Mise en situation 

The research question should therefore be:  “To what Extent can Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies Enable Digital and Decentralized Forms of Governance Systems That are  Non-Reliant on Centralized State Authority?”  

An answer on whether the technologies can enable such autonomous  forms of governance has to include the examination of all aspects  of modern statehood. Governance systems that are non-reliant on  centralized state authority have to come after all aspects of modern  statehood. It is assumed that these systems cannot be completely autonomous in the current state. Therefore, it should be analyzed “to  what extent” they can be enabled. The term of governance in this  context is deliberately defined broadly. Furthermore, to answer the  question it is not just necessary to investigate how a technology functions. To assess potential impacts it is necessary to analyze whether  the new technological systems can replace central state competences, if  they also offer the same quality of democratic legitimation, and if there  are ways for the state to regulate the technology anyway by taking  advantage of its analogue prerequisites.
