Description
Class Actions in Privacy Law by Ignacio N. Cofone explores the rapidly growing field of class actions as a means for citizens to hold corporations accountable for privacy violations. This book brings together established scholars to offer a detailed perspective on the present and future of collective litigation for privacy claims. The analysis covers key areas, including consumer protection law, procedural law, cross-border litigation, tort law, and data protection law, which are crucial in understanding the development of privacy class actions. The book examines the novel challenges these actions pose for courts, regulatory agencies, scholars, and litigators, as well as potential solutions. By incorporating a comparative approach, this book provides an insightful look at the intersection of civil litigation, privacy law, and data protection, shedding light on the integral role that outcomes in class actions play in shaping the evolution of privacy law and data protection law across jurisdictions.
