Digital Technology and Communication Policy in Korea: From Infrastructure to Artificial Intelligence explores the overlap of politics, policy, and digital development in Korea. Despite attention to digital development and its socio-economic effects across the nation, more research must be devoted to studying how Korean communication policymakers and authorities have coped with innovative technologies and a rapidly changing communication landscape. Chang Yong Son argues that communications policymakers must balance regulatory safety and security commitments against the promotion of innovation and growth in the communication market. Scholars of communication, media studies, technology studies, and Asian studies will find this book of particular interest.
