Abstract
Emerging trends associated with Next Generation Robots point to the day when robots will enter human society in large numbers, however the co-exist scenario between human and robots is not necessarily promising. The success of the coming Human-Robot Co-Existence Society will depend a great deal on how well robotists, manufacturers, and legislators deal with Robot Sociability Problems. The author will address these issues from a legal perspective, and argue in favor of organizing a Legislative Consortium for Social Robotics as an international interdisciplinary platform for purposes of analyzing robot sociability issues and establishing core values for domestic legislators to abide by.
