论文摘要
本文对有关数据的经济学文献进行了系统的批判性审查，作为一种经济利益，并为数据治理汲取了教训。我们得出的结论是，将数据集中在治理努力中的经济利益之后才能导致更多的数据生产，并且不能实现其他社会目标，与文献和政策中经常声称的相反。数据治理通常是一种红鲱鱼，会分散其他数字问题的注意力。数字社会的治理不能仅仅依靠以数据为中心的经济模型。我们审查有关数据共享的文献以及基本的经验和政治主张。虽然Commons的思维对于在生态学方面构成数字问题很有用，但它具有重要的局限性。我们提出了一种政治生态学方法来管理数字社会，这是由关于治理问题的生态思考以及对制定问题并绘制其生态构成的政治性质的意识的定义。
This paper provides a systematic and critical review of the economics literature on data as an economic good and draws lessons for data governance. We conclude that focusing on data as an economic good in governance efforts is hardwired to only result in more data production and cannot deliver other societal goals contrary to what is often claimed in the literature and policy. Data governance is often a red herring which distracts from other digital problems. The governance of digital society cannot rely exclusively on data-centric economic models. We review the literatures and the underlying empirical and political claims concerning data commons. While commons thinking is useful to frame digital problems in terms of ecologies, it has important limitations. We propose a political-ecological approach to governing the digital society, defined by ecological thinking about governance problems and the awareness of the political nature of framing the problems and mapping their ecological makeup.
