WiSe 17/18: The Digital Economy and State-Market Relations

Jonas Pentzien

Comments

Rapid technological change has revolutionized many aspects of social, economic and political life. Some believe that the digital market environments created in this process hold the potential to cure all of globalization’s discontents. Others see them as the primary drivers behind increasing inequalities. The implications of digital technologies for institutional regimes is at the center of these debates: Are nation states increasingly rendered obsolete by this newly developing global ecosystem? How are existing alliances between governmental and private actors reshaped through the dynamics of modern economies? Taking these questions as a starting point, we systematically examine the nature, extent, and impact of the Digital Economy in the United States. By analyzing the interplay between infrastructure spending, technological innovation, and governmental regulation, we aim at understanding better how State-Market arrangements are altered over time to adapt to changing political and economic realities. Through a critical engagement with the debates surrounding the Sharing Economy, Smart City Development Projects, and the Internet of Things we try to untangle the ambiguity surrounding the potentials and limitations of the growing Digital Economy" close
