Private law on new techncologies
The course aims to provide an adequate information on various aspects involved in the advent of new technologies. Their impact on the private law system entails an ever-increasing need for verification with respect to the most varied issues, such as privacy, smart contracts and electronic commerce, intellectual property, social networks, internet providers.
It’s necessary to run over some traditional civil law subjects, such as contract or property, in order to assess the compatibility of the old concepts with the new methods of formation of consent and circulation of information and data, and it’s also necessary to identify the limits of admissibility of the behavior in the network and the consequent responsibility for the possible violation of rights.
