INFORMATION SECURITY EDUCATION JOURNAL Rev. Dr. Joseph R. Laracy, Editor-in-chief Dr. Thomas Marlowe, Associate Editor Dr. Ziyuan Meng, Special Issue Editor Call for Papers: Special Issue on Ethics and Information Security Education As information technology continues to reshape society, security issues have become increasingly multifaceted. Security in modern technological society must consider software, hardware, communication, and physical structures, as well as human behavior and social conditions (e.g., social engineering). It embraces privacy, confidentiality, functional integrity, and intellectual property, as well as overlapping with safety, economic, and social concerns. Thus, ethical issues are inherent and pervasive in the security universe, and need to be a focus of security education. The call for papers for this special issue aims to tackle unprecedented ethical challenges in information security. We invite manuscripts that present state-of-art research on emerging security-related ethical issues in different technological domains and their significance in education. We also encourage submission on critical re-evaluation of information security ethical theories, practice, methodologies, and their philosophical foundation. Possible topics include (but are not limited to): � Professional codes of ethics and ethical behavior. � Ethics in data science and data analytics. � Ethics and statistics. � Reputation and ethics�reputation management, responsibility of social media to users. � Intellectual property, secrecy, security, and safety�risks, tradeoffs, and ethical concerns. � Ethics in software development. � Ethical hacking. � Legal restrictions (e.g., HIPAA) and ethics�overlaps and issues. � Accessibility as an ethical concern. � Ethics in zero-day vulnerability knowledge management and marketing. � Philosophical foundations of information security ethics. The final deadline for submissions is November 30, 2020. Questions pertaining to the special issue should be directed to the special issue editor, Dr. Ziyuan Meng via email at: [1]zmeng(a)drew.edu Submission Instructions: Please submit manuscripts using the journal website: [2]http://www.dline.info/isej/submission.php About: ISEJ seeks to collect and publish high-quality research, perspective, and best practice articles on the instructional challenges and innovations associated with Information Security teaching and learning in post-secondary educational settings.

