Title of Speech
The Data Driven Parent: The Role of Digital Monitoring Technologies in Childcare
Details
In the digital era, technology profoundly influences society, offering both challenges and opportunities for sociological research. As digital platforms reshape communication, work, and social interactions, they also raise issues like privacy concerns and digital divides. This conference seeks papers exploring these dynamics and their impact on economic, political, educational, and cultural spheres. We welcome discussions on the ethical implications of digital research methods, the role of big data, and the potential for digital tools to drive social change. Join us in examining how digital transformations intersect with inequality, identity, and power in the evolving sociological landscape.
