Digital Transformation of Collaboration: Proceedings of the 9th International COINs Conference (Springer Proceedings in Complexity)
by Peter A. Gloor Francesca Grippa Aleksandra PrzegalinskaThis proceedings is focused on the emerging concept of Collaborative Innovation Networks (COINs). COINs are at the core of collaborative knowledge networks, distributed communities taking advantage of the wide connectivity and the support of communication technologies, spanning beyond the organizational perimeter of companies on a global scale. The book presents the refereed conference papers from the 7th International Conference on COINs, October 8-9, 2019, in Warsaw, Poland. It includes papers for both application areas of COINs, (1) optimizing organizational creativity and performance, and (2) discovering and predicting new trends by identifying COINs on the Web through online social media analysis. Papers at COINs19 combine a wide range of interdisciplinary fields such as social network analysis, group dynamics, design and visualization, information systems and the psychology and sociality of collaboration, and intercultural analysis through the lens of online social media. They will cover most recent advances in areas from leadership and collaboration, trend prediction and data mining, to social competence and Internet communication.
Digital Transformation, Perspective Development, and Value Creation: Research Case Studies (Routledge Advances in Management and Business Studies)
by Małgorzata PańkowskaThis edited collection aims to provide relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in the area of business management. It covers case studies provided by teachers visiting the University of Economics in Katowice, Poland, within Erasmus and CEEPUS Programmes. Over 12 years, approximately 25 teachers have been coming year by year to Katowice, presenting their monographic lectures and participating in seminars on their research results and educational achievements. This book contains descriptions of case studies, elaborated by Erasmus and CEEPUS teachers, illustrating that the case study is a method of research as well as a method applied in education and emphasizing the value of qualitative methods by example of case studies. The key benefit of qualitative research is that it allows a researcher to perceive and understand context within which decisions and actions take place. Hence, to understand peoples’ motivations, their reasons, their actions, and the context for their beliefs and actions, qualitative research is the best route. Assuming that business organizations as well as individuals are entirely linked together via the Internet, a new approach to business communication and marketing, business modelling and management are developed to reveal an increase of business synergy effects, the alignment of information and communication technologies (ICT) and business and social value creation, as well as sustainability and environment protection. Through this book, readers have an opportunity to learn about relevance and rigor in qualitative research and how the case study can be applied in various organizational contexts.

Digital Transformations in Care for Older People: Critical Perspectives
by Helena Hirvonen, Mia Tammelin, Riitta Hänninen and Eveline J.M. WoutersThe book investigates digitalisation in care for older people by giving insight into service users’ and professionals’ opportunities to digital agency in the context of European welfare states. With a focus on service users and providers experiences of digital care, the contributions address the manifold and often contradictory consequences of active ageing policies and innovation programmes. To assess digital agency of older people, ageism and co-creation in the innovation processes as well the use of digital platforms are addressed, while care professionals’ digital agency is examined through empirical cases that focus on the interaction between human and non-human actors in long-term care services, the temporality and spatiality of care, and the organisational requirements for successful implementation of digital technologies. From a variety of conceptual and theoretical viewpoints, the chapters provide a comprehensive and timely overview of ways to address the phenomena of ageing and digitalisation. The book provides critical vantage points to academic readership, health and social care professionals, policymakers, other stakeholders as well as the general audience on the effects of digitalisation in care for older people.
Digital Urban Acupuncture
by Salvatore Iaconesi Oriana PersicoThis book explores the possibility to observe the lives of cities through ubiquitous information obtained through social networks, sensors and other sources of data and information, and the ways in which this possibility describes a new form of Public Space, which can be used to define new forms of citizenship and participated city governance. The work is the result of years of research across sciences, arts, design, ethnography, cultural geography, performed by multiple researchers, understanding the Relational Ecosystems of cities (the flows of relation, information, knowledge and emotion in the city) and using them to reinterpret the concept of Urban Acupuncture: from the Third Space, Third Landscape and Third Generation City, to the Third Infoscape; from Urban Acupuncture to Digital Urban Acupuncture. The book starts by exploring the many theories and methodologies which have been used to try to capture and use the revolutionary potential found in the daily lives of cities. From De Certeau, to Latour, Bateson, Bhabha, and all the way to Castells, Clèment, Boyd, Casagrande. In a progression which moves from the Third Space (Soja, De Certeau), to the Third Landscape (Clèment), to the Third Generation City (Casagrande), to the Third Paradise (Pistoletto), the book arrives at a definition of the Third Infoscape, following up on Kevin Lynch: a new legibility and imageability of the city. Its main themes and objectives lie in the desire to observe and understand the radical transformation of the definitions, boundaries and configurations of what we call public and private spaces, in different cultures and communities, in the age of communication, information and knowledge, and to use these understandings to formulate a set of working hypotheses for the positive, constructive, active and participatory usage of these transformed scenarios, contributing to the re-definition of concepts such as citizenship, city-governance, urban planning, civic decision-making, and more. And using, in the process, techniques such as Urban Acupuncture, Actor-Network Theory, Diasporic analysis, Peer-to-peer Urbanism and more. Multiple real-life research scenarios and documented case studies will be used, from 4 continents, coming from our research and from other international contributions.
