Conversations on the Social Embeddedness of Digital Technologies

Overview

Digital technologies are characteristic of our society. At the same time, they lead to for-reaching changes in the processes of work, organisation, privacy and also in the society as a whole. This raises questions and challenges about how the digital revolution shall be steered in a way that is consistent with normative and ethical foundations of libertarian civil societies, which are a precondition for modern democratic statehood.

The general aim of these conversations is to gain an insight into the interplay of society and digital technologies. We welcome researchers from different academic disciplines, e.g. social science and computer sciences, who present current perspectives and research results on digital technologies and their social embeddedness.

The conversations take place every Tuesday from 16:00 to 17:00 during the summer term 2021 in form of a virtual meeting. After a short introduction, the speakers will present recent work, followed by a discussion of the content in plenary session.

The conversations are part of the research training group “Social embeddedness of Autonomous Cyber Physical Systems (SEAS)” and the research center “Human Cyber-Physical System (HCPS)” with the cluster “Human – Technology – Society”. The target group of the conversations are members of SEAS and HCPS. Moreover, the conversations will be also attractive for undergraduate and graduate students and researchers from disciples such as Social Science, Computer Science, Health and Neuroscience.
