“The article's power resides in its forward-looking vision,” the prize committee highlighted. “It doesn't offer simplistic solutions but instead articulates ‘key questions that ought to be central to public law scholarship’ to meaningfully address the persistent accountability challenges posed by digital government.”

Aimed at recognizing the work of scholars in the first seven years of their academic appointment, the CALT Scholarly Paper award is presented to the author of a paper that makes a substantial contribution to legal literature.

Open to all people who teach law in a Canadian university, the Canadian Association of Law Teachers began in 1947 with an informal meeting of law teachers called together by the late 鶹ɫƬ Law professor and dean F.R. Scott. It was formalized as an organization in 1951 and has since met annually. CALT works to promote the interests of Canadian law teachers, contribute to the dissemination of their research, and promote exchanges among teachers of different faculties and regions.

“I’m delighted to see our talented colleague earn such recognition for her leading-edge scholarship,” said Dean Tina Piper. “Professor Raso’s research into the legal dimensions of digital government exemplifies our Faculty’s commitment to addressing society’s most urgent challenges through rigorous scholarship and bold ideas.”
