Legal And Ethical Issues Associated With Employee Use Of Social Networks, Gundars Kaupins, Susan Park

Susan Park

Social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter can help employees enhance a company’s marketing, recruiting, security, and safety. However, employee’s use of social networking sites and employers’ access of those sites can result in illegal and unethical behavior, such as discrimination and privacy invasions. Companies must gauge whether and how to rely upon employees’ use of personal social networking sites and how much freedom employees should have in using networks inside and outside of the companies. This research summarizes the latest legal and ethical issues regarding employee use of social networks and provides recommended corporate policies.

Wim Van Opstal

De sector van de bijzondere jeugdzorg bevindt zich op een scharniermoment. Op 1 maart 2014 treedt immers de integrale jeugdhulp in heel Vlaanderen in werking.

Het doel is immers dat elke jongere met een probleem zo snel mogelijk de juiste hulp vindt. Door in te grijpen op de organisatie en de werking van de bestaande jeugdhulp, wordt het nieuwe landschap veel overzichtelijker, in het bijzonder voor de cliënt maar ook voor de jeugdhulpverleners zelf.

De sector van de bijzondere jeugdzorg staat in …


Prohibition And The American Dream: An Analysis Of The Entrepreneurial Life And Times Of Al Capone, Waata Hipango Jr., Robert Smith, Leo Paul Dana Jan 2014

Prohibition And The American Dream: An Analysis Of The Entrepreneurial Life And Times Of Al Capone, Waata Hipango Jr., Robert Smith, Leo Paul Dana

Leo- Paul Dana

The iconic figure of Al Capone is arguably the most prominent figure of organised crime. Both biographers and scholars have analysed his life and behaviour. Hollywood has immortalised his character in film. Today, the name Capone remains synonymous with the word gangster. Although Capone owned businesses of a legitimate nature, illicit ventures and the spectre of the gangster-entrepreneur define his practice of entrepreneurship. In an attempt to understand Capone as an entrepreneur, this paper explores his entrepreneurial behaviour within an analysis of his resource profile, his Italian-American culture and the social context of the USA in the early 20th century.

Corporate Social Responsibility In A Remedy-Seeking Society: A Public Choice Perspective, Donald J. Kochan

Donald J. Kochan

Written for the Chapman Law Review Symposium on “What Can Law & Economics Teach Us About the Corporate Social Responsibility Debate?,” this Article applies the lessons of public choice theory to examine corporate social responsibility. The Article adopts a broad definition of corporate social responsibility activism to include both (1) those efforts that seek to convince corporations to voluntarily take into account corporate social responsibility in their own decision-making, and (2) the efforts to alter the legal landscape and expand legal obligations of corporations beyond traditional notions of harm and duty so as to force corporations to invest in interests …
