Digitalization in Law
Broadcast
Amid highly complex international relations, the process of harmonizing legislation across countries, driven by the need to interact and cooperate to maintain global stability, takes on particular importance. In this context, the development of digital technologies, especially artificial intelligence, creates new opportunities for deeper convergence between global legal systems while also reinforcing national sovereignty. What forms of convergence between global legal systems align with the interests of the Russian Federation today? What advantages does this convergence offer Russia? What role do artificial intelligence and other digital technologies play in advancing digital legal development? How will strengthening national sovereignty support the digital transformation of public governance? How might the convergence of global legal systems affect global stability?
