so simple, and its consequences are anything but funny. No laughing matter CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY • 25% of teenagers have been the victim of cyberbullying last year • 10% of children over the age of 9 have been bullied online • 33% of victims have been subjected to online threats But the most frightening statistics are yet to come… Statistics CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY • 95% of teens who witness cyberbullying do nothing about it • 50% of teens who are victims of cyberbullying do not tell their parents Nobody does anything CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY IF YOU WITNESSED A VIOLENT CRIME, SHOULDN’T YOU REPORT IT? YES, YOU SHOULD. Even policemen can’t get away with beating people up when there are videos and the internet. CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY WHAT ABOUT YOUR VIRTUAL SELF—WHO KEEPS IT SAFE? Often: NOBODY! CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY • “So somebody has been calling you nasty names online. Is that really so bad? Sticks and stones…” • “Sure, I trash talk my friends, but they don’t mind.” • “Just don’t listen to the haters. I don’t.” Not really taken seriously CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY • Cyberbullying can lead to stress, unhappiness, depression, and even suicide. • Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death among young people aged 16-24. Homicide is 3rd. It should be CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY • Cyberbullying used to be an online behaviour with only online consequences. • Not any more. It is getting worse CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY • Cyberbullies who find out a person’s real-life identity can harass that person’s parents, teachers, fellow students, and co-workers. • In many cases, they doxx the victim—which means, they publish the victim’s personal information online—and then encourage others to harass the victim as well. Imagine not one but 100 cyberstalkers after you… CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY Even logging off won’t save you any more! CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY So, what can be done? CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY Slander • Defamatory remarks spoken to someone other than the defamed. Libel: • Defamatory remarks in print or other media. Both slander and libel are crimes which can result in a civil suit. Legal action—is it possible? CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY • Sure. You can take your case all the way to the Supreme Court. …if you have money to burn. CYBERBULLYING ASSEMBLY • Getting satisfaction in court is a long, expensive, and difficult process. • In the USA, the victim often does not win—the laws protecting freedom of speech are invoked to defend the actions of the cyberbully. • In many countries, the police have “more important” cases to investigate. Most people don’t.

  • An Interdisciplinary Approach Eric Shiraev George Mason University, USA
    Eric Shiraev Character Assassination: An interdisciplinary approach Eric Shiraev George Mason University, USA Any competition in social, professional, and political life often looks like a contest of words and images. To win in a political race or impress public opinion, people use symbols, labels, and colorful descriptions. Very often such descriptions are clear exaggerations and even distortions. They repeatedly aim not at other people’s actions but rather at their personalities. By attacking an individual's personal life, facts of a biography, and specific individual features (which we will call them "character" for convenience) the attacker tries to hurt the victim politically, morally, socially, or psychologically and thus, depending on circumstances, remove him or her from a contest, sway public opinion, or achieve some other goal. We will call these attempts character assassination, which is a deliberate attempt to seriously damage the reputation, character, social status, or achievements of another person. The motivation for character assassination is typically rooted in the attackers’ (assassin’s) desire to harm the victim psychologically and reduce public support for the victim. This should ultimately devastate or even destroy his or her chances to succeed. In other cases, character assassination is conducted to hurt the cause that the victim symbolizes or defends. More than fifty years ago, Jerome Davis in his classic book, ―Character Assassination‖ tried to show that the attempts to smear someone's reputation are rooted in crystal clear political motivations and count on the public's "fear, ignorance, envy, suspicion, malice, jealousy, frustration, greed, aggression, economic rivalry, emotional insecurity and an inferiority complex" (Davis, 1950, p.

