Exploring how justice is delivered at a time of rapid technological transformation, Justice in the Digital State exposes urgent issues surrounding the modernisation of courts and tribunals whilst examining the effects of technology on established systems. Case studies investigate the rise of crowdfunded judicial reviews, the digitalisation of tribunals and the rise of ‘agile’ methodologies in building administrative justice systems. Joe Tomlinson’s cutting-edge research offers an authoritative and much-needed guide for navigating through the challenges of digital disruption.

''This book addresses issues of profound importance. Tomlinson argues that the growing use of technology forces us to revisit and possibly abandon existing ways of understanding how administrative justice operates.'' Maurice Sunkin, University of Essex

Joe Tomlinson is Lecturer in Public Law at King’s College London and Research Director of the Public Law Project.
