SLOTS wants to take the challenge of coding of the law (also with non-textual forms) to build a solid constitutionally based legal framework supported by philosophy of law theory, legal-informatics and legal language foundations, which makes legally effective the machine-computable Law produced directly by Institutions. The most visible risk is that if not supported by solid theoretical scientific methodology, new e-legal system models based on the coding could be a new black-box not explainable to the common end-user.
To tackle such risk, this project aims to frame SLOTS in the key theoretical disciplines of law, including legal reasoning and artificial intelligence.
