Legal informatics

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The right computer science is an interdisciplinary science and is concerned as the study of the conditions, possibilities and consequences of computer science in the law with the interrelation of law and computer science.

Today, a general distinction is made between legal informatics in the narrower sense (i. E. S.) and information law (depending on the form also informatics law, information technology or IT law for short, etc.). Legal informatics i. e. S. includes the information theoretical aspects and is mainly assigned to computer science. It deals with the application of IT instruments and methods in law and ranges from supporting legal ancillary activities such as law firm administration systems or legal information systems to attempts at a more comprehensive automation of law such as decision support systems , expert systems or applications of artificial intelligence in law.

Information law or IT law, on the other hand, deals with the diverse legal issues arising from the use of the new information and communication technologies , such as those arising in data protection law , intellectual property law, etc., and can therefore be assigned to the legal sciences. The concept and theory formation and in particular the delimitation of legal informatics i. e. However, the right to information and information are still fuzzy and incomplete.

The beginnings

Legal informatics in German-speaking countries began with the early deliberations on administrative automation, which began to relax from the late 1950s on the question of the possible use of "calculating machines" in law and the state and thus from today's perspective with a sub-area of ​​legal informatics. The first German-language scientific publication in this regard seems to be that of Karl Zeidler with the title On the Mechanization of Administration from 1959. Herbert Fiedler's early works also achieved great popularity, such as those on calculating machines as an aid to the application of the law from 1962 or Niklas Luhmann's habilitation thesis Law and Automation in Public Administration from 1966. As further important representatives of the early approaches to legal informatics are among many others in particular Wilhelm Steinmüller , Spiros Simitis , Robert Svoboda or Hans Peter Bull , and with regard to legal logic, especially Ulrich Klug , Lothar Philipps or Ota Weinberger .

The concept of legal informatics itself can most likely be traced back to the French lawyer Lucien Mehl , who proposed the use of calculating machines on law as early as 1958 under the concept of informatique juridique .

The attempt to form a theory and a concept

A stronger theoretical preoccupation with data processing in law and state did not take place until the beginning of the 1970s. Herbert Fiedler and Wilhelm Steinmüller in particular - the latter was responsible for the first German-language textbook on legal informatics published in 1970 - raised the claim to the formation of an independent discipline during this period. With his textbook, Wilhelm Steinmüller also coined the term legal informatics to denote this new discipline. Also Fritjof prison speaks of a new discipline, but as previously indicated they Spiros Simitis , Dieter Suhr or Adalbert Podlech as law cybernetics .

Wilhelm Steinmüller regards the mutual relationships between IT and law as an object of legal informatics and, from a system-theoretical position, defines it as "the doctrine of the prerequisites, possibilities and consequences of IT in law". In this way, Steinmüller introduced the information-theoretical aspects relating to the practical use of EDP in law (such as legal information systems, administrative automation, automated legal decision-making, support for legal planning and training, etc.) with the legal aspects that arise when using EDP in law , under the umbrella term of legal informatics as a problem science .

Herbert Fiedler prefers the term legal computer science, the starting point of which he locates in practical data processing and which he defines as “ the structural theory of data processing in law and the state ”. He thus methodically orientates legal computer science to the formal sciences (formal logic, mathematics), but does not regard computer science as a purely formal science and does not exclude a description in natural language. For the first time , Fiedler summarizes the legal issues arising from the new information technologies under the term information law - as they can be assigned to the dogmatics of law . In the 1990s at the latest, however, Fiedler gave up the idea of ​​a uniform mathematical-structural method and pleaded for stronger interdisciplinary cooperation and, in this sense, for an " integrative discipline of legal informatics " with the integrated disciplines of law and computer science. By merging legal informatics in the narrower sense (the information theoretical part) and legal informatics in the broader sense (information law), law and computer science should no longer regard each other as auxiliary sciences, but rather work together synergistically and for the frequent division into "computer science for lawyers" and " Law for Computer Scientists ”.

Leo Reisinger, in turn, defined legal informatics from a system-theoretical point of view as the theory of the structure and function of the legal system with regard to the automation of data processing, Fritjof Haft and later also Elmar Bund regard legal informatics as the science of the application of computer science methods to information and decision-making structures in Legal system and in jurisprudence. Maximilian Herberger advocates a methodical separation and a consideration of legal informatics as applications of informatics instruments in law in the self-image of other hyphenated informatics ( business informatics , medical informatics , etc.). The same applies to Wolfgang Kilian , who clearly assigns legal informatics to applied computer science, defines it as an analysis and evaluation of the requirements, applications and consequences of information technology in law and emphasizes the necessary interdisciplinary and cross-border cooperation between lawyers, computer scientists and economists.

