Kerstin Anér, Pioneering Thinker of Data Power – Towards A Critical Reimagining the History of Data Law and Policy

• Questions of data, law, feminism and the environment are not new, and contrary to popular perceptions, were not discovered as a field of critical thought by contemporary scholars. These debates were already taking place in national and international fora in the 1960s and the 1970s. Among the most prolific European figures in those pioneering discussions, stood out the feminist, environmentalist, and critical thinker of computers, data and their relation with power, Kerstin Anér. While mostly forgotten today, Anér's contribution to international and national debates on data law and politics are central also to contemporary debates on data, artificial intelligence and law. In this essay we set out how and why.