Digital Virtual Consumption (Routledge Studies in Innovation, Organizations and Technology)
by Janice Denegri-Knott Mike MolesworthDigital media present opportunities for new types of consumption including desiring, buying, collecting, making, and even selling digital virtual goods. To these activities we can add those taking place in virtual communities of consumption, online shops, brand websites, and online auction houses that together amount to a vast new landscape of consumption. Digital virtual consumption motivates concatenated practices which produce meaningful experience for their users as well as market opportunities to profit from them. Consumers create and maintain elaborate wish lists, engaging with simulations of brands on websites and in videogames, coveting items for use in online games and even spending ‘real’ money on these, undertaking entrepreneurial activity in virtual worlds, conjuring nostalgia via online auctions, engaging in playful consumption in other new retail formats, writing reviews of products as part of the consumption experience, engaging in online activist activities, and many other emerging behaviors. Analyses of consumption in the digital virtual realm are however limited. This collection brings together experienced researchers from the fields of consumer research, digital games, and virtual worlds to provide conceptual and empirical work that helps us understand these new and significant consumer activities. Online communities negotiate the ‘correct’ use of goods and offer technical advice, consumers develop new products, individuals create and distribute their own promotional material for their favorite brands, and entrepreneurial consumers marketing and selling their own products online. Here we may see a blurring of consumption and production, or work and leisure activity that requires further thought about what makes it meaningful for individuals. The chapters in this volume take stock of the emergence and likely importance of digital virtual consumption for consumer culture, including a review of both new and existing conceptual and methodological tools as well as a resource of key examples and analyses of practices.
Digital Wellness, Health and Fitness Influencers: Critical Perspectives on Digital Guru Media (Routledge Critical Leisure Studies)
by Stefan LawrenceThis book examines the phenomenon of ‘digital guru media’ (DGM), the self-styled online influencers, life coaches, experts and entrepreneurs who post on the themes of wellness, health and fitness. It opens up new perspectives on digital leisure and internet celebrity culture, and asks important questions about the social, cultural and psychological implications of our contemporary relationship with digital media. Drawing on cutting-edge social theory, the book explores a wide range of contexts in which DGM intersects with digital leisure, from the health-related learning of young people to the ‘clean eating’ movement, to the online lives of fitness professionals. It asks if digital and social media are problematic per se and explores the problems a turn to the Internet could be revealing about the lack of real-world or analogue support, as well as potential solutions, for our wellness, health and fitness needs and wants. Bringing together innovative, multi-disciplinary perspectives, this book is fascinating reading for anybody with an interest in leisure studies, media studies, cultural studies, sociology, or health and society.
Digital Work and Digital Workers in Europe and China (China Policy Series)
by Laurence Roulleau-Berger Wen JunThis book is a study of digital workers across diverse contexts in China and Europe, giving valuable insight into their origins, abilities, and working conditions.As the growth of digital work changes the nature of work and employment and the consequences of this for individual workers, this book considers the shift of much economic activity to online activity, examines increasing economic globalization that involves a new global division of labor, with novel forms of global capitalism, and emphasizes the fact that increasingly work for many people is now digital work. It highlights the consequences of this shift, which include the casualization of work, new subaltern labor, and the precarity of employment contracts – whether as self-employment or digital wage – and the relations between digital work, globalization, and emotional capitalism. It discusses how new forms of labor exploitation and how individual and collective mobilizations are emerging, how specific groups such as migrants are especially vulnerable, and how these new forms of capitalism and of working are leading to a rearrangement of the geographical structure of the world economy, with notable consequences for Asia and other non-Western regions.Broadening the global understanding of the evolving nature of work in the digital age, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of the sociology of work and economic sociology, as well as digital sociology.
