Legal Issues in Communication and Information Technologies


The very fast evolution of the technological landscape and the impact of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) on the every day life of most citizens raise new challenges which cannot be tackled by a purely technological approach. The motivation for the LICIT action stems from the observation that, despite the ever growing intermingling of ICT and law in the deployment of new technologies, the links between the two research communities are still too scarce. The objective of LICIT is to contribute, in partnership with research groups in law, to the development of new approaches and methods for a better integration of legal and technical instruments.
