The De Gruyter Handbook on Law and Digital Technologies provides a comprehensive, accessible and thought-provoking guide to the current and future regulation of digital technologies. It addresses key legal challenges such as reconceptualizing crucial, deep-rooted notions, including those of person, autonomy, democracy, the rule of law, sovereignty, constitutionalism and governance. The handbook proposes critical explorations of the potential impact of digital technologies on new and traditional forms of governance and regulation across different and competitive normative perspectives such as law, economy, social norms and legal design. In this framework, it addresses the societal transformations brought about by digital technologies, the legal means for regulating the field, and the impact of governance in areas such as fintech, sustainability, outer space, or healthcare.