Digital World Englishes (Language and Digital Media)
by Patricia FriedrichDigital World Englishes aims to be an introduction to and exposition of the universe of world Englishes as represented in online spaces. It presents aspects of world Englishes theory in relation to our evolving digital reality and examples of authentic language variation, change, and code-mixing. To do that, it visits such stations as world Englishes frameworks, pedagogy, new media, augmented intelligence, interactions with other languages, research methodology, and Internet user identities. The reader of the book will come away from the reading with a clear idea of what world Englishes are and how they have morphed, adapted, and come to manifest in online environments. This is likely the first book-length treatment of this topic from the lenses of linguistic creativity, morphing identities, and the power of languages of wider communication.
Digital Youth
by Kaveri Subrahmanyam David SmahelYouth around the world are fittingly described as digital natives because of their comfort and skill with technological hardware and content. Recent studies indicate that an overwhelming majority of children and teenagers use the Internet, cell phones, and other mobile devices. Equipped with familiarity and unprecedented access, it is no wonder that adolescents consume, create, and share copious amounts of content. But is there a cost? Digital Youth: The Role of Media in Development recognizes the important role of digital tools in the lives of teenagers and presents both the risks and benefits of these new interactive technologies. From social networking to instant messaging to text messaging, the authors create an informative and relevant guidebook that goes beyond description to include developmental theory and implications. Also woven throughout the book is an international sensitivity and understanding that clarifies how, despite the widespread popularity of digital communication, technology use varies between groups globally. Other specific topics addressed include: Sexuality on the Internet.Online identity and self-presentation.Morality, ethics, and civic engagement.Technology and health.Violence, cyberbullying, and victimization.Excessive Internet use and addictive behavior. This comprehensive volume is a must-have reference for researchers, clinicians, and graduate students across such disciplines as developmental/clinical child/school psychology, social psychology, media psychology, medical and allied health professions, education, and social work.
Digital Youth Subcultures: Performing ‘Transgressive’ Identities in Digital Social Spaces (Youth, Young Adulthood and Society)
by Kate Hoskins Carlo Genova Nic CroweThis book draws together both primary and secondary empirical research and existing literature to examine transgressive subcultural activities and engagement in digital social spaces (DSS). The book addresses four objectives: 1. To understand how young peoples’ subcultures arise online and they are constructed and experienced in DSS 2. To understand how and why DSS matter to young people 3. To understand if any DSS controls exist in these online spaces and 4. To understand how identity locations such as social class, gender and ethnicity and/or their intersections shape young peoples’ engagement and behaviour(s) in DSS. In addressing these objectives with a focus on European contributions, the text provides a holistic understanding of the purpose of digital social spaces in shaping young peoples’ identities and self-perceptions. It will be of interest to postgraduate students, secondary school teachers, lecturers and scholars in education, sociology, youth studies and technology.
Digital and Postdigital Learning for Changing Universities (World Issues in the Philosophy and Theory of Higher Education)
by Maggi Savin-BadenThis book explores the purpose, role and function of the university and examines the disconnection between students’ approaches to learning and university strategy. It centres on the idea that it is vital to explore what counts as a university in the twenty-first century, what it is for, and for whom, as well as how it can transcend social divisions. The universities of the twenty-first century need to have larger audiences, a broader voice, a shift away from othering and an effective means of progressing such shifts. What is central to such exploration is the idea that learning needs to be seen as postdigital. With a focus on how the growth of technology has and continues to affect university learning, this book: explores the concepts of the digital and the postdigital; promotes just and inclusive pedagogies for higher education; considers ways to ensure learning is an ethical and political experience; studies how to understand community and collective values through higher education; suggests ways of promoting personal and collective responsibility for our world and its peoples; presents ways in which the university can challenge ideologies based on capitalist modes of consumption, privilege and exploitation. Digital and Postdigital Learning for Changing Universities is essential reading for anyone seeking to reimagine the university in a postdigital age, despite institutional structuration and government intervention. It challenges current assumptions and practices, and encourages new ways of thinking about higher education and learning in the twenty-first century.
