The EUDC as an international paradigm facing the algorithmic society

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The thesis turns itself over the increasing influence of the information industry over modern days democracies and society in general, the development and consequences of the Algorithmic Society, and how Digital Constitutionalism has been conceptualised as a legal regulatory response to its arising threats to sovereignty and individual rights. The research uses the European Union Digital Constitutionalism movement as its practical example, revising prominent authors on their work over the subject, such as Czarnocki, Giovanni de Gregorio, and Edoardo Celeste. This research understands that the EUDC does have to focus on its theoretical expansion, but also keep on track the current international political developments. Reaching out and merging with the American point of view for digital regulations would only hurt the original animus of the EUDC, causing more harm than helping on sustaining its ideas. The thesis concludes that there are multiple other relevant international actors for the European Union to grow with, and that this factor should take priority on enhancing the EUDC as the global pioneering protective tool it is supposed to be.
