Abstract

A holistic and more integrated legal approach to personal data that takes account of economics, social sciences and privacy research constitutes an aspirational challenge. It requires—at the outset—reconsidering the fundamentals on which legal protection of personal data is based. Consequently, this article analyses important milestones in the history of data protection law before concluding with some thoughts on the most radical reformist idea, the introduction of a right to one’s data.
