Social Credit (eBook, PDF)

The Warring States of China's Emerging Data Empire

Beschreibung

China's Social Credit System has fundamentally re-shaped global notions of surveillance, making it into European Union legislation and hundreds of media headlines. Drawing on a rich body of empirical evidence, this book offers one of the first comprehensive assessments of this infamous system, from its fragmented implementation to its implications for both human rights and the market order. Surprisingly, it illustrates even China's government is confused about this messy initiative. Separating fact from fiction, Social Credit is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in technology, governance, and surveillance in China and beyond.

"The strongest and most notable element of this study is its perseverant empirical legwork. ... Consequently, it is an important reference guide not only for scholars and students studying China, but also for policymakers who want to learn more about the contemporary methods of social and economic governance in China." (I lkay Ata Yildiz, China Information, Vol. 38 (2), July, 2024)

"The book's fresh and engaging style, balancing personal notes with in-depth policy analysis, renders it an enjoyable read." (Marianne von Blomberg, The China Quarterly, November 6, 2023)
