OverviewProviding comparative analysis that examines both Western and non-Western legal systems, this wide-ranging Handbook expands and enriches the existing privacy and defamation law literature and addresses the fundamental issues facing today's scholars and practitioners. Comparative Privacy and Defamation provides insightful commentary on issues of theory and doctrine, including the challenges of General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) and the impact of new technologies on the law. Chapters explore the origins and development of the right to privacy, privacy rights of photographic subjects and defamation by photo-manipulation, and the right to be forgotten. Containing contributions from expert international scholars, this comprehensive Handbook investigates the liability of internet intermediaries in cases of defamation and the emerging problem of global injunctions before concluding with eight country focussed studies. Engaging and accessible, this Handbook will be a key resource for students and scholars researching in the fields of privacy and defamation law, internet and technological law and information and media law.

More wide-ranging and in-depth than other similar publications, the book is a remarkable contribution to international, foreign, and comparative law. Its topical comprehensiveness and authorial diversity and prestige will make the volume a must read for those interested in the subject.' -- Kyu Ho Youm, University of Oregon, US 'Wragg and Koltay's thought-provoking book makes an important contribution to the literature. They have brought together an impressive group of experts from the world scene. Whereas most books speak narrowly to the Western picture of defamation and privacy law, theirs is a refreshing take by bringing in wider, global perspectives. In doing so, they are strikingly effective in raising new ideas and asking new questions at a time when the political climate is calling out for both.' -- Alastair Mullis, University of Leeds, UK 'Wragg and Koltay's thought-provoking book makes an important contribution to the literature.
