Excellent- More about Regulating Platforms
The concept of cyberspace as a borderless world has given way to concerns about information monopolies, hateful online content, and the impact on media content creators and creative industries. This study argues that governance is an inherent feature of digital platforms and that the challenge is to develop the best frameworks for balancing external regulatory oversight with the internal governance practices of platform companies. The intersection of media policy, information policy, and economic policy is an important element of policy frameworks, as national authorities seek to engage with the power of global digital platforms.

Once upon a time, we imagined cyberspace as a vast, borderless realm. However, as the internet has evolved, with a handful of tech giants controlling the global digital economy, concerns about information monopolies, hateful online content, and its effects on media content creators and creative industries have grown more pronounced. As a result, governments, politicians, and civil society are actively debating the regulation of digital platforms.
In this thought-provoking exploration, Terry Flew delves into the critical issues surrounding platform regulation. He begins by asserting that governance is an inherent aspect of digital platforms, emphasizing the need to establish the most effective frameworks for balancing external regulatory oversight with the internal governance practices of platform companies. The interplay between media policy, information policy, and economic policy plays a pivotal role in shaping policy frameworks, as national authorities increasingly seek to engage with the power of global digital platforms.
Regulating Platforms is a comprehensive and accessible textbook, ideal for students and scholars of media and communication. It offers a comprehensive analysis of the regulatory challenges and opportunities in the digital age, providing valuable insights into the complex dynamics of platform governance.
