University of Toronto Faculty of Law will host a conference entitled, “The Constitution of Information: From Gutenberg to Snowden,” on May 28-29, 2015.
“This conference will bring together diverse scholars who have explored different aspects of information and communications technology on our basic rights and liberties and asks them to reach beyond their specialized conversations to take account of the bigger picture: is the information age fundamentally reshaping our constitutional order? How should law respond? Our aim is to expand the scope of our understanding beyond how the law or discrete laws constitute information to the Constitution of information.”