Digital and Smart Cities (Routledge Critical Introductions to Urbanism and the City)
by Katharine S. Willis Alessandro AurigiDigital and Smart Cities presents an overview of how technologies shape our cities. There is a growing awareness in the fields of design and architecture of the need to address the way that technology affects the urban condition. This book aims to give an informative and definitive overview of the topic of digital and smart cities. It explores the topic from a range of different perspectives, both theoretical and historical, and through a range of case studies of digital cities around the world. The approach taken by the authors is to view the city as a socially constructed set of activities, practices and organisations. This enables the discussion to open up a more holistic and citizen- centred understanding of how technology shapes urban change through the way it is imagined, used, implemented and developed in a societal context. By drawing together a range of currently quite disparate discussions, the aim is to enable the reader to take their own critical position within the topic. The book starts out with definitions and sets out the various interpretations and aspects of what constitutes and defines digital cities. The text then investigates and considers the range of factors that shape the characteristics of digital cities and draws together different disciplinary perspectives into a coherent discussion. The consideration of the different dimensions of the digital city is backed up with a series of relevant case studies of global city contexts in order to frame the discussion with real world examples.

Digital bodies
by Jessie Daniels, Karen Gregory & Tressie McMillan CottomIn the early days of the internet, we assumed that digital technologies would allow us to escape embodiment and its accompanying entanglements. Yet now our embodied selves are often targeted for abuse and harassment online. As we move into the Internet of Things, the digital is increasingly on and in our bodies. The pieces in this Byte raise important questions about what it means to bring our embodied selves into contact with digital media technologies. Read alongside one another, the selections here expand our understanding of what it means to live in and through bodies augmented by digital technologies within a deeply unequal social world.

Digital sociology in everyday life
by Jessie Daniels, Karen Gregory & Tressie McMillan CottomDigital technologies, digital media, and mobile technologies now shape the experience of everyday life in the Western world, yet the way our quotidian lives are enmeshed with these technologies is far from clearly understood. Through studies of the digital everyday, sociologists are beginning to reinvigorate the sociological imagination in light of digitization. Chapters in this Byte cover topics such as designing a research framework and how to work ethically as a digital researcher, continually interrogating one’s position as a researcher and reflecting on the process of knowledge creation. Cumulatively, they highlight the value of sociological theory for understanding our digital world.
Digital verbunden – sozial getrennt: Gesellschaftliche Ungleichheit in räumlicher Perspektive
by Jörg SchefferDie Digitalisierung festigt die bestehenden gesellschaftlichen Verhältnisse. Entgegen dem vorherrschenden Narrativ einer „digitalen Befähigung“ und den viel beschriebenen Chancen für jeden Einzelnen, macht dieses Buch deutlich, dass die Digitalisierung die sozialen Aufstiegschancen massiv beschneidet. In einer räumlichen Perspektive lässt sich zeigen, wie sozial benachteiligte Bevölkerungen im Zeichen einer neuen Datenökonomie mit reproduktiven Mechanismen konfrontiert werden. Das Soziale wird konserviert. Dies geschieht erstaunlicherweise umso stärker, je intensiver die digitalen Angebote in Anspruch genommen werden.
Digital vernetzte Arbeit: Merkmale und Anforderungen eines neuen Typus von Arbeit
by Michael Heinlein Judith Neumer Tobias RitterDigitale Vernetzung wird als neues Merkmal von Arbeit immer offensichtlicher. Mit der Durchdringung der Arbeit mit digitalen Technologien – von E-Mail-Programmen, Online-Kalendern und ERP-Systemen zu cyber-physischen Systemen – gehen spezifische, in besonderer Weise auch belastende Anforderungen einher. Die Vernetzung mit Hilfe digitaler Technologien nimmt dabei nicht nur quantitativ über Hierarchieebenen, Qualifikationsstufen, Organisationseinheiten und Arbeitsbereiche hinweg zu, sondern verändert Arbeit auch in qualitativer Hinsicht: Digitale Technologien werden zu einem integralen Bestandteil der Vernetzungsarbeit selbst. Der Sammelband vereint die Befunde und Perspektiven zum Phänomen der digital vernetzten Arbeit, die im BMBF-geförderten Projekt „Arbeit oberhalb der mentalen Dauerbelastungsgrenze: Leistungsregulierung bei qualifizierter digital vernetzter Arbeit“ (LedivA) in drei Unternehmen aus Produktion und Dienstleistung gewonnen wurden. Im Vordergrund stehen arbeitssoziologische, arbeitspsychologische und arbeitsmedizinische Überlegungen zur Digitalisierung vernetzter Arbeit, empirische Befunde zu neuen mentalen Anforderungen und Belastungen digital vernetzter Arbeit und Interventionsmöglichkeiten, die verhaltens- und verhältnisbezogene Maßnahmen umfassen.
