In other words, the evolution of a digital policy is characterized by shifts in institutions.…”

The problem, however, is the uncertainty regarding the mechanisms resulting from institutional shifts and the necessary conditions for a successful digital policy (see Cordella & Tempini, 2015; Di Giulio & Vecchi, 2022; Nograšek & Vintar, 2014).…”
