Additionally, their danger in some cases may exceed the danger of traditional crimes. Furthermore, this type of newly established crimes is not limited by geographical boundaries, as they cross borders. Therefore, legislators in various countries around the world have directed their efforts towards enacting special legislation and laws that aim to combat this type of crimes.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p> <p> <br /><span data-contrast="auto"> Undoubtedly, the distinction of this type of crime from traditional crimes requires that the concerned agencies responsible for investigating and detecting them possess technical capabilities and resources that qualify them for this responsibility. At the same time, it requires the existence of specialized judiciary with special abilities that enable them to deal with these crimes. This study aims to identify the different legislative plans regarding granting jurisdiction to specialized judges to consider information technology crimes. The study focuses, through the comparative method, on identifying the legislative approach in some Arab and European countries in order to identify the most effective ways to combat this type of crime and achieve justice.

Transcontinental relationships and the diversity of legal systems, along with the mechanisms they have established to protect and guarantee intellectual property rights, have led to numerous transactions and disputes related to the trading of intellectual property assets. However, with data and information becoming a resource whose importance and value rival other natural resources, these interests have grown. Intellectual capital has become a fundamental factor in determining capital value, and business organizations are now focusing heavily on building capital from intellectual property assets to establish competitive entities that extend across different countries.</p> <p>Perhaps one of the most prominent achievements of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, witnessed in the digital age, is artificial intelligence and its applications. Its impact has extended to various aspects of life and diverse services that concern people in general and economic enterprises in particular, enabling them to think, plan, and organize with the same efficiency as the human mind.</p> <p>Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the most advanced technologies of the modern era, presenting numerous opportunities and challenges in the field of valuation and its regulations. While AI tools can enhance the efficiency of valuation results, their use raises ethical questions regarding transparency, accountability, and fairness in the equitable assessment of intellectual property assets during transactions or disputes.</p> <p>Although the use of AI in the justice system is not yet a routine part of judicial decision-making in the economic valuation of intellectual property infringements and the assessment of compensation, its impact is real and warrants attention before its full adoption.

Therefore, reaching legal solutions to the main problem on which this study is based is embodied in the legitimacy of replacing many aspects of human judicial activities, and digitizing the procedures associated with the legal litigation system, which will be supported by technologies related to artificial intelligence requirements. This requires us to analyze the impact of artificial intelligence technologies on justice systems, and the problems related to the use of artificial intelligence applications in the justice system, and how artificial intelligence applications can support the work of judges, while we can overcome the main threats to traditional justice values, which are produced by Predictive within the framework of developing the work of the judicial system.</p>2026-07-26T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2026 Political Sciences and Law Serieshttps://journals.aabu.edu.jo/index.php/law/article/view/1972Digitalization and International Human Rights Law: the Protection of the Right to Digital Privacy in the AI Era2026-02-21T23:41:57+02:00Hamzah Suleiman Aldoghmihamzahaldoghmi@aabu.edu.jo<p><span class="TextRun SCXW12954478 BCX0" lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" data-contrast="auto"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW12954478 BCX0">Digital privacy rights in the age of artificial intelligence (AI) have become the critical </span><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW12954478 BCX0">component</span><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW12954478 BCX0"> of data safety and privacy rights within the modern digital environment.

Alkhateebnomail@nomail.com<p>Artificial intelligence is one of the most significant transformations that has enabled administration to perform its duties quickly, easily, and accurately. This has led to a complete transformation of the responsibilities it bears in managing and operating public facilities. This has been transformed from a simple, traditional form to a modern one through the use of AI-based tools and algorithms. This has simplified administration tasks. As a result, decision-making capabilities have been enhanced and new capabilities have been unleashed, which in turn contribute to preserving the most important principle of administrative law: the principle of the smooth and steady functioning of public facilities.</p> <p> </p> <p>This has prompted researchers to study the importance of the impact of this controversial technological revolution on the future of public facilities management and its impact on the development of public services provided to the public. This requires reshaping the roles and practices of professionals in this field within the newly created environment, with the aim of maximizing the benefits of the services provided by public facilities with ease and convenience, ensuring they are not hindered. On the contrary, this requires bringing them to the highest levels of professionalism and accuracy, ensuring the advancement of these services to the point of satisfying the needs of beneficiaries and achieving the public interest for which these facilities were created.</p> <p> </p> <p>The primary role of this development, including but not limited to digital transformation, is in providing these services, or what is known as smart government. This is what all countries strive to achieve, advancing the services they provide to their beneficiaries to the point of luxury. This is in addition to the emergence of what are known as smart administrative contracts, which rely on software and smart systems. This ensures the highest levels of transparency and enhances trust between the parties to this highly sensitive contractual process, as the administration is one of the parties. As a party to public law, its role is fundamentally focused on achieving the public interest through the services provided by the public utilities subject to the contract, which must be managed regularly and steadily to ensure the achievement of this goal. This calls for shedding light on the uses of artificial intelligence in public utilities and its impact on improving the services they provide.</p>2026-07-26T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2026 Political Sciences and Law Serieshttps://journals.aabu.edu.jo/index.php/law/article/view/1873The Use of Artificial Intelligence Technologies by Communicators in Jordan Television: An Analytical Study of Professional and Legal Dimensions2026-02-10T14:48:08+02:00.

