The networked leviathan :for democratic platforms /Paul Gowder, Northwestern University. - 1 online resource (x, 245 pages) :digital, PDF file(s).

Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 26 Jul 2023).

The nature and problems of platforms -- The enterprise of platform governance development -- The whole industry is bad : radically remake it by force -- The problem of platform self-control -- Actually existing platform self-constraint... up to a point : the meta oversight board -- Platform democracy now! -- Conclusion : how liberal-democratic governments can act now.

Open Access.

Governments and consumers expect internet platform companies to regulate their users to prevent fraud, stop misinformation, and avoid violence. Yet, so far, they've failed to do so. The inability of platforms like Facebook, Google, and Amazon to govern their users has led to stolen elections, refused vaccines, counterfeit N95s in a pandemic, and even genocide. Such failures stem from these companies' inability to manage the complexity of their userbases, products, and their own incentives under the eyes of internal and external constituencies. The Networked Leviathan argues that countries should adapt the institutional tools developed in political science for platform governance to democratize major platforms. Democratic institutions allow knowledgeable actors to freely share and apply their understanding of the problems they face while leaders more readily recruit third parties to help manage their decision-making capacity.
