The use of data in society has seen an exponential growth in recent years. Data science, the field of research concerned with understanding and analyzing data, aims to find ways to operationalize data so that it can be beneficially used in society, for example in health applications, urban governance or smart household devices. The legal questions that accompany the rise of new, data-driven technologies however are underexplored. This book is the first volume that seeks to map the legal implications of the emergence of data science. It discusses the possibilities and limitations imposed by the current legal framework, considers whether regulation is needed to respond to problems raised by data science, and which ethical problems occur in relation to the use of data. It also considers the emergence of Data Science and Law as a new legal discipline.
This book provides the first comprehensive appraisal of the paradigm shift towards mandatory sustainability requirements in EU public procurement law. Traditionally, EU public procurement law focused on 'how to buy', dictating procedural rules so that public buyers in the Member States did not discriminate against suppliers and service providers from other Member States. Mandatory green and social requirements mean that, with a view to achieving sustainable development goals and mitigating climate change, the EU will limit this discretionary power for public buyers, pushing them to acquire more sustainable goods and services. Based on legal analysis informed by economic perspectives, the boo...

Property Law Perspectives IV shows that attention is still being paid to the roots of property law.
Money is a legal institution with principal economic and sociological consequences. Money is a debt, because that is how it is conceptualised and comes into existence: as circulating credit – if viewed from the creditor’s perspective – or, from the debtor’s viewpoint, as debt. This book presents a legal theory of money, based on the concept of dematerialised property. It describes the money creation or money supply process for cash and for bank money, and looks at modern forms of money, such as cryptocurrencies. It also shows why mainstream economics presupposes, but avoids an analysis of, money by effectively eliminating money from the microeconomic market model and declaring it as ...

The Young Property Lawyers Forum (YPLF) is an informal international network with an annual conference that gives researchers the opportunity to present their research to both young and established property law scholars from around the world. This book contains selected contributions from the fourth Young Property Lawyers Forum and Masterclass. The book offers an interesting selection of recent developments in the broad field of property law, including: contributions on constitutional property law (with topics such as expropriation procedures, South African tenure, and expropriation of waterfalls for hydropower development); national private property law (with chapters on the English Land Registration Act 2002 and on virtual property); and European and comparative property law (with contributions about French fiducie versus trust, the global art market, and factory machinery bought under hire-purchase agreements). The wide variety of topics discussed by a young and promising generation of property lawyers will make this book a fascinating read for anyone interested in developments in property law.