The findings reveal that artificial intelligence enhances political participation through digital platforms by improving democratic interaction and analyzing public opinion trends, as well as precisely directing political campaigns using big data analytics techniques. However, significant challenges related to biases, censorship, and the dominance of major corporations emerge, which require appropriate regulation to ensure freedom of expression and digital equality. The study also shows that while artificial intelligence can strengthen democracy by improving political participation and decision-making, it could pose a threat if not adequately regulated, as it may lead to power concentration and undermine fundamental rights and freedoms. Digital censorship contributes to restricting freedom of expression, as AI and algorithmic recommendation systems are used to enforce control over digital activities, further manipulating public opinion in favor of ruling regimes. Finally, the use of artificial intelligence presents ethical challenges related to algorithmic bias and privacy violations, which foster discrimination against certain groups, negatively impacting justice and equality, and restricting freedom of expression and political pluralism.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559738":240,"335559739":240}"> </span></p> <p><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559738":240,"335559739":240}"> </span></p>2026-07-26T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2026 Political Sciences and Law Serieshttps://journals.aabu.edu.jo/index.php/law/article/view/1915Economic Analysis of Artificial Intelligence Applications and Their Role in Achieving Sustainable Development Goals "An Analytical and Applied Study on the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan"2026-02-17T09:29:31+02:00Ibrahim Abdullah Abdul Raouf Muhammadnomail@nomail.com<p><span data-contrast="auto"> </span><span data-contrast="auto">First and foremost, we would like to say that the discussion around Artificial Intelligence and its role in the global economy has increased significantly, as well as its important and growing role as a driver of productivity and economic growth, and its effective contribution to improving decision-making by analyzing large amounts of data.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">It should also be noted that artificial intelligence is considered one of the most important outcomes of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, due to its diverse applications in economic, educational, industrial, medical, and other fields.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">Despite the great importance of artificial intelligence applications and the global interest in their results, some express concerns and anticipate negative impacts from the increasing reliance on them.

The adoption of modern digital technologies in banking services has rendered banks an attractive environment for money launderers, who seek to exploit these features to conceal funds derived from illegal activities, so that after laundering they appear to originate from legitimate sources. As a result, traditional methods used to monitor and detect money laundering activities have become inadequate to keep pace with increasingly sophisticated and evolving techniques. This has prompted competent authorities to adopt new strategies that correspond to the nature of emerging risks, leading many states to rely on artificial intelligence systems as part of their efforts to combat money laundering. However, the effectiveness of these systems depends on their integration with human expertise to ensure genuine efficiency in identifying suspicious activities. This study aims to examine the role of artificial intelligence in combating money laundering and to assess its impact on the privacy of customers’ data, through an analysis of the traditional legal framework and the artificial intelligence mechanisms employed in this field.</p>2026-07-26T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2026 Political Sciences and Law Serieshttps://journals.aabu.edu.jo/index.php/law/article/view/1928Digital Facial verification/ recognition Technology, Legitimacy and Reliability2026-02-18T08:07:19+02:00Ahmed Mohamed Barakartificial.intelligence@aabu.edu.jo<p>Facial verification/ recognition technology using AI for facial print is a modern system for identifying people.

