* Conference Scope
The effects of ICT on human beings as well as the interaction between ICT,
individuals, and society are all within the focus of this conference. Both
analyses of interactions and effects are important. Changes in behaviour,
perspectives, values, competencies, human and psychological aspects and
feelings are all of interest. Reflections on past, present, and future
challenges – especially planning to handle the future – are encouraged.
The conference pays attention to societal changes, global and more local
organisational and institutional changes, changes in values and in
lifestyles, as well as individual cognitive effects and changes,
motivational and emotional changes. It also appeals to solution-building
in terms of desirable goals and actions for reaching a Good Information
Society.
In general all types of research strategies are encouraged, and especially
cross-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary studies. Case studies, broader
empirical field studies, theoretical analyses, cross-cultural studies,
scenarios, ethnographic studies, epistemological analyses may all be
