Challenges and perspectives of hate speech research

This book is the result of a conference that could not take place. It is a collection of 26 texts that address and discuss the latest developments in international hate speech research from a wide range of disciplinary perspectives. This includes case studies from Brazil, Lebanon, Poland, Nigeria, and India, theoretical introductions to the concepts of hate speech, dangerous speech, incivility, toxicity, extreme speech, and dark participation, as well as reflections on methodological challenges such as scraping, annotation, datafication, implicity, explainability, and machine learning. As such, it provides a much-needed forum for cross-national and cross-disciplinary conversations in what is currently a very vibrant field of research

Islam and human rights in European Union: the example of Croatia

IN ENGLISH: The article discusses the position of Islam in the Republic of Croatia, as one of the members of the European Union. After presenting basic information about the social context of Croatia and data on the Islamic community (number and distribution of Muslims) the legal regulation of religious communities is presented, with a more detailed elaboration of the legal position of Muslims. After that, the phenomenon of discrimination against Muslims in Croatia (and discrimination by Muslims) as well as practicing religious freedom and other cultural rights and freedom of speech is discussed. In the context of the discussion on the challenges of Islam in the EU countries, the fundamental challenges in Croatia are elaborated. The conclusions state advantages of the Croatian model of coexistence between the secular state and religious communities, with an emphasis on Islam. --------------- IN CROATIAN: Članak raspravlja položaj islama u Republici Hrvatskoj, kao jednoj od članica Europske Unije.

Nakon toga se s primjerima elaborira fenomen diskriminacije muslimana u Hrvatskoj (i diskriminacije od strane muslimana), te prakticiranja vjerske slobode i drugih kulturnih prava, te slobode govora. U kontekstu rasprave o izazovima islamu u zemljama Europske Unije, posebno se elaborira primjer Hrvatske. U zaključcima se navode prednosti hrvatskog modela koegzistencije između sekularne države i vjerskih zajednica, s naglaskom na Islamskoj vjerskoj zajednici

An exploration of ehealth and digital literacy in pharmacy practice.

The aim of this research programme was to explore ehealth technology in pharmacy practice in Scotland and, by doing so, contribute original knowledge to this area. Strategists worldwide believe technology has the potential to promote quality, safety and efficiency in healthcare. This has been reflected in national ehealth policies designed to support collaborative working between medical and non-medical healthcare practitioners and, more recently, the whole health and social care team. A meta-narrative systematic review was conducted to explore and contextualise research related to healthcare professionals views of the adoption of ehealth technologies to support shared care. Findings indicate the importance of organisational development and training for core and optional ehealth services with pharmacists particularly under-represented in ehealth research. Socio-technical systems theory and the computer supported cooperative working framework were adopted to explore healthcare practitioners perceptions of ehealth in relation to integrated care. Findings from the review indicate ehealth research continues to focus on doctors and nurses. No ehealth application was perceived to be an unqualified success with the socio-technical gap still evident. Multiple case studies were conducted to develop explanatory theory around the digital literacy experiences, education and training related needs of pharmacy staff in the NHS Grampian area. Digital literacy levels were self-reported as basic with mixed views on the need for formal education and training. Findings indicate organisational and social factors may act as restraining forces against implementation of technology in pharmacy and associated digital literacy training. A final theory testing, systematic review was conducted into digital literacy training experiences of pharmacy staff applying Kirkpatricks four level model. It found a lack of evidence of specific, measurable digital literacy levels but indications that suggest digital literacy should be included in pharmacy education at all levels and career stages. This research provides novel insight into ehealth and digital literacy in pharmacy practice. Combined ehealth, education and pharmacy research has been demonstrated to be an under-researched area therefore these findings contribute original knowledge
