It investigates whether international human rights law is applicable in regulating harmful online conduct and speech, with a focus on sexual violence, various forms of harassment, sexist hate speech and harmful pornography. This involves assessing whether gender-based online offences are considered violations of international human rights law and - if they are recognised as such explicitly or by way of interpretation - the extent of state obligations. The book reviews a range of international law sources, such as selected international human rights law treaties, case law, soft-law documents and academic scholarship. The application of general human rights law provisions to the online sphere is evaluated by considering the online/offline coherence of provisions as well as potential gaps, inconsistencies and disadvantages that exist in the regulation of online gender-based offences. The makeup, aim and effect of social spheres, areas of law and legal principles are thus assessed in relation to gender and the Internet. Aspects discussed include the architecture of the Internet, the structure of public international law, the harm principle as employed in domestic law and international human rights law, and the scope of particular rights, mainly involving the freedom of expression and the right to privacy. Working from the premise that the transposition of international human rights law to the Internet must ensure the former's functionality and effectiveness, the book argues that a contextual application of rights is called for. This requires assessing what is harmful online - including the effects of online speech and conduct - and what are effective means of regulating liability on the Internet. In turn, such assessments require a gender-sensitive approach. 606 $aHuman rights 606 $aInformation technology$xLaw and legislation 606 $aMass media$xLaw and legislation 606 $aLaw$xPhilosophy 606 $aLaw$xHistory 606 $aInternational law 606 $aCriminal law 606 $aSex 606 $aHuman Rights 606 $aIT Law, Media Law, Intellectual Property 606 $aTheories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal History 606 $aPublic International Law 606 $aCriminal Law and Criminal Procedure Law 606 $aGender Studies 615 0$aHuman rights. 615 0$aInformation technology$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aMass media$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aLaw$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aLaw$xHistory. 615 0$aInternational law. 615 0$aCriminal law. 615 0$aSex. 615 14$aHuman Rights. 615 24$aIT Law, Media Law, Intellectual Property. 615 24$aTheories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal History. 615 24$aPublic International Law. 615 24$aCriminal Law and Criminal Procedure Law. 615 24$aGender Studies. 676 $a341.481 676 $a342.0878 700 $aSjo?holm$b Maria$f1978-$01337354 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910624385303321 996 $aInternational human rights law and protection against gender-based harm on the internet$93056895 997 $aUNINA
