(LAW950) -  Professor Georgios Yannopoulos

Περιγραφή Μαθήματος

The course focuses on the problems arising from the interaction of Law with Information Technology and examines “information” as a subject-matter worth legal protection. In particular the module examines two main branches: a) Substantive IT Law and b) Computer Applications in Law (Legal Informatics). The first branch covers the new right to Information Society and its restrictions due to rules concerning: i) the protection of personal data ii) the protection of secrecy of communications and iii) intellectual property. While problems of Internet regulation, enforcement of regulation, the e-Commerce Directive and the liability of intermediaries will be examined in depth, emphasis will be given also to the new tasks that legislators must tackle, such as electronic documents and digital signatures, the proof of evidence of electronic data, the electronic submission of legal documents etc. The second branch examines the area of Computer Applications In Law (Legal Informatics) by studying the new technological tools affecting the knowledge of the law in force. Particular emphasis will be given to the design, analysis and creation of legal databases (statute and case-law), the processing and retrieval of legal data and, lastly, artificial intelligence and law, with reference to the analysis of legal expert systems.
