New article

Dr. Héctor Simón and Dr. Rosa M. Garcia recently published the article “The digital tokenization of property rights. A comparative perspective” in the Computer Law and Security Review, a journal indexed in quartile 1 in Law. The purpose of this research is to detect the challenges of the application of blockchain technology and tokenization from a private law perspective and to analyze the legal viability of creating usufructs with this technology.

This article is based on the research undertaken in the projects “Collaborative Housing” (2018-20; DER2017-84726-C3-1-P) and the “Tokenization of  rights in rem in the regulation of the fifth book of the Civil Code of Catalonia” ( CEJFE JUS / 113/2018).
