Description

This volume originated from an international, interdisciplinary research course organized by the Institute of Information Management of the University of Münster in 2021-2022, funded by the DAAD IVAC sponsorship program. The coauthors and their contributions represent different disciplines, fusing perspectives of law and information sciences.
The contributions present current issues in AI, ethics and human rights, policing, privacy and surveillance, social media, and data protection. The book has a further mission: it offers insight into a novel educational format that combines an intercultural learning environment with interdisciplinary co-working, e-learning methods, peer education, and interactive group work.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
