Bessant, Claire. "Protecting Victims of Domestic Violence—Have We Got the Balance Right?" Journal of Criminal Law 79, no. 2 (April 2015): 102–21. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0022018315574820.
Full textAbstract:
That states should act to prevent domestic violence and protect victims is clearly acknowledged in international law. Yet international law confirms also that victims, perpetrators and their families have rights to privacy, to a family life and to a home. The extent to which rights to respect for private and family life should be interfered with in order to protect victims remains in dispute. With the aim of improving the protection afforded to domestic violence victims in England and Wales, in 2011–2012 the police and courts piloted the use of two new short-term protective measures; domestic violence protection notices and orders. Between 2012 and 2013 the police also piloted the domestic violence disclosure scheme, which saw prospective victims provided with information about their partner’s previous violent behaviour. The disclosure scheme and the domestic violence protection orders and notices were rolled out nationally in March 2014. In this article, consideration is given to the impact these two initiatives will have on the privacy of victims and perpetrators, an issue not considered in government evaluations of the pilots. This article analyses whether the roll-out of these new initiatives is justified, given their potential for interference in private and family life.

"Community Living, Intellectual Disability and Extensive Support Needs: A Rights-Based Approach to Assessment and Intervention."

Full textAbstract:
People with intellectual disability (ID) and extensive support needs experience poorer quality of life than their peers whose disability is not as severe. Many of them live in residential settings that limit community participation and prevent them from exercising control over their lives. This work analyzes the extent to which professional practices are aimed at promoting the right to community living for people with ID and extensive support needs, as well as the rights that are particularly linked to it, such as the right to habilitation and rehabilitation and the right to privacy. A specific questionnaire was designed and administered to 729 adults with intellectual disability (M = 37.05; DT = 12.79) living in different settings (family home, residential facilities and group homes). Measurement and structural models were estimated using exploratory structural equation modeling. Results obtained reveal that people with extensive support needs receive less support in terms of guaranteeing their right to independent living and privacy, especially when they live in disability-related services. This study highlights the need to implement and monitor, using valid and reliable indicators, mesosystem strategies that guarantee the right to live and participate in the community, especially for individuals with ID and extensive support needs.

Full textAbstract:
Many Roma, gypsies and travellers live in caravans or trailers, sometimes in together trailer parks or camps. This article analyses how this specific lifestyle connected to their housing is protected under the various regimes and provisions of international human rights law. Home and adequate housing, as well as family life and private life, are clearly protected under international human rights law. Moreover, Roma, gypsies and travellers are considered vulnerable communities for whom special measures need to be taken. States are for instance obliged to take the specific cultural interests related to the housing of Roma, gypsies and travellers into account. Although there is no accepted right to be provided with a home of choice, these rights imply an obligation to provide suitable alternative housing in cases of forced removal and sufficient procedural guarantees. This article is based on an analysis of several provisions in international and European human rights treaties covering non-discrimination, housing, private life and family life, including their interpretation by treaty monitoring bodies.

Full textAbstract:
Private life, family life, home and correspondence represent some of the most intimate and significant aspects of human life. The focus of this paper is an analysis of the right to respect for private life, family life, home and correspondence, as the elements of the protection of the Article 8 of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. The analysis was primarily conducted through research and interpretation of the European Court of Human Rights recent case law, whereby, some of the cases of the highest importance as well as the case of the Republic of Serbia as a respondent state, were specially observed.

Full textAbstract:
The spat at the 2011 Conservative Party conference between the Home Secretary and the Lord Chancellor showed how contentious human rights legislation remains. Although Theresa May portrayed the claimant as having won the Article 8 right to remain in Britain because of his relationship with his cat, the judge had simply accepted the cat as one piece of evidence that the claimant had a genuine family life with his partner. The Home Secretary's principal point was that the right to respect for private and family life under section 8.1 of the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (ECHR) should be read in conjunction with section 8.2, which adds that such rights should not be overridden except where it isnecessary in a democratic society in the interests of national security, public safety, or the economic well-being of the country, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, or for the protection of the rights and freedoms of others.

Full textAbstract:
SummaryThe introduction of the supervised community treatment order (CTO) was a major and significant change to the Mental Health Act 1983 following the 2007 amendments to the Act. Owing to paternalistic aspects of psychiatry, such new legislation brings with it the potential to impinge on the human rights of patients. Any new legislation must be read and implemented to be compliant with the Human Rights Act 1998. Of all the articles comprising the Human Rights Act, Article 3 (the right to freedom from inhuman and degrading treatment), Article 5 (the right to liberty and security) and Article 8 (the right to respect for family and private life, home and correspondence) are of particular relevance to CTOs. We consider here the potential implications of the use of CTOs with regard to the Human Rights Act.

Full textAbstract:
The European Convention on Human Rights is one of the manifestations of the Council of Europe, an organisation of European states founded in 1949 with the aim of strengthening the common democratic heritage. It is an international treaty which binds the contracting States to respect the list of human rights and freedoms it proclaims. An enforcement mechanism exists in the form of the European Court of Human Rights (in this paper called ‘the Strasbourg court’).In brief, these rights and freedoms are the right to life (art. 2); freedom from torture or inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment (art. 3); freedom from slavery or forced labour (art. 4); the right to liberty (art. 5); the right to a fair trial (art. 6); freedom from retrospective criminal laws (art. 7); the right to respect for private and family life, home and correspondence (art. 8); freedom of thought, conscience and religion (art. 9); freedom of expression (art. 10); freedom of peaceful assembly (art. 11); and the right to marry and found a family (art. 12). Over the years, this initial list of rights has been expanded by a series of additional Protocols — not all of which have been ratified by all the Member States. The First Protocol, which Britain has ratified, guarantees the right to peaceful enjoyment of possessions, education, and free elections.

Abstract This article reflects on COVID-19 restrictions imposed on elders in Ireland through the lens of the right to private and family life (Article 8 ECHR), focusing on stay at home orders and recommendations advising elders to avoid social contact. Furthermore, we examine restrictions on visiting nursing homes given the high death toll in that setting. In our analysis, we zero in on the principles of foreseeability and proportionality, highlighting areas of concern and aspects that we submit should be considered in a proportionality assessment. Ultimately, we argue that it is a mistake to view the COVID-19 pandemic solely as an emergency. In this manner, the solutions suggested through the law – restrictions on movement and visitation bans – are too narrow and fail to address the underlying structures, such as, issues in the healthcare system, the limited home help for elderly and poor conditions in nursing homes.

