Global Data Strategies

Mehr zum Buch

The paramount role of data as a resource and innovation driver in modern digital societies is increasingly recognized by policymakers. States, supranational institutions, and international organizations, such as the OECD, are engaged in a global competition to develop risk-sensitive data governance approaches that promote societal innovation. This competition manifests through Global Data Strategies, which focus on global standard-setting and appropriate legal frameworks, shaping political discussions and influencing data usage and its societal value. Notably, the legislative initiatives under the EU Data Strategy are poised to become global benchmarks. This handbook offers concise insights into global developments in data policy, presenting comparative and interdisciplinary perspectives on data strategies and their economic and social effects. It targets academics, politicians, policymakers, members of national and supranational authorities, international institutions, attorneys, and business association lawyers.
