Legal Concept and Attributes of Legal Technology

This paper studies the concept and attributes of technology as a category in its various forms. The concept of technology is used in the social and human sciences, legal theory and practice, showing that it is no longer associated only with technical sciences and production environment; researchers have proven its significance for social and human sciences by tracing psychological, social, legal, and other technologies because, regardless of the application and the type of an individual technology, its essence is always manifested in some kind of transformation of reality and creating something qualitatively new and innovative. The higher pace of upgrading and updating law to effectively regulate an ever changing and transforming social environment has determined the interest of legal scholars in the possible introduction of the technology concept into legal operations as they always require efficiency, reasonableness, and reduction of relative costs. Scholars who have studied the benefits of introducing the concept of technology into legal sciences have clearly noted its potential to become a necessary factor of improved performance and efficiency of legal regulation; thereby revealing the social and value-based nature of this concept.
