CALL FOR PAPERS
for a special issue of Philosophy and Technology: “Rethinking
surveillance: theories, discourses, structures and practices”.
Following the international conference TILTing Perspectives held in Tilburg in April, 2015, Tilburg Institute for Law, technology and Society (TILT) is guest-editing
a special issue of Springer’s Philosophy & Technology. In this special issue, we aim to bring together contributions from
legal, ethical and social scholars, as well as technology developers and engineers that can explore and discuss the synergies, benefits and trade-offs of developments in new technologies and related changes in surveillance structures, discourses and practices.
Both theoretical contributions and (sector-specific) case studies are welcome, but all papers need to engage closely with the philosophical implications of the relationship between changes in technology and changes in observational practices.
This special issue of Springer’s Philosophy & Technology follows
the international conference TILTing Perspectives, which was held in Tilburg in April, 2015. Although this conference addressed the specific theme of the relationship between
surveillance and eHealth, contributions to the special issue focused on health and healthcare are not necessarily (but still welcome).
Important dates:
October 31, 2015: Deadline papers submissions
November 30, 2015: Deadline reviews papers
January 15, 2016: Deadline revised papers
April-May 2016: Publication of the special issue
See full Call for details.
