Cyberbullying is a problem that is being increasingly investigated
by researchers, however, much of the cyberbullying research
literature to date has focused on children and youth. Cyberbullying
at University in International Contexts fills the gap in the
research literature by examining the nature, extent, impacts,
proposed solutions, and policy and practice considerations of
bullying in the cyber-world at post-secondary institutions, where
reports of serious cyberbullying incidents have become more
prevalent. This book brings together cutting-edge research from
around the world to examine the issue of cyberbullying through a
multi-disciplinary lens, offering an array of approaches,
interpretations, and solutions. It is not solely focused on
cyberbullying by and against students, but also includes
cyberbullying by and against faculty members, and permutations
involving both students and faculty, as well as institutional
staff, presenting perspectives from students, practitioners and
senior university policy makers. It draws on research from
education, criminology, psychology, sociology, communications, law,
health sciences, social work, humanities, labour studies and is
valuable reading for graduate students in these fields. It is also
essential reading for policymakers, practitioners and University
administrators who recognize their responsibility to provide a
healthy workplace for their staff, as well as a safe and respectful
environment for their students.
