As the cost of storing, sharing, and analyzing data has decreased, economic activity has become increasingly digital. As digital technologies continue to gain momentum and importance, it has become clear that digitization has features that do not fit well into traditional economic models. Economic Analysis of the Digital Economy explores the economic impact of digitization, with each chapter identifying a promising new area of research. This book brings together leading scholars to explore this emerging area of research.