Full textAbstract:
The authors analyse the national protection from emissions, in the first place, a property law component of this regime. Domestic regulation of the protection of property rights from harassment was brought in the perspective of the protection that the European Court of Human Rights provides for the right to live in a healthy environment, primarily through the protection of rights under Art. 8 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (right to respect for private and family life and home). In the context of the latter, the authors have analysed the interpretative methods used by the European Court and explored the following features: the requirement that environmental and environmental impacts and disturbances violate the Convention right, that is, the existence of a specific Convention causal link; the category of minimum level of severity; oscillation of the "quantum" of minimum level of severity within conventional "fluctuations"; and the scope (and type) of protecting the right to live in a healthy environment through the paradigm of the positive / negative obligations of the Contracting States.

Zusammenfassung Arbeit im Homeoffice verspricht, berufliche und familiale Pflichten besser vereinbaren zu können. Die rechtspolitische Debatte um einen Rechtsanspruch auf Homeoffice wurde von der gegenwärtigen pandemiebedingten Ausnahmesituation nahezu überholt. Für viele Dienststellen und Unternehmen ist die Weiterarbeit der Beschäftigten im Homeoffice unverzichtbar. Trotz aller Chancen zeigen Untersuchungen, dass Homeoffice oft misslingt und als Flexibilisierungsstrategie auf vier Dilemmata trifft: (1) Anordnung vs. Freiwilligkeit; (2) Kontrolle der Arbeitsleistung vs. Privatheit, (3) reine Output-Orientierung vs. betriebliche Sozialintegration und (4) Arbeitsunterstützung vs. bloßes Zugeständnis. Unter Verweis auf empirische Untersuchungen wird aufgezeigt, unter welchen tatsächlichen Bedingungen sich welche Dilemmata verwirklichen bzw. wie diese verhindert oder positiv gewendet werden können. Im Anschluss werden der rechtliche Hintergrund umrissen und bestehende Regulierungslücken aufgezeigt. Der Beitrag schließt mit konkreten Vorschlägen für den weiteren empirischen Forschungs- und regulatorischen Handlungsbedarf. Abstract: Homeoffice As Solution For Reconciling Work And Family Life? Sociological And Jurisprudential Perspectives Home-based telework promises to reconcile work and family duties better than less flexible work arrangements. However, implementing home-based telework faces four dilemmas that have to be solved in one or the other direction: (1) unsolicited telework versus employer’s latitude to enact it; (2) the right of the employer to observe and control telework at home versus protection of privacy; (3) focus solely on results versus social integration through physical presence at the workplace; and (4) home-based telework as compensating differential versus career support. We give an overview of existing studies to highlight supportive conditions as well as pitfalls to implement home-based telework in ways that avoid negative consequences when solving these dilemmas. A specific focus is on the role of law and jurisdiction. Finally, we discuss solutions for a successful implementation and point to existing gaps at the levels of the legal, institutional and informal regulation of home-based telework.

Full textAbstract:
In this 21st century, social media has taken over as a dominant form of social interaction and the recent COVID-19 quarantine or ‘stay at home’ during Movement Control Order (MCO) has left many even more dependent on social media to stay in touch with family, friends and the outside world. Many parents are unaware of the risks associated with excessive sharing of detailed information about their children online and that oversharing information about children on social media poses immediate and long-term risks to the children’s physical safety, online privacy, and emotional well-being. Thus, it is critical for parents to understand these risks and realize that their children’s right to privacy and safety supersedes the benefits of sharenting. By using a qualitative analysis on library-based sources, the objective of this study is to determine whether the COVID-19 response measures of MCO altered the practice of sharenting by parents. This study will be focusing on the type or content of sharing by parents of the images, videos, stories, and daily activities of their children throughout the quarantine period and the possible future implications to the children. Further, this study intends to understand the effect of ‘pranks’ played on the children to record their reaction which is trending in social media during the said quarantine period. The study concludes that since it is hard to disapprove of sharenting in today’s advancement of technology and the existence of various social media platforms, parents should always keep in mind the adverse effects of sharenting. Instead, the parents are best to value the quarantine time at home with the children with only minimal and suitable sharing to the social media for the safety and privacy of the children.

AbstractThis paper will analyse the essential legal requirements of the European Convention on Human Rights which touch on the lives (and deaths) of people with mental disabilities. It will examine the procedural safeguards which must be followed when involuntarily detaining a person under mental health legislation; access to a court to test the lawfulness of detention; the requirement to be free from torture, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment; the right to respect for private and family life, home and correspondence; and the right to life, including investigation after a death. The paper will discuss some of the factors which explain the relative scarcity of mental disability cases decided by the Strasbourg Court. In conclusion there will be an examination of the role of lawyers and other key players in mental disability, and how stakeholders can move forward to prompt much needed social reform.

Full textAbstract:
This article examines the legal and ethical rationale for the deportation of ‘foreign criminals’ who have established their homes in the United Kingdom. It argues that provisions relating to automatic deportation constitute a second punishment that can be more accurately described as banishment. The human rights of those defined as ‘foreign criminals’ have been reduced to privileges that are easily withdrawn with reference to the ill-defined public interest. The ability to challenge deportation is then compromised by a non-suspensive appeal process that deliberately undermines the right to an effective remedy whilst further damaging private and family life. With reference to social membership and domicile theories of belonging, it is suggested that those who have made their lives in the UK and established their place and domicile here should be regarded as unconditional members of civil society. As such, they are entitled to equality of treatment in the criminal justice system and should be immune from punitive ‘crimmigration’ measures.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to issues of personal non-property rights which ensure social existence of the Internet user as an natural person. It is emphasized that Internet user, as a participant in civil law relations related to protection and defense of personal non-property rights, is endowed with all powers that determine general legal status of a participant in similar law relations. The peculiarities of the Internet user’s exercise of certain personal non-property rights are highlighted, which are due to nature of Internet relations. They reflect specifics of human communication in the Internet environment. At the same time, threats that require formation of a separate mechanism to ensure the protection the personal non-property rights of Internet users are increasing proportionately. Thus, civil law doctrine should take into account need to supplement existing theory of personal non-property rights with new elements that affect the status of a natural person as a participant in civil law relations. The specifics of Internet user’s legal status in the context of his personal non-property rights when performing certain actions on the Internet is: in moment of occurrence the legal status of Internet user as a holder of personal non-property rights; in ensuring principle of equality of all Internet users, regardless of their status in the field of private or public law relations; in compliance with specific requirements for individualization of Internet user. It is determined that Internet user acts in the Internet environment through the complex of individualizing features which include: avatar, nickname, online style (image), text information (post), which accompanied by photos, videos, information that defines Internet user’s list of tastes, comments of Internet user are placed under posts of other users, digital signature on the Internet. Key words: Internet user, personal non-property rights, right to family, right to name, right to respect for honor and dignity; the right to inviolability of business reputation, the right to freedom, the right to individuality, the right to personal papers, the right to secrecy of correspondence, the right to inviolability of the home, the right to freedom of movement, the right to freedom of association.

