STRATEGIC DIRECTIONS OF DEVELOPMENT IN THE FIELD OF DIGITALIZATION OF LAW AS PRIORITIES OF INFORMATION LEGAL POLICY
Abstract
The article is devoted to the study of digital transformation of law from the perspective of prioritizing information legal policy. The necessity of this approach is due to the fact that the randomness and opacity of actions in the chosen field is detrimental both for the Digital Economy federal program of the Russian Federation and for the process of digital changes in general. Therefore, this article concludes that now, more than ever, it is important to take planned and transparent decisions, that is, the involvement of legal policy instruments. It is this view of digital transformation through the prism of legal information policy that ensures the scientific novelty of the article. Also, in this study, it is proposed to consider the creation and legislative consolidation of the terminological apparatus of the digitalization process, changing the status and expanding the scope of electronic documents (including a possible change in the oficial unit of information from document on data), increasing the transparency of digital modernization processes of both law and state. The practical aspect is reflected in the options for solving the problems posed and assessing the prospects of each of the proposed solutions: in the irst direction, the concept of digitalization, computerization and informatization, digital and electronic should be clearly distinguished, the term "digital environment" should be deined; in the second, choose one of the three proposed options (lay down the wider use of electronic documents in legal norms, separate the concepts of electronic and digital documents and set the legal status of the latter, refuse the document as a legally significant unit of information storage in favor of a purely digital unit - data); in the third, to ensure the semantic accessibility of strategic information and the channels for its wide dissemination, as well as improving the information culture of the population and its ability to perceive digital modernization).
