Title Redefining the Smart City within the European Digital Society
Year 2022
Published Romanian Journal Of European Affairs, 22, 1
Abstract Based on the understanding that the EU is building a value-based digital society, this research aims to recapture the narrative of the smart city and to introduce the latter as an actor in EU digital policy. It starts from the acknowledgement that smart cities are reduced to mere business-led strategies and lack direct grassroots engagement that would bring value to the urban landscape. Then, it deconstructs the main pillars of the digital society as proposed by the current Commission and searches for areas of congruence between smart cities and the model for the digital society. To illustrate this congruence, the article analyses policy documents at the European and local level and features a case study of Darmstadt, designated Germany's Digital City in 2019.
