Abstract:As a strategic emerging resource in the digital economy era, the property rights attributes of data and their allocation logic have increasingly become a research focus in academia. Bibliometric methods were employed to present a panoramic view of journal distributions, core authors, and research hotspots in the field of data property rights. Starting with the dynamic relationship between “ data ” and “information”, the concept of data and its unique attributes were clarified. Progress in research on types and boundaries of data property rights was outlined, summarizing perspectives on new property models, existing property models, and non-property models. The value demands of different data stakeholders were analyzed, leading to four schemes of data ownership including data origin, data production, interest balance, and rights suspension. Finally, prospects for research on data property rights from a managerial and economic perspective are proposed, aiming to provide valuable references for constructing and improving the data property rights system in China.