Artificial intelligence has caused a major shake-up in the legal field, leading to the emergence of some new ideas that have become a challenge to the legal system as a whole in the area of how to protect rights. Artificial intelligence is distinguished by its tremendous ability to perform by simulating human capabilities and senses, and sometimes even surpassing some of these capabilities. </p> <p>Artificial intelligence has become capable of creating and innovating directly without human intervention; simply by pressing the start button. Therefore, we believe that the super intelligence of artificial intelligence systems will be a watershed moment in the field of granting patent rights. Therefore, we must consider the current legislation and laws regulating the protection of intellectual property rights in general. Patents in particular, and also research into whether there is a change in the terms of protection that is consistent with this challenge. If artificial intelligence becomes capable of learning and creating on its own, this poses a new challenge to the current legal system, which requires that the applicant for a patent be a natural person, and other conditions that are difficult to meet in artificial intelligence . </p> <p>One of the main themes discussed in this research is how patents should be granted to inventions developed by AI systems without significant human intervention. The research also aims to propose legal recommendations that ensure a fair balance between encouraging innovation and protecting the rights of inventors in light of the rapid technological development of AI. </p>2026-07-26T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2026 Political Sciences and Law Serieshttps://journals.aabu.edu.jo/index.php/law/article/view/2121The use of artificial intelligence in courts2026-04-15T10:43:57+02:00Abdulaziz Al-Muzaini artificial.intelligence@aabu.edu.jo<p>It is important to note at the outset the importance of distinguishing between two different fields in the technological world. The first is information technology, which refers to the use of computers and technical systems to obtain, index, organize, and quickly retrieve information. The other field, which is the subject of this paper, is artificial intelligence, which refers to "computer systems that make logical inferences related to the human mind and can perform tasks that require human intelligence." That is, artificial intelligence analyzes, studies, and infers like the human mind, and is not merely about the speed of collecting, classifying, and indexing information as it was previously. Artificial intelligence, as described, is new to the judicial systems in the world, and countries are still researching and discussing the application of artificial intelligence in their judicial systems, which is what we will try to reveal in this paper, God willing.</p>2026-07-26T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2026 Political Sciences and Law Serieshttps://journals.aabu.edu.jo/index.php/law/article/view/1803Spatio-temporal crime maps and their role in crime reduction In light of artificial intelligence technologies2026-01-26T16:46:48+02:00Abdulla ALAJAMIartificial.intelligence@aabu.edu.jo<p><span data-contrast="auto"> </span><span data-contrast="auto">Developing effective crime prevention strategies depends on understanding the geographic realities of crime events and then predicting their number, location, and timing. In this regard, recent studies in the field of criminology research focus on the spatial and spatiotemporal analysis of criminal activities. Studies reveal that criminal activities exhibit similar spatial patterns with varying temporal patterns. Therefore, the development of predictive models for criminal activities can directly support crime prevention and proactive deterrence planning. By analyzing the role of spatiotemporal crime maps in reducing crime in light of artificial intelligence through a critical descriptive approach, which includes analyzing and extrapolating the research literature on artificial intelligence and spatiotemporal crime patterns, The current research concludes that spatio-temporal mapping allows for the prediction of crimes and methods of committing them, as well as the times and places where the risk of crime is highest. Artificial intelligence also provides an opportunity for proactive interventions to deter crime or reduce the chances of it occurring. Furthermore, spatio-temporal crime patterns are linked to specific factors, and analyzing them provides multiple pieces of information to predict what may happen in the future.</span></p>2026-07-26T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2026 Political Sciences and Law Serieshttps://journals.aabu.edu.jo/index.php/law/article/view/1916The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Economic Development “Challenges and Applications”2026-02-17T09:41:17+02:00Ayman Idris Abdulhai Muhammad artificial.intelligence@aabu.edu.jo<p>This research aims to analyze the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on economic development by examining its applications in enhancing productivity, fostering innovation, and transforming key economic sectors such as industry, agriculture, financial services, healthcare, and energy.

It ensures that companies can develop, manufacture, and commercialize products without infringing on existing patents. With the increasing complexity of patent landscapes, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative tool to enhance the FTO process. AI-driven technologies improve the accuracy and efficiency of assessing potential risks, enabling companies to make more informed decisions about product development and market entry.</p> <p> </p> <p>AI systems in FTO processes analyze vast datasets, identify potential overlaps with existing patents, and provide detailed maps of the IP environment. These capabilities are particularly valuable for pharmaceutical companies operating in highly competitive and complex regulatory frameworks. AI technologies enable companies to explore markets strategically, design products that minimize infringement risks, and identify opportunities for innovation in areas with limited patent competition.</p> <p> </p> <p>Another advantage of AI is its ability to monitor changes in the IP landscape in real time, including tracking new patent filings, modifications, and expirations. Predictive capabilities allow businesses to assess the enforceability of patents, aiding decisions related to licensing, challenges to weak patents, or designing around existing claims. These features ensure companies remain proactive in managing their IP risks and maintain a competitive edge.</p> <p>Despite its benefits, the use of AI in FTO analyses is not without challenges. Ensuring data accuracy, addressing ethical considerations, and incorporating human expertise in interpreting patent claims and legal nuances remain essential. While AI provides significant advancements in speed and precision, human oversight is critical for nuanced decision-making and compliance with legal frameworks.</p> <p> </p> <p>The methodology employed in this research will be a hybrid approach, combining an extensive review of AI-driven tools and their applications in FTO with practical case studies from the pharmaceutical sector.</p> <p> </p> <p>This paper will firstly discuss the current IP landscape and challenges in conducting FTO analyses, particularly in the pharmaceutical industry.

