Can we negotiate? Trust and the rule of law in the smart city paradigm

Abstract: This article focuses on the smart city as a political place. It analyses how both the technologies and the ideas smart cities are built on, oust trust and the rule of law as two important conditions for the city as a thriving political community. In particular, three challenges to the city as a political place are identified: desubjectivation, invisibility, and a neo-liberal value shift. In order to address these challenges, we introduce the term 'negotiation' as a new guiding principle to the use of smart tec… Show more

“…Coupled with the trend of datafication, in smart cities "people are now subject to much greater levels of intensified scrutiny and modes of surveillance and dataveillance than ever before, with smart city technologies providing deeply personal pictures of individual lives" (Kitchin 2016, p. 31). Several critics have emphasized the risks of smart technologies for privacy, discrimination, and marginalization of certain groups along income and racial lines, due to the fact that crime data reflect longstanding institutional biases (e.g., Harcourt 2007;Monahan 2017;Smith et al 2017;Peeters and Schuilenburg 2018;Keymolen and Voorwinden 2019;Pali and Schuilenburg 2019).…”

“…Nevertheless, the use of smart technologies raises several ethical issues. These include, among others, large-scale surveillance of citizens, the erosion of privacy, lack of transparency and accountability, limited consultation of citizens into how smart technology is designed and implemented, control creep, privatization of public services, and issues around the ownership of data (e.g., Vanolo 2014;Keymolen and Voorwinden 2019;Kitchin 2019b;Sadowski and Bendor 2019). While smart technologies have the potential to deliver significant gains, these technologies are able to create new or exacerbate existing imbalances of power in our cities.…”

“…The supra modern city has become a battleground for various market forces and the socio-political process of placing the icon of consumerism. It causes many urban problems that lead to increased inequality, alienation, and intolerance in public spaces (Keymolen & Voorwinden 2019, Von Schonfeld & Bertolini 2016. In the context of a smart city, the government supervise and control urban public spaces, including the sidewalk.…”
