MMR publishes article on »Regulation as Code« by Johannes Felsner

On October 15, 2025, the article »Democracy and Rule of Law Requirements for the Concept of Regulation as Code – Codified Laws – Taming Constitution?« by our research assistant Johannes Felsner was published in MMR.

The article analyzes how the codification of law into program code can be reconciled with constitutional requirements. It demonstrates that »Regulation as Code« cannot be implemented constitutionally without the implementation of accompanying measures by the legislature, while highlighting the opportunities that arise from the coding of law in the digital age.
