*Resumen*
As the scale, scope, and pervasiveness of data resources increase, so to do examples
of radical new uses and new risks arising from use of data. As a result, researchers
and practitioners are increasingly interested in understanding the challenges of data
governance. However, much of the published work on data governance is
atheoretical, focusing on general advocacy for the importance of data governance;
rich description of specific cases; or empirically-derived descriptions of data
governance goals. While this literature provides suggestive insights, it is
fundamentally limited as a conceptual basis for research and practice. Drawing
together a conceptualization of governance as n-steps removed shaping of action,
the consequences of the materiality of data, and an assumption of bounded
collective rationality, the Potential Uses Model of Data Governance seeks to provide
a foundational model of data governance. In this model (and the associated
formalism), data governance is described as an efforts to indirectly shape the
outcomes of data use, promoting those that are desirable and hindering those that
are undesirable. Examination of a basic formal model based on the Potential Uses
Model of Data Governance highlights fundamental tensions that exist within in the
simplest contexts and suggests potential avenues for empirical study, practical
analysis, and additional theoretical work.
