Description
The advent of the digital revolution brought about a wave of optimism and raised the
hopes of societies for better governance and more freedoms, hopes that today seem
dashed, at least partly. There is a widespread belief that new and emerging information
and communication technologies (ICTs) pose threats to the rights of individuals and
groups, and give rise to complex global governance questions. A growing amount of lit-
erature shows how they present challenges for data privacy, discrimination, and inequality,
as well as for economic relationships, human rights and freedoms more generally. This introductory article seeks to set the background and context of the new and emerging technologies, particularly cyber-
space, Big Data, AI and global governance.
