The call for papers is now open for the thematic dossier "Privacy and Protection of Personal Data in Public Security and Criminal Proceedings" of the IDP's Public Law Journal, coordinated by our researchers along with professors Laura Schertel Mendes and Jacqueline Abreu.
This report is part of the activities of CEDIS/IDP and seeks to contribute to the theoretical debate regarding the legal limits and the relevant regulatory model for privacy-invasive practices and/or practices based on the processing of personal data employed in the context of state activities aimed at public security and criminal investigations.
Its objective is to foster both lines of debate through the publication of cutting-edge national and international multidisciplinary research on the impact and preservation of privacy and personal data protection in relation to investigative techniques and public security policies. Papers proposing empirical, epistemological, theoretical, and regulatory approaches to these practices and their impact on fundamental rights will be accepted.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
– Historical approaches to the regulation of privacy and data protection in the administrative context of public security and in the criminal and criminal procedure context;
– Regulatory strategies and models;
What should specific Brazilian legislation regarding data protection in public security and criminal proceedings be like?
What types of investigative measures constitute violations of privacy, and what limits does this right impose on such techniques, in terms of formal and substantive requirements for them to be carried out?
The impact of the use of big data, facial recognition, and other new technologies based on the use of personal data in policing and criminal proceedings;
– The doctrines applied by Brazilian jurisprudence regarding privacy and personal data in the field of criminal procedure and public security, and their virtues, deficiencies, and real consequences;
Informal practices of data use by police authorities (such as "suspect books") and their legality, practical consequences, and legal responses;
The role of the use of personal data in new forms of police discretion;
– Data sharing between authorities with different competencies (public security vs. criminal investigation);
How existing problems in the protection of privacy and personal data in the context of public security and criminal proceedings are amplified or mitigated by the use of new technologies;
– Constitutionality and Regulation of databases on genetic material;
– Limits of public-private partnerships and regulatory framework;
New mechanisms that threaten or protect the presumption of innocence and due process in the context of vested interests.
