Digitalization of the judiciary – Guest lecture by Prof. Bart Jan van Ettekoven
On Friday, September 14th, 2018, prof. Bart Jan van Ettekoven gave a guest lecture on digitalization of the judiciary. Van Ettekoven is President of the Administrative Jurisdiction Division of the Dutch Council of State and Professor in Constitutional and Administrative law at the ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ of Amsterdam.
He spoke about the changes in digitalization, both within the legal world and outside the legal world, but also about the need for digitalization in our legal profession and whether artificial intelligence should be incorporated in the curriculum at law schools. Van Ettekoven furthermore discussed the consequences of digitalization and what measures should be taken in that respect. After all, the question is not if and when we are digitalizing, but how we can manage these developments in an effective way.
This lecture was held in Dutch. A Dutch news report is available on the Dutch version of the website.
