SUMMARY:Identity and Security in the Black Sea Region
DESCRIPTION:Marian Zulean is a Professor of Sociology at the University of Bucharest. This year\, he is a Fulbright Scholar at the Wilson Center in Washington\, DC. Previously\, he was director of the Black Sea Area program at the University of Bucharest and served as a national security advisor to the Office of the President in Romania. \nThe discussion was based his new co-edited volume\, Social Values and Identities in the Black Sea  Region (Roman & Littlefield\, 2023)\, which explores the nexus between geopolitical challenges and cultural frameworks in the Black Sea region. He also discussed how the war in Ukraine affects regional dynamics. Jennifer Brick Murtazashvili moderated the discussion. \nWatch the video\, here: Identity and Security in the Black Sea Region

SUMMARY:Researcher Access to Social Media Data: Lessons from Clinical Trial Data Sharing
DESCRIPTION:As the problems of misinformation\, child welfare\, and heightened political polarization on social media platforms grow more salient\, lawmakers and advocates are pushing to grant independent researchers access to social media data to better understand these problems. Yet researcher access is controversial. Privacy advocates and companies raise the potential privacy threats of researchers using such data irresponsibly. In addition\, social media companies raise concerns over trade secrecy: the data these companies hold\, and the algorithms powered by that data are secretive sources of competitive advantage. \nThis Article shows that one way to navigate this difficult strait is by drawing on lessons from the successful governance program that has emerged to regulate the sharing of clinical trial data. Like social media data\, clinical trial data implicates both individual privacy and trade secrecy concerns. Nonetheless\, clinical trial data’s governance regime was gradually legislated\, regulated\, and brokered into existence\, managing the interests of industry\, academia\, and other stakeholders. The result is a functionally successful (if yet imperfect) clinical trial data-sharing ecosystem. \nPart I sketches the status quo of researchers’ access to social media data and provides a novel taxonomy of the problems that arise under this regime. \nPart II reviews the legal structures governing how clinical trial data is shared and traces the history of scandals\, investigations\, industry protest\, and legislative response that gave rise to the mix of mandated sharing and experimental programs we have today. \nPart III applies lessons from clinical trial data sharing to social media data and charts a strategic course forward. Two primary lessons emerge: First\, law without institutions to implement the law is insufficient\, and second\, data access regimes must be tailored to the data they make available.
