Introduction
摘要
The widespread recognition of fundamental rights to informational privacy and data protection is arguably one of the most far-reaching developments in European, if not Western, human rights discourse since the second half of the twentieth century. Such rights to privacy and data protection present adjudicators with a number of rather extraordinary difficulties. One concept that ever more jurisdictions and legal agents are employing to address these difficulties is the notion of “reasonable expectations of privacy”. The introductory chapter first explicates this relation between the juridification of privacy and the concept of “reasonable expectations of privacy”. It subsequently offers an outline of the book’s structure and contents.
