Dear HCM Colleagues,
you have time until Tuesday, January 9, 2024 to submit your short paper to the EGOS 2024 hybrid sub-theme 21: "At a crossroads: Professions, Disruptive Technologies and Institutional Dynamics" (Convenors: Giulia Cappellaro, Claudia Gabbioneta, Joel Gehman). If you are conducting research on novel technologies and professions, with an interest in domains affected by technologies such as digital technologies based on artificial intelligence systems, robotics, cybersecurity, generative AI, and so forth, please consider submitting your short paper to Sub-theme 21. We encourage empirical and conceptual papers with a variety of theoretical lenses and methodological approaches. We are especially interested in papers that take a macro, field-level perspective, giving attention to the institutional stakes, addressing topics such as:
- How do disruptive technologies change the relationships and boundaries across professions and ecologies of professions?
- How can disruptive technologies be developed to tackle complex societal challenges?
- How do professionals collaborate with networks of stakeholders (e.g., policy makers, private providers, user associations) to regulate, adopt and scale up disruptive technologies at the field level? What field level governance arrangements emerge?
- How can professions leverage and/or strategically create ambiguity in and around disruptive technologies to protect their jurisdictional boundaries, power, and identities?
- How do disruptive technologies affect knowledge creation and/or sharing within professions?
- How can disruptive technologies trigger the reconfiguration of existing professions or the creation of new ones?
Please find the full call for short papers here:
Feel free to reach out to me, Claudia or Joel for more info!
