ICT policy as a governance domain: the case of Greece and the European Commission

chapter
posted on 2023-06-08, 11:44 authored by Ioanna Chini
This chapter explores ICT policy as a domain that emerges out of the interplay of national and supra-national efforts. Against this backdrop, the chapter investigates the case study of Greek ICT policy, under the important influences of the European Commission. Foucault's concept of governmentality is constructively used as a theoretical lens to inform the analysis of the empirical data. I argue that ICT policy in Greece has been constituted as a governable domain. An array of techniques which embody the rationale of the Commission's outlook of ICT policy is traditionally viewed as the product of rational deliberation of a country.
