| Workshop 2 : International Cooperation for Better Legislation and Public Participation | The workshop "International Cooperation for Better Legislation and Public Participation" intends to speculate methods and techniques for improving legal quality and access to legislation, how standards can contribute to legislative informatics and which tools are needed. The focus is on improving the quality and accessibility of legislation and public participation and promote in a new paradigm where the citizens and stakeholders are involved from the very beginning of the legislative process and where legislation, in order to favour this, strive to be “understandable” and not just a matter for “experts”. It is the concept of networked legislation : legislate by reconnecting with the citizens. Moreover the International Cooperation with other extra-EU regions (e.g. Africa) make this speculative research more challenging and promising to reach a real interoperability and robustness of the solutions and to promote better understating and collaboration among countries. |

| Workshop 2 : Law as a complex evolving system | During the JURIX 2003 Conference in Utrecht, the CERSA organized a meeting announcing that an Interdisciplinary Program on Complex Systems was in progress in Europe and in France. Law was presented as a part of this program. On November 25, 2006, the Groupement d’Intérêt Scientifique (GIS) “Réseau National Systèmes Complexes” which supports the General Program has been signed by several Scientific Institutions (CNRS, INRIA and more than 10 Scientific Organizations at this moment). It is time to think collectively on the way law can be inserted in this Program. Our colleagues from other scientific domains have already written a draft for a general road map. (See http://complexsystems.lri.fr/RNSC/). Today, the stake is to gather all the legal scientists, law researchers, law practioners to write a “road map” for studying Law as an evolutionary and dynamic complex systems. Everybody claims that law is becoming complex but without means to deal with this complexity The workshop 2 will take the opportunity of the presence of other legal scientists of 15 countries to debate on the main needs of research in this field. |
| 14 h - 15.30 h | Fundamentals on law and complex systems. What does the science of Complex systems mean ? What benefit for law? Does it echo in other legal systems? What is the science of complex systems ? Paul Bourgine, CREA, Polytechnique Complexity in environnemental and legal systems Pierre Mazzega, LMTG Observatoire Midi-Pyrénées. Round table Benefit for legal science and practice : examples in legistics and decision making. Daniele Bourcier, CNRS, Paris/Berlin, Filipe Borges, Ministère de la Jutice, Giovanni Sartor, Université de Bologne, Véronique Tauziac, Service de légistique. |
