Drawing on rich, empirical case studies this innovative book
provides a contemporary and comprehensive exploration of the
plural, dynamic and precarious processes, materials, practices,
interventions and relationships on social network sites, and their
resultant power effects, when copyright and data privacy rights are
at stake. In pursuit of this objective, chapters develop a
cutting-edge conceptual power lens that brings together
Actor-Network theory and Foucauldian scholarship on power. Applying
this analytical framework to the case studies of Facebook (data
protection) and YouTube (copyright), Asma Vranaki draws critical
attention to underexplored and novel matters in digital regulation.
These matters include resistance; the materiality of regulation;
complex, contingent, fragile and dynamic digital 'regulatory
spaces'; the contingency of power; law as a heterogenous
'assemblage'; the unintended consequence of local orderings; and
the links between power and spaces. Ultimately, the author
demonstrates that power effects are highly localised, precarious
and contingent outcomes of manifold, complex and fluid alliances
between diverse humans and non-humans. Advancing various
contentions on how social network sites can be successfully
regulated, the empirical analyses and multi-disciplinary approaches
in this book will prove invaluable to students, scholars and
practitioners of law, particularly those interested in regulation,
data protection and copyright in social network sites.
