Open Legislative Data in Paris II – Time has come for Law Tracking
About this event
28 May 2014 from 11:00 until 19:30
As websites providing users with various data concerning their parliament are multiplying worldwide, as the digital revolution challenges the fundamentals of the representative regimes, the Law Factory Team, a French group composed of hacktivists (Regards Citoyens) and academics (Centre d’études européennes & médialab Sciences Po) holds an international conference to examine how IT technologies and the web can help understand or improve parliamentary procedures. The aim of the conference is to:
– Discuss, present and compare the latest developments regarding law tracking, i.e. the visualization and analysis of the legislative procedure through computer analysis
– Gather and mix two communities that rarely communicate: the academic world of legislative studies and individuals and organizations from across the open data and parliamentary informatics spectrum
