The challenges faced by privacy laws in changing technological, commercial and social environments are considered in this broad-ranging 2006 examination of privacy law. The book encompasses three overlapping areas of analysis: privacy protection under the general law; legislative measures for data protection in digital communications networks; and the influence of transnational agreements and other pressures toward harmonised privacy standards. Leading, internationally recognised authors discuss developments across these three areas in the UK, Europe, the US, APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation), Australia and New Zealand. Chapters draw on doctrinal and historical analysis of case law, theoretical approaches to both freedom of speech and privacy, and the interaction of law and communications technologies in order to examine present and future challenges to law's engagement with privacy.

This review is from: New Dimensions in Privacy Law: International and Comparative Perspectives (Hardcover)
Andrew Kenyon and Megan Richardson have assembled some diverse authors who present various aspects of privacy law with a particular focus on England and the EU. The book is a great resource in trying to unravel the twists and turns in common law privacy especially as Emglish law is influenced by decisions in Strasbourg. The articles were carefully selected and range from theoretical to very pragmatic outlooks.
