Policy of Using Digital Technologies in Jurispudence: Russian and Foreign Experience

Abstract

In today's rapidly changing world, where the geopolitical situation is constantly changing, society is undergoing a transformation, accompanied by the formation of a new information environment. The creation and implementation of artificial intelligence, as well as the active use of digital technologies, are becoming an integral part of our reality. Digital technologies that require new regulatory frameworks include: big data, artificial intelligence, distributed ledger systems (blockchain), quantum technologies, new manufacturing technologies and the industrial internet. The main objective of the policy for regulating digital technologies in the field of jurisprudence is the development and implementation of new legislative acts that will provide a solid legal basis for the emergence, development and implementation of economic transactions related to the use of digital technologies. Analytical studies conducted on the basis of foreign experience show that under the influence of digital technologies, an inevitable change in the legal sphere of society occurs. Domestic and foreign scientists believe that digitalization leads to a transformation of the image of law, its regulatory role, as well as to a change in the boundaries and limits of the law. To achieve this goal, it is necessary not only to make adjustments to some existing legal norms, but also to conduct a thorough revision of fundamental legislative acts, such as the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, the Labor Code of the Russian Federation and other fundamental documents. New technologies require a new approach from government agencies, advocacy communities and law firms. In order to remain competitive and ensure their existence, all participants in the legal field must be prepared to use the opportunities provided by legal programming technologies. Given the potential for the introduction and development of new technologies in the legal field, special attention should be paid to legal scientific education. It should correspond to rapidly changing technologies so that future lawyers can effectively apply professional tools in their work.
