"This book addresses global digital data governance from polycentric perspectives. Theories of (global) digital data governance remain little consolidated, with monodisciplinary accounts and different approaches focusing on actors, processes and norms. To meet these limitations, this volume harnesses an interdisciplinary and transscalar approach to understanding digital data governance. Polycentrism, this book argues, provides a set of lenses that tie together the variety of actors, issues, and processes intertwined in digital data governance at subnational, national, regional, and global levels. Two major insights result. First, substantively, polycentrism reveals many power centers and connections in digital data governance. Second, polycentric perspectives bridge disciplinary divides in the analysis of digital data governance that hold varying assumptions of what governance involves. Polycentric perspectives help draw together a growing range of insights from different disciplines about the complexities of digital data governance: how it occurs, how it might occur differently, and how it should occur. Written by an international and interdisciplinary team, this book will be of interest to students and scholars in the field of Development Studies, Political Science, International Relations, Global Studies, Science and Technology Studies, Sociology, and Media and Communication Studies"-- Provided by publisher.
