Automated (un)justice? Algorithmic governmentality in police investigation and criminal law (2021-2022)
Over the past decades, autonomous systems (e.g. lethal autonomous weapons systems, systems for data mining and analysis, robotic surgical devices, algorithm-based analytic and predictive software) have gradually been introduced to replace humans in carrying out functions in a number of areas. These areas include the control and security domain (i.e. in the form of predictive policing and automated judicial sentencing systems. These systems’ increasing ability to act on their own with limited human control raises many criminological, legal and ethical concerns. The overall objective of this research is to explore how the law enforcement, i.e. police investigations and criminal justice at the national level and enforcement of international law at the international level, is changing with the ever-increasing use of autonomous systems. In so doing we will aim to determine how and why autonomous systems might be useful and beneficial to society on the one hand, and how and why they might represent a risk for human rights and other fundamental values of our societies on the other hand. The final purpose of the research is to identify the conditions of possibility under which it will be possible to use algorithmic justice as a way to increase not only the efficiency and efficacy of the use of police resources or our knowledge about the functioning of the criminal justice system, but to achieve better-informed and non-discriminatory outcomes.