CFP: Journal of Peer Production #15 TRANSITION
by Mathieu.O'Neil 30 Jun '20

30 Jun '20

CFP: Journal of Peer Production #15 TRANSITION <apologies for multiple posts> PEER PRODUCTION AND OUR CRISES Peer producers are people who create and manage common-pool resources together. It sometimes seems as if “peer production” and “digital commons” can be used interchangeably. Digital commons such as free and open source software and Wikipedia are non-rivalrous (they can be reproduced at little or no cost) and non-excludable (no-one can prevent others from using them, through property rights for example). So, practically speaking, proprietary objects could be produced by equal “peers”. We argue that peer production has a normative dimension so that what chiefly characterizes this mode of production is that “the output is orientated towards the further expansion of the commons; while the commons, recursively, is the chief resource in this mode of production” (Söderberg & O'Neil, 2014, p. 2). The Journal of Peer Production has tracked the evolution of peer production from open knowledge to open design and manufacturing. It approaches its ten-year anniversary in the time of the global pandemic, and of the continuing environmental crisis. The impacts of Covid-19 are profound, but will not last forever, though local infection pools may subsist in poorer countries for much longer than in the Global North. In contrast, the environmental crisis is here to stay. THE ROLE OF THE JOURNAL OF PEER PRODUCTION Significant social change is required to stave off climate destruction, and principles such as cooperation and trust, transparency in production, collective democratic decision-making, etc., can usefully contribute to necessary processes of “relocalization” and “degrowth”.* What should be done to develop the digital and physical commons? What role should the Journal of Peer Production play in this development? And what shape should it take? It is clear that in addition to maintaining its uniquely transparent curation and dissemination of academic research, the Journal of Peer Production needs to expand its work in several ways: -Should it feature more practical advice to develop commons, such as toolkits and how-to guides? -Should it comprise policy proposals to help grow the infrastructure which supports the commons? -In other words, should it combine research and action? The answer is "yes" in all three cases. To this end we seek creative, practical and policy-oriented ideas to help invent a new type of scientific journal that both fulfills strict academic criteria, and brings research work closer to practice. Our next issue, JOPP #15 will thus be a "TRANSITION" issue featuring, in addition to peer-reviewed research, experimental formats and "meta" articles. JOPP #15 TRANSITION - Call for Papers We seek investigations into societal transition (how can we move towards a society where contributions to the commons are valued and recognised?), into the journal's editorial transition (how should the Journal of Peer Production change to assist this societal transition), as well as idiosyncratic understandings of scientific and political transitions. JOPP #15 TRANSITION - Peer-reviewed articles + Complement We invite submissions of peer-reviewed academic papers from multiple fields on how "things can change". What are the sociological and historical conditions for transition to occur? For example: what is the impact of manifestos? When is innovation socialised? How can allies be enrolled? etc. Editorial guidelines for peer-reviewed articles: max 8,000 words; peer-reviewed in accordance with the JOPP peer review process See http://peerproduction.net/peer-review/process/ For this TRANSITION issue, academic papers must be complemented by a shorter piece in which the contents of the academic paper are transformed into a different format. The nature of this transformation is up to the authors. We can suggest the following: policy guidelines; practical toolkits; comic-books; etc. Other authors may be enlisted to assist in the article's transition. Editorial guidelines for complementary pieces: max 2,000 words; reviewed by the editors. JOPP #15 TRANSITION - Non peer-reviewed articles We also invite submissions of non-peer reviewed academic papers dealing with transition. These will be reviewed by the editors. A-Follow-up papers Papers "following-up" on previous issues of JOPP, or on specific articles by the authors or others. What has changed since this article was published? B-Policy and strategic papers Papers bringing together academics and policy makers. Strategies for connecting to actors in government and/or civil society. C-Meta papers Papers on the question of impactful academic publishing: how can academics pursue a career and have social impact at the same time? Papers on the transition of research fields: how do research fields evolve to better meet their aims? Rewriting influential papers, or a chapter of a classic book, or revisiting one's own past paper: what has changed? Editorial guidelines for A, B, and C: max 4,000 words. TRANSITION: TIMELINE CFP released 30 June 2020 EOI peer-reviewed articles deadline (500-words max. extended abstract + 100-words max. complementary paper abstract) 30 July 2020 EOI non peer-reviewed articles deadline (250-words max. abstract) 30 July 2020 Authors advised 30 August 2020 First submission sent out for review 30 November 2020 Reviews due 30 January 2021 Revised submissions due 30 March 2021 Signals due 30 May 2021 JOPP # 15 released 30 June 2021 ==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-== *The following is an excerpt from the final chapter of the forthcoming Handbook of Peer Production (Wiley, 2021), “Be Your Own Peer! Principles and Policies for the Commons” (O’Neil, Toupin, Pentzold): The governance of peer produced projects, one of the central aspects of the studies of peer production, aspires to the self-regulation of participants in autonomous collectives. This governance raises the broader issue of political sovereignty. The appeal of self-governance for peer production participants can perhaps be explained by the amount of strategic control most citizens in liberal democracies have over their lives and environment. This control has been drastically reduced by unaccountable global actors – e.g. financial markets, extractive industrial interests, supranational trade agreements, and the list goes on – who influence and constrain the policy options of notionally democratic nation-states. In the early 2020s, racist nativism and authoritarianism are being embraced by some people in reaction to the failures of export-oriented, deregulated, and globalized neoliberalism. A way out of this political crisis is linked to a solution to the environmental crisis: we must head toward more democracy by relocalizing or deglobalizing, and towards more sustainability by degrowing, our economies. As engaged researchers, we believe the Handbook of Peer Production needs to offer a response, however modest, to these political and ecological challenges. Addressing the macro-economic aspects of “deglobalization” would lead us far away from peer production, towards issues which would probably require a Handbook of their own. Accordingly, we focus here on relocalization as it relates to degrowth (décroissance), the downscaling of over-production and over-consumption (Kallis, 2019; Latouche, 2006). In a nutshell: unlimited growth and consumption are not sustainable, so we need more access to free public services, a shorter work week, and a turn towards climate-friendly industries. In this context, Stefania Barca (2019) suggests that the one question that matters is that posed by self-governing workers: “should surplus value be reinvested in production, or not”? Yet since only a handful of firms and industrial sectors are run following so-called “holacratic” (i.e., communal or participatory) principles, degrowth must – in a first stage at least – be deployed in a piecemeal, hybrid manner. In the context of discussing the cooperative sector, Gibson-Graham (2003) suggest that if we perceive economic relations as already plural, then the revolutionary “project of replacement” can be modified into one of “strengthening already existing non-capitalist economic processes and building new non-capitalist enterprises,” of establishing “communal subjects” (p. 157). Several chapters in the Handbook of Peer Production [...] have discussed ways in which this “strengthening” has begun to occur at the municipal level. However, as noted by Adrian Smith (2014) in his account of London’s early-1980s Technology Networks (community-based workshops which provided open access to shared machine tools, technical advice, and prototyping services), a “key lesson from this history is that “radical aspirations invested in workshops, such as democratizing technology, will need to connect to wider social mobilizations capable of bringing about reinforcing political, economic and institutional change” (Smith, 2014, online). In other words, the ecology around peer production must be nurtured. Further, adopting strictly local settings leaves the public policy terrain open to neoliberal and/or reactionary perspectives.

