Algorithmic Governance and Consumer Sovereignty

Bys: A Saravanan and M P Sharath Kumar

Algorithmic Governance and Consumer Sovereignty investigates how digital platforms act as Algorithmic Architects, utilizing predictive analytics and choice architecture to shape consumer behavior. While these innovations enhance efficiency, they introduce critical concerns regarding the erosion of individual autonomy through "dark patterns," algorithmic bias, and the formation of filter bubbles. By integrating behavioral finance and welfare economics, this volume analyzes themes like the digital divide, gig economy labor dynamics, and data surveillance ethics. Ultimately, it offers a comprehensive framework for protecting economic self-determination and promoting transparent governance in an increasingly automated global marketplace.