Legal informatics i. e. S. and the right to information

Although the content, methods and objectives of legal informatics remain somewhat unclear, legal informatics in German-speaking countries is today mostly described as an interdisciplinary science, based on Wilhelm Steinmüller ( see above ) , which deals with the mutual relationships between law and computer science. In addition, since the 1990s, the pair of terms , legal informatics and information law ( see above ) introduced by Herbert Fiedler , seems to be the most widely accepted.

Under the right computer science in the strict sense (i. E. P) is therefore understood today regularly the information-theoretic component of the right computer science, which in turn roughly in legal documentation and knowledge management, standard setting and norm application and implementation of law (including legal expert systems and applications of artificial intelligence in the legal ), Workplace support, and legal learning and training systems. However, research into the social, political and economic development of the information and knowledge society is often but not always related to legal informatics. e. S. slammed. Since legal informatics i. e. S. encounters insurmountable limits in the formalization of legal language , from today's perspective, in addition to the disciplines of law and computer science, the integration of the discipline of linguistics, which has so far been neglected in legal informatics, and in particular computational linguistics as an interface between linguistics and computer science , seems necessary.

But there is also fundamental disagreement about the content of information law in legal informatics in a broader sense. Depending on the focus, information technology law, EDP ​​law , information technology law (IT law), information and communication technology law (ICT law), new media law, internet law (cyberlaw) etc. are also mentioned here. The various legal issues arising from the use of modern information and communication technology are regularly brought together under information law and its related terms , thus presenting itself as a so-called cross-sectional discipline that covers numerous areas of law such as data protection law , intellectual property law , telecommunications law , computer law. Criminal law, which includes e-commerce law, etc. While information law is viewed by some as an independent discipline alongside or above the traditional sub-disciplines, others dismiss it as an unsystematic legal potpourris. Thomas Hoeren, in turn, establishes the right to information on the key question of how, to whom, when and why exclusive rights to information are assigned and consequently focuses on intellectual property rights. Despite these inconsistencies, the right to information in legal informatics i. e. S. de facto outstripped the rank and is occasionally even referred to as the further development or the modern form of legal informatics. But legal informatics is also taking a back seat today in relation to administrative informatics.

Legal informatics - administrative informatics - e-government

Towards the end of the 1970s, the term administrative informatics was established in the German-speaking area for what Heino Kaack put it, “the science of information technology-based design of administrative actions ”. Administrative informatics is sometimes assigned to business informatics; correctly, it is probably a multidisciplinary research area in which business informatics, public management and legal informatics fulfill important interface functions between the fields of informatics, administrative science, politics, economics and law. After widespread use of the Internet from the end of the 1990s, a bachelor's degree in "Administrative Management / eGovernment " was offered for the first time in 2004 . The law for the promotion of electronic administration (EGovG) came into force mainly on August 1, 2013.

The current position of legal informatics i. e. S.

Legal informatics today shows very good progress in the areas of process automation, mass processes and (isolated) problem-specific applications. Due to her heightened awareness of the problem, she also has the potential to uncover inconsistencies, contradictions or unequal treatment in law. After the initially euphoric expectations of legal informatics and their ambitious projects to automate legal decision-making processes in the 1970s and 1980s, a certain disappointment and disenchantment set in at the beginning of the 1990s. If the formalization of general knowledge and natural language proves to be extremely problematic, this applies all the more to the formalization of the complex legal language and the structural legal knowledge behind it. The increasing complexity in law, open and vague legal terms, valuation decisions, the changeability and dynamics of language and law, the divergence between formal model and non-formal reality, and the formalization of comprehensive world knowledge in which legal knowledge is embedded, are particularly critical.

This, together with the fact that a uniform conceptual and related theory formation in a discipline of legal informatics has not yet succeeded, ultimately led to a certain lack of orientation in legal informatics. This could not least be due to the unwillingness to interdisciplinarity and the associated dispute as to whether the legal informatics discipline should be located in law or in informatics. As a result, legal informatics today, compared to business informatics, has a specialty and has to take a back seat to information law and administrative informatics .

As part of a review of the development of law in the Berlin Republic at the Max Planck Institute for European Legal History , Thomas Hoeren spoke of the “death of legal informatics” in 2017 and said that “the subject itself” is now “dead”.

Other countries

The problem of the formation of terms and theories in legal informatics does not only exist in German-speaking countries. In contrast to other hyphenated informatics, the term Legal Informatics has not caught on in English and is hardly used in English-speaking countries. However, the term Legal Informatics is used for the English-language versions of other language facilities or institutions. The term "Computers and Law", which emerged in the 1960s and was later widely used, as used today, for example, by the renowned Norwegian Research Center for Computers and Law NRCCL (Norwegian: Senter for rettsinformatikk ) at the University of Oslo, has similar pitfalls as that of the Legal informatics and has been replaced more and more by more modern terms that describe the respective research area more precisely. Today there is talk of Legal Aspects of Computing , IT Law, ICT Law, Cyberlaw, Internet Law, Artificial Intelligence and Law (short: AI and Law) and many other variants.
