                               EDITORIAL NOTE


   Dear  Readers,
   This  special issue examines  the evolving relationship between  human   rights and
artificial intelligence, motived by the roundtable Human  Rights and Al  held at the
Faculty of Law,  University of Nis, on 10th October 2025, within the framework  of the
Jean  Monnet   Project Digital  transformation and  human   rights: EU   perspective
(DIGIRIGHTS). The issue comprises the contributions from some of the roundtable
participants as well as other scholars who expressed interest in addressing this subject
matter. The papers examine the transition from traditional ex post human rights protections
to proactive design-based approaches, and  consider the implications of Al systems on
privacy, surveillance, education, property, and judicial-decision making.
   Collectively, these articles provide insights how legal frameworks may adapt to ensure
the alignment  of technological innovation with  human  dignity, the rule of law, and
democratic  values. Addressing   both  conceptual  and  practical concerns, this issue
contributes to scholarly and policy debates on safeguarding human rights in the digital age.
   We   hope  that this issue will provide significant reference material for scholars,
practitioners, and policymakers, and foster ongoing research, dialogue, and critical analysis.


                                                    Editor-in-Chief,
                                                    Prof. Maja Nastid, LL.D.
