Social & Ethical Issues To IS
The Social Issues in Information System track includes all aspects of social
issues that are impacted by information technology affecting organizations
and inter-organizational structures. This track provides an outlet for
scholarship in the changes information resource management, information
technology, and information systems have effected on society. The term
"society" here refers to the world at large, nations, cultures within nations,
and interaction among peoples. The scholarship examines who is affected,
why, how, and where, and what effects those changes make in society. The
topics in the track are expected to be varied. This would include the
conceptualization of specific social issues and their associated constructs,
proposed designs and infrastructures, empirical validation of social models,
and case studies illustrating socialization success and failures. Some key
topics may include:
1) ethics
2) culture
3) relationships,
4) human interaction
5) security
6) design
7) building relationships
8) diversity in the IT workforce
