Summary
The datafication and digitalisation of business models and decision-making processes have led to calls for more transparency, but at the same time raise the question of suitable concepts for this. The contributions summarised in this volume, which address various areas of law, therefore examine from a jurisprudential perspective whether and under what conditions transparency should be granted and to what extent already existing transparency concepts can be made fruitful. They are all discussion contributions of the 2nd Conference of the Research Network Young Digital Law, which took place on 22 and 23 July 2022 at the University of Hamburg.
Dr. Tobias Mast contributes to this volume with the article "
Zum Wesensunterschied menschlicher und maschineller Entscheidungsbegründungen aus rechtssoziologischer Perspektive" [On the Difference in the Nature of Human and Machine Decision-Making from the Perspective of the Sociology of Law].
