The Current Situation, Problems and Solutions of China's Basic Legal System of Digital Economy under the Background of Global Digital Governance

The digital economy has emerged as a new driving force for China's economic growth. However, while digital globalization injects fresh impetus into China's economy, it also presents a range of challenges, such as data security, digital divide, disorderly competition on digital platforms, and inadequate mechanisms for intellectual property protection. These challenges highlight the insufficiency of China's capacity for effective regulation and systematic governance of the digital economy. To address this, the study utilizes literature review and field research to examine the development of China's foundational legal frameworks for the digital economy. It identifies several issues within the legal system, including insufficient legal authority, an underdeveloped legal framework, lack of coordination between laws, unclear legislative models, and inadequate foundational research on legal concepts. To resolve these issues, this study advocates for a systemic and comprehensive legislative approach in constructing the legal framework for the digital economy. This includes reinforcing the integration of different institutions, emphasizing the synergy between ethics and rule of law, and continually enhancing the foresight, scientific basis, and authority of digital economy legislation. This, in turn, will improve the legal infrastructure of China's digital economy and support its healthy and sustainable development.

当今数字经济逐渐成为了推动中国经济增长的新引擎。然而，数字全球化在为中国经济注入新动能的同时，也给中国带来了数据安全、数字鸿沟、数字平台无序竞争和产权保护机制缺失等一系列问题，凸显了中国对数字经济进行有效监管和系统性治理的能力不足。为此，本研究通过文献和实地调研的研究方法，梳理了中国数字经济基础法律制度的建设情况，并发现了中国数字经济基础法律制度存在着法律权威性不足、法律体系不健全、法律之间的协调性不够、立法模式不明确以及法律概念基础研究不足等问题。为了解决这些问题本研究认为，中国在进行数字经济基础法律制度建构时，应坚持系统、综合的立法思维，强化制度之间的整合，注重伦理与法治的结合研究，不断提升数字经济法律制度的前瞻性、科学性和权威性，从而不断提高中国数字经济的法治化水平，从而支撑数字经济健康、持续发展。
