CyberTerrorism: Some Insights from Owen’s Genetic-Social Framework
No full textThe following chapter draws upon the latest incarnation of the ever-evolving, meta-theoretical, Genetic-Social framework, recently employed by (Owen in Crime, Genes, Neuroscience and Cyberspace, 2017; Owen et al. in New Perspectives on Cybercrime, 2017; Owen in Raconteur, 2018), and Owen and Speed in (New Perspectives on Cybercrime, 2017), and the intention is to demonstrate its explanatory potential, in particular meta-constructs such as the biological variable [the evidence from behavioural genetics for an, at least in part, biological influence upon human behaviour], psychobiography [the unique, asocial, inherited aspects of the person such as disposition], and neuro-agency [a new term which acknowledges the influence of neurons upon human ‘free-will’], in the task of conceptualising what has come to be known as cyberterrorism. In what follows, cyberterrorism is reconceptualised, moving the definition beyond the usual notions described in the introduction of this chapter. It is the contention here that the synthesis ‘applied’ to cyberterrorism via flexible causal prediction may be of use to criminological theorists, social policy-makers and practitioners working in the field of the criminal justice, and social commentators in the task of constructing predictive models of cyberterrorism
224 - Jennifer Marie Owen
No full textThis poster was presented by Jennifer Owen at the 2017 Graduate Student Showcase.Includes bibliographical references.Video games play an integral role in the lives of adolescents and provide unique opportunities for active and engaged learning. This project contains an exploratory analysis of the narrative constructs within video games and investigates how they can be utilized as an educational tool in secondary English classrooms. As an alternative text, video games offer unique potential to study storytelling and elements of literature, while also providing new insights into digital compositions. Through analysis and evaluation, the development of an innovative curriculum is constructed in the hopes to persuade educators to seek more enriching learning opportunities for their students
New Perspectives on Cybercrime
No full textThis exciting and timely collection showcases recent work on Cybercrime by members of Uclan Cybercrime Research Unit [UCRU], directed by Dr Tim Owen at the University of Central Lancashire, UK. This book offers up-to-date perspectives on Cybercrime based upon a Realist social ontology, alongside suggestions for how research into Cybercrime might move beyond what can be seen as the main theoretical obstacles facing criminological theory: the stagnation of critical criminology and the nihilistic relativism of the postmodern and post-structuralist cultural turn.
Organised into three sections; ‘Law and Order in Cyberspace’, ‘Gender and Deviance in Cyberspace’, and ‘Identity and Cyberspace’, this cutting-edge volume explores some of the most crucial issues we face today on the internet: grooming, gendered violence, freedom of speech and intellectual property crime. Providing unique new theory on Cybercrime, this book will appeal to scholars and advanced students of Criminology, Law, Sociology, Philosophy, Policing and Forensic Science, Information Technology and Journalism, in addition to professionals working within law and order agencies and the security services

No full textRobert Dale Owen was the son of Robert Owen who founded New Harmony, Indiana. Robert Dale was a philosopher, author, politician, and social reformer. He was an advocate for women's rights and served in the Indiana General Assembly and the U.S. Congress. While serving in Congress he introduced the bill to establish the Smithsonian Institution. From 1854-1858 he served as U.S. minister to Naples.Owen is wearing a dark suit and bow tie. His overcoat has a quilted lining. He has whiskers along his jawline
Testing protoplanetary disc dispersal with radio emission
No full textWe consider continuum free–free radio emission from the upper atmosphere of protoplanetary discs as a probe of the ionized luminosity impinging upon the disc. Making use of previously computed hydrodynamic models of disc photoevaporation within the framework of extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) and X-ray irradiation, we use radiative transfer post-processing techniques to predict the expected free–free emission from protoplanetary discs. In general, the free–free luminosity scales roughly linearly with ionizing luminosity in both EUV- and X-ray-driven scenarios, where the emission dominates over the dust tail of the disc and is partial optically thin at cm wavelengths. We perform a test observation of GM Aur at 14–18?GHz and detect an excess of radio emission above the dust tail to a very high level of confidence. The observed flux density and spectral index are consistent with free–free emission from the ionized disc in either the EUV- or the X-ray-driven scenario. Finally, we suggest a possible route to testing the EUV- and X-ray-driven dispersal model of protoplanetary discs, by combining observed free–free flux densities with measurements of mass-accretion rates. On the point of disc dispersal one would expect to find an M?2? scaling with free–free flux in the case of EUV-driven disc dispersal or an ?* scaling in the case of X-ray-driven disc dispersa
