Emerging Technologies, Law and Policies

Dear Colleagues,

New technologies and the so-called information and communication technologies (ICT or IT) are transforming society, interpersonal relationships, and our way of understanding the world—and, b. By extension, also law and the legal profession. New technologies will have a great impact on society in the coming years, and will pose new challenges and legal issues in the legal sector that will surely affect the development, evolution, and way of understanding the legal practice. The future of industry will be made up of occupations that do not yet exist or of areas or subjects that are little or not yet known or even explored. The key for law firms will be to specialize in these sectors. In this Special Issue of Topics, original research articles and reviews are welcome.