Full textAbstract:
In this article, special attention will be given to the recent judgment of the European Court of Human Right in the case of Akdivar and Others v. Turkey. Since 1985, a violent conflict has raged in the South-Eastern region of Turkey, between the Turkish security forces and sections of the Kurdish population in favour of Kurdish autonomy, in particular members of the PKK (Workers' Party of Kurdistan). Since 1987, 10 of the 11 provinces of South-Eastern Turkey have been subjected to emergency rule, which was in force at the time of the facts complained of. The main issue in this case concerned the fact that during this conflict, a large number of villages have been destroyed and evacuated by the security forces. According to the applicants, the alleged burning of their houses by the security forces constituted, inter alia, a violation of Article 3 (the prohibition of torture and inhuman treatment or punishment) and Article 8 (the right of respect for private life, family life, and home) of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), and Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 (property rights).

Full textAbstract:
We would assume that mass newspaperdom which is slowly introduced by the end of the XlXth century was tributary to the dominant conception of liberties which attributed rights to the householder and garanteed the privacy of the home. The evocation of these rights would then give rise to hesitations to intervene publicly in family quarrels. But, a documentary research of the Quebec daily La Presse reveals, on the contrary, that it proceeded to expose virulently cases of domestic violence in such a way that husbands became the main target of sarcasm. Therefore, unlike the ideological positions generally conceded to the Victorian project, the general tendancy to reduce the Victorian moralism to two main angles — being the purification of sexual behaviors and the promotion of a holy, asexual and family image of women — is questioned. The social project of the XlXth century appears more complex than what is generally thought since it proceeds not only to subject women but looks concurrently to “civilize” and moral-he the conduct of men.

Full textAbstract:
In this evidence-informed decision making case study report, the authors discuss three public health concerns: (1) home food preparation businesses, (2) right of entry into a private residence, and (3) food contamination by newspaper ink including chronic health effects related to other trace toxins exposure. Home food preparation businesses have proliferated throughout Ontario following the prevalence of Internet access. Private residences are increasingly used for the preparation of food for public consumption, offering a full array of products, and extending in scope to encompass a broad range of commercial catering businesses. The major concerns for Public Health are a lack of food safety knowledge and inadequate facilities to protect food from contamination and adulteration at these home-based businesses. Legal restrictions limit Public Health Inspectors’ access to a private residence, regardless of the known or anticipated health concerns. In this particular case, food was prepared in the garage of a single-family home and then delivered by truck to commercial units in a strip plaza for further processing. In this case, chemical contamination of food from the use of recycled newspaper to drain excess cooking oil from fried donuts raised serious health concerns. Researchers report that newspaper ink contains ingredients such as Naphthylamine, amoratic hydrocarbons, and other aryl hydrocarbon receptor agonists that have multiple negative health effects.

Allegiance is due, under God, to the head of the family from his dependents, as to a king; and though I confess with shame that I have been a weak and faithless ruler hitherto, the time has come for me to exert my authority in removing the abuses which I have allowed to creep into my jurisdiction … I have been close to death, and have realised that sooner or later I must give account to God not only for myself but for my family.In a bleak and diseased Delhi, sometime after the wanton British decimation of the city in the wake of the 1857 rebellion, a Muslim nobleman by the name of Nasuh succumbs to the city’s recent cholera epidemic. After Nasuh falls unconscious, his father, who had recendy died in the same outbreak, appears to him in a dream. He tells his son that a day of reckoning awaits, and that as a father it is Nasuh’s duty to inculcate piety in his home. Surviving his illness, Nasuh sets about correcting the excesses of the various members of his family. These include his eldest daughter, who had such foolish habits as playing all night at cards, reading romances and singing idle songs; and his three sons, who were neglectful of their religious duties, read unsuitable poetry, flew kites and kept company with scandalous friends. Despite these blemishes in their household lives, Nasuh is able to persuade some members of his family of the rightness of his vision, turning his children into (respectively) a God-fearing wife and mother, and upstanding gendemen with right manners and good government professions. All are thus rewarded both in this world and the hereafter.

Full textAbstract:
Twenty years ago, just as the study of policy was emerging out of the morass of political history, historians of women rediscovered the state. What I will name the policy turn challenged a kind of intellectual separate sphere in which women's history addressed home, family, and intimate life and left to other historians everything else. The policy turn shifted attention from Carroll Smith Rosenberg's “Female World of Love and Ritual” without losing the self-activity and focus on female difference that investigations of women on their own terms had supplied. It answered the “Politics and Culture” debate of 1980, which revolved around the efficacy of domesticity as an arena for power with a resounding move toward the public, political realm—namely, to social politics. The Reaganite assault on the New Deal order and accompanying New Right attack on women's rights intensified investigation into the origins and growth of a welfare state whose strength seemed precarious and whose history was up for grabs—a welfare state that blurred the separation of private and public and constructed, even as it reinforced, unequal social locations.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACTThere are at present two inconsistencies with respect to the sharing of personal health information (PHI) among health care professionals caring for a patient whom the information concerns. First, there is an inconsistency between what is in theory the ethics and law governing the confidentiality and privacy of this information—it may only be disclosed with informed consent—and what is the actual practice of health care professionals—they share it without such consent. Second, there is an inconsistency between what ethics and law demand in theory and what all parties want: They all approve of the current practice. Ethics and law can be brought into line with what is needed to act in the patient's best interests and with what people want, without opening up any serious potential for abuse of privacy and confidentiality, by establishing a safeguarded, provision-of-care exception that allows co-caring health care professionals to share patients' PHI. The requirements for a system establishing such safeguards are proposed. The basic governing presumption is respect for the person and for rights to autonomy, self-determination, privacy, and confidentiality. Therefore, disclosure may only be made with the informed consent of the competent person to whom the information pertains, unless a defence of necessity applies. Where there is doubt about someone's competence, there should likewise be doubt about disclosure without that person's informed consent. Where the person is incompetent, such a disclosure can be made to the patient's substitute decision makers, most often the family, if that is necessary for the care of the patient and in the patient's best interests. To the extent possible, consistent with the best interests of the patient, the wishes of incompetent people should be respected.

