Abstract

Many countries in East and Southeast Asia have become undisputed leaders in innovation in information technology and the digital economy. In doing so, substantial high-tech Asian megacities have become growth points, which serve as experimental testing grounds for technological innovations and offer pilot and special regulatory regimes for the rapid deployment of promising innovations. The transformation of the socio-economic and political life of individual cities and states is, in one way or another, inextricably linked to the development and adoption of atypical regulatory institutions and systems. The technological development of cities has recently been linked in one way or another to the concept of the “smart city.” This definition means the comprehensive implementation of intelligent technologies into the decision-making cycle in an urban environment for monitoring, control, and regulation activities. This paper aims to identify the main features of regulating the development, implementation, and application of innovative city technologies in Asian countries that are leaders in the digital economy. Through the analysis of independent rankings, the People’s Republic of China, Japan, Singapore, and the Republic of Korea are chosen as such countries. These countries are united not only by their overall leadership in the digital economy but also by the presence of cities leading in implementing innovative technologies. The paper uses the methodology of formal-logical analysis and comparative jurisprudence, revealing the essence of the regulatory framework for the development, implementation and application of urban smart technology in the selected countries. A comparative study of the main provisions of regulations aimed at streamlining social relations on the development, implementation, and application of intelligent technologies in cities in the selected countries also allows us to develop proposals for the development of Russian regulation in the application of smart technologies in cities
