Medienrecht / IT-Recht und Medienstrafrecht

Die technische Entwicklung spielt gerade im Medienrecht eine herausragende Rolle. Mit dem Internet und der Digitalisierung haben sich die Bedingungen der Nutzung von Medienprodukten radikal verändert. Sowohl die technischen Voraussetzungen der Verbreitung von Medienprodukten als auch das Nutzerverhalten haben Konsequenzen für die medienrechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen. Als Beispiel ist die Vorratsdatenspeicherung zu nennen.Der 5. Band geht auf grundsätzliche Fragen der Haftung der Provider, des Schutzes personenbezogener Daten und der strafrechtlichen Verantwortlichkeit der Nutzer und der Unternehmen ein. Hierbei sind das Telemedien-, Telekommunikations-, Datenbank-, IT-Sicherheits- und Medienstrafrecht besonders hervorzuheben.

Klappentext

Technical advances are currently playing a prominent role in media law. The terms of use for media products have radically changed since the introduction of the Internet and the process of digitalization. The technical requirements for distributing media products as well as users' behavior have consequences for the legal framework of media law. The retention of stored data is just one example. The fifth volume addresses fundamental questions regarding the provider's liability, the protection of personal data, and the responsibility of users and companies under criminal law. With regard to these matters, special emphasis is placed on the laws governing telemedia, telecommunications, data banks, as well as IT security and media criminal law.

Zusammenfassung

Media law as a means of organization in the real world and the virtual world continues to gain in economic and cultural importance. The global market and the networking of information and communication processes require an improved legal framework for media law in the 21st century. It is not merely production conditions that have been impacted by the digital revolution, but the manner of marketing media products and the use of such are increasingly being conducted in the Internet.

In addition to the classical fields of media law, such as press, broadcasting and film, these five volumes also take into account issues pertaining to sports, theater and electronic media. The presentation includes media law-related aspects of the law of competition, telemedia law and copyright law as well as the laws regarding broadcasting, press, personality rights, telecommunications, data protection, samples/design, and domain rights; licensing contract law, the law of publication, media criminal law, photography law as well as media cartel law are also discussed.

This complete presentation of media law particularly addresses the European legal framework. Attorneys, legal scholars and media experts comprehensively and systematically address the processes in society relevant to media law in their contributions to the five volumes of this handbook.
