Abstract

This book is a collection of essays from scholars at Singapore Management University School of Law analysing the challenges and implications of COVID-19 from the perspective of different areas of law, including private law, corporate law, insolvency law, data protection, financial laws, public law, privacy law, commercial law, constitutional law, law and technology, and dispute resolution. It also analyses how the COVID-19 pandemic will affect the judicial system, the study of law, and the future of the legal profession. Beyond considerations of the pandemic’s influence on law and legal service delivery the authors consider how law can help facilitate the orderly transition to a sustainable future – the new normal.

Keywords: COVID-19, law, contract, commercial, corporate, insolvency, privacy, technology, AI, trust, governance, public law, dispute resolution, legal education, judicial system, society

JEL Classification: Law and COVID-19
