Legal Information Retrieval and Analysis

Workshop organized by Pr. Henrik Palmer Olsen, 2023-2024 Paris IAS Fellow.
(Closed to the public)

Law has become increasingly complex and inaccessible to both the public and even professional lawyers. While there are compelling reasons to be cautious about delegating legal decision-making to machines, there are good reasons to think that machines can assist human legal reasoning. Using a computational approach to law, the A-LEX project aims at how automated systems can responsibly be used to support legal reasoning.

This workshop will focus on various themes related to Henrik Palmer Olsen's research project "Algorithmic Support for Legal Decision Making" :

1. How network science can be used to analyse the CJEU’s judgment practice and
2. How to access and use the data sources on EU law that is available through  https://www.iuropa.pol.gu.se/

Participants will discuss how we can collaborate on publications that will relate to the realisation of A-LEX.
