The development of new technologies has led to the creation of new rights to guarantee values such as privacy, genetic identity or forgetfulness. But phenomena such as social networks or artificial intelligence are putting a wide range of so-called fundamental rights to the test. How is it possible to reconcile the core values of societies with the fragmentation and proliferation of rights emerging from technological change? Can we really talk about a Digital Constitutional Law? And what is the point of legislating at national level in a context with global actors and producers?
The subject comes up for debate in "From Cover to Back Cover" with Jorge Pereira da Silva, author of the essay "Fundamental Rights of the Digital Age" published by the Francisco Manuel dos Santos Foundation, and Luís Neto Galvão, a lawyer and specialist in Information Technology and Data Protection Law.
