This book was published in 2003.This book offers a broad and
incisive analysis of the governance of privacy protection with
regard to personal information in contemporary advanced industrial
states. Based on research across many countries, it discusses the
goals of privacy protection policy and the changing discourse
surrounding the privacy issue, concerning risk, trust and social
values. It analyzes at length the contemporary policy instruments
that together comprise the inventory of possible solutions to the
problem of privacy protection. It argues that privacy protection
depends upon an integration of these instruments, but that any
country's efforts are inescapably linked with the actions of others
that operate outside its borders. The book concludes that, in a
'globalizing' world, this regulatory interdependence could lead
either to a search for the highest possible standard of privacy
protection, or to competitive deregulation, or to a more complex
outcome reflecting the nature of the issue and its policy
responses.
