The political economy of the digital age: A literature review on the interaction between citizens, enterprises, and the state
ABSTRACT: Information plays an essential role in state governance. Digital technologies have transformed the process of collecting, utilising and disseminating information in the digital age, leading to changes in state governance and the content of political economy. This paper tries to comprehensively summarise the impact of digital technologies on state governance, with a focus on three questions: First, how does social media influence the relationship between the state and citizens? Second, how do platform companies influence the relationship between the state and businesses? Third, how does the digital government influence the relationship between the state and society? Generally, the existing literature reaches consensus on the following three points: First, although digital technologies enhance citizens’ ability to supervise the government, they overall benefit the government by consolidating its power. Second, platform companies have an information advantage that easily places them in a monopolistic position, therefore regulation should be strengthened in order to protect citizens’ privacy, promote market competition, and safeguard national security. Third, digital technologies are widely adopted in government departments, but that has also raised concerns among scholars about algorithmic discrimination and the possibility that the government may turn into a digital leviathan. In the concluding section, we put forward four suggestions for the future research.
《數(shù)字時(shí)代的政治經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)：一個(gè)關(guān)于公民、企業(yè)和國(guó)家互動(dòng)的文獻(xiàn)綜述》
摘要：信息在國(guó)家治理中起著至關(guān)重要的作用。數(shù)字技術(shù)改變了數(shù)字時(shí)代收集、利用和傳播信息的過程，導(dǎo)致了國(guó)家治理和政治經(jīng)濟(jì)內(nèi)容的變化。本文試圖全面總結(jié)數(shù)字技術(shù)對(duì)國(guó)家治理的影響，重點(diǎn)關(guān)注三個(gè)問題：第一，社交媒體如何影響國(guó)家與公民之間的關(guān)系？其次，平臺(tái)公司如何影響國(guó)家與企業(yè)之間的關(guān)系？第三，數(shù)字政府如何影響國(guó)家與社會(huì)的關(guān)系？總體而言，現(xiàn)有文獻(xiàn)在以下三點(diǎn)上達(dá)成了共識(shí)：第一，盡管數(shù)字技術(shù)提高了公民監(jiān)督政府的能力，但它們通過鞏固政府權(quán)力，使政府整體受益。其次，平臺(tái)公司具有信息優(yōu)勢(shì)，容易處于壟斷地位，因此應(yīng)加強(qiáng)監(jiān)管，以保護(hù)公民隱私，促進(jìn)市場(chǎng)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)，維護(hù)國(guó)家安全。第三，數(shù)字技術(shù)在政府部門被廣泛采用，但這也引起了學(xué)者們對(duì)算法歧視的擔(dān)憂，以及政府可能變成數(shù)字利維坦的可能性。在結(jié)論部分，我們對(duì)未來的研究提出了四點(diǎn)建議。
