Lee A. Bygrave

Open publisher page 212 citations

Abstract

Abstract Although over 100 countries have developed data privacy laws, there is a lack of expert guidance on these laws. This text examines the fundamental aims and principles of data privacy law, along with the mechanisms for its enforcement in an international context. The book analyses relevant law from around the globe, paying particular attention to international instruments and using these as a foundation for examining national law. It also places data privacy law within a broader legal and political framework, focusing upon its interrelation with related fields, such as human rights, administrative law, and intellectual property rights.
