Summary:

"The Internet has brought about unprecedented changes to modern life, creating a connected society but also radically opening up the question of how to design and apply legal rules in a digital world. This thoroughly revised second edition provides an updated exploration of the latest developments and controversies in European Internet law. Paying close attention to recent acts and proposals, including the Digital Services Act (DSA), Digital Markets Act (DMA), AI Act and others, this Research Handbook traces the developments of main regulatory ideas; provides criticism of the methods, principles, approaches and enforcement; and gives a critical analysis of the normative side of regulation. The expert contributors are clustered around the main regulatory fields and each deals adeptly with one or more of the key features of the passed or proposed acts. Providing a critical analysis of the EU's regulatory efforts in digital regulation, this discerning Research Handbook will be a useful reference tool for academics and postgraduate students specialising in international law, e-commerce, consumer law and IT law. It will also be of interest to practitioners, including governmental officials and data protection officers"-- Provided by publisher.