Background Violence is universal act that threatens life, health and happiness of all human beings. This includes threat, coercion and the arbitrary deprivation of resources. Violence against women is usually performed by a male partner. Violence against women is a global epidemic and gives physical, psychological, sexual and economical tortures. Every individual has basic right to live in their home peacefully, but women’s basic right is isolated due to violence. Violence against women is the most pervasive of human right violation. Methodology Qualitative research design was used for this study to explore perceptions, suffering, pain, feelings, opinion or views on violence against women. 20 female victims of the violence against women were selected for the study. Non-probability purposive sampling technique was used. In-depth interview guideline was used to collect the data. Thematic data analysis was done to explore to causes of violence against women. Results Most of the respondents were under 30 years. Married and illiterate were observed more victims of the violence against women. Main causes of violence were low status of women, illiteracy, economic dependence, patriarchal society. Other causes were inter-caste marriage, husband listening to other family members, sexual dissatisfaction, and unemployment, and extramarital relation of husband, suspicious attitude, gambling, and dowry system. Conclusion Violence against women has evolved as a part of a system of gender relation. Ideas of male supremacy, dominance over female are often reflected in societies and considered as private matter. Violence is continuing of beliefs that grant men right to control women’s behavior, violence, which results in injury of the victims.

Resumen:El artículo pretende analizar la evolución de la protección de la integridad personal en España desde la aprobación de la Constitución de 1978 hasta el presente.En primer lugar, se aborda el contexto en el que la Constitución fue aprobada y las opciones que al constituyente se le abrían. Se destaca que por primera vez en España se reconocía un específico derecho a la integridad, lo que no es habitual, al lado de la tradicional prohibición de torturas y penas o tratos inhumanos o degradantes que arrancó ya con la constitución de 1812.Era necesario analizar la protección de la integridad en el Derecho Internacional de los derechos humanos que España ha incorporado a su Orden jurídico, así como la Carta de Derechos fundamentales de la Unión Europea Que sí proclama el derecho a la integridad. En este sentido es destacable como el Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos ha inferido el derecho a la integridad de la forma más generosa a través de una interpretación evolutiva del derecho a la vida privada.Sin embargo, no es fácil determinar ni cuál es el bien jurídico protegido ni cuáles las posiciones iusfundamentales que contiene; es decir, qué se protege y cuáles son las situaciones de la vida cuya vulneración el titular del derecho puede defender, llegado el caso, activando la labor tutelar de los tribunales. Por ello ha sido fundamental también el intenso desarrollo legislativo que lo ha concretado en diversos sectores del ordenamiento así como las medidas de protección en favor de los más vulnerables.Summary:1. The 1978 Context in which the right to integrity was recognized. 1.1 Overview of International Law and Foreign Constitutional Law. 1.2 The options of the Constituent Power in the process of drafting Article 15 of the Spanish Constitution. 2. The evolutionary interpretation of international law. 2.1 The extension of the protection field of Article 3 ECHR. 2.2 The inclusion of contents of the right to integrity into the right to respect for private life. a) Right to a criminal protection of the integrity. b) Right to authorize or refuse medical treatments. c) Right to sexual and reproductive life. The problem of abortion. d) Face to pollution. e) In the home. 3. Specific recognition of the right to integrity in the charter of fundamental rights of the European Union. 4. Determination of the fundamental positions under the right to integrity. 4.1 Procedural violation of the prohibition of torture. 4.2 Regarding health protection and in the heath field. a) Overlap with the right to health. b) Consent to medical treatment. c) Donations and transplants. d) Abortion as a potential exercise of the right to integrity by the pregnant woman. f) In the field of medical and scientific experiments. 4.3 Right to integrity against pollution. 4.4 Right to protection. 4.5 The guarantee to not suffer legal physical interventions and the exclusion of the indemnity guarantee. 4.6 In the special relationships of subjection. 4.7 In the labor market. 5. Conclusion: what object and what content?AbstractThe article tries to analyze the evolution of the protection of integrity in Spain since the Constitution came into force in 1978. First of all, it is addressed the context in which the Constitution was approved as well as the options opened to Constituent Power. It is underlined that, for the first time in Spain, a specific right to integrity is declared, something unusual at that time, together with the traditional prohibition of torture and inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, already introduced in the Constitution of 1812.It was necessary to analyze how the protection of integrity in International Law on Human Rights, as well as the right to the integrity of the person, proclaimed specifically in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. In this sense, it is remarkable how the European Court of Human Rights has inferred a right to the integrity from the right to respect for private and family life, by interpreting evolutionarily the Convention.However, it is not easy to determine neither the object of the right to integrity nor what are the fundamental positions, the life situations, whose violation should permit person to claim in Courts of Justice, by activating their protective function. For the rest, it has also been crucial the intense legislative development that has implemented, in various sectors of the legal system,measures of protection in favor of the most vulnerable people.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this paper is to present a particular model of how Roman politics worked, and of what Roman politics before the Social War was ‘about’. In essence I want to place in the centre of our conception the picture of an orator addressing a crowd in the Forum; a picture of someone using the arts of rhetoric to persuade an anonymous crowd about something. The most important subject of oratory, and the most important fundamental right exercised by whoever came to vote, was legislation. Yet the greatest of all the extraordinary distortions which have been imposed on our conception of Republican politics in the twentieth century is that the process of legislation, and the content of the legislation passed by the people, have both ceased to be central to it. With that we have ceased to listen sufficiently to the actual content of oratory addressed to the people, to the arguments from rights, from the necessities of the preservation of the res publica, from historical precedents, both Roman and non-Roman, and from social attitudes and prejudices. In the second century above all, we can see how the prestige which the office-holding class derived from family descent and personal standing on the one hand was matched on the other by popular demands for appropriate conduct, and by popular suspicions of private luxury, of profiteering from the conduct of public affairs, and of improper collaboration with wrong-doers both at home and abroad.

