The organising ideas are: law in context; ‘law in context’ becoming ‘law in a technological context’; disruptive technologies and their impact on law; the regulatory challenge presented by technological transition; and the challenges and opportunities presented by a transition in the mode of governance, from rules to tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTimely and forward-looking, this collection makes important inroads into broadening the field of legal study by placing law not simply in context but in, what is now, a technological context.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRoger Brownsword\u003c\/strong\u003e has been an academic lawyer for more than 50 years, currently having professorial positions at King’s College London, UK, and Bournemouth University, UK.
