Description
Good data are essential for democracy. In Democratizing Our Data, Julia Lane argues that America's public data system is broken and needs fixing.
The new economy relies on access to high-quality data, but the US government's data production is getting worse and more expensive. Lane calls for a new framework to democratize data, ensuring people have trustworthy sources of information.
