Research Project Keio 2040 (Security): Platforms and the"2040 Problem"-formation of a new Network space order

Security

Summary

Platform

This project focuses on the function of the platform to solve the various problems that may arise with the super-aged society - the "2040 problem" - and aims to create a new order in the network space. In order to maximise the positive aspects and minimise the negative aspects that platforms can bring about, cutting-edge legal and political scientists in collaboration with practitioners will examine the process of forming a new order in the network space as well as the functions and challenges of platforms in specific fields.
