Digital technologies have the potential to bolster democracy and citizen engagement but they can also be utilised by states to limit individual freedoms. With the Covid-19 pandemic fueling debates on the appropriate level of control, different models of digital governance are taking shape around the world. Join us for this keynote lecture with Professor Alexander Stubb, who will explore the implications of the digital transformation for the power struggle between China, the US and the EU.
This event will be chaired by Dr Michael Spence AC, UCL President & Provost.
