Project Description

This project seeks to provide a comprehensive account of the rapid shift towards digital ecosystems in Asian economies via the affordances of transaction platforms, the significance of cultural diversity and concrete examples of everyday norms and practices. Empirical research of key platforms, ethnographies of diverse user cohorts across the region and large scale quantitative analysis of market and user data are designed to provide a regional knowledge base for understanding the emerging forms of digital transactions in Asia. In addressing the implications for Australia, multilateral collaboration and comparison will underpin robust policy recommendations on the digital economy and its trans-territorial implications.
