Call for Abstracts: AlgoSoc International Conference 2025: The Future of Public Values in the Algorithmic Society

A call for abstracts has been published for ‘The Future of Public Values in the Algorithmic Society’, a two-day international conference hosted by AlgoSoc, taking place at Felix Meritis in Amsterdam on 10 & 11 April 2025. The submission deadline is 30 September 2024.

Public Values in the Algorithmic Society (AlgoSoc) is an interdisciplinary research programme which responds to the urgent need for an informed societal perspective on automation and automated decision-making. Grounded in a deep understanding of the systemic changes that automated decision-making systems imply for core public institutions, for society, and for how public values are conceptualised and ultimately realised, AlgoSoc develops solutions for the design of governance frameworks needed to complement technology-driven initiatives in the algorithmic society.

AlgoSoc is a Dutch government funded collaboration between the universities of Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Delft, Utrecht and Tilburg, integrating expertise from law, computer science, the humanities and social sciences.