Full textAbstract:
During the Soviet era, state or collective farms on the rangelands of Kazakstan moved livestock between winter, spring, summer and autumn pastures in different ecological zones. By the end of the Soviet era, livestock production was still based partly on the traditional migratory system, but had become heavily dependent on supplementary winter feed over the harsh winters. When the majority of former state and collective farms became cooperatives in the mid 1990s, they retained the same management structure, but individuals became members of the cooperatives or had the right to a share of the assets (e.g. livestock, machinery, access to land) and become private farmers. Many individuals, who remained cooperative members and are not private farmers, still keep private livestock. There are, in addition, an increasing number of private farmers. Most flock owners cannot now afford to follow a four-season migratory system of sheep management nor to obtain sufficient winter feed of good quality. Small-scale flock owners with less than about one hundred sheep lack the resources (e.g. family labour, transport) to move animals the long distance between the different pastures. There has been a large decrease in sheep numbers and there is now excess pasture in all ecological zones, as many sheep now spend the whole year within 10 km of the home village or private farm. However they need to be supplied with winter fodder since the vegetation ceases to grow in autumn and is often covered in snow from December to March. The aim of the present study was to determine current management practices and their effects on sheep productivity.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose This paper aims to analyse the extent to which the government’s recent proposals to end no-fault evictions will result in “family-friendly” tenancies. Design/methodology/approach It applies the theoretical scholarship on the meaning of family and home to the current law relating to private rented tenancies and the government’s proposals to increase security of tenure in the private rented sector. Findings Security of tenure is important to a number of the key aspects of home. However, feelings of home are better protected by security of occupancy, which requires more than de jure security of tenure. For families to feel at home in the private rented sector, they must be permitted to personalise their home and to keep pets. Further legislative changes could achieve these changes. However, for families to really make a home in the private rented sector, they need to exercise some choice over where they live and for low-income families; this will only be possible with broader policy changes. Originality/value This paper contributes to the important scholarship on the meaning of home and applies this to the very current debate on the rights of tenants in the private rented sector.

Full textAbstract:
The right to privacy is one of the most fundamental rights in American jurisprudence. In 1890, Samuel D. Warren and Louis D. Brandeis conceptualized the right to privacy as the right to be let alone and inspired privacy jurisprudence that tracked their initial description. Warren and Brandeis conceptualized further that this right was not exclusively meant to protect one’s body or physical property. Privacy rights were protective of “the products and the processes of the mind” and the “inviolate personality.” Privacy was further understood to protect the ability to “live one’s life as one chooses, free from assault, intrusion or invasion except as can be justified by the clear needs of community living under a government of law.” Case law supported and extended their theorization by recognizing that privacy is essentially bound up in an individual’s ability to live a self-authored and self-curated life without unnecessary intrusions and distractions. Hence, privacy may be viewed as the right of individuals to be and become themselves. This right is well-established; however, scholars have vastly undertheorized the right to privacy as it intersects with racial discrimination and childhood. Specifically, the ways in which racial discrimination strips Black people—and therefore Black children—of privacy rights and protections, and the ways in which Black people reclaim and reshape those rights and protections remain a dynamic and fertile space, ripe for exploration yet unacknowledged by privacy law scholars. The most vulnerable members of the Black population, children, rely on their parents to protect their rights until they are capable of doing so themselves. Still, the American education system exposes Black children to racial discrimination that results in life-long injuries ranging from the psychological harms of daily racial micro-aggressions and assaults, to disproportionate exclusionary discipline and juvenile incarceration. One response to these ongoing and often traumatic incursions is a growing number of Black parents have decided to remove their children from traditional school settings. Instead, these parents provide their children with home-education in order to protect their children’s right to be and become in childhood.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to review and discuss evidence of good practice in respecting care home residents’ right to privacy. The right to privacy is a fundamental human right as enshrined in international and domestic law and standards. In the context of increasing interest in using a human rights approach to social care in care homes for older people, this literature review summarises research evidence on what respecting the human right to privacy of care home residents entails in practice. Design/methodology/approach This literature review followed a rigorous systematic approach to the scoping review, inspired by the Joanna Biggs Institute’s guidelines for conducting systematic reviews. A total of 12 articles were included in the review. Findings The research took a multidimensional understanding of privacy in their studies. The dimensions can be categorised as physical, inter-relational or related to personal data. The review highlights three good practice points. First, it is good privacy practice in care homes to make available single-occupancy bedrooms to residents since this offers the opportunity to personalising this physical space with furniture and web belongings, adding a sense of ownership over the space. Second, residents appreciate being able to choose when and how they spend their time in their own bedrooms. Third, it is good practice to respect residents’ private physical space and private choices, for example by knocking on doors before entering or agreeing with the resident when it is permissible to enter. The review also found that in some studies privacy considerations were relevant to communal living areas within care homes, including the use of surveillance cameras and the sharing of personal data. Originality/value This literature review adds to the body of academic literature on human rights and social care in practice. It also highlights areas for future research relating to the right to privacy in care homes.

Full textAbstract:
Decisions of the United States Supreme Court beginning with Griswold v. Connecticut (1965) have transformed family law in the United States. By characterizing the right to marry as a fundamental constitutional right and procreative decision-making as both a fundamental liberty interest and privacy right, the Court has “deregulated” the institutions of marriage and family. During this same period the Court’s approach to legal questions involving the rights of non-marital cohabitating couples as well as individual procreative decision-making has tended to blur legal distinctions between the family based upon marriage and other living arrangements. The widespread adoption of mutual consent and/or marital breakdown as grounds for the dissolution of marriage in the United States has significantly altered the social dynamics of marriage and further reduces distinctions between marriage and other living arrangements. However, recent decisions by the Court in Hardwick, Michael H., and Webster point to a change of direction in the Court’s view of privacy which may signal a willingness to tolerate greater community involvement in establishing protective regulation of the institutions of marriage and the family based upon it. The Court also appears to be in the process of significantly narrowing the constitutionally recognized right of privacy when viewed as a zone of autonomous decision-making for the individual or non-marital couple.

The present unbridled advancement in the field of information and communication technology has resulted in individuals being thrust at a crossroad, where refusing to sacrifice one’s privacy would mean the denial of technological benefits. Concern for privacy begins once a child is born into this world where the right to privacy could now be argued needs to be considered as one of the basic human rights similar to other inalienable rights such as the right to life and liberties. Bangladesh is one of the countries that has not given explicit recognition to the right of privacy. This is evident from the absence of explicit indications of the right to privacy in the Constitution of Bangladesh and judicial interventions make the constitutional protection of privacy questionable. The purpose of the present study is to find out whether the right to privacy is in fact recognized and protected by the Constitution of Bangladesh by examining specific provisions in the Constitution of Bangladesh to locate provisions that could be relied on to show that a sliver of recognition could be given to the right of privacy in Bangladesh. This position is then compared to other jurisdictions, especially the common law jurisdictions. The study finds that although Article 43 of the Constitution guarantees limited protection that encompasses the right to privacy of home and correspondence but if read together with the right to life and liberty in Article 32, it could be argued that these are viable provisions in recognizing the right to privacy under the Constitution of Bangladesh.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractWomen's domestic work is largely deemed to be a ‘labour of love’ and lacking any value outside the private family. This reflects an ‘ideology of domesticity’, whereby women's natural place is deemed to be in an imagined private sphere. In this paper, I examine the status of housework in the context of asserting property rights in the home upon relationship breakdown. Using Valverde's legal chronotope as a lens, I argue that the ideology of domesticity is not merely present in legal discourse, but also takes on material form through the spatiotemporal ordering of the home. Housework is spatially and temporally concealed behind the powerful veneer of the imagined ideal family home, with corresponding invisibility in the law. For domestic work to be acknowledged, the individual often has to demonstrate that her work transgresses boundaries between private and public. However, as I argue, this transgression is particularly difficult for women, who remain spatiotemporally anchored in the home.

