Luncheon Series Talk on "Technological Due Process" with Danielle Citron

This past Tuesday, Danielle Citron of the University of Maryland Law School joined us to talk about "Technological Due Process," as part of the Berkman Center's Tuesday Luncheon Series. 

From Danielle: Today, computer systems make decisions about important individual rights—they terminate Medicaid benefits, decide who is not allowed to fly commercial airlines, and mislabel individuals as dead-beat parents. Last century’s due process norms, however, are ill-suited to protect individuals from arbitrary agency action. At the same time, automation impairs participatory rulemaking, the traditional stand-in for individualized due process. My piece develops a new model of procedural regularity and policy-making that can operate when pivotal government decisions are made by automated systems and the programmers who design them.