  • Examining the Invisibility of Girl-To-Girl Bullying in Schools: a Call to Action
    Examining the Invisibility of Girl-to-Girl Bullying in Schools: A Call to Action Suzanne SooHoo It does not matter whether one is 13, 33, or 53 years old, but if you are female, chances are that other girls have bullied you sometime in your lifetime. Bullying is not the kind of abuse that leaves broken bones; rather, it is a dehumanizing experience that manifests itself in the form of rumor spreading, name calling, psychological manipulation, character assassination, and social exclusion. Female teachers who are former victims of girl bullies or who themselves have been complicit with girl-to-girl bullying, consistently casting a blind eye to this ritualized social degradation, allowing it to continue generation after generation. The purpose here is not to blame teachers, but rather to seek an answer to "What are the social or institutional forces that prevent adults in the schools from seeing what they may have experienced themselves?" Throughout generations, girls have been bullied. The dehumanizing rituals and practices, passed on from mother to daughter, have survived even when the victims have not. Damaged young girls become damaged adult women. Mothers who did not know what to do when they were girls still do not know how to handle girl-to-girl bullying as women (Simmons, 2002). Many are unable to intervene when their daughters are bullied and they continue to be victims of adult female bullies. Through the process of "othering" (SooHoo, 2006), girl bullies determine who is valued and who is not and, as such, girl-to-girl bullying contributes to a social hierarchy of privilege and oppression.

  • Bullying and Victimisation in Schools: a Restorative Justice Approach
    A U S T R A L I A N I N S T I T U T E O F C R I M I N O L O G Y t r e n d s No. 219 & Bullying and Victimisation i s s u e s in Schools: A Restorative Justice Approach in crime and criminal justice Brenda Morrison Bullying at school causes enormous stress for many children and their families, and has long-term effects. School bullying has been identified as a risk factor associated with antisocial and criminal behaviour. Bullies are more likely to drop out of school and to engage in delinquent and criminal behaviour. The victims are more likely to have higher levels of stress, anxiety, depression and illness, and an increased tendency to suicide. This paper reports on a restorative justice program that was run in a primary school in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), but whose lessons have wider application. Early intervention has been advocated as the most appropriate way to prevent bullying. This paper outlines a framework based on restorative justice principles aimed at bringing about behavioural change for the individual while keeping schools and communities safe. The aim of restorative programs is to reintegrate those affected by wrongdoing back into the community as resilient and responsible members. Restorative justice is a form of conflict resolution and seeks to make it clear to the offender that the behaviour is not condoned, at February 2002 the same time as being supportive and respectful of the individual. The paper highlights the importance of schools as institutions that can foster care and respect and provide opportunities to participate in processes ISSN 0817-8542 that allow for differences to be worked through constructively.

  • Introduction to Mobbing in the Workplace and an Overview of Adult Bullying
    1: Introduction to Mobbing in the Workplace and an Overview of Adult Bullying Workplace Bullying Clinical and Organizational Perspectives In the early 1980s, German industrial psychologist Heinz Leymann began work in Sweden, conducting studies of workers who had experienced violence on the job. Leymann’s research originally consisted of longitudinal studies of subway drivers who had accidentally run over people with their trains and of banking employees who had been robbed on the job. In the course of his research, Leymann discovered a surprising syndrome in a group that had the most severe symptoms of acute stress disorder (ASD), workers whose colleagues had ganged up on them in the workplace (Gravois, 2006). Investigating this further, Leymann studied workers in one of the major Swedish iron and steel plants. From this early work, Leymann used the term “mobbing” to refer to emotional abuse at work by one or more others. Earlier theorists such as Austrian ethnologist Konrad Lorenz and Swedish physician Peter-Paul Heinemann used the term before Leymann, but Leymann received the most recognition for it. Lorenz used “mobbing” to describe animal group behavior, such as attacks by a group of smaller animals on a single larger animal (Lorenz, 1991, in Zapf & Leymann, 1996). Heinemann borrowed this term and used it to describe the destructive behavior of children, often in a group, against a single child. This text uses the terms “mobbing” and “bullying” interchangeably; however, mobbing more often refers to bullying by more than one person and can be more subtle. Bullying more often focuses on the actions of a single person.