CfP: Digital Sustainability
by Massimo Ragnedda 30 Jun '20

30 Jun '20

CALL FOR PAPERS, Special Thematic Issue on Digital Sustainability, *Digital Policy, Regulation and Governance Emerald* Scholars are invited to submit abstracts for a special issue on the theme Digital Sustainability, guest edited by Dr. Massimo Ragnedda (Northumbria University, UK) and Prof. Dr. Glenn Muschert (Khalifa University of Science & Technology, UAE). Submissions will be peer reviewed and considered for publication in a special issue on the theme commissioned by Emerald Publishing’s peer-reviewed journal *Digital Policy, Regulation and Governance*. SPECIAL ISSUE THEME: The special issue theme is “Digital Sustainability.” The decade of the 2020s is simultaneously the age of digital transformation and the time in which humanity has established a coherent set of sustainability goals to be achieved by 2030, namely the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs). What is less commonly discussed is the role that digital technologies, digital skills, and digital social life will play in the pursuit and maintenance of a sustainable future. This special issue offers a forum for that conversation to develop, as a venue in which social scientists, STS scholars, and other digital scholars can explore the concept of digital sustainability with an eye toward establishing a conceptual framework for defining and theorizing digital sustainability, for studying and assessing digital sustainability, and for plotting out applied methodologies for implementing principles of digital sustainability in real, augmented, and virtual spheres. Thus, this special issue on digital sustainability will open up new scholarly and applied conversations regarding precisely the intersection between digital aspects of human life and wider sustainability concerns for humanity and the planet. The aims of the project are to connect contemporary scholarship in digital sociology with scholarship concerning sustainability, and thereby to carve out a new sub-field for digital sustainability. These goals will be met via the academic investigations assembled in the special issue, as follows: - Establish a concept of digital sustainability, and to define the theoretical and conceptual parameters of the idea. - Map out methodological approaches for the study and assessment of digital sustainability. - Conceptualize how digital sustainability can be enhanced in applied settings. COVERAGE: The special issue on “Digital Sustainability” will include six or seven articles of 5.000 to 7.000 words examining conceptual issues related to digital sustainability. The primary criterion for acceptance is established as scholarly quality and relevance of topic to the special issue theme. Each chapter must engage digital sustainability on a conceptual level, while at the same time advancing issues related to methodologies for study/assessment of digital sustainability and/or practical strategies to enhance digital sustainability. Each article should include some empirical evidence, but must also be linked theoretically to wider debates current in digital sociology, sustainability studies, communications, or related fields. Contributors are encouraged to offer forward-looking perspectives in the form of suggestions for digital sustainability, including how the concepts, associated methodologies, applications, and principles of digital sustainability can be useful in pursuit to sustainability goals. Topics include, but are not limited to: - Theorizing digital sustainability - Measuring digital sustainability - Methodologies for assessment of digital sustainability - Mapping plans to achieve digital sustainability - Exploration of the role of advanced computing in digital sustainability, such as AI, big data, quantum computing, blockchain, cryptocurrency - Exploration of various forms of social reality as aspects of digital sustainability, such as RL, VR, AR, and XR - Exploration of digital sustainability and the human-computer interface(s) - The relevance of digital skills in digital sustainability - The role of digital infrastructure in digital sustainability - E-waste, energy usage, and other ecological concerns - The role(s) of infrastructure, hardware, or software in digital sustainability - The role of formal social institutions (public, private, or NGO) in digital sustainability IMPORTANT DATES: - Abstracts Due *1. August 2020* - Decisions Issued 15. August 2020 - Articles Due 31. October 2020 - Reviews Returned 1. January 2021 - Revisions Due 31. March 2021 - Submit to Publisher 7. May 2021 - Online Publication 30. July 2021 ABSTRACT SUBMISSION GUIDELINES The special issue editors invite colleagues worldwide to prepare extended abstracts for a proposed article contribution. Please submit a one-page proposal to the editorial team via email by 1 August 2020, and kindly contact the editors with questions or for additional information. First drafts of invited articles will be due will be due 1 November 2020, and final manuscripts will be due 1 May 2021. Manuscripts will be limited to 20 manuscript pages (c. 5.000 words), including abstract, references, two-dimensional tables, and figures.
