Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: This Afterword to Eyal Benvenisti’s EJIL Foreword, ‘Upholding Democracy amid the Challenges of New Technology: What Role for the Law of Global Governance?’ focuses on two sets of issues that Benvenisti analysed. These issues are the multi-fold dimensions of global administrative law and the role of the law of global governance before new technologies, with particular reference to fake news and disinformation, which is probably one of the most harmful contemporary threats against democracy in our time.
