Critics Review

Debates about using technology in the legal domain are often abstract and decontextualized. This volume brings together jurists from diverse jurisdictions to reflect on how technology is reshaping the realities and discourses of legal practice in Asia. It will be a valuable resource for those seeking a grounded understanding of the promises and pains of enlisting technology to enhance the administration of justice.–Benjamin Chen, The University of Hong KongThis book is a welcome addition to the body of literature on the digital transformation of the public sector in Asia. Its authors offer deep dives into the processes and implications of digitalising justice, providing an important array of practices and perspectives from the Majority World.–Jun-E Tan, Khazanah Research Institute
