Personalized Law

Different Rules for Different People

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

We live in a world of one-size-fits-all law. People are different, but the laws that govern them are uniform. "Personalized Law" - rules that vary person by person - will change that. Individual tailoring becomes increasingly possible as technology and data combine and law and regulation could similiarly be applied based on personalised, subjective, criteria. Better drivers would be free to drive faster, more vulnerable consumers would receive stronger warranties and protections, age restrictions for driving or for the consumption of alcohol would vary according the recklessness risk that each person poses, and licensing requirements would be more demanding for the less skilled. This book is the first to explore how personalized law can be designed to deliver precision and justice, how data and algorithms might run the system, and what pitfalls the regime would have to prudently avoid. Omri Ben-Shahar and Ariel Porat not only present this concept in a clear, easily accessible way, but they offer specific examples of how personalized law may be implemented across a variety of real-life applications.
