Words are the favourite medium of expression for lawyers. Advances in digital technologies and the development of natural language processing and other text mining technologies have extended the application of data science and artificial intelligence to the legal world. Now it is not only words that have a place; quantitative data and information a...
This article examines the way legal design can help bridge the gap between the law (and legislators or regulatory institutions) and its addressees (members of the broader society and market participants) in the Information Age and highlight the risks of failing to do so. Additionally, it explores a visual discipline similar on the surface to legal...
Silence in management and organization studies has been predominantly understood as something negative. However, recent examples have highlighted silence as a positive element in learning and organizing. We contribute to prior literature on positive silence and multimodality by arguing silence can operate as a semiotic mode that mobilizes resources...
This chapter advocates for lawyers to embrace ambition when reimagining the legal profession through the integration of digital technologies, including artificial intelligence.
It champions the notion that AI and sustainability are deeply intertwined, sharing fundamental dynamics that should be harnessed in harmony to serve loftier objectives....
The drive towards a societal transformation for more sustainable and resilient ways of living on the planet Earth requires a multifaceted approach. The natural sciences provide critical data that emphasize the need to re-evaluate our interactions with the environment. The evidence are pivotal and recognize the urgency to act without further procras...
In recent years, societies around the world have become increasingly polarised. From political ideologies (left vs. right), to culture wars, to religious conflicts, to global vs. local values, people are often forced into binary camps. Social media algorithms, partisan news outlets and the economics of outrage all contribute to this intensification...
More of the same behaviours and choices that
led to the current state will not lead to a much-
needed paradigm shift. Preserving and
regenerating the planet as well as
redistributing wealth are central, complex, and
systemic challenges. How can the problem of
managing finite natural resources be better
addressed?
Could it be that we have mobilised...
Building on the Inner Development Goals (IDGs)’ deployed by people, organizations, society and supra-national organizations, the authors have created 69 questions to explore the 23 competencies forming the IDGs framework.
We need knowledge management ('KM') more than ever before. Recent technological mega fast-forward developments with large language models and knowledge graphs promise to transform the way unstructured legal data are meta tagged and mobilised, mechanically , or generatively. Yet so much is possible and much needed at people level before all hopes an...
Generative artificial Intelligence (GAI) has now landed in society. Legal ecosystems are not immune to it. This is deeply transformative. Thought leaders are pulling in opposite directions when predicting risks and promoting opportunities. Citizens can hardly be expected to catch up and become a part of shaping the public space while being directly...
We tend to believe (or want to believe) that photographs communicate clearly and truthfully. When we look at photographs, we seem to readily accept that what we see on a photograph represents 'reality'. Equally, we seem to take for granted that what is represented means literally what we see. It is even more so when the entities publishing the phot...
Die Informationsflut zu ChatGPT zeigt deutlicher denn je, die Notwendigkeit für verständliches, fachübergreifendes, technologisches Wissen. Emotional aufgeladene Meldungen und Kontroversen führen heute oft zu lähmendem Rückzug oder rastloser Hyperaktivität.
Es ist schwierig, das aristotelische Dreieck der Rhetorik bestehend aus Pathos, Ethos und L...
With this article, we aim to bring our voice as practitioners and knowledge management (KM) lawyers to the innovation table. To facilitate the retrieval of legal knowledge and its mapping, we have tested different forms of visualization of law and we have been exploring how, in our context, technology could be used or has already been used to suppo...
This paper is primarily aimed at legal professionals in larger in-house departments, particularly those in the position to ignite and drive change processes. Yet, the insights shared can be easily transported to a wide variety of other contexts. The authors’ views on some key cognitive biases often standing in the way of meaningful and long-lasting...
In today’s world, rarely a minute goes by without us checking our phones, tablets, laptops, looking something up on the internet, or use a smart object to presumably make our lives easier. We all know that these devices and our interaction with them generate a lot of data, specific to each of us as individuals and consumers. But do we truly underst...
The interactive, collective, and iterative dimensions of the design process strengthen access to information and the mobilization of ideas based on what participants know and can. All actors of the legal ecosystem are welcome to contribute to the design process. This significantly expand the cognitive capabilities activated by team members cooperat...
This chapter focuses on the communication dimensions related to data visualization for both decision-making and outreach purposes. It emphasises why visualization matters, what matters when work- ing with data visualization and how to make data visualization matter even more. It combines well-established good practices in the domain of data visuali...
