Table 1 Conceptual clarifications
From: Data governance must consider the interests of the global community
Concept | Description |
|---|---|
Data justice | The fair allocation of burdens and benefits of data sharing, and the fair representation and treatment of people because of their data. |
Data solidarity | The collective commitment to equitably distribute the benefits and burdens associated with data initiatives in a population, which promotes a sense of togetherness, mutual care and the duty to do our share for the common good. |
Data nationalism | Data governance prioritizes the interests of the nation-state, in which the obligations of justice, solidarity and cooperation are primarily circumscribed. |
Data regionalism | Data governance prioritizes the interests of a supranational entity or region of the world. |
Data cosmopolitanism | Data governance considers the interests of the global community. Justice, solidarity, and cooperation is not limited to any country or region but extends to the entire world. |
