Digital Sovereignty in the Global Data Economy: Rights, Regulation, and Resistance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798260002896)

In the context of digital transformation, issues of sovereignty, governance, and power over data have become central to contemporary policy debates. The global data economy expanding rapidly in scale and influence has reconfigured relationships among states, corporations, and citizens. As AI, Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, and platform-based economic models shape political and economic structures, governments face growing challenges in asserting authority over data flows, safeguarding individual rights, and preserving technological autonomy within an interconnected global environment. Digital sovereignty emerges as a critical concept yet remains contested and multifaceted. For some nations, it represents economic protectionism and technological self-sufficiency, and for others it embodies democratic values, human rights, and resistance to surveillance capitalism. Meanwhile, contemporary data governance frameworks reveal divergent approaches to balancing innovation, security, privacy, and economic development across different regulatory contexts. Digital Sovereignty in the Global Data Economy: Rights, Regulation, and Resistance explores the convergence of digital sovereignty and data governance. It examines diverse perspectives, comparative analyses across governance contexts, and critical examinations of power asymmetries within the global data economy. This book covers topics such as global business, data governance, and geopolitics, and is a useful resource for business owners, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and data scientists.
