The institution of legal liability in the digital age: international legal standards, administrative, financial and criminal aspects
Abstract
The article reveals the issue of the institution of legal responsibility in the context of digitalization of society. It is indicated that legal responsibility as a tool of coercion and restoration of law and order has always depended on the form of social relations. Today, digitalization has given rise not only to new objects of legal protection (personal data, digital assets, information security), but also to new subjects, such as platforms, algorithms, autonomous systems.
It is stated that the formation of the digital state leads to the transformation of traditional forms of public law responsibility, primarily administrative. In the digital age, not only the form of offenses is changing, but also the ways in which they are committed, recorded, detected and proven. Administrative liability is becoming a tool for rapid response to mass violations arising in the field of e-governance, personal data processing, cybersecurity, the use of digital platforms, artificial intelligence and telecommunication services. It is concluded that, accordingly, the institution of legal responsibility in the digital age is a system of prevention, regulation, self-control and international cooperation. It must be adaptive, technologically literate and human rights. It depends on the quality of legal mechanisms in the digital sphere whether the rule of law will remain effective in the context of digital transformation.
Keywords: digitalization, digital rights, legal responsibility, administrative responsibility, financial monitoring, criminal liability, international legal standards.
