The regular article tracking developments at the national level in key European countries in the area of IT and communications – Co-ordinated by Herbert Smith LLP and contributed to by firms across Europe

This column provides a concise alerting service of important national developments in key European countries. Part of its purpose is to compliment the Journal's feature articles and Briefing Notes by keeping readers abreast of what is currently happening “on the ground” at a national level in implementing EU level legislation and international conventions and treaties. Where an item of European National News is of particular significance, CLSR may also cover it in more detail in the current or a subsequent edition.     

网络侵权案件的侵权行为地管辖依据评析

侵权行为地这一传统属地管辖依据能否适用于以及该如何适用于网络侵权案件，是具有理论和实践双重意义的重要问题。该依据虽然受到网络的冲击，但仍能适用于此类案件。然而，我们必须基于网络侵权行为的特殊性对其加以发展。“被告侵权设备所在地”作为被告侵权行为实施地管辖依据，具有确定性和合理性，应作为网络侵权案件的主要管辖依据。“原告发现侵权信息的计算机终端设备所在地”一般不能作为管辖依据。只有当被告侵权行为实施地难以确定时，它才可作为侵权结果发生地管辖依据而得以适用，成为网络侵权案件的辅助管辖依据。

行政许可还是行业自治——基于网吧行业治理的分析

网吧行业作为我国新兴行业,其行业治理的既往历史与未来走向具有借鉴意义。当今网吧行业的治理主要是基于行政许可制度的政府管制,但在实践中,政府管制却不能解决网吧行业出现的所有问题。行业自治作为公民社会的一个重要标志,应用于网吧行业治理将成为一种有效手段。目前,我国应该结合政府管制与行业自治,积极协调综合治理,使网吧行业健康发展。     

从“人肉搜索”现象反思校园BBS建设

网络上存在的“人肉搜索”现象主要基于互联网的发展、网民对焦点社会问题的普遍关注以及网民的各种心理动机的需要三方面因素。校园BBS在校园文化建设中具有重要地位，同时也凸现出“人肉搜索”的潜在危机问题。因此，需要从学校管理、网络监管、师生道德自律等方面来加以改进和完善。     

大学生沉溺网络现象分析

网络沉溺现象有着复杂的因果关系,从发展心理学角度分析,包括角色同一性认知缺失、亲密感建立不完善、自我意识发展中的个人辩证分析失衡和人生价值观不成熟等众多因素。从发展的角度分析,大学生网络沉溺现象的发生不是单一大学阶段教育的问题,而是大学生在个体发展中长期存在不可调和矛盾的集中爆发,因此,要减少或避免大学生沉溺网络,从未进大学抓起。     

Educational Competency as an Indicator of Occupational Stress for Probation and Parole Officers

Probation and parole officers are assigned the responsibility of supervising convicted criminals in a community setting in such a way that the competing goals of punishment, public safety, offender rehabilitation, and deterrence are achieved. All the while, these tasks are accomplished within the confines of shrinking budgets, large case loads, increasingly high-risk offenders, low occupational prestige, and considerable political and public scrutiny. These competing demands often result in especially high levels of work-related stress. The point of this research is to consider the divergence in occupational stress among probation/parole officers and whether or not they felt educationally prepared for their job. The data for this study were collected during a two-month study period which began on March 15, 2005. Data were collected non-randomly through a national Internet based survey of active probation/parole officers. This study considers a sub-sample of 2, 364 officers from fifteen states. The results show probation/parole officers who feel educationally under-prepared are likely to experience higher levels of occupational stress and more likely to have negative manifestations of stress than those officers who feel well-prepared.     

浅谈网络招聘诈骗案件的侦查

网络招聘成为网络技术在人力资源管理中应用的主要形式,网络招聘不仅节约企业的招聘成本,也为求职者提供了更为广阔的择业空间,但是网络招聘的崛起也为实施网络招聘诈骗的不法分子提供了有利的机会。侦破网络招聘诈骗案件,有利于维护就业市场秩序,有利于维护社会主义市场经济的稳定和健康发展。     

浅析网络诈骗犯罪的立案管辖

对于网络诈骗犯罪的管辖,如果盲目沿用固有的管辖规定,会严重影响打击防范网络诈骗犯罪的效果。为了方便侦查取证,此类案件的立案管辖需要在沿用传统管辖理论的基础上,针对网络诈骗犯罪手法的多样化、犯罪空间的虚拟性和犯罪的高科技性等特点进行新的解释和变动。传统的管辖规定将被害人所在地排除在管辖地之外,然而通过研究发现把被害人所在地作为管辖地更能满足打击网络诈骗犯罪的需要。     

The devil we know and the angel that did not fly: An examination of devil/angel shift in twitter fracking “debates” in NY 2008–2018

Recent work has applied the Narrative Policy Framework (NPF) to examine narrative strategies in policy debates on social media platforms. We contribute to the literature by applying the NPF to fracking policy debates in New York using well-established Natural Language Processing tools, including sentiment analysis. We combine this computational approach with a qualitative hand-coding of pro- and antifracking Twitter influentials. This approach allows us to consider a much larger corpus of tweets over a much longer time frame than has been done thus far. We adapt and test NPF propositions related to the use of the devil/angel shift strategies before and after a major state-wide policy change, that is, a state-wide moratorium on high volume hydraulic fracturing or fracking. Overall, we find evidence for the use of the devil shift narrative strategy by the pro-fracking coalition aimed at the Governor prior to the moratorium. After the moratorium, the relative percentage of Tweets containing devil shift sentiments decreases as the pro-fracking coalition generally downshifts in its use of angel shift language without a corresponding increase in devil shift language, whereas, conversely, the anti-fracking coalition generally downshifts in its use of devil shift language without a general increase in angel shift language. When we shifted our analysis to Tweets containing fracking and the Governor, we found a similar postban decrease in devil shift language among anti-fracking users. Our findings offer lessons for using computational tools in the NPF as an approach to expand analytic ability and for the operationalization of concepts such as narrative strategies and policy entrepreneurs.
