Abstract

Seventh Annual Detlev F. Vagts Roundtable on Transnational Law: Transnational Regulation of the Platform Economy

The global reach, power, and scale of technology companies has attracted the attention of regulators and scholars alike. To date, governance of this digital world has proceeded in a fragmented fashion across and between jurisdictions. Underlying this fragmentation are different conceptions of what is, and should be, the relationship between regulators, companies, and users of the data-driven digital ecosystem that now permeates the globe. This panel considers Salomé Viljoen‘s working paper, From Data Privacy to Data Governance: Social claims to social data, in the context of a broader conversation about competing conceptions of governance, and their implications for transnational regulation of our digital world.

Convener: Rebecca Hamilton, American University Washington College of Law
