Projektbeskrivelse:
Afhandlingen beskæftiger sig med krav fra Den Europæiske Menneskerettighedskonvention af forvaltningsretlig relevans for at afklare, hvornår den almindelige danske forvaltningsret er modtagelig over for disse krav. Formålet er at skabe klarhed over om og hvordan, konventionen påvirker den almindelige forvaltningsret.

Projektbeskrivelse:
Ph.d.-projektet har til formål at beskrive og analysere den nuværende regulering mod diskrimination i dansk (og nordisk) politivirksomhed. Der er i denne forbindelse særligt fokus på etnisk profilering. Det vurderes overordnet, hvorvidt national ret og praksis på området er i overensstemmelse med øvrig dansk ret og Danmarks menneskeretlige forpligtelser. Analysen suppleres af en komparativ analyse af de danske, norske og svenske juridiske rammer og praksis på området. Det tilsigtes desuden at supplere med en undersøgelse af politiets anvendelse af predictive policing-teknologier og disses mulige direkte eller indirekte fremme af etnisk profilering mv. Projektet udarbejdes om en artikelbaseret ph.d.-afhandling.

Project description:
Social media platforms are playing a vital role in our daily lives. However, while we are catching up on the news or sharing our personal accomplishments on a social media platform, the social media company is harvesting our personal data to maximize our engagement with its platform through personalized content. They also exploit our personal data to steer us into the interest of their customers by political or commercial microtargeting advertisements. Moreover, the underlying algorithm of social media platforms enables malicious actors to target their vulnerable audience with personalized disinformation. This project tries to explore how would personalized content (disinformation) and microtargeting advertisements on social media amount to manipulation and how would international and European human rights law respond to that. The project continues to answer whether social media users’ consent would justify them being exposed to manipulative contents, and whether there is (or should be) a right to access non-manipulative social media.

Project description:
My PhD project inquires into the possibilities of regulating the digital economy under international economic law. The project’s more specific focus is with the relevance of international trade law and international investment law as legal frameworks challenged by addressing data and crypto-assets.

Project description:
Rights of nature are gaining traction. Several countries have adopted rights of nature laws (at constitutional, national, and local level) or recognised the rights of nature in court judgments. These laws and legal sources inter alia recognise that nature is a subject of the law, and, in certain cases, grant specific legal rights to nature. Born out of an Earth-centred or ecological paradigm, rights of nature (laws) present a fundamental challenge to the otherwise anthropocentric or human-centric system of law and governance.
Set against these developments, the PhD project studies the relationship(s) between the rights of nature and human rights in jurisdictions that recognise both categories of right-holders. Mindful that most legal and governance systems remain anthropocentric, individualistic and mechanistic in their very structure, the project will investigate what happens at the interface between the old paradigm (most existing individual human rights) and the new, ecological paradigm (the rights of nature). Questions to be explored include> When rights conflict (as they often do), whose rights prevail and under what circumstances? Is there a risk that the prevailing (anthropocentric) legal order will subsume and swallow the ecological one, rendering the rights of nature “mere rhetoric”? If so, what would it take for the ecological paradigm to penetrate the anthropocentric machinery of law?
