数字化创新与数字化转型:技术赋能城市治理的路径

Digital Innovation and Transformation:Pathways for Technology-Enabled Urban Governance

数字技术为应对城市治理问题提供了新思路新工具。本文从制度的视角构建数字化创新和数字化转型的分析框架,分析数字技术赋能城市治理的路径。研究发现,数字技术赋能城市治理是数字化创新与数字化转型两个相互依存的过程:数字化创新表达了以人民为中心的理念和治理结构,并尝试构建数字制度模块和基础设施,建立新的社会秩序;数字化创新的叠加组合产生了综合效应,推动了城市治理理念、运作过程、治理结构以及治理规则等的变革,推动城市的数字化转型。然而,数字化创新的合法性和平台治理的有效性依然面临新的挑战,为促进城市繁荣,应该坚持科技创新与人文关怀的深度融合,激活城市的活力,增强城市韧性。

Digital technology presents novel concepts and tools for addressing urban governance challenges.Grounded in the framework of digital innovation and digital transformation,viewed through the lens of institutional change,this paper delves into the intrinsic rationale behind using digital technology to empower urban governance.The findings indicate that digital innovation and digital transformation are intertwined processes within the framework of digitally-driven urban governance.Digital innovation reflects a people-centric approach and a restructuring of governance systems,aiming to construct digital modules and infrastructure to establish a novel social order.The cumulative effect of overlapping digital innovations has brought about a comprehensive impact,fostering changes in the mindset,operations,governance structures,and rules governing urban governance,thereby promoting the digital transformation of cities.Nevertheless,the legality of digital innovation and the effectiveness of platform governance continue to encounter fresh challenges.To foster urban prosperity,it is imperative to adhere to the profound integration of technological innovation and humanistic compassion to invigorate the city’s dynamism and enhance its resilience.
