Regulation of Big Data: Perspectives on strategy, policy, law and privacy

Abstract

This article encapsulates selected themes from the Australian Data to Decisions Cooperative Research Centre's Law and Policy program. It is the result of a discussion on the regulation of Big Data, especially focusing on privacy and data protection strategies. It presents four complementary perspectives stemming from governance, law, ethics, and computer science. Big, Linked, and Open Data constitute complex phenomena whose economic and political dimensions require a plurality of instruments to enhance and protect citizens' rights. Some conclusions are offered in the end to foster a more general discussion.