The effect of various urban problems and the increasing of advanced information technology, leading the concept of SOHO (Small Office Home Office) as an alternative solution in operating small- to medium-scale home-based business are set to have significant application in recent years in Indonesia. Yet the context of residential home as a private space for activity of a family live is resulting in chances of privacy conflicts when it is matched to concept of SOHO application inclining to have social and open-ended characteristics for the public. Therefore, the privacy control is necessary for maintaining dweller’s privacy and homeostatic condition in residential home.The aim of this research was to understand how was the pattern of privacy control by means of visual, audio, and olfactory interaction that take place in 10 residential home units chosen for object of study. This research is a qualitative study which delivered descriptively through interpretative analysis using theory of Behavior Setting approach, and such supporting theories as dwelling theory, theory of adaptation and adjustment, theory of privacy, territorial, and personal space. The results of the research shown that the privacy control pattern is more intomanaging visual interaction related to privacy by means of privacy artifact control, differentiation of floor level or using verbal language. Overall results of analysis of privacy control variable are then proposed as tendency of dweller privacy control design to apply concept of SOHO to residential home.

The article is devoted to the study of the compliance of the rights and obligations of the person authorized to perform the functions of the state or local government to the right to respect for private life, including the submitting and publishing property declaration. The author determines the approaches of national and foreign researchers to the essence of the concept of the right to privacy and concludes that it is a natural right, that includes the right to respect for private and family life, housing and correspondence. The norms of the Constitution of Ukraine and the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms of 1950 concerning the human right to privacy are revealed. It іs determined that one of the main reasons for the need to introduce in Ukraine the institution of declaring for officials of public authorities is the obligation of Ukraine to comply with the United Nations Convention against Corruption, and found that domestic law is stricter than the Convention. It is concluded that human rights are the priority area of state protection, so the requirements of anti- corruption legislation on disclosure of information about personal and family life of persons, authorized to perform state and local government functions, in the declaration and access of such information is a violation of Art. 8 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and Art. 8, 32 of the Constitution of Ukraine. The author affirms that the disclosure of such a volume of information about any person is an indisputable violation of his right to privacy and family life. Key words: the right to privacy; the right to respect for private and family life; a person authorized to perform the functions of the state and local self-government; declaration; prevention of corruption.

Background and context: The Constitution of Ecuador provides the right to free and specialized attention. The state has fallen short due various reasons: limited political support, weak infrastructure and limited resources, inadequate cancer information system, lack of integration and coordination of efforts to control the disease, scarce research, lack of monitoring and evaluation of interventions and social inequity. Agreement Against Cancer was born aiming to improve disease control and priority attention with a comprehensive approach: health promotion and prevention, early detection, adequate treatment, rehabilitation and palliative care: it adheres 18 organizations who have worked in the promotion and defense of the rights of cancer patients. Aim: Raise the national debate around cancer and influence in public policies to combat this catastrophic disease. Strategy/Tactics: 1) Social mobilization to awaken interest in the disease: 2) Proposal of a bill to fight cancer and include the issue in the public agenda Program/Policy process: Acc decided to act on 3 axis: Social: strategy to fight cancer was established: 1. Creation of National Cancer Control Council 2. Investigation 3. Prevention 4. Integral attention: timely diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation, palliative care, access to blood products, emotional health 5. Education 6. Labor security 7. Mobility: transparent, prehospital care, hostels and home 8. Family surroundings 9. Infrastructure 10. Economic fund Communication: This proposal was taken to the 8 presidential candidates in 2017. Emphasis was placed on digital communication. A public relations campaign mobilized the media, stakeholders and opinion makers. The problem was risen at a national level and citizens demanded a response from the authorities, private company and other actors in society. However, this social demand needed a channel to introduce it to the government´s agenda. Political: it was decided the construction of a bill, that required the submission of citizen signatures to reach the National Assembly. A campaign was launched to collect a minimum of 35,000. Outcomes: • Approximately 150,000 citizens signed; more than 5000 volunteers mobilized. • Concert for Life, participation of more than 10,000 people. • Support of 8 presidential candidates. • Bill proposed to the National Assembly. Validation of 111,157 signatures. The bill meets all the requirements necessary by the law and is awaiting its analysis. What was learned: 1. Cancer management from the legal, political and social point of view. 2. Reality of cancer patients. 3. Collaborative network. 4. Public–private articulation to promote citizen initiatives. 5. Social mobilization supported by new technologies. 6. Use of volunteers and training. 7. Citizen participation mechanisms and their empowerment. 8. Structuring process of a bill.

Faced with protecting the right to privacy and, with it, the inviolability of homes, the development of new technologies and the possibility of developing work from home has opened the door to a series of new conflicts that require us to provide a specific legal framework by which such situations can be addressed. In the Spanish case, we speak of Law 10/2021 from 9 July on remote working. The objective of this study is to assess the scope as well as the problems that this law generates during its application, regarding controlling the provision of services. However, we not only identify the incidental factors, but also provide a necessary reinterpretation of the right to privacy from the perspective of the inviolability of homes, especially when its current articulation may operate to the detriment of employees’ rights, as contradictory as this may seem.

