 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I want to express uncommon much obliged and appreciation to my educator Mr.shashank

shekhar who gave me chance to finalize this research subject.

This project helped me pick up a major viewpoint about the Project Topic. All through the
exploration period, I have been guided by my educator at whatever point I confronted any
obstacles or was in a state of daze not having the capacity to resolve the intricacies of the
subject.

I want to thank my University, Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia National Law University, Lucknow,
for giving me the opportunity to be a part of a novel exploration turned educational program
which without a doubt helps the comprehension of the subject.

I likewise want to thank my guardians, guides and well-wishers who have been a consistent
underpin and have sufficient energy and again looked into my work and have given
their experiences on the matter.

 ABSTRACT

In this research paper an effort has been made to study the relationship between law science
and technology in the changing times . Also a deep analysis has been done of the comparison
between the old law relating to technology and the new laws.
INTRODUCTION

Men have risen above the animal level, very largely by means "technics", the use of tools and
implements for better procuring the mate means of life. Similarly, when they have achieved a
reasonably perfect lei system, they have risen on the intellectual plane. A legal system is
intended represent a synthesis of conflicting interests. Knowledge of the material world; its
purest form is science, and when put to practical use, it becomes technology. Wisdom, at the
peak of its excellence. is the foundation of the ideal political system, and, when utilised to
regulate human relationships, becomes law Herbert Spencer defined Science as organised
knowledge. Law could be described as the wisdom of organised society given expression in
binding rule by the State. "Law is a form of order, and good law must necessarily mean good
order", Aristotle‟s saying 1 possesses as much validity today as when he wrote

Law plays an essential part in the regulation of science and technology and concerning the
ethical consequences of scientific research along with modern technologies. This field of law,
science, and technology attempts to study systematically the diverse ways in which law
interacts with science and technology. It has been defined as “the discipline that deals with how
our legal system can and must adjust to accommodate the problems created by the ever more
urgent and ubiquitous impact of technology on society.”
Law and science have a complicated relationship. Science is the systematic approach that builds
and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the
universe. Law, on the other hand, refers to the system of rules which have been laid down by
the social institutions to regulate the actions of members and it may enforce such behaviour by
the imposition of penalties. However, with the growth of scientific and technological advances,
law, and science, the two disciplines became interdependent on each other. The legislature of
various nations has laid down numerous laws to manage the impacts of science and technology
on society. For example, in the era of the internet, the legislature has laid down laws and
provisions which deal with cybercrimes. Law seeks to curb the impacts of science and
technology which revolve around aspects such as risks, benefits, and ethical implications.

The judicial system also seeks to provide remedies to the aggrieved party that has been wronged
due to the harmful implications of scientific and technological developments. Science on the
flip side has aided the legal system with modern technologies such as polygraph tests, collection
of evidence in a scientific manner, electronic recordings which can be used as evidence before
the court, etc. Science also helps in the court proceedings with the admission of evidence,
autopsy reports, etc. Therefore science and law are codependent on each other despite being two
different disciplines in modern society with the advances in science and technology.
