Governance and Law in a Digital Society 

數字化社會的治理與法律

             Date: April 24, 2023 (Monday) 12:00 – 13:00 HKT

             Venue: Academic Conference Room, 11/F, Cheng Yu Tung Tower, The University of Hong Kong

             Language: Putonghua

內容提要:

從2023年4月開始,黃乾亨中國法研究中心將舉辦“中國大陸傑出學者系列”講座活動。 本次講座中,演講者將以物聯網、⼤數據、⼈⼯智能以及元宇宙等構成的⼈類數字化⽣存狀態為背景,分析經濟與社會正在經歷的深刻變化及其對現代國家治理⽅式和法律的深刻影響。所謂個⼈主權、分布式⾃治組織、社區規則重構秩序基礎,這⼀切新現象都指向制度範式⾰命的必要性。在虛實相⽣的條件下,數字的(digital)關係與模拟的(analogue)法律究竟應該如何定位和重構,已然成為法學、政治學以及社會學的⼀個重要的研究課題。⽽處於⾵險社會與數字國家的夾縫裡,中國內地和⾹港的雙重結構能否形成某種開閉⾃如的“⾛廊式制度”,從⽽有效銜接鏈上加密資產⽣態圈與鏈下國家主權管轄區,更值得今後關注和深⼊探討。

ABSTRACT

The Philip K.H. Wong Centre for Chinese Law is proud to introduce the Distinguished Mainland China Scholars Series featuring renowned legal scholars from top Chinese universities this semester. Our first webinar in this series will explore how our lives are becoming increasingly digitized through our interactions with artificial intelligence, the internet of things, Big Data and the Metaverse. The blurred boundaries between virtuality and reality have shone light on the need to rebuild the relationship between the digital and the analogue. Join us to learn about new phenomena such as "individual sovereignty", "distributed autonomous organizations" and the "reconstruction of the basis of order by community rules" and their implications for law, politics and sociology. Our speakers, leading academics from Mainland China, will discuss the necessary revolution in institutional paradigms and how China's dual structure that includes the Mainland and Hong Kong can form a "corridor mechanism" to connect the ecosystem of encrypted assets with the jurisdiction of sovereign states. Don't miss out on this opportunity to delve into this exciting and relevant topic.
