Digital platforms have become an essential component of the state bureaucratic infrastructure, a trend that has been described as “platformization of the state”.
This seminar explores the implications of this development for criminal justice and asks:
- When platforms become integrated into state functions, are they also changing the organizational logic of the state, for example, the nature of policing?
- Is platformization synonymous with privatization of state infrastructures, and are there alternatives?
