[AISWorld] Final CFP -- HICSS 53 -- The Sharing Economy Mini-track

[Bo Xiao]

53rd Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS-53) January
7-10, 2020--Grand Wailea Hotel, Wailea, Maui, Hawaii, USA

Submission Deadline (June 15, 2019)


Mini-track: The Sharing Economy
Track: Collaboration Systems and Technologies


Sharing Economy has gained notable attention within mainstream media as a
new economic paradigm that leverages peer-to-peer technological platforms
to facilitate exchange of resources among individuals who are joined via
fluid relational networks. While there are many practitioners who have
prophesized the sharingeconomy as a game-changer for how organizations and
society function, there are also a number of detractors who questioned the
uncertain and potentially disruptive future that is brought about by such
peer-to-peer exchanges. Critics have painted a dismal picture of the sharing
 economy as a means for individuals and/or firms to dodge proper
regulations and live beyond their means, which in turn contributes to
doomsday scenarios of massive job displacements and spending habits
detrimental to society. In light of the opportunities and challenges posed
by the sharing economy, there is a clear urgency for a systematic and
thorough scrutiny of how value creation and appropriation can take place
within such economic environments while minimizing its negative impact to
society.



The aim of this minitrack is to sensitize both academics and practitioners
to the latest trends and developments in the sharingeconomy in order to
determine how value can be created and appropriated within this novel
economic environment powered primarily by technology. This minitrackembraces
both retrospective and progressive views of how the sharingeconomy has
evolved and would transform with technological advances. We welcome papers
that identify and address knowledge gaps in how emergent technologies are
shaping the access and sharing of resources within online peer-to-peer
communities. Papers that subscribe to inter-disciplinary perspectives
and/or adopt mixed methods are particularly welcome.



Topics of interest of the minitrack include, but are not limited to:

Collaborative consumption and production in sharing economy
Crowdfunding and communal investment
Crowdsourcing and open innovation
Crowd platform strategies
Data privacy and security in sharingeconomy
Design and innovation of crowd platforms
Digital business models of sharing economy
Digital labor markets and workforce management in sharing economy
Disruptive innovation in sharing economy
Market mechanics of sharing economy
Policy formulation for sharing economy
Reputation and trust in sharing economy
Social network in sharing economy
Socio-economic and political challenges of sharing economy
Value appropriation in sharing economy


Best papers accepted to this mini-track will be fast-tracked to Internet
Research, an international and refereed journal that is indexed and
abstracted in major databases (e.g., SSCI, SCI, ABI/INFORM Global).
