Artificial Intelligence Law And Digitalisation In Law

Artificial intelligence has become one of the defining scientific and technological forces of our time. Its rapid development and widespread application are transforming not only production processes and public services, but also the legal, institutional, and normative frameworks that structure modern societies. As artificial intelligence systems increasingly shape decisionmaking in sensitive domains, the need for systematic and principled legal reflection has become both evident and urgent.

This volume brings together a collection of scholarly studies that examine artificial intelligence from a legal and regulatory perspective. The chapters address a broad range of issues arising from the interaction between AI technologies and law, including responsibility and liability, fundamental rights, governance mechanisms, and sector-specific regulatory challenges. Rather than focusing on technological innovation alone, the contributions in this book emphasize the necessity of aligning technological progress with legal certainty, accountability, and the protection of human dignity.

A notable feature of the volume is its engagement with contemporary regulatory developments from a comparative perspective. Alongside analyses grounded in European regulatory approaches, several contributions engage with legal experiences and policy debates emerging from Tu rkiye and the United States. This comparative outlook reflects the global nature of artificial intelligence governance and highlights the importance of dialogue between different legal traditions and regulatory cultures. By bringing together perspectives from multiple jurisdictions, the volume contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of how AI regulation may evolve in a globally interconnected yet normatively diverse environment.

The Turkish Academy of Sciences (TU BA), as a Tu rkiye-based institution with an international scientific vision, attaches great importance to research that addresses emerging technologies through a rigorous, critical, and forward-looking lens. In this respect, the present volume contributes to TU BA’s mission of promoting high-quality academic scholarship that not only responds to national needs, but also engages with global challenges. The studies collected in this book share a common aspiration: to contribute to the development of an artificial intelligence governance framework that serves humanity, safeguards fundamental values, and supports sustainable and responsible innovation. In doing so, the volume seeks to offer a reliable intellectual foundation for policymakers who are tasked with designing and implementing legal and regulatory responses to rapidly evolving AI technologies.
