❓ Key #ResearchQuestions addressed:

(i) How democratic are “decentralized” #Web3 governance systems in practice?

(ii) Under which institutional conditions can technological #decentralization become socially inclusive?

My article “The #PoliticalEconomy of #Web3 Platformization: Innovation Systems, Reaching the Moon, Governing the Ghetto” has been accepted in the journal #Digital
