摘要: 人口老龄化与数字信息化时代的交融发展加剧了老年群体在融入数字生活过程中面临的挑战,为此构建老年数字鸿沟治理体系刻不容缓。基于数字鸿沟和知沟理论视角构建老年数字鸿沟治理的分析框架,具体解析数字接入沟、使用沟、知识沟的具体表现、形成根源及其可能引发的不良后果。在此基础上,明确老年数字鸿沟治理应坚持以人为本和技术效率与社会效益相结合的基本原则,以参与式治理、包容性治理、全方位治理、可持续治理为主要理念,将数字鸿沟治理的主要目标设立为普遍消除信息技术门槛、实现全体老年人公平发展、老年人数字化社会融合程度全面提升。此外,进一步阐述了老年数字鸿沟治理思路和战略构想,主要包括顶层制度建设、数字基础接入设施建设、线上与线下适老化建设、信息能力与素养建设和年龄友好环境建设等。

Abstract: The population ageing combined with the development of digital information makes it more difficult for older people to integrate into the digital life. In this context, it is urgent to build a system to govern the digital divide faced by older adults. An analysis framework was constructed for the governance of the digital gap faced by older adults from the theoretical perspective of the digital gap and knowledge gap. The specific manifestations, root causes, and possible adverse consequences of digital access gap, usage gap, and knowledge gap were analyzed one by one. It was made clear that the governance of the digital divide faced by older adults should be peopleoriented, focusing on both technical efficiency and social benefits. The major concepts should include participatory governance, inclusive governance, allround governance, and sustainable governance. The primary objective is to generally eliminate the digital information threshold, make all older adults enjoy fair development, and comprehensively help them integrate into the digital society. Approaches and strategic ideas for the governance of the digital divide faced by older adults are also further elaborated.
