Edited by James A. Gardner

Cover Rethinking Law, Regulation, and Technology
Rethinking Law, Regulation, and Technology
Roger Brownsword
This insightful book presents a radical rethinking of the relationship between law, regulation, and technology. While in traditional legal thinking technology is neither of particular interest nor concern, this book treats modern technologies as doubly significant, both as major targets for regulation and as potential tools to be used for legal and regulatory purposes. It explores whether our institutions for engaging with new technologies are fit for purpose.
