Volume 21(2) of the Indian Journal of Law and Technology (IJLT), NLSIU, Special Issue
The Indian Journal of Law and Technology (IJLT) is an open-access, peer-reviewed, student-run journal published by the National Law School of India University (NLSIU), Bengaluru. Established in 2005, IJLT was the first journal in India dedicated exclusively to the analysis of the relationship between law and technology. Over the past two decades, it has provided a sustained forum for research on technology regulation, encompassing themes such as data governance, intellectual property, platform regulation, information security, algorithmic accountability, artificial intelligence regulation, and the broader implications of digitalisation across areas of law.
In 2025, IJLT completes twenty years since its founding. To commemorate this occasion, the journal seeks to publish a Special Issue for Volume 21(2) that reflects upon its trajectory and its position as a technology-focused journal located within the Global South, specifically, on the theme of Global South Perspectives on Technology Regulation. The Special Issue is conceived as an opportunity to articulate a set of contemporary policy concerns that emerge, in distinctive ways, from contexts in the Global South and countries at the periphery of developing technologies, particularly in light of recent developments in the realm of technology. The detailed Concept Note for this issue is available here.
