Organized by: UiT The Arctic University of Norway (Research Group on Crime Control and Security Law) & Max Planck Institute for the Study of Crime, Security and Law (Otto Hahn Research Group on Alternative and Informal Systems of Crime Control and Criminal Justice)
In our globalized world crime has become technical, complex and transnational, while legal orders have become ponderous and overloaded. This has increased the practical significance of new and alternative mechanisms and institutions aimed at strengthening the effectiveness and efficiency of crime control and criminal justice systems.
In an era of multiple novel challenges in the fight against crime, a plethora of new technological applications has emerged in parallel to traditional enforcement and judicial practices, set to serve a variety of purposes: from mass surveillance, predictive policing, and crime detection to risk and recidivism assessment, the processing of evidence, and the determination of criminal punishment.
The design and implementation of effective, transparent, coherent, and human rights-oriented policy plans and regulations in these fields require a better understanding of the inner workings of these highly sophisticated technologies on the part of legal theory and practice. At the same time, IT experts and developers must also have a firm grasp of the main legal principles and concepts underlying the operation of contemporary legal systems.
In order to explore both the opportunities and practical benefits in the fight against crime as well as the considerable risks for the peaceful co-existence of humans and the rule of law associated with new, constantly evolving surveillance and investigative methods, tools of Artificial Intelligence, and other types of technological advancements in modern risk societies, the UiT- The Arctic University of Norway (Research Group on Crime Control and Security Law) and the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Crime, Security and Law (Otto Hahn Research Group on Alternative and Informal Systems of Crime Control and Criminal Justice) are co-organizing an interdisciplinary Academic Conference on “Crime Control, Security and New Technologies” and a Postdoc & PhD Workshop on “AI in Criminal Justice: Legal and IT Perspectives”.
