Dear colleagues,
We would like to inform you about our call for papers for an *interdisciplinary anthology* in the *Springer* *book series **"Öffentliche Wissenschaft und gesellschaftlicher Wandel" (**"Pay-as-you-live – Socio-technical Systems and Social Consequences")*. The submission deadline for abstracts (up to 500 words) is June 30th, further information can be found below or in the attached call.
Pay-as-you-live (PAYL): People are increasingly measuring themselves digitally and freely pass on these private data to third parties, e.g. health insurances. These offer bonus programs and so called pay-as-you-live rates with which they want to reward health-conscious or preventive behavior with monetary or other means. Against this background, PAYL-systems as a signature of contemporary society means: digitization on one hand and the economization of the social on the other. &nb sp; The interdisciplinary contributions of the anthology, describe, analyze and evaluate this trend and the underlying interactions between technology and society. On the one hand, they deal with the technological requirements of PAYL-systems, for example in the area of IT-security and data protection as well as scoring algorithms, on the other hand, they ask about the gradual change in the cultural matrix through the institutionalizations and practices associated with PAYL-systems. We explicitly invite practitioners and researcher to send in contributions.
The admission is with Prof. Stefan Selke, Prof. Stefanie Betz and Nele Wulf.
If you have any questions, we are happy to help!
Sincerely yours
Nele Wulf
