Center on Law and Information Policy

With the increasing societal reliance on information technology and rapidly outdated laws, Fordham recognized an evolution in the regulatory challenges facing the global information-based economy. In response to these changes, the Center on Law and Information Policy (CLIP) was founded in 2005 to be on the cutting edge of scholarship and legal education in the emerging field of information law.

Specific issues in fields such as intellectual property and information privacy have begun to raise broader questions of regulatory theory and values in the growing information economy. This shift to broader questions reflects a basic and enduring need to understand the regulatory implications of an information-based economy. It is CLIP's goal to explore these evolving regulatory implications.
