Research
The digital revolution is rapidly changing contemporary society and profoundly affecting our legal system, both at the national and transnational levels. Our research projects investigate how rights and norms can help shape a trustworthy and human-centric digital environment.
The DCU Law and Tech Research Cluster promotes cutting-edge work through the new Routledge Book Series in Digital Law and Governance. We disseminate groundbreaking research from international scholars through our Comparative Digital Law Blog and the Digital Law Perspectives podcast.
