Tecnología y desigualdad: la gobernanza tecnológica como nuevo paradigma de la seguridad internacional

Abstract

In this paper we examine the impact that the introduction of digital technologies and artificial intelligence is having on equality and discrimination. The analysis of the existing global governance architecture and proposals for reshaping it shows that there are many aspects that are not yet sufficiently developed. This poses a risk of exacerbating inequalities and perpetuating discrimination. In this context, regulating the activities of multinational companies to anticipate and mitigate the human negative impacts they pose, and to make them accountable for potential damage is essential. It is also necessary to adopt international agreements that apply generally to technologies that, by their very nature, have the potential to jeopardize international peace and security. This process should be rooted in the objective of providing equal opportunities to citizens, the protection of shared values among States, and ultimately, the common good of mankind.
