@incollection{2021:pohle:digital_so, title = {Digital Sovereignty}, year = {2021}, note = {Over the last decade, digital sovereignty has become a central element in policy discourses on digital issues. Although it has become popular in both centralised/authoritarian and democratic countries alike, the concept remains highly contested. After investigating the challenges to sovereignty apparently posed by the digital transformation, this essay retraces how sovereignty has re-emerged as a key category with regard to the digital. By systematising the various normative claims to digital sovereignty, it then goes on to show how, today, the concept is understood more as a discursive practice in politics and policy than as a legal or organisational concept.}, booktitle = {Practicing Sovereignty}, pages = {47--68}, edition = {1}, author = {Pohle, Julia and Thiel, Thorsten}, publisher = {transcript}, address = {Bielefeld}, series = {Design}, volume = {54} }
