The ebook edition of this title is Open Access and freely available
to read online Digital technologies have led to many important
social and cultural changes worldwide, but they are also implicated
in the facilitation of violence and abuse. While cybercriminality
is often described as one of the greatest threats to nation states
and global security, the wide range of interpersonal crimes
comprising technology-facilitated violence and abuse (TFVA) -
including, but not limited to, image-based sexual abuse, hate
speech, online sexual harassment and cyberstalking - has received
little attention. This handbook features theoretical, empirical,
policy and legal analysis of TFVA from over 40 multidisciplinary
scholars, practitioners, advocates, survivors and technologists
from 17 countries. Addressing a spectrum of abuse perpetrated
online, offline and through new technologies, the book sets TFVA in
the context of intersecting underlying systemic drivers - including
misogyny, racism, classism, colonialism, ableism, ageism,
transphobia and homophobia - and discusses ways forward in
effectively responding to TFVA. Adopting a holistic approach, it
explores a host of issues relating to TFVA, including the nature
and experience of harmful and criminal conduct; organisational
responses; regulatory, legal and ethical concerns; corporate and
social responsibility; justice for victims; bystander intervention;
and cultural and social attitudes. The handbook's international,
interdisciplinary and intersectoral nature affords opportunities
for learning from common experiences, but it also emphasises the
equality-affirming importance of avoiding one-size-fits-all
analyses that fail to reflect rich and diverse experiences from
around the world.
