-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Digital Technology, Societal Change, and Institutional Logics :: Special Issue - Call for Papers Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2023 16:27:21 +0000 From: Faik, Isam <ifaik(a)ivey.ca> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> **Special Issue in Information & Organization: Digital Technology, Societal Change, and Institutional Logics** Call for Papers: Digital technologies are increasingly a source of large-scale societal change resulting in positive transformation yet also grand challenges. Advancing our understanding of how these societal changes are related to the materiality of digital technologies requires attention to how technology is becoming integral to the institutional processes that define twenty-first-century societies. Analyses are needed of the ways technology is becoming a defining element of the institutional logics that shape individual cognition, action, and evaluation in the different areas of social life. For this special issue, we seek empirical and conceptual papers that explore how digital technology is altering established institutional arrangements and changing the multiplicity of institutional logics in different domains of society. Guest editors: Dr. Isam Faik Western University, Ivey Business School, London, Canada Dr. Eivor Oborn University of Warwick, Warwick Business School, Coventry, England, United Kingdom Dr. Patricia Thornton HEC Paris / Texas A&M University, Strategy and Business Policy, Institute for Society & Organizations, Department of Sociology, United States of America Dr. Thomas Gegenhuber Johannes Kepler University Linz and Leuphana University Lüneburg, Lüneburg, Germany Special issue information: Digital technologies are increasingly a source of large-scale societal change resulting in positive transformation, yet also grand challenges. On the one hand, the use of digital technologies in organizing social and economic activity has been shown to help alleviate poverty (Jha, Pinsonneault, & Dubé, 2016, Oborn, Barrett, Orlikowski, Kim 2019), increase social inclusion (Andrade & Doolin, 2016), and foster political participation (Selander & Jarvenpaa, 2016). On the other hand, digital technologies have been shown to increase systemic risks (Tarafdar, Gupta, & Turel, 2013), reduce employment standards (Brynjolfsson & McAfee, 2012), and undermine democratic processes (Allcott & Gentzkow, 2017). While these prior studies demonstrate the power of digital technology to affect specific contexts, this call for new research papers draws attention to the need for a more general theoretical understanding of the effects of digital technology on institutions as well as its effects on large-scale institutional change at the societal level. One promising avenue to explore in advancing theory development is to engage in analyses of the ways digital technology is becoming a defining element of the institutional logics that shape individual and organizational attention, cognition, and behavior. How does the materiality (Jones, Meyer, & Hollerer, 2017) of digital technology affect the institutions that comprise society? Digital technologies are undoubtedly integral to the wide range of institutional processes that define twenty-first century societies. In particular, understanding societal-level changes requires theory and analyses of the ways technology is becoming a defining element of the institutional logics that shape action and evaluation in the different areas of social life (Faik, Barrett, & Oborn, 2020). Such analyses can enable scholars to explore how technology is altering the multiplicity of logics in different domains and generating new institutional arrangements. They can also help us explore how the multiplicity of institutional logics might shape and influence the way technologies become created, used, which goals are attended to, and which stakeholders and agents benefit by becoming more active in the process of societal change. We need studies, for example, that investigate how and why some institutional logics are becoming more salient as a result of technological change while other logics are being undermined and silenced into dormancy (Gawer & Phillips, 2013). We need to learn more about how technological change is increasing the compatibility of certain institutional logics while heightening the contradictions and tensions among others (Berente & Yoo, 2012). Despite significant advances in theorizing the relationship between technological and institutional change (Orlikowski and Barley 2001; Scott, 2013; Berente and Seidel 2022), the focus in the literature has been on change at the organizational and inter-organizational levels (Winter, Berente, Howison, & Butler, 2014). There is now a need for systematic studies that can enrich our theoretical repertoire for explaining the implications of technological change at the societal level. We need to advance our theorizing of the constitutive role of technology in large-scale societal changes, for example by enabling new actor constellations (Hinings, Gegenhuber and Greenwood 2018), rendering certain institutional logics more available, accessible, and