Think Pieces by experts

Some of the world’s best academics and leading practitioners are involved in the Law of the Future Programme. More then 100 experts have been consulted through interviews and Think Pieces. The 49 Think Pieces are compiled into the exclusive 750 pages publication The Law of the Future and the Future of Law.

 

What has emerged from the submissions is a particularly rich and diverse body of knowledge and wisdom. General and particular insights and trends have been distilled from the Think Pieces and are used as building blocks for the Law Scenarios to 2030.