  • Review of the Routledge Handbook of Character Assassination and Reputation Management, Edited by Sergei A. Samoilenko, Martijn I
    Journal of Applied Social Theory | Review ____________________________________________________________ Review of The Routledge Handbook of Character Assassination and Reputation Management, edited by Sergei A. Samoilenko, Martijn Icks, Jennifer Keohane, and Eric Shiraev. New York: Routledge, 2020 James M. Jasper* The City University of New York Vol 1, No 3 (2021), 206 - 210 ___________________________________________________________ The online version of this text can be found at socialtheoryapplied.com/journal/ There has been a proliferation of handbooks lately, presumably because libraries continue to buy them even as their budgets shrink. Most handbooks are dutiful efforts to cover well-known fields, with deference to the major figures and ideas. The best, in contrast, help to define emerging fields, providing theory, language, exemplary cases, and methods for studying an aspect of reality that has previously been out of sight. The Routledge Handbook of Character Assassination and Reputation Management is in the latter category, putting the topic of character assassination (CA) firmly on the intellectual map through its diverse, sweeping, and often entertaining essays. Because this multidisciplinary book is intended to stake out intellectual territory and attract young scholars, rather than being a perfunctory exercise in coverage, the editors seem to have taken unusual care in the quality of the chapters, which are better written than the average handbook text. It helps that CA can be quite entertaining. Cases * Email: [email protected] 206 Journal of Applied Social Theory, Vol. 1, 2021 from a range of regions and historical periods show the ubiquity of CA wherever politics involves persuasion – which is pretty much everywhere. We think of rhetoric as crucial in democracies, where voters must be influenced and citizens mobilized for wars, but persuasion also occurs in authoritarian regimes, albeit with smaller audiences (often only one person, the prince).

  • Book Reviews and Book Notes
    BOOK REVIEWS AND BOOK NOTES Edited by J. CUTLER ANDREWS Pennsylvania College for Women The Keystone in the Demnocratic Arch: Pennsylvania Politics, M8oo-i8i6, By Sanford W. Higginbotham. (Harrisburg: Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, 1952. Pp. x, 417. $2.50 paper bound; $3.00 cloth bound.) The dictum, "History is past politics ... ," would not convey the conno- tation of dry-as-dust narrative had earlier writers of political history pre- sented their material with such regard for economic, social, and cultural factors as has Dr. Higginbotham. His volume, bridging the chronological gap between Harry M. Tinkcom's The Republicans and Federalists in Penn- sylvantia, 1790-180i and Philip S. Klein's Pennsylvania Politics, 1817-1832, is a worthy addition to the series of University of Pennsylvania doctoral dissertations which treat thoroughly one to two decades of the Keystone State's political development. This book covers the administrations of Governors Thomas McKean and Simon Snyder and emphasizes particularly the changing fortunes of the Democratic-Republican Party. During the presidencies of Jefferson and Madison the Republicans controlled Pennsylvania and threw their weight into the national struggle when there was danger that the Federalists might breach the arch of Democratic control. As Dr. Higginbotham demonstrates, the Jeffersonians in Pennsylvania were a liberal party with a farmer-artisan following. This fact is often overlooked by some Southerners and West- erners of our own time who are wont to picture Pennsylvania as a per- petual happy hunting ground for corporate monopoly and reactionary politics. Yet Pennsylvania politics is seldom an edifying business, and Dr. Higgin.

  • BOT Report 09-Nov-20.Docx
    REPORT 9 OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES (November 2020) Bullying in the Practice of Medicine (Reference Committee D) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY At the 2019 Annual Meeting Resolution 402-A-19, “Bullying in the Practice of Medicine,” was introduced by the Young Physicians Section and referred by the House of Delegates (HOD) for report back at the 2020 Annual Meeting. The resolution asks the American Medical Association (AMA) to help (1) establish a clear definition of professional bullying, (2) establish prevalence and impact of professional bullying, and (3) establish guidelines for prevention of professional bullying. This report provides statistics and other information about the prevalence and impact of professional bullying in the practice of medicine, and makes recommendations for the adoption of a formal definition and guidelines for establishing policies and strategies for preventing and addressing incidents of bullying among the health care staff. Bullying in the practice of medicine for physicians can begin in medical school and can endure throughout a physician’s career. Bullying is not limited to physicians and can happen among other members of the health care team. Bullying has many definitions, all commonly referring to the repeated abuse of a target by a perpetrator in a work setting. Bullying occurs at different levels within the practice of medicine, and affects the victim as well as their patients, care teams, organizations, and families. Nationally recognized organizations have established guidelines on which health care employers can base their internal policies, and many organizations have implemented anti-bullying or anti-violence policies. Bullying in medicine needs to be stopped and prevented for the sake of patients and care quality, the well- being of the physician workforce, and the integrity of the medical profession.
