Predictive AI systems are increasingly transforming criminal law from a reactive system based on guilt and rule-of-law guarantees to a preemptive regime of risk calculation, surveillance, and algorithmic classification. This book offers a critical, interdisciplinary analysis of how predictive policing, algorithmic risk assessment, and data-driven governance alter fundamental rights, democratic legitimacy, and the rule of law in constitutional democracies.
Moving beyond reformist approaches focused on transparency and bias, it develops a normative response centred on the right to freedom from algorithmic classification and the principle of anti-surveillance immunity against algorithmic dominance.
