“Revenge Porn” when gender violence goes viral

Global Network Journal , vol. 3 (2021)

Si propone un interessante articolo della dr.ssa Maria Novella Campagnoli nel quale vengono analizzati gli aspetti legislativi del revenge porn. Tra le considerazioni psicologiche sono riportate alcune riflessioni del prof. Cantelmi: “A few years ago, Tonino Cantelmi (one of the first Italians to study techno-addictions and to analyze the impact that the use of digital technology would have on the human mind, on interpersonal relationships and, last but not least, on the sexual sphere)20 noted that within the new Cartesian diagram, in which the axis of the ordinates was represented by the liquid society described by Bauman, while, the one of the abscissa was identified by the technological revolution led by Steve Jobs and his many followers 22, the intersection between the two lines would soon lead to the appearance of an unprecedented and completely unexpected anthropological model: l‟homo tecno-digitalicus“.

Abstract

The dissemination and sharing of images and multimedia content can degenerate into real forms of oppression, abuse and violence. The essay aims to analyze the case and the response of the Italian legislator to revenge porn.
