摘要

与世界上许多其他国家不同,尽管美国受到俄罗斯干预2016年大选、与2020年大选有关的国内虚假信息、,剑桥分析公司(Cambridge Analytica)的数据泄露丑闻以及伴随冠状病毒大流行而来的错误信息“信息传播”。然而,在过去的四年里,国会就平台治理的各个方面举行了多次听证会,并提出了大量法案来解决同样广泛的平台治理问题。在过去的五年里,政府潜在行动的指标如此之多,但实际的政策干预却如此之少,平台治理似乎是象征性行动优先于实质性行动的决策环境的一个典型例子。本文通过分析美国最近的平台治理发展来说明这一动态。

The symbolic uses of platforms: The politics of platform governance in the United States
Unlike many other countries around the world, the United States has taken relatively little substantive action in the realm of platform governance, despite the United States being directly impacted by occurrences such as Russian interference in the 2016 election, domestic disinformation related to the 2020 election, the Cambridge Analytica data breach scandal and the ‘infodemic’ of misinformation that has accompanied the Coronavirus pandemic. Yet the past four years have involved numerous Congressional hearings on various aspects of platform governance and a multitude of bills have been introduced addressing a similarly wide range of platform governance issues. With so many indicators of potential government action over the past half-decade, but so few actual policy interventions, platform governance appears to be a prime example of a policy-making context in which symbolic actions are taking precedence over substantive actions. This article illustrates this dynamic through an analysis of recent platform governance developments in the United States.
