Abstract

This forum arises from the national project of research (P.R.I.N.) “LAILA – Legal Analytics for Italian LAwµ, that has been granted in 2017 by the Italian Minister of University and Research. The Department of Law of the University of Naples Federico II joined this programme with a local research unit, whose main purpose has been to collect socio-cultural data in judicial decisions and to analyse them also by using a clinical-legal methodology and the main tools of the theory of interpretation and argumentation. Then, the collected data have been shared with other local units in order to verify if it is possible to develop a predictive legal model of the judicial decisions. In this forum we try to highlight our research main issues, by combining empirical data, the legislative and jurisprudential frame ruling the international protection matter and, some philosophical and legal implications regarding the use of artificial intelligence in the legal field.
