innovative research agenda/outline

1. Convergence point: entrepreneurship

2. Aiming at transaction effectiveness

3. Pro-activity inspired on the evolution path of the internet governance regulatory developments and its affordances

4. key uncertainties

5. Conceptual development

6. Product

7. Specific doctrinal hypotheses (not QUAN)

8. Departing assumptions

General subject

"The institutionalization of collaborative and self regulatory capabilities for the networked society"

1. Effective mediatization of collaborative contract management experiences for the networked society

2. Usability and knowledge visualization for online dispute resolution processes. The institutionalization of collaborative and self regulatory capabilities for the networked society

3. Cooperation based competitiveness.  Capturing value through contractual management experiences using  technical interfaces.   Measuring the usability of online consumer redress mechanisms.


PHILOSOPHICAL CONTEXT




Balance between the epistemological, political, ethical and aesthetic dimensions. Hermeneutics and doctrinal argumentative analysis. Analogy, coherence, systematization, institutional interpretation, and observation are the methods to select relevant and valid data. The epistemological validity of these choices resides in its argumentative logic, inductive rationality, and the choice of institutional criteria

mapping of transactions



Possible interactions with legal relevance, in both the field of the concrete entrepreneurial activity and its context; classification according to disciplinary boundaries and analysis of their UX and degree to which they can be helped by mediatization.

Example: Purchasing, storage, customer complaints handling and redress, meetings with investors, disciplinary controls within the company, etc.

general research questions

1.  Has the role of private actors in the internet governance regulatory context  been effectively established?


2. Are formal institutionalization processes of ADR effectively improving dispute resolution and conflict management competences or affecting transactional practices?


3. How to facilitate/induce collaborative negotiation and contractual experiences using innovative business model tools, technology, and usability principles? Context: small ventures


research structure/design

Theoretical section:

1. Describing the context, explaining the multidisciplinary connections, integrating the theory (sociopolitical, organizational, managerial and legal aspects), proposing a common ground around collaborative competences

2.  Identifying and developing concrete practical applications in the field of transactional models for companies (usable, efficient and effective contracts and technical applications), and legal education targets: transforming  goals and methodologies towards a preventive and collaborative law for the digital economy, or a business model for legal services by design


Key uncertainties

Empirical possibilities:

1. Exploring the correlations of transactional usability, dispute resolution experiences, and collaboration.
Required prototype: a contractual model on an ODR interface. Study group of minimum 100 participants that would be using the system and discussing their experience. 

2. Determining the level to which education and technology induce or facilitate transactional collaboration (persuasive technologies on typical contracts). 

Required instrument: interviews and questionnaires. Concrete methodology: IPSEUS and in-depth interviews. 

Conceptual process development

- Global Governance

- Networked Society principles and perspectives

- Institutionalization processes

- Stakeholders

- Opportunities: participation
- Responsibilities: self-regulation

- Competences: collaboration

Applications of perspective: contractual experiences in dispute prevention and conflict management and/or a business model for legal services by design (start ups on law services).



Product

RP: AssumptionS


1. The contractual process experiences in dispute resolution and conflict management can be improved for customers

 2. Computer interfaces can become a product/service offering in which transactions with customers could be pleasant, effective and induce collaboration.

3. Principles from information design and technology are applicable to  Online contracting and Dispute Resolution platforms.





Theoretical convergence









Divergence has to be supported by the  culture:  exploration, creativity,  not always orderly and planned, etc.

assumption 1




A piece of legislation, an agreement or a contract -in itself- is not the goal of a human transactional relationship, but relational transformation and successful implementation are.


assumption 2




Implementation, in turn, means adoption and action, often a change of behavior, on the part of the intended individuals and organizations


assumption 3




Contractual usability through legal visualization and collaborative interaction should incentivize compliance and facilitate contract management strategies. (boundary object theory? user centered design and iterative)


assumption 4




Collaborative interaction and legal visualization techniques can turn legal documents into usable products. These documents may consist of data, information, or knowledge.

survey

1. Which ONE word comes to mind when thinking about collaboration ? 
2. Which ONE word comes to mind when thinking about self-regulation?
3. What in your experience/opinion, are TWO of the most frequent transactions that businesses should care about the most?
