Cover of Sebastiano Faro & Nicola Lettieri: Network Analysis in Law (PDF)
In the past decade the concept of network has acquired a growingly

relevant role in the way we conceptualize, study and measure

the world. The computational study of networks in all its declensions

has been entering in a variety of fields including social sciences.

This volume brings together researchers from computational social

science, law and computational legal theory, network science

and related disciplines to discuss the actual and potential applications

of network analysis in the legal domain. Law is made by people,

about and for people and institutions. These people or institutions

can be seen as networks, moreover law itself forms networks, sources

of law refer to other sources of law and together constitute (part of)

the core of the legal system. All these phenomena can be detected,

mapped and analysed in order to get deeper insights about their

structure, their function and their evolution. The nine contributions

collected in the volume deal with these topics offering an up to date

overview of the most relevant research strands in this field.

Publications in the «Law Science Technology» series will deal, from one

point of view, with looking more closely at and revisiting classical topics

of Legal Informatics, and from another, at innovative topics arising out of

the dialogue between legal science and a range of research areas ranging

from cognitive sciences to complexity science, from computer science to

computational social science and biological sciences.

Radboud Winkels is associate professor in Computational Legal Theory at the Leibniz

Center for Law of the University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Nicola Lettieri is researcher at ISFOL (Rome) and adjunct professor of Legal Informatics

at the University of Sannio and of Computational social sciences at the Department of

Computer science of the University of Salerno, Italy.

Sebastiano Faro is senior resercher at the Institute of Legal Information Theory and Techniques

of the National Research Council of Italy (Florence).
