Regulating the data economy: A United States-European Union comparison
Pascal König is a researcher at TU Kaiserslautern. His research deals with the consequences of digital technology for democratic politics and governance. He is particularly interested in regulatory action as a response to increasingly widespread forms of data-based value creation. His research also studies how socio-technical developments challenge existing institutions and policies and lead to changes in the conflict space of party competition. König received his Ph.D. in political science from the University of Freiburg in 2016.
At the Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies (CES), König will investigate the regulation of data-based value creation in the United States and the European Union. The aim of the project is to shed light on the co-evolution of policy ideas in these two settings and examine how they shape the development of an emerging data economy.
