Call for Papers and Panels
2023 Asian Law Schools Association (ALSA) Conference
Emerging Technologies, Social Change, and Legal Innovation
December 2-3, 2023
National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU) School of Law, Taiwan
We are delighted to announce that the Asian Law Schools Association (ALSA) in collaboration with the NYCU School of Law will be hosting an international conference on “Emerging Technologies, Social Change, and Legal Innovation” on 2-3 December 2023, at the Guangfu Campus in Hsinchu, Taiwan. The conference aims to explore the complex interplay between emerging technologies, social change, and legal innovation. In the past few decades, we have seen the rapid development and deployment of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, fintech, blockchain, and regenerative medicine, which have had a significant impact on society. As a result, laws and regulations have been struggling to keep up with the pace of technological innovation. This conference aims to explore the legal implications of these emerging technologies and examine the ways in which laws can be adapted to meet the challenges posed by technological advancements.
We invite scholars from various disciplines, including law, technology, management, policy, and science, technology, and society (STS), including young scholars and doctoral students, to submit abstracts for papers that explore the impact of emerging technologies on law, society, and governance. The conference will offer a platform for interdisciplinary discussions and an opportunity for participants to share their research, experiences, and ideas on this important topic.
The topics may include, but are not limited to:
Innovative technology and legal education
Social impact of generative AI and digital technology
Trustable AI
Cybersecurity
Algorithmic governance and digital citizenship
Neuroscience and law
Digital platform
Biomedical innovation
Digital labor and human rights
