Details

This multidisciplinary Research Handbook surveys digital regulation, examining responses to changing digital technologies that are reshaping economies and societies. Expert contributing authors address foundational questions about regulating digital platforms, balancing innovation with risk, and adapting traditional regulatory models to the distinct traits of the digital economy.

Drawing on international case studies, the Research Handbook addresses the complex challenges faced by governments and the debate around the role they should play in guiding digital development for public benefit and safety. Chapters cover key topics such as broadband access, AI oversight, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, satellites, and health data governance. The contributing authors emphasize the need for flexible, context-sensitive, and cooperative governance structures that safeguard privacy, competition, and democratic values in an increasingly interconnected world.

This Research Handbook is a vital resource for students, academics, and researchers in technology regulation and governance, economics, politics, public administration, and sociology. It is also a valuable resource for policymakers, regulators, and practitioners involved in telecommunications and information policy seeking informed strategies for governing rapidly evolving technologies.
