This Research Handbook critically examines the complex relationship between social media and the law. Expert scholars and practitioners analyze key issues through both practical and theoretical lenses, highlighting opportunities for advancing legal scholarship in the field.
Featuring perspectives from Asia, Australia, Europe and North America, chapters address the impact of social media in a wide range of global settings.

They shed light on the challenges presented by social media in the courtroom and at the workplace, evaluating possible solutions and underscoring the need for the jury system to adapt to ongoing change. The Research Handbook concludes by considering the future of social media and the law, exploring the emerging potential of the metaverse and suggesting innovative alternatives to traditional research methods.
