Description

Digisprudence: Code As Law Rebooted by Laurence E. Diver is a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection of law and technology. The author draws on insights from legal theory, philosophy of technology, and programming practice to develop a new approach to designing legitimate software. This book critically examines the rules that govern code, arguing that they should exhibit certain formal characteristics if they are to be acceptable in a democracy. Through its interweaving of theory and practice, Digisprudence sheds light on real-world technologies such as blockchain applications and the Internet of Things (IoT), offering valuable insights into the 'constitutional' role played by programming languages, integrated development environments (IDEs), and agile development practice.
