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
