The FDEF Law Department’s Prof. Herwig Hofmann and Dr. Felix Pflücke‘s presented the volume “Governance of Automated Decision-Making and EU Law” released with Oxford University Press, featuring publications by Oriol Mir of Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Päivi Leino-Sandberg, Miikka Hiltunen, Sam Wrigley of the University of Helsinki, Jens-Peter Schneider, Franka Enderlein, Simon Oles, Kester Siegrist of The University of Freiburg, Franziska Boehm of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Paulina Jo Pesch of FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, and Dr. Elif Biber (FDEF) and Davide Liga (FSTM) of the University of Luxembourg.
The book explores the impact of innovative information technologies and automated decision-making (ADM) on public decision-making processes within EU law. It examines how ADM challenges EU constitutional principles, accountability mechanisms, and the rule of law in the age of AI. Various chapters offer regulatory approaches to ensure democratically legitimated legislation continues to shape reality despite the rise of AI-driven administrative systems.
The book has been published under the Horizon 2020 NORFACE project “Information in the EU’s Digitalised Governance” with support of the Luxembourg National Research Fund (FNR), the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) – German Research Foundation, the Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI), and the Research Council of Finland | Suomen Akatemia.
