Normative Colonialism in The Age of Digitalization

This study analyzes the dynamics of harmonization, systematization, and normative attraction among European legal systems, within the context of a physiological regulatory fragmentation, particularly evident in the normative frameworks governing technological innovations. In this context, algorithmic processing, data protection, and national security express heterogeneous legal sensitivities and divergent interpretations, reflecting structural and conceptual differences among states. From a perspective of coherence and rationalization, the need for a unified normative framework rooted in the foundational principles of the Union emerges, capable of governing the emerging tensions between the European, American, and Asian regulatory models, whose comparison is becoming increasingly intense and globally relevant
