Field/Discipline
Expertise
Sofia Ranchordas conducts research on public law and technology from an interdisciplinary perspective. She is particularly interested in how technology is disrupting traditional legal concepts in administrative law, in particular in the context of local regulation and governance (smart cities) and digital government. She has published extensively on the regulation of the sharing economy, online platforms, online citizen participation, and online rating and reputational mechanisms. Her current scholarship can be divided in three strands:
a) Administrative law and digitalization: smart cities, legal challenges of data-driven regulation and governance; impact of digitalization on the principles of good administration, and digital exclusion;
b) Regulation of online platforms and social media;
c) Temporary legislation and constitutional change: temporary and experimental legislation, free-zones ('regelluwe zones'), legislative entrenchment, sunset and sunrise clause.For more information see www.sofiaranchordas.com
