special issue theme:
the journal of comparative policy analysis is pleased to announce a call for papers for a special issue focusing on artificial intelligence, data-driven technologies, and comparative public policy.
the rapid development of emerging data-driven technologies, such as artificial intelligence (ai), has had a profound impact on social behaviors, necessitating urgent government regulation, which, in turn, brought significant changes to the field of comparative policy analysis, both in terms of theory and methodology.
practically, the velocity of ai and data-driven technology developments, the complexity of what to regulate, and the question of who regulates and how, all pose significant challenges for ai oversight. theoretically, to design policies and ensure that ai is applied in an ethical, secure, transparent, and human-centric manner across all sectors are often unclear. both policy design, implementation and policy analysis can be facilitated by ai and data-driven technologies, but this requires careful consideration of the aforementioned challenges.
given that ai-related policies have been designed and adopted across various policy fields in numerous countries and regions, it would be beneficial to explore these policy challenges from comparative perspectives. topics relevant to this special issue include, but are not limited to:
special features of ai oversight policies
ai and data-driven technologies in traditional policy design
policy collaboration, co-ordination and coherence in policy design with regarding to ai and data-driven technologies
unexpected and unintended consequences in implementation and dissemination of ai policies
ai and data-driven technologies usage and the quality and efficiency of comparative policy analysis
ethical considerations when using ai technologies in comparative policy analysis
reliability and validity of ai-assisted analysis
