This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Thomas Streinz is a German legal scholar specialized in data and technology law. Since January 2025,[1] he is a Joint Chair in Law with interests in Regulatory Theory and Regulatory Institutions at the Law Department and the Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies at the European University Institute, one of Europe's leading postgraduate institutions.[2] He is also a Senior Fellow at Guarini Global Law & Tech, New York University.[3]
Career
[edit]Thomas Streinz started his legal education in Germany, completing the two Staatsexamen after studies at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich.[4] He then moved to the United States, obtaining an LLM at New York University, where he was a Fellow at the Institute for International Law and Justice[4] since 2016 and an adjunct professor of law since 2018.[5] Streinz stayed in New York until September 2024, when he was appointed part-time professor at the European University Institute,[6] an appointment that was converted into a full-time chair at the beginning of 2025.[1]
Streinz was a consultant for the World Bank's World Development Report 2021, "Data for Better Lives".[7] In the same year, he was one of the drafters of the Manifesto In Defense of Democracy and the Rule of Law in the Age of “Artificial Intelligence”[8] put together by the multi-stakeholder Athens Roundtable on AI and the Future of Law.[9]
Academic contribution
[edit]Streinz's research deals with the regulation of digital technologies and the relationships between data, infrastructure, and technology regulation.[1] Working often in collaboration with other scholars, he has worked on theoretical and empirical aspects of those phenomena.
Among legal scholars, Streinz is credited with advancing the argument for considering data law (encompassing the legal frameworks for personal data and non-personal data) as a field of European Union law.[10] The conceptualization of data infrastructures coined by Streinz and Angelina Fischer is used as a basis for critical work on the topic.[11][12] With Matthew S Erie, he coined the term "Beijing Effect" to refer to the soft power dynamics that contribute to the international diffusion of Chinese policies.[13][14]
Streinz was also one of the editors of Artificial Intelligence and International Economic Law: Disruption, Regulation, and Reconfiguration, a book published in 2021 that scholarly reviewers described as a cutting-edge panorama of the regulatory challenges AI poses to the various aspects of International economic law.[15][16][17]
In 2023, Streinz was recognized by the Journal of International Economic Law for excellence in reviewing.[18]
Streinz's research on open-source software as digital infrastructure was funded by a Ford Foundation grant on Critical Digital Infrastructure Research.[19]