Full textAbstract:
For centuries, violence against women was restricted to the privacy of the home, the observation of neighbors and interference of a few family members. Is configured in a complex and controversial issue that involves moral concepts, dynamics of power/affection, subordination/domination, therefore "private" and difficult to approach. In this context, the home becomes therefore, scenary to fights, jealousy, aggression scenes in which the only spectators are the children. This space, preserved as inviolable, does not allow others to interfere, leaving increasingly confined women to this situation. Violence against women is associated with high economic costs, social, and health, making it a complex and comprehensive phenomenon, both because of issues related to the domination/submission involving gender relations, as those pertaining to physical and mental health of victimized women. The latter are not always displayed but expressed through psychosomatic symptoms which may be prolonged and chronic. The data of this violence become more visible as they seek public service to women care, and have shown alarming proportions, given the 2014 Balance Call 180, available in March 2015, presenting a total of 52,957 reports of violence against women. Of these, 51.68% refers to physical violence; 31.81% to psychological violence; 9.68% to moral violence; 1.94% to financial abuse; 2.86% sexual violence; 1.76% to imprisonment; and 0.26% human trafficking¹. In terms of public policy, by 2003, Brazil had the Special Police and shelter homes to care for women in situations of violence. Notably, in the last 10 years, the country has invested more in these policies, such as the creation in 2003 of the Secretariat on Policies for Women; in 2005, the National Plan of Policies for Women and the implementation of Call Center Women through Dial 180 and the following year with Law 11.340/2006, called Maria da Penha Law, through which actually creates mechanisms for prevent domestic and family violence against women¹. The Call 180, is now considered the main door of access to services that integrate the National Network to Fight Violence Against Women and privileged database for the formulation of policies of the Federal Government in this area. Started as a channel for advice on public rights and services aimed at female population across the country and from the Law No. 13,025/2014 began to perform the reception and orientation, directing complaints to the competent organs of research, with the assaulted woman's consent and, more recently, expanding the services to other countries such as Portugal, Spain and Italy. Other efforts have also been announced, such as the National Pact to Combat Violence against Women, launched in 2007. This is an agreement between the Federal Government and the state governments and Brazilian Municipal planning actions that enable the consolidation of National Policy on Combating Violence against Women. In 2011 launches the Fight Network violence against women and, more recently, in 2013, by Decree No. 8086, instituted the program "Woman: live without violence", whose axes include, among others, the implementation of the House of Brazilian Women, the organization and humanization of care for victims of sexual violence, the implementation and maintenance of the service to Women centers in the regions of dry border, continued awareness campaigns and mobile units for assistance to women in situations of violence the county and in forest². Giving reinforcement, especially to sexual violence against women, the Government launched in March 2015, the Interministerial Ordinance no. 288/2015 laying down guidelines for the organization and integration of care for victims of sexual violence by law enforcement professionals and health professionals of the Unified Health System (SUS) about the humanization of care and the registration of information and collection of traces². Many are government efforts to deal with violence against women. However, the effectiveness of these policies still needs better coordination with the assistance and legal network, training of health professionals for the recognition of such violence and adequacy of services to make more humane care and work on this issue in schools, with adolescents and women and men in all living spaces. Violence against women is a cruel and unjust reality that needs space in nursing reflections so that professionals are fully aware of the repercussions of this phenomenon and give emphasis to a new way of thinking and acting. These professionals can provide link to support women, whether in health issues and in the guidance to find own ways or direct it to other services in order to contribute to improving the life of this woman.

Abstract This study aimed to contribute to understanding older adults’ perspectives on privacy related to in-home monitoring by analyzing factors influencing the willingness to share their information collected by in-home monitoring systems. Study participants were interviewed at local senior centers in South Korea (N=170; mean age=77; 45.9% women). One out of eight (13.5%) participants did not want to share their information with anyone. Participants were more inclined to share their information with family and hospitals than with researchers, government agencies or insurance companies. The logistic regression results showed that participants living with others were more likely to share their information of vital signs, medication, and toileting compared to those living alone (ORs=20.5, 5.3, 4.5, respectively). Younger age and advanced ability to use the Internet were negatively associated with the willingness to share, overall. Information granularity and socioeconomic characteristics are important factors to consider when developing in-home monitoring systems for older adults.

Abstract The literature on alternative care focuses overwhelmingly on formal, court-ordered placements; voluntary care placements are discussed less frequently. Least attention of all has been given to informal kinship care placements, where a child is cared for by relatives but is not formally in the legal care of state authorities. In Ireland, these placements, when facilitated by state authorities in lieu of a care order or voluntary care agreement, are known by professionals as ‘private family arrangements’. This article explores evidence which shows that the use of such arrangements is motivated partly by a concern for subsidiarity, and partly by necessity: they provide a source of placements in cases where regulatory requirements and a lack of resources would otherwise make the placement challenging or impossible. However, this strategy carries significant risks. Private family arrangements receive less support and oversight from state authorities than formal care placements, and family members providing care under this model have no legal rights or responsibilities in respect of the child(ren). This places the child(ren) in a precarious position and raises concerns regarding a lack of equity of care. The article will illustrate the impact of these concerns and make recommendations for reform.

In response to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, European Union (EU) Member States adopted technological solutions aimed at mitigating the effects of the virus, as well as enforcing newly adopted public health measures. Examples include apps for disseminating information, performing self-diagnosis, enforcing home quarantine orders and aiding contact tracing. This extensive use of technology for tracking and promoting public health raises important questions regarding EU citizens’ privacy. Thus far, the discourse in this regard has predominantly revolved around data protection, the risk of surveillance and the right to control access over one’s personal information (informational privacy). In light of the push towards a more unified approach to mitigating the current pandemic and future health crises through a European Health Union (EHU), we consider a different dimension of privacy that may be at risk when employing technology for public health, namely the right to non-interference with one’s decisions (decisional privacy). In particular, this article focuses on whether the advances in health-related persuasive technology, together with a more general movement towards “nudging” as an individual and public health tool, will require EU legislation to further protect decisional privacy by regulating “hypernudging” technologies and to guide the EHU in coordinating public health measures that utilise these technologies in a privacy-preserving way.

Abstract Most older adults living in long-term care settings (LTCs) indicate that expressing their sexuality is important to them (Doll, 2013). However, negative views of late-life sexuality persist in the United States (Robinson & Molzahn, 2007), particularly among nursing staff in LTCs. Staff often express discomfort regarding residents’ sexual lives (Bouman, Arcelus, & Benbow, 2007), despite the fact that LTCs are residents’ homes where private behaviors such as sexual activity might be expected to occur. Little is known about the general public’s attitudes towards sexual behaviors in LTCs. Attitudes of LTC residents’ family members is particularly important, as they are most likely to visit residents and to care about their quality of life, in turn informing facility policies and management. In this study, we took preliminary steps toward gathering this information by focusing on attitudes of community-dwelling adults. Using an iterative approach, we conducted semi-structured interviews with community-dwelling adults (n = 9; age range = 18 – 65 years) regarding their beliefs about romantic relationships and sexual behaviors among LTC residents. Major themes were identified through thematic content analysis. Participants indicated favorable attitudes towards residents’ sexual expression as a means of combatting loneliness and fostering emotional intimacy. Other themes included residents’ rights to privacy, potential risks of sexual behavior, and the need to consider how individuals may differ in their ability to consent to sexual activity. This data is intended to inform the development of a measurement tool for use with LTC residents’ family members.

