The concept points at new view of the world: from a world based on mechanic technologies—a mechanized, analogue world—to one that is characterized by digitization.The developments it includes have ethical and social implications and therefore also has an impact on the law. Requires not only new legal rules or interpretations of existing law, but above all a prudent reflection on the manner in which the law exists and hence the relationship between law, state, technology and society.

Based on algorithms predicting where there likely will be crime, police patrol more often in certain parts of the city. the smart grid automatically regulates energy issues. By analysing health data, we can nudge people into a healthier life and redesign public spaces in such a way it helps citizens to make the right choices.
What is data-driven government?

As we have seen trust is a strategy to deal with the uncertainties in everyday life. On the vertical level, a society in which there is sufficient trust, people can cooperate, develop themselves and the things they care about (for example they can start a company or become a volunteer in their neighbourhood). In a society where there is trust among citizens, it is more likely people feel secure; moreover they rate their well being higher. When people trust each other interaction runs smooth.
Why is trust important to society?
500
Its is a networked digital world dictated by data in which added value is created based on immense amounts of data from which new knowledge is generated, for instance, by looking for patterns in data to point at a particular type of citizens that may be at risk (e.g. a child that lives in deprivation) or is a risk to society (e.g. criminals) in order to more easily identify those kinds of persons.
What is a data-driven environment?
500
notice, opportunity for a hearing, impartial adjudicator and judicial review,
What principles would big data due process hold?
500
transnationalization, digitization, and privatization
Which three processes have an impact on large-scale surveillance for national security purposes?
500
a step further than iGovernment. Policy is driven by data. We want to predict and focus not so much on why something happens (causality) but on the fact that something will happen (correlation). We nudge people into good behaviour. The environment is no longer passive but active
