Digital Justice for Consumers

The workshop will assess how the increasing ease and speed that we are able to purchase goods and services online exposes consumers to the increasing risk of new types of disputes.  Please visit the Eventbrite page for registration.

The international panel of speakers will consider how traditional legal institutions are inadequate for this new digital world of cross-border commerce and assess the extent of this 'Digital Justice Gap', with the aim of proposing solutions for a new global digital justice framework.

Professor Ethan Katsh and Dr Orna Rabinovich-Einy will discuss their new book published by the OUP (2017) titled: Digital Justice: Technology and the Internet of Disputes.
