Digitalisierung des Rechts

Overview & Synopsis

Based on legal sciences, the anthology asks what datafication and digitalization mean for law. Can justice be done using data? Can law be recognized from data that is unstructured, unsystematic from a legal perspective or at least non-transparent? Is legal science prepared for the quantification that comes with datafication, does it offer the right methods and what are they? The joint discussion of these questions requires an examination of the fundamentals of law in all areas - civil law, criminal law, public law - and can only be successful with the inclusion of practice and relevant neighboring disciplines. The aim of the intra- and interdisciplinary discourse conducted in this volume is to concretize the risks actually associated with the observed quantification of law and at the same time to identify the opportunities for law and legal science.
