The EU: A normative power in global cyber-governance?

Since coming into force in 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has become a model for personal data regulation adopted by countries around the world, and establishing the EU as a key actor in the world of digital policy.

Four years later, the EU is now proposing new legislation to regulate digital markets and services. It aims at creating a level-playing field as well as consolidating core infrastructure within the Union to reduce vulnerabilities, all serving the eventual goal of “digital sovereignty”. At the same time, other powerful actors such as China, the US, and, more recently Russia, are themselves exhibiting digital protectionism, albeit to varying extents.

In this podcast, Adam Teufel captures voices from the 2022 CPDP conference as he explores perspectives of international cyber-governance, and elucidates the inherent paradox of a world-wide-web regulated by geographically demarcated institutions.
