Call for Papers Special Issue of International Journal of Electronic Commerce: “Dark Sides of Digitalization”
Digitalization of individuals (i.e., the proliferation of digital technologies in the lives of individuals), organizations (i.e., digitalization of work and the business environment) and societies (i.e., the digital economy) has been enabled by information technologies (IT) such as smartphones, social media, cloud-based systems, robots, and artificial intelligence. The adoption and use of these technologies have reshaped human’s perceptions, actions, and environments; and are associated with a myriad of benefits for individuals, organizations, and societies (e.g. connectivity, enhanced decision-making, increased productivity and economic growth) (Bleicher & Stanley, 2016; Brynjolfsson et al., 2003; Huang et al., 2017). Despite the conspicuous benefits, digitalization has also unveiled “dark sides” at the individual, organizational, and societal levels. While the bright sides of digitalization have received much academic attention, the literature on the dark sides of digitalization is in its early stages and in need of further research (Turel et al., 2019). This special issue intends to provide a forum for studies focusing on the dark side of digitalization at all levels of analysis. The objective of this special issue is to focus on the drivers, processes, and consequences of the dark side of digitalization as well as the potential strategies and ways for rectifying them. Some of the proposed research topics include, but are not limited to:
• Issues related to the problematic, addictive, and deviant patterns of use of IT. • Security and privacy concerns associated with digitalization and e-commerce, including surveillance and appropriation of personal behavior traces for corporate use. • The dark side of artificial intelligence and interacting with robots, such as diminished human control and loss of jobs. • Deceptive computer-mediated communication and fake online contents and their associated costs. • Social fissures, inequality, and concentration of power due to digitalization. • De-democratization and polarization of society due to digitalization. • The adverse effects of e-commerce and sharing economy for individuals, organizations, and society.
