Derecho a la identidad: identidad digital e identificación electrónica en el reglamento (UE) eIDAS2

Abstract

The paper examines the legal construction of the right to identity in a context of accelerated technological transformation and, in particular, the impact of the eIDAS 2 Regulation on the configuration of digital identity and electronic identification in the European Union. It takes as its starting point the acknowledgement that digitalization shifts identity from a strictly personalist conception towards an infrastructural understanding, in which electronic identification becomes a precondition for social, economic and legal participation in digital contexts.
