Institutet för rättsinformatik
Encyclopedia
IRI is the Swedish Law & Informatics Research Institute within the Faculty of Law at Stockholm University. The institute examines the relationship and interaction between law and IT. IRI not only focuses on legal issues of technology and the Internet (Legal aspects of computing
), but also on the development of technical solutions within the legal field (Legal informatics
).
IRI was founded in 1968 as the Working Party for EDP and Law. The Party enabled specialised research into the fields Legal informatics
and Legal aspects of computing
and was also very successful in supporting a network of lawyers within these fields. In 1981 the Working Party was rearranged into IRI at Stockholm University and as part of the networking the Swedish association for IT and law (ADBJ) was established.
The Swedish Law & Informatics Research Institute also runs the team blog
