The LAWPOL research infrastructure provides digital tools that enable the examination of large datasets without requiring a deep understanding of computational methods.
Currently, LAWPOL includes two different tools: KWIC and TNA. They will be integrated into the LAWPOL portal during 2024. Other tools are also under development and will be released later.
Keyword in Context (KWIC)
KWIC enables the examination of the context of a selected concept within parliamentary speech.
