With great excitement, we announce the publication of the editorial book “Law in the Age of Digital Technologies”, released by Milano University Press. The book was prepared by an editorial team comprising Prof. Francesca C. Villata, Prof. Mirela Župan, Prof. Katarina Trimmings, and Dr. Giulia Gabrielli. This publication has emerged as an additional outcome of the project “Time to Become Digital in Law (DIGinLaw)”, carried out with the support of the Erasmus+ programme in partnership with the University of Aberdeen, the University of Milan, the University of Osijek, and the University Computing Centre of the University of Zagreb.

The contributions featured in the book explore the major legal challenges and implications arising from digitalisation. The authors examine how emerging technologies—such as AI systems, facial recognition, DLT, and smart contracts—are reshaping legal frameworks, raising critical human rights concerns, and highlighting the need for more explicit regulation of contemporary technologies. Additionally, the book delves into the transformation of legal education in the digital age.

The book is available in open access for interested scholars and practitioners.

Congratulations to all contributors for their valuable work!
