全球数字治理和平台监管新趋势——政府、公司和公众利益的博弈与平衡

New Trends of Global Digital Governance and Platform Supervision:Game and Balance Between Government,Company and Public Interests

本文梳理近年来全球数字治理的主要趋势,详析澳大利亚《新闻媒体和数字平台强制性议价规则》和欧盟《数字服务法案》草案的数字平台监管案例,尤其是大型数字平台的内容审核机制,对制度和监管层面进行初步的探讨。对于未来的数字治理和平台监管,本文提出四条政策建议:1.数字治理和平台监管需要数字立法、政策和制度创新:政府和议会的主导地位不可替代;2.数字生态系统的共同监管新模式:政府监管应同平台自我监管相结合,并提倡多利益相关方的参与和协作;3.数字平台治理和内容审核机制应优先考虑公共利益、用户权利以及支持数字时代的新闻媒体发展;4.未来数字治理和平台监管需要更多跨国治理和国际数字合作。

Reviewing recent trends in global digital governance,this article gives an in-depth analysis of Australia’s newly passed bill“News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code”and EU’s new proposal on“Digital Service Act”(DSA)with an emphasis on the particular issue of content moderation.Four policy recommendations for future digital governance are given:1.Governments and parliaments should play a central role in building strong laws,regulations and rules for regulating platforms;2.New model of joint digital governance combining the governmental regulation with platforms’self regulation and advocating multi-stakeholder participation;3.The public interest,users’rights and the sustainability of journalism in digital age should be prioritized in putting in place new platform regulation and content moderation measures;4.More cross-border governance and international digital cooperation will be needed for future platform regulation.
