This comprehensive volume brings together leading scholars and practitioners to provide an in-depth analysis of AI regulation in the European Union, with a special focus on the EU Artificial Intelligence Act and its far-reaching implications.

In this volume by Wolters Kluwer, co-edited by Peggy Valcke, Ceyhun Necati Pehlivan and Nikolaus Forgó, leading experts analyse the key legal frameworks, including the AI Act and the AI Liability Directive. The book offers both academic insights and a detailed article-by-article commentary that provides essential perspectives on the legal, social and economic implications of AI regulation.

Among others, aspects such as the main intersections of AI with competition law, data protection, intellectual property and human rights; a detailed commentary on the proposal for an EU Directive on AI liability; a broad range of regulatory issues such as fairness, accuracy, transparency, humanity, trustworthiness, sustainability and gender equality and many other topics of this burgeoning area of law are analysed in depth by the authors.

In association with the launch of this book, the event ‘Untangling the EU Artificial Intelligence Act: AI Literacy and Governance’ will take place on 28 February 2025. Further information can be found here.