active (Gawer and Phillips 2013) and how collective action may be linked to new sources of meaning (Raviola and Norbak 2013). Research Themes and Questions This special issue aims to contribute to the development of our theoretical repertoire for studying the complex relationship between technology and societal change, along with its implications for individuals and organizations. We therefore call for empirical and conceptual papers that examine the relationship between the materiality of technological changes and the corresponding changes of established institutional arrangements. Studies can fall within one of the following broad themes: 1. Digital Technologies, Institutional Changes, and Societal Outcomes: Technology-enabled institutional changes are generating diverse, and often paradoxical, societal outcomes. Studies under this theme would develop institutional explanations for how the diffusion of digital technologies is changing the conditions of poverty (Li et al. 2019; Ravishankar 2021), social marginalization (Chan et al. 2016), gender equity (McGee 2018), democracy (Leong et al. 2020), and surveillance (Bekkers et al. 2013; Zuboff 2015). Studies are needed that advance our understanding of the institutional changes through which digital technologies become integral to solutions for addressing grand societal challenges (Gumusay, Claus & Amis 2020). The questions that can be addressed under this theme include: - How does the interaction of institutions and digital technologies affect societal outcomes such as inclusion, equality, and prosperity? - How is the growing prevalence of digital technologies creating new institutional conditions that favor some solutions but not others in responding to societal challenges such as natural disasters, climate change, and pandemics? - How does the integration of digital technologies into established institutions impact contemporary popular press and public policy issues such as democratic election integrity, voter fraud, fake news, media bias, and censorship? 2. Digital Transformation of Established Institutional Arrangements: The literature offers various frameworks for conceptualizing digital transformation as a process of institutional change (Gegenhuber et al. 2022; Hinings et al. 2018). However, our analyses of the mechanisms through which digital technologies become integral to institutional change remain limited. Digital technologies have been conceptualized as both carriers of institutions and triggers of institutional change (Berente and Seidel 2022). We therefore need to investigate when and how digital technologies are a source of stability and when they are a source of change. Studies under this theme would advance our understanding of how digital technologies reinforce dominant institutional logics, how they allow alternative institutional logics to become dominant (Faik, Barrett, & Oborn, 2020), and how they create conditions for institutional hybridity in which multiple logics co-exist (Pache & Thornton, 2021; Besharov and Mitzinneck, 2021). The questions that can be addressed under this theme include: - How are emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, and the internet of things, challenging or reinforcing dominant institutional logics or activating previously dormant institutional logics? - How does the rapid scaling of new technologies, such as social media platforms, alter institutions and institutional logics? - How are digital technologies enabling and/or constraining the emergence of hybrid institutional logics, hybrid organizing, and collaborative governance? 3. Effect of institutional contexts on digital technologies Institutional contexts shape how actors create and use digital technologies (Barley, 1986; Barrett and Walsham 1999). For example, numerous studies showed how institutional forces in various regulatory contexts lead to variations in the operation and usage of platform services such as Uber (Davis and Sina, 2021; Uzunca et al. 2018). Recently, Gegenhuber et al. (2022) call for a deeper exploration of practices and culture of the sites where technologies are (re-)produced. For example, the Silicon Valley digital ecosystem embraces technological solutionism, an ultra-growth-at-all costs model and idealizes the (male) lone entrepreneur, which arguably shapes what kind of technology is created and can result in exclusionary practices when designing new digital technologies. These considerations may lead to exploring following questions: - How do institutional contexts affect the development, adoption, implementation, use, and scaling of digital technologies? - How does fragmentation of the institutional environment and contending institutional logics affect how digital technologies are used and evaluated? - In what ways do institutional logics shape the evolution of digital ecosystems 4. Institutional Logics and Digital Technologies When Thornton and colleagues (2012) expanded the ideal types of the interinstitutional system with the community logic, they drew on work studying contemporary communities such as open source communities (e.g., O'Mahony and Ferraro, 2007; O'Mahony and Lakhani, 2010). Against this