The Role of Blockchain in Managing Neuroscientific Evidence and Its Impact on Cognitive Liberty

Abstract: The Role of Blockchain in Managing Neuroscientific Evidence and Its Impact on Cognitive Liberty
The subject of neuroscience is the study of the relationship between the human brain and human behavior. With the recent advancements, Neurosciences study topics are generating different opportunities to help us with increasing possibilities to monitor, influence, and control human brain processes. In this article, we analyzed how this possibility of incorporating neuroscience in legal frameworks is changing into a concrete reality to be able to control socially unwanted behavior. It motivates us to study the relationship between neuroscience and neurolaw with a special focus on blockchain technology’s role in the neurolaw context. With this perspective, we demonstrated the potential role of neuroscientists in Courts and blockchain for neuroscientific evidence. Secondly, we analyzed how this intervention of new neuro-paradigms in public, debates about the structure of Society and the Law. In this article, we then focused on the domains of so-called reductive neurolaw, which comes with an idea of the gradual replacement of traditional sources of law with new emerging neuro-scientific standards. Along with this, we discuss a definition of Cognitive Liberty (a new form of safeguard) able to be collected in a “Declaration of Human Neuro-rights” in fact, cognitive liberty may be employed as a novel conceptual weapon to defend individual human rights from neuro-paradigms that reduce them to nothing. Finally, we discussed how blockchain is revolutionizing cognitive liberty and neurolaw.
