Vol. 9 No. 3 (2020)

At the end of this historic year, when the COVID-19 pandemic became the center of attention in the most diverse sciences (including private law), studies on the many legal repercussions of the new coronavirus appear to have reached a point of saturation: all possible initial discussions have been held, and eventual future consequences will still require time and maturity to be known. With the approach of the new year and the hope of better times, ||civilistica.com invites the reader to turn their eyes to other (new) themes in the current scenario, presenting a selection of texts on the most pressing discussions on the protection of personal data and the fight against fake news, as well as proposing a change of perspective in already known topics, through interesting interdisciplinary studies, which bring together neuroscience and consumer protection, environmental law and literature, psychotherapy and family relations and so on. Studies on contractual balance, consent bias and the ghost writer’s legal regime complement our selection. We wish you all a great new year!
