Available online: https://pub.norden.org/temanord2024-503/ In this report leading researchers within law and digitalisation from Norway, Sweden, Finland, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, and Denmark present the fundamental characteristics of the digitalization of their national public administrations from a legal perspective. An important conclusion of the DigiLaw project is that the Nordic-Baltic countries possess different specialised expertise and experiences when it comes to public digitalisation, and from different angles and at various levels, all researchers recommend strengthening the Nordic-Baltic cooperation when it comes to sharing experiences and handling challenges related to public digitalization.
In the age of technological advancement, including the emergence of artificial intelligence, big data, and the internet of things, the need for privacy and protection has risen massively. This phenomenon has led to the enforcement of two major legal directives in the European Union (EU) that aim to provide vigorous protection of personal data. There is a need for research on the repercussions and developments that have materialized with these recent regulations and how the rest of the world has been affected. Personal Data Protection and Legal Developments in the European Union is an essential reference source that critically discusses different aspects of the GDPR and the Law Enforcement Di...

Diversamente do que sucede em tantos outros países da nossa família jurídica, os mecanismos de resolução alternativa de litígios jurídico-públicos estão, entre nós, afirmados. É certo que a arbitragem ainda suscita incertezas. Demos já conta disso em A Arbitragem Administrativa e Tributária, problemas e desafios, Almedina, 2012 (2.a ed.). Agora, impulsionados pelas alterações introduzidas ao CPTA, eis que nos voltamos para a mediação de conflitos jurídico-administrativos e jurídico-tributários. E ambicioso é o desafio dirigido aqui a todos, de pensar a questão do universo de litígios jurídico-públicos mediáveis, de refletir sobre os poderes do mediador e de equacionar os trâmites a seguir com vista a alcançar o acordo, dentro do processo, no âmbito da ação administrativa, ou antes e fora dele.

A organização administrativa é um objeto essencial da disciplina de Direito Administrativo, integrando qualquer plano de estudos. A configuração e a complexidade da organização administrativa já não se contêm nos limites da dogmática tradicional. O livro reflete igualmente a necessidade de atualizar a relação da organização administrativa com a ideia de serviço público, no quadro de uma Administração Pública digital ao serviço das pessoas. Novos princípios, conceitos e abordagens se impõem num contexto normativo múltiplo e de redefinição do próprio Direito Administrativo.
A tecnologia tem operado transformações evidentes na sociedade. O Direito Administrativo não ficou imune aos desafios que daí derivam. Neste sentido, encontra-se totalmente justificada a discussão em torno de alguns dos pontos cardeais das potencialidades e das dificuldades teóricas e práticas que, no plano substantivo e processual, a inovação tecnológica pode trazer. Sem deixar dar resposta a dúvidas e incertezas que se podem, a este respeito, colocar, a presente monografia pretende, além disso, trazer novas perspectivas que permitam introduzir problemas que, com toda a certeza, irão comportar discussões em torno da relação entre o Direito Administrativo e a Tecnologia.
