Data has become a strategic asset for societal prosperity and economic competitiveness. There has long been an academic consensus that the value of data unfolds during its use. Consequently, many stakeholders have called for expanding the use and reuse of data, including the public and open variety, as well as that from private data providers. However, citizens and organizations want self-determination over their data use, that is, data sovereignty. This fundamentals paper applies a literature review to conceptualize the term in Information Systems (IS) research by summarizing current findings and definitions to add further structure to the field. It contributes to the current research streams by introducing a core conceptual model consisting of seven interacting core aspects, involving trust between data providers and consumers for data assets, supported by data infrastructure and contractual agreements on all data lifecycle stages. We evaluate and discuss this conceptual model through recent field examples and provide an overview of future research opportunities.

数据已成为社会繁荣和经济竞争力的战略资产。学术界长期以来达成共识，即数据的价值在使用过程中体现出来。因此，许多利益相关者呼吁扩大数据的使用和重用，包括公共和开放数据以及来自私人数据提供商的数据。然而，公民和组织希望对其数据使用具有自决权，即数据主权。这篇基础论文应用文献综述来概念化信息系统 (IS) 研究中的术语，总结当前的发现和定义，为该领域添加进一步的结构。它通过引入由七个相互作用的核心方面组成的核心概念模型为当前的研究流做出贡献，涉及数据提供者和消费者之间对数据资产的信任，并得到数据基础设施和所有数据生命周期阶段的合同协议的支持。我们通过最近的现场示例评估和讨论这个概念模型，并概述未来的研究机会。