backdrop, we understand this volume as an invitation to explore how actors using and practicing digital technology offer an opportunity to push the theoretical conversation around institutional perspectives and theories, such as institutional logics. While there has been some progress (e.g. establishing the link between affordances and institutional logics; Falk et al., 2020), much remains to be explored. Such endeavors will also raise methodological questions, for example how to detect categorical elements of institutional logics in digital interfaces or algorithms. Hence, we suggest the following questions are worth exploring: - How does a focus on digital technology change what we know, i.e., theoretical mechanisms and scope conditions, of classic theory, e.g., loose coupling and symbolic management (Meyer and Rowan, 1977; Westphal & Park, 2020) and isomorphism (DiMaggio and Powell, 1983) in neo-institutional theory, conflicting logics in the institutional logics perspective (Thornton, Ocasio and Lounsbury, 2012), valuation of categories (Durand and Paolella, 2016; Durand and Thornton, 2018; Zuckerman 2017) and organizational and institutional hybridity (Battilana, Besharov & Mitzinneck, 2017)? - How do digital technologies interact with the categorical elements of institutional logics such as expressions of identity, authority, and legitimacy (Thornton, Ocasio and Lounsbury, 2012)? - How do we study institutional logics methodologically given the new digital realities of our empirical contexts? Submission: Regular submission to Information and Organization, as well as submissions to the Research Impact and Contributions to Knowledge (RICK) section will be considered. Authors are encouraged to review the aims and scope statement for the journal (https://www.journals.elsevier.com/information-and-organization) and review abstracts of recent publications via the Science Direct link on the website to better understand the journal's focus and publication genre. Regular submissions should have the potential for a substantive contribution to theory that complements empirical results or case studies reports. RICK submissions are briefer (approx. 8000 words) and address the impact or translation of scholarly knowledge broadly. Authors considering a RICK submission should review the overview of RICK genre on the website and recent RICK publications (https://www.journals.elsevier.com/information-and-organization/call-for-pap…). Important Dates: Submissions for the first round open: March 15, 2023 Deadline for First-round submissions: June 15, 2023 First-round decisions: October 15, 2023 Second Round submissions: February 15, 2024 Second Round Decisions: June 15, 2024 Manuscript submission information: The Information and Organization's submission system will be open for submissions to our Special Issue from 15 March 2023.

These papers will clearly articulate practical or policy implications. They will be written in a way that makes a complex technology or law understandable to readers from a variety of backgrounds. 3. Teaching cases that help educators and students think critically about the social impact of technology. These papers will include discussion questions to help students and educators think through the potential future impacts of technology. 4. Methodology papers that highlight methods especially useful for research in IS societal impact. These papers may explore mixed methodology, new methods, or novel applications of methods that are currently underutilized in societal impact IS research. In this minitrack, we seek to advance understanding of how technology design, development, implementation, and governance influence both positive and negative social impact. We want to understand how technology improves or worsens societal and organizational conditions. The following list of potential topics is not meant to be exhaustive: Type 1 Papers: Traditional Research * Technology and social good (e.g., emancipation, dignity, social justice, inclusion, empowerment, collective and connective action, activism, social movements, transparency). * Technology and social ills (e.g., surveillance capitalism, excessive algorithmic management, privacy violations, oppressive work conditions for gig workers, digital divide, inequity, exclusion, terrorism, cybercrime, human trafficking, and strategic systems design that promotes technology addiction). Type 2 Papers: Practice- or Policy- Oriented * Descriptions and implications of innovations (e.g., vaccine passports, blockchain, big data, virtual reality, employee wearables and trackers, algorithmic management, smart homes). * Descriptions and implications of policies and laws (e.g., PACT Act, remote work policies, PRO Act, algorithmic hiring policies, COPPA, UNESCO, gig worker policies, ADA, privacy policies). Type 3 Papers: Teaching Cases * Cases and discussion questions to help educators and students think critically about the positive and negative impacts of technology for diverse groups, organizations, or society. Type 4 Papers: Methodology * Novel use of methodologies or development of new methodologies that are particularly appropriate for research in IS societal impact.

