Normalising jurisdictional heterotopias through place branding : the cases of Christiania and Metelkova
This paper explores the political dimensions of place branding as a path to normalisation for areas where
a paradoxical relationship with the law exists, places that we coin “jurisdictional heterotopias” borrowing
from Foucauldian literature. We posit that place branding plays a fundamental role in facilitating scale
jumping in the otherwise vertically aligned legal space, a hierarchy designed to exclude spatial
multiplicity from its premise. By examining the role of place branding in such areas, we endeavour to
understand and appreciate the selective application of the law, the perpetuation of unregulated and illegal
activity, as well as the place – specificity of legal practice. Ultimately, we argue that strong place
branding associations permit the engulfment of this type of heterotopias in the “mainstream” leading to
their normalisation; such a normalisation results not only in the acceptance of their uniqueness by the
institutional elements, but also in the potential nullification of the liberties their communities advocate
The Use of Sexually Explicit Internet Material and Its Antecedents: A Longitudinal Comparison of Adolescents and Adults
An implicit assumption in research on adolescents’ use of sexually explicit internet material (SEIM) is that they may feel more attracted to such material than adults, given the “forbidden” character of SEIM for minors. However, systematic comparisons between adolescents’ and adults’ SEIM use and of its antecedents are missing. We conducted a two-wave panel survey among a nationally representative sample of 1,445 Dutch adolescents and a nationally representative sample of 833 Dutch adults. Adolescents’ and adults’ SEIM use was similar. When significant differences in the SEIM use occurred, they indicated that adults used SEIM more often than adolescents. Male adults were the most frequent users of SEIM. No difference in the antecedent structure of SEIM use emerged between adolescents and adults. In both groups, males, sensation seekers, as well as people with a not exclusively heterosexual orientation used SEIM more often. Among adolescents and adults, lower life satisfaction increased SEIM use. Our findings suggest that the frequency of SEIM use and its antecedents are largely the same among adolescents and adults

Model-Based Detection of CSRF
Part 1: Intrusion DetectionInternational audienceCross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) is listed in the top ten list of the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) as one of the most critical threats to web security. A number of protection mechanisms against CSRF exist, but an attacker can often exploit the complexity of modern web applications to bypass these protections by abusing other flaws. We present a formal model-based technique for automatic detection of CSRF. We describe how a web application should be specified in order to facilitate the exposition of CSRF-related vulnerabilities. We use an intruder model, à la Dolev-Yao, and discuss how CSRF attacks may result from the interactions between the intruder and the cryptographic protocols underlying the web application. We demonstrate the effectiveness and usability of our technique with three real-world case studies
