We are delighted to inform you about an exciting international conference devoted to Cybercrime. The theme of the conference
is to critically examine the current ‘state of play’ in global Cybercrime in relation to a diverse range of issues including terrorism, online sexual predation, property/identity theft, cyber-bullying, virtual criminology, cyber-security and trolling, in tandem
with attempts to ‘rethink’ ways in which we might conceptualise theoretical developments, inform social and educational policy, respond to threats and prevent and combat online criminal behaviour.
Broad Conference Themes:
• The emergence of ‘Virtual Criminology’
• The growth of cyber-space as a major site for crime and moral transgression
• Cyber-Terrorism and role of the internet in radicalisation
• Identity theft and online fraud
• Intellectual Property Crime
• Online sexual predation & grooming
• Surveillance, monitoring and privacy
• Effectiveness of law and order agencies to control cybercrime
• Security Services [private and government]
• Hate Crime and Hate Speak
• Trolling and anti-social behaviour
• False accusation and defamation
• Social networking and deviance
In addition to these broad themes, we welcome submissions for papers and poster presentations on any aspect of Cybercrime.
