Project title
China, Poland, and the UK: Digitalisation and Social Transformation in Administration of Civil Justice
Supervisors
Ben Farrand and Bryan Clark
Abstract
The development of 鈥渙nline courts鈥� in recent years has been potentially influenced by social and cultural dynamics related to citizens鈥� expectations of access to justice. The research question of this project is: What is the impact of digitalisation of civil justice on existing values and principles underlying different legal systems? Igor will undertake a comparative analysis of digital civil courts and understandings of the concept of digital justice in Poland, the UK and in the PRC. By comparing them, Igor will seek to develop a set of criteria against which current and future policy developments and recommendations can be assessed.
