Law Scenarios to 2030

First ever scenarios for the future of law presented!

 The Law Scenarios to 2030 were exclusively presented and distributed during the 2011 Law of the Future Conference. About 200 of the best legal brains worldwide discussed how law will evolve in the next 20 years. The Mayor of The Hague Jozias van Aartsen officially accepted the first copy of the Law Scenarios to 2030 and The Law of the Future and the Future of Law publication.

 

The Law Scenarios to 2030 received general praise from the attendees. Many conference participants enquired about the possibilities of hosting a Law of the Future workshop that focuses on their specific business sector, or their part of the world.
 

Signposting the legal space of the future

The Law Scenarios to 2030 provide three wind tunnels in which ideas and strategies concerning the law of the future can be tested and debated. The scenarios help us think, imagine, conceptualise and debate in order to make law more than just a reactive force. A force that helps shape a better future.

The Law Scenarios to 2030 are part of the Law of the Future Forum, which brings together creative thinkers from practice and academia to reflecton alternative futures for law and legal systems. Download PDF