Abstract Home Video Telehealth offers a unique opportunity to support already burdened caregivers of persons with dementia. Veterans Health Administration, through the MISSION Act, is increasingly using video telehealth to provide “care at the right time and in the right place.” Little is known about the benefits and challenges of using video telehealth for in-home caregiver support. We present findings from our seven years offering in-home dementia management to caregivers of Veterans with dementia, that includes supporting caregivers through supportive listening, tips for communication and safety strategies, and recommendations regarding non-pharmacologic management of behaviors. Perceived benefits of in-home video telehealth include an ‘in vivo’ perspective of the family’s natural context and remediating barriers to care such as decreased mobility. Perceived challenges include dealing with technology and privacy concerns. By describing considerations for in-home video telehealth to a clinical population with unique care needs, we inform broader application of a promising technology.

Crowd sensing applications have demonstrated their usefulness in many real-life scenarios (e.g., air quality monitoring, traffic and noise monitoring). Preserving the privacy of crowd sensing app users is becoming increasingly important as the collected geo-located data may reveal sensitive information about these users (e.g., home, work places, political, religious, sexual preferences). In this context, a large variety of Location Privacy Protection Mechanisms (LPPMs) have been proposed. However, each LPPM comes with a given set of configuration parameters. The value of these parameters impacts not only the privacy level but also the utility of the resulting data. Choosing the right LPPM and the right configuration for reaching a satisfactory privacy vs. utility tradeoff is generally a difficult problem mobile app developers have to face. Solving this problem is commonly done by relying on a trusted proxy server to which raw geo-located traces are sent and privacy vs. utility assessment is performed enabling the selection of the best LPPM for each trace. In this paper we present EDEN, the first solution that selects automatically the best LPPM and its corresponding configuration without sending raw geo-located traces outside the user's device. We reach this objective by relying on a federated learning approach. The evaluation of EDEN on five real-world mobility datasets shows that EDEN outperforms state-of-the-art LPPMs reaching a better privacy vs. utility tradeoff.

Home birth is becoming increasingly popular. Labour in the privacy and comfort of a familiar environment has clear appeal. Home birth is usually as safe for low-risk women with appropriate prenatal care. Yet events during delivery can be unpredictable and may be stressful for unprepared family members. Here we report a case of Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy, also known as broken-heart syndrome, in a relative attending an impromptu home delivery. Thus, while home delivery is generally safe for the mother we ask: is it safe for everyone involved?

The Integral Living Research (ILR) group advocates for five foundational principles in the urban housing environment: 1) privacy, 2) security, 3) access to healthy nourishment, 4) access to green space, and 5) self-efficacy enhancement through a culture of care and creativity. These principles have emerged from almost a decade of work in communities of need and are intended to guide designers working towards solutions to reduce stress and enhance health for urban families. In this paper, we examine and analyze best practices in WELL Buildings’ pandemic response guide among others, within the framework of housing, specifically single-family urban housing. Here, within the 2020 pandemic, best practices for alleviating the challenges of the urban single-family home in an underserved community are considered. In this analysis, five areas of focus called “COVID-19 Home Signposts” have emerged and been given additional lenses of equity and access. We describe those inequities and consider how to improve pandemic housing health for those in at-risk communities. We identify further areas for empirical study that are urgent: 1) to promote better understanding of how home, health, and housing improvement all play a role in addressing the COVID-19 pandemic; and 2) to devise appropriate strategies for addressing the fault lines in our cities and our society.

A cross-sectional, online survey was conducted in June 2020 to understand the perceptions of those who work from home (WFH). A questionnaire using Google Forms was sent across to employees of different age groups, job sectors and of various places. Queries included comfort, stress, change in work and family hours, online meetings, disrupting, most convenient and irritating factors of WFH, feeling of social isolation and missing of work-team activities. Of 72 respondents, 79% were men, 60% were above 40 years and two-thirds were in supervisory role. One in two are comfortable and relaxed with WFH. More than 60% reported increase in work hours. Family time has increased to all those who had working hours reduced. No-travel was the most convenient factor for one-third, while ‘increased work hours’ was the most irritating factor for 35%. Lack of proper infrastructure, privacy, family responsibilities and mindset were the main disruptions. Comfort-Stress factors did not vary significantly with age, gender, number of children and job level. Change in work hours, change in family time, infrastructure, privacy, balance between work-home responsibilities in addition to missing team activities, social isolation were the factors of significance for comfort and stress. Given proper infrastructure, more privacy and regulated working hours, WFH can be more comfortable and stress-free. A study with larger sample size would provide comparable data across factors. Conducting organizational level surveys across its employees in WFH could reveal more insights to help decide on cost cutting, output quality and revised compensation structures.

Full textAbstract:
A Home Energy Management System (HEMS) has no direct and immediate energy-saving effect. It gives insight into the resident’s behaviour regarding energy use. When this is linked to the appropriate feedback, the resident is in a position to change his or her behaviour. This should result in reduced gas and/or electricity consumption. The aim of our study is to contribute to the effective use of HEMSs by identifying types of homeowners in relation to the use of a HEMS. The research methods used were a literature review and the Q-method. A survey using the Q-method was conducted among 39 owners of single-family homes in various Rotterdam neighbourhoods. In order to find shared views among respondents, a principal component analysis (PCA) was performed. Five different types of homeowners could be distinguished: the optimists, the privacy-conscious, the technicians, the sceptics, and the indifferent. Their opinions vary as regards the added value of a HEMS, what characteristics a HEMS should have, how much confidence they have in the energy-saving effect of such systems, and their views on the privacy and safety associated with using a HEMS. The target group classification can be used as input for a way in which local stakeholders, e.g., a municipality, can offer HEMSs that are in line with the wishes of the homeowner.

ObjectiveThis presentation will focus on and demonstrate the effective, secure, cost effective delivery of Tele-Behavioral Medicine services to patients in the privacy or their own home.MethodToday's use of internet technology brings with it “cost effectiveness” for Tele-behavioral medicine applications. Today, with a relatively current laptop computer, a web-cam or iPad, broadband connectivity (256 kB or faster), and a downloadable, free, secure video conference application, makes this technology available literally and virtually everywhere, anywhere, in the world at any time.ResultsMedical History clearly supports the value of the “house call” as a means of getting to “see the entire picture”. Chronically ill patients are frequently visited by home health nurses and or “in home” medical monitoring programs. Psychiatrically ill patients may now receive their medication management and behavioral intervention and assessment right in the privacy of their own home. Psychiatrists and psychologists merely schedule “in home” appointments with their patients in the same manner as they would if the patient were being seen in their office.ConclusionChronically ill patients favored treatment rendered in “their private space” as well as providers tended to learn much more about their patients when the provider is the “guest” in the patients home versus the patient as the “customer” in the providers office. The convenience and cost savings for both provider and patient is significant. Availability of spouses, parents etc. was a valuable addition to the Tele-Home-Behavioral Medicine model.Disclosure of interestThe author has not supplied his declaration of competing interest.
