  • MIND the GAP Private Power, Online Information Flows and EU Law
    MIND THE GAP Private Power, Online Information Flows and EU Law Angela Daly Thesis submitted for assessment with a view to obtaining the degree of Doctor of Laws of the European University Institute Florence, February 2015 (submission) European University Institute Department of Law Mind the Gap: Private Power, Online Information Flows and EU Law V Angela Daly Thesis submitted for assessment with a view to obtaining the degree of Doctor of Laws of the European University Institute Examining Board Professor Giorgio Monti, European University Institute (EUI Supervisor) Professor Giovanni Sartor, European University Institute Professor Lilian Edwards, University of Strathclyde Professor Chris Marsden, University of Sussex © Angela Daly, 2015 No part of this thesis may be copied, reproduced or transmitted without prior permission of the author SUMMARY This thesis examines how European Union law and regulation address concentrations of private economic power which impede free information flows on the Internet to the detriment of Internet users’ autonomy. In particular, competition law, sector specific regulation (if it exists), data protection and human rights law are considered and assessed to the extent they can tackle such concentrations of power for the benefit of users. Illustrative case studies - of Internet provision, search, mobile devices and app stores, and the cloud – are chosen to demonstrate the gaps that exist in current EU law and regulation when applied to concentrations of private power online. It is argued that these gaps exist due, in part, to current overarching trends guiding the regulation of economic power, namely neoliberalism, by which only the situation of market failures can invite ex ante rules, buoyed by the lobbying of regulators and legislators by those in possession of such economic power to achieve outcomes which favour their businesses.

It is my privilege, together with the Hart and the wider Bloomsbury team, to take the list forward and build on his rich legacy. I am very grateful for the warm and generous welcome which has been extended to me by Hart authors and I very much look forward to working with you in the future. Hart authors’ great tradition of prize winning scholarship continued unabated in 2014. In particular, I am delighted to congratulate James Goudkamp, author of Tort Law Defences and Jure Vidmar, author of Democratic Statehood in International Law who were awarded the 2014 SLS Peter Birks Prize for Outstanding Legal Scholarship (Joint Second Prize). Warm congratulations also go to Brian Sloan: his title Informal Carers and Private Law was awarded the University of Cambridge’s Yorke Prize. The prestigious American Society of International Law’s Francis Lieber Society Book Prize 2014 was awarded to Russell Buchan’s International Law and the Construction of the Liberal Peace.

  • Immediation II
    Immediation II Edited by Erin Manning, Anna Munster, Bodil Marie Stavning Thomsen Immediation II Immediations Series Editor: SenseLab “Philosophy begins in wonder. And, at the end, when philosophic thought has done its best, the wonder remains” – A.N. Whitehead The aim of the Immediations book series is to prolong the wonder sustaining philosophic thought into transdisciplinary encounters. Its premise is that concepts are for the enacting: they must be experienced. Thought is lived, else it expires. It is most intensely lived at the crossroads of practices, and in the in-between of individuals and their singular endeavors: enlivened in the weave of a relational fabric. Co-composition. “The smile spreads over the face, as the face fits itself onto the smile” – A. N. Whitehead Which practices enter into co-composition will be left an open question, to be answered by the Series authors. Art practice, aesthetic theory, political theory, movement practice, media theory, maker culture, science studies, architecture, philosophy … the range is free. We invite you to roam it.

    Studies in Visual Arts and Communication: an international journal Vol 5, No 2 (2018) on-line ISSN 2393 - 1221 From Perception to Recollection: a spatio-temporal mediated interaction George Themistokleous* Abstract This paper will consider how a media installation called the diplorasis, aims at rethinking understandings of the body in space and time. Through the diplorasis there is an attempt to reconsider the scientific view on the human eyes in relation to art historical accounts of the representational image and to revise these from the perspective of philosophical texts on the image and its relation to an embodied and a disembodied perception (Deleuze, Bergson, Merleau-Ponty). Through this mediated visuality, the prosthetic body becomes re-articulated via a re-framing of the relations between perception and recollection. Keywords: visual media, body and space-time, digital stereoscope, media installation, time-image Introduction an-other understanding of the body, the prosthetic body as we interpret it today. This article begins by re-considering linear Diplorasis derives from the Greek diplo and perspectival representation and the divide this orasi, and is translated as doubled sight. assumes between body and space, in The understanding of the cognitive comparison to alternative modes such as functioning of this “other” body begins by re- stereoscopic representation, where this considering the notion of duration through the distinction is absent. In Hubert Damisch’s A diplorasis and in relation to the understanding Theory of /Cloud/ (2002), the cloud, due to its of duration by Henri Bergson in Matter and very nature of being a ‘body without a surface’ Memory (first published in 1896) and by Gilles (2002: 127), provides a useful prompt to re-think Deleuze in Bergsonism (first published in 1968).
