The Composition of Data Capital

Chunlei Tang ()

Chapter Chapter 4 in Data Capital, 2021, pp 109-141 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The data is simple and yet complex. While just consisting of two components: memories and time, data represents not only everything that exists in realistic nature but something unknown. As natural resources cannot be calculated to natural capital, data resources in data nature, considered as whatever safe “new oil” or dangerous “new nuclear power,” are not equivalent to data capital. By annotating two components of the data, this chapter suggests only taking data capital to be a factor of data production.
