Law 3.0

Putting technology front and centre in our thinking about law this book introduces Law 3. 0: the future of the legal landscape. Technology not only disrupts the traditional idea of what it is âto think like a lawyerâ as per Law 1. 0; it presents major challenges to regulators who are reasoning in a Law 2. 0 mode. As this book demonstrates the latest developments in technology offer regulators the possibility of employing a technical fix rather than just relying on rules â thus we are introducing Law 3. 0. Law 3. 0 represents so to speak the state we are in and the conversation that we now need to have and this book identifies some of the key points for discussion in that conversation. Thinking like a lawyer might continue to be associated with Law 1. 0 but from 2020 onward Law 3. 0 is the conversation that we all need to join. And as this book argues law and the evolution of legal reasoning cannot be adequately understood unless we grasp the significance of technology in shaping both legal doctrine and our regulatory thinking. This is a book for those studying or about to study law â as well as others with interests in the legal political and social impact of technology. . Language: English
