Jakub Rzymowski

Jakub Rzymowski is a Lecturer at the Department of European Economic Law within the Faculty of Law and Administration at the University of Lodz. His academic profile combines practical legal expertise with profound theoretical contributions to legal philosophy.

Dr. Rzymowski specializes in the law of new technologies, with particular focus on personal data protection and electronic signatures. His work extends to European economic law (rather than institutional aspects), copyright law, medical documentation regulations, and archival law. His theoretical framework, 'legal conceptualism as a general theory of law,' posits that law fundamentally consists of a system of rights, with rights themselves being characteristics of people.

• Developed 'legal conceptualism' explaining law's ontological status
• Created 'stage semantic analysis' methodology for legal interpretation
• Current research focuses on personal data protection monographs
• Explores the intersection of law and computer science
• Investigates the ontology of rights and legal validity

His recent publications reflect a systematic approach to contemporary legal challenges, particularly in digital domains. Dr. Rzymowski's conceptualist perspective has generated discussion among legal philosophers, particularly among Kantians and Kelsenians who have offered critical perspectives on his work.

He maintains that true law must be good and just, arguing that when law fails these standards, it becomes merely 'lawlessness wearing the guise of law.' This philosophical stance informs both his teaching and scholarly work. His students frequently appreciate his engaging teaching style, noting that his lectures are interesting and practically useful.