Call for Papers: Smart Cities (Government, Districts, Communities & Regions) Track Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2023 07:50:52 +0100 From: Manuel Pedro Rodriguez Bolivar <manuelp(a)ugr.es> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Dear colleague, Urban growth, natural disasters and health emergencies have introduced a number of important issues in the urban context, pushing cities towards a mandatory digital transition to a smart environment. The digital transformation of these communities has become a top priority for city governments and communities and offers great promise for improved wellbeing and prosperity.Emergent and disruptive technologies like Artificial Intelligence, blockchain, chatbots, open data, Internet of Things, or clean technologies are opening new avenues to become smart and are at the forefront of smart projects to improve citizen engagement, public service provision, city sustainability and resilience. However, significant challenges have also arisen at the complex intersection of technology and society. The Smart Cities track at EGOV-CeDEM-ePart 2023 aims to critically explore these issues, and research contributions that pay particular attention to topics related to the opportunities and challenges faced by smart cities, smart districts, and smart communities, as well as to the impact of these initiatives on sustainable living and governance, are therefore sought. Submissions that focus on the orchestrated interplay and balance of smart governance practices, smart public administration, smart communities, smart districts, smart resources, and talent leverage in urban, rural, and regional spaces facilitated by novel uses of ICT and other technologies are also welcome.Research papers submitted may cover both organizational and technical aspects and could seek to combine theory and practice. Submissions taking interdisciplinary approaches and covering a multitude of aspects are strongly encouraged.

Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP HICSS 2024 - Minitrack Digital Opportunity Recognition
by Gustaf Neumann 15 Mar '23

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP HICSS 2024 - Minitrack Digital Opportunity Recognition Date: Wed, 15 Mar 2023 08:47:07 +0100 From: manuel.muehlburger(a)jku.at To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org CALL FOR PAPERS - Digital Opportunity Recognition We invite you to submit your manuscript to the "Conceptualisation, Evaluation and Integration of Digital Opportunity Recognition" mini-track under the Organizational Systems and Technology Track at the Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS-57), Waikiki, Hawaii, January 3-6, 2024. For more details see: https://hicss.hawaii.edu/ The increasing scale, scope, and speed of technology adoption in businesses has led to an environment in which competitive advantages are increasingly gained and eroded by the application of digital technologies. To operate in such environments, organizations are dependent on their capability to continuously recognize opportunities that can stem from technological affordances. Such opportunities can emerge on all organizational levels and can vary in their degree of innovativeness. Overcoming this challenge requires a holistic approach integrating all perspectives on digital value creation beyond single technologies and their associated opportunities. We call for research approaches taking into account factors spanning the individual domains of skills and values alongside the organizational domains of normative, operative, tactical, and strategic organizational structures and processes to understand, conceptualize, and support the organizational capability of digital opportunity recognition. This mini-track welcomes high-quality research from all related fields independent of their underlying research paradigms and applied methodology. We are particularly interested in approaches grounded in a broad understanding of digital opportunities that includes established technologies and their use cases as well as novel technologies and opportunities for digital innovation. Alongside exploratory research on the conceptual nature and the determining factors of this recognition capability, we invite studies aimed at developing and evaluating artifacts supporting a holistic digital opportunity recognition in organizations. Possible topics for submissions include but are not limited to: * Holistic approaches for structuring the organizational, economic, environmental and technological contexts of digital opportunities * Organizational approaches for the recognition of digital opportunities * Real-world cases demonstrating approaches for digital opportunity recognition * Role of Knowledge Management Systems for digital opportunity recognition * Microprocesses and fundamentals of collaborative digital opportunity recognition processes * Development of artifacts supporting digital opportunity recognition * Individual knowledge, skills and attitudes relevant for digital opportunity recognition * Organizational and individual factors influencing digital opportunity recognition * Challenges evolving from holistic approaches towards digital opportunity recognition * Approaches of responsible and sustainable innovation in digital opportunity recognition * Parallels between digital opportunity recognition and impact assessments * Strategic relevance of digital opportunity recognition Important Dates for Paper Submission: June 15, 2023 | 11:59 pm HST: Submission Deadline August 17, 2023 | 11:59 pm HST: Notification of Acceptance/Rejection September 22, 2023|11:59 pm HST: Deadline for Submission of Final Manuscript for Publication October 1, 2023 | 11:59 pm HST: Deadline for at least one author to register for HICSS-57 Mini-track Co-Chairs: In case of any questions regarding the fit of your research towards the topic of this mini-track do not hesitate to contact the mini-track chairs with your questions. We look forward to your submissions.
