Paper Title

-- By JoseMariaDelajara - 05 Oct 2019

The problem

Government officials won't allocate budget and staff to publish data unless it is claimed by the people. They are aware that data transparency leads to accountability, and they prefer to act under less risky terms. This lack of transparency is particularly worrying in the judiciary, as the progress in opening judicial data sets has been slower than that of the legislative and executive branches. Sooner rather than later, enough people will be aware of the value of their own personal data and the extent to which it is used to predict behavior. This acknowledgement could ease the path towards a stronger open justice and open government movement. In turn, data analytics will eventually show judicial decisions as they really are: irrational yet predictable. When we face the complete picture of our flawed justice system, will we still accept it?

Open justice

Less corruption

Limits

Will we like our reflection in the mirror?