AI has brought about<br />significant advancements in these diverse areas.<br />These developments necessitate legal intervention,<br />especially concerning the issuance of administrative<br />decisions based on AI systems, which are now being<br />made entirely automatically, or in the execution of<br />routine administrative tasks. In the administrative<br />sphere, authorities may utilize AI for automated<br />decision-making in various administrative activities,<br />such as granting licenses for industrial or commercial<br />activities, or for carrying out their daily operations,<br />particularly those related to public medical facilities. In both cases, the issue of liability<br />for damages resulting from this use can arise. This research examines the concept of AI,<br />its characteristics, types, and applications in the administrative field, as well as the nature<br />and legal basis of liability arising from damages caused by AI in administrative<br />operations. The research also examines the judiciary's stance on the legality of<br />administrative use of artificial intelligence technologies in automated decision-making,<br />and compensation for damages resulting from such decisions. Finally, the research<br />addresses the central question—given the increasing use of artificial intelligence and<br />growing investments in it—namely, whether the general rules of administrative liability<br />are sufficient to address damages resulting from the use of artificial intelligence<br />technologies, or whether specific rules are needed to address liability for such damages.</p>2026-07-27T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2026 Political Sciences and Law Serieshttps://journals.aabu.edu.jo/index.php/law/article/view/1900The Legal Classification of Artificial Intelligence Personality in Omani and Comparative Legislation and Its Legal Implications2026-02-11T21:28:05+02:00Khalid Abdullah Khamis Alkhamisikhalid.alkhamisi@asu.edu.omMohamed Saif Duwaim Al-Shuailimsdalshuaili1984@gmail.com<p style="margin: 0cm;"><strong><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Sakkal Majalla';">Abstract:</span></strong><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Sakkal Majalla';"><br>The issue of granting legal personality to artificial intelligence within Omani legislation and other legal systems in a comprehensive manner, is one of the emerging topics that requires defining its framework in terms of meaning and concept, in order to understand and comprehend the legal implications resulting from the applications of such technology. This research addresses several main aspects that contribute to analyzing the topic from legal, technical, and social perspectives. The discussion is divided into two sections: the first examines the conceptual framework of artificial intelligence and legal personality, while the second explores the consequences and liabilities arising from defining artificial intelligence, through their study, the researchers aim to present findings that bridge the scientific gaps in this field, followed by recommendations that enrich both the legislative and practical dimensions related to it.</span></p>2026-07-26T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2026 Political Sciences and Law Serieshttps://journals.aabu.edu.jo/index.php/law/article/view/1967Intellectual property violations in the age of artificial intelligence: between digital forgery and legislative challenges2026-02-21T22:30:10+02:00Zuhoor Bazzarzuhoorbazzar@gmail.comIsra Younsisra.youns10@gmail.com<p><span data-contrast="auto"> </span><span data-contrast="auto">This research addresses intellectual property rights violations in the era of artificial intelligence—a premier contemporary legal challenge driven by rapid technological advancement. The author highlights how AI technologies, such as deep learning and content generation, serve as double-edged swords: they foster innovation on one hand, and enable the infringement of creators' and inventors' rights on the other through digital forgery (e.g., Deepfakes), automated imitation, and the unauthorized copying of literary and artistic works, thereby raising unprecedented legal issues.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">The research as well focuses on the legal reality in Palestine, noting that the local legislative framework still suffers from a clear deficiency in addressing these issues. This includes either the absence of a governing law for industrial designs or the weak enforcement capacity of intellectual property legislation against modern digital violations. The researcher indicates that Palestinian laws do not account for the technical specificities of works generated by artificial intelligence, nor do they clearly define legal liability when a machine or intelligent system is the content creator.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">In light of this, the study proposes a set of recommendations aimed at bridging the legislative gap and enhancing legal protection. Key recommendations include amending existing legislation to include AI-generated works within the scope of protection, regulating the use of AI tools in creative fields, and establishing legal standards to determine liability for infringements. Additionally, it calls for enhanced legal cooperation at regional and international levels to combat cross-border digital crimes. In conclusion, the study emphasizes that achieving a balance between encouraging technological innovation and protecting intellectual property rights is a fundamental challenge that requires a comprehensive and integrated legislative response.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>2026-07-26T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2026 Political Sciences and Law Series
