Governance of Automated Decision making and EU law

Abstract

The edited volume presents a multifaceted exploration of the intersection between technological innovation and democratic governance in Europe. It rigorously examines the profound impact of information technologies on rule-making and decision-making processes, emphasizing the preservation of constitutional values within the European Union (EU). Simultaneously, the book seeks to devise future-proof regulatory strategies to navigate the challenges of rapid technological advancements. In addressing the spread of information technology and automated decision-making processes across EU policy sectors, the work delves into potential risks to democratic principles and accountability standards. It advocates for a comprehensive approach, integrating legal, policy, and technological considerations to establish accountability standards for automated decision-making systems. The book provides a nuanced understanding of the complexities and opportunities associated with digitalizing shared administration in the EU. This comprehensive work aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse on safeguarding constitutional values and principles of good governance in the digital era.
