The Risk of"Digital Leviathan"and Its Regulation in the Digital Transformation of Education—Based on the Perspective of Risk Society Theory
In the brand-new network landscape of digital interconnection and inter-competition of everything and the new position of social risk governance,the intervention of"Digital Leviathan"in the digital transformation of education and its induced multiple risks such as loss of education value identity,distortion of data and information,and technological regulatory failure have directly aggravated the severity of"Digital Leviathan"risks in the digital transformation of education.From the perspective of the Risk Society Theory,the motivations lie not only in the ambiguous mechanism of weakening the subject of responsibility for the digital transformation of education,ignoring the uncertainty mechanism of the external ecology of the digital transformation of education,and overly disguising the complex mechanism of the application of technology for the digital transformation of education,but also in the unclear endogenous mechanism of the weakness of the regime of digital transformation of education.Therefore,to construct the action framework with multifaceted synergy by clarifying the responsibility of the subjects,to build the security barrier of the"fifth frontier"by optimizing the external ecology,to strengthen the internal support of education transformation by perfecting the technological architecture,and to enhance the institutional confidence of risk management by improving the risk management system are the effective ways to cope with the"Digital Leviathan"of the digital transformation of education.
