Representations of visual violence on the Greek FB platform: qualitative and quantitative depictions of violence – Rethinking a new model of digital justice

Culture Journal of Culture in Tourism, Art and Education, 2024

It is a fact that cases of online or multimedia violence worldwide have reached dangerous levels, especially among school-age children and adolescents. This violence can take various forms, such as posts, comments, indirect psychological reports against the victim, and even photos or videos. It may result from direct hostility in the school environment carrying over to the online world, or it could be an organized attack by teenagers from other classes or schools who gain access to the victim's account through seemingly friendly interactions. When studying the broader issue of school bullying, it is essential to focus on two aspects of multimedia violence: (a) conducting a thorough investigation of posts on the platform and categorizing them qualitatively or quantitatively, and (b) presenting audio-visual or audio material of experiences from parents whose children have been involved in or affected by multimedia violence (via social media platforms like Facebook). Simply scientifically documenting the phenomenon is one approach but sharing audio-visual or audio material allows the listener or viewer to judge whether such experiences represent an exercise of freedom of expression or an abuse of that right and, thus, a moral and social issue. Notably, this investigation can be carried out quickly without legal barriers from minors. It is also essential to recognize that while valuable and necessary, the German rationalist status quo of the Greek Civil Code or the framework of Internet Law may not be sufficient tools for a comprehensive psychological examination of the phenomenon. Such examination is essential for advancing the Sociology of Communication and understanding the bigger picture. The reader is left to draw their conclusions from the research.
