Some countries, like Italy, focused on the protection of dignity of female representations, while\u00a0in other contexts legislatures and self- regulatory agencies have developed more stringent criteria in order to cope with problems connected\u00a0with the reliability of the images shown. Some countries, for example, are pushing for the placement of a \u2018warning label\u2019 on retouched images\u00a0to show that they are not real.\u00a0<\/p><p>The presentation will finally sum up the actual discussion that emphasizes the impact that some images, especially of very thin models, may have on the public at large and especially on a very young public.<\/p><p><\/p><\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":1287,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_image_focal_point":[],"show_featured_caption":false,"ulux_newsletter_groups":"","uluxPostTitle":"","uluxPrePostTitle":"","_trash_the_other_posts":false,"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"event_start_date":"2020-02-05 12:00:00","event_end_date":"2020-02-05 14:00:00","event_speaker_name":"Professor Barbara Pozzo ","event_speaker_link":"","event_is_online":false,"event_location":"University of Luxembourg \r\nRoom B.001 (Ground floor)\r\nB\u00e2timent Weicker\r\n4, rue Alphonse Weicker\r\nL-2721 Luxembourg\r\n","event_street":"","event_location_link":"","event_zip_code":"","event_city":"","event_country":"LU"},"events-topic":[305],"events-type":[],"organisation":[103,100],"authorship":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.3 (Yoast SEO v22.3) -
