*Call for Papers: Digitizing Valuation* A Theme Issue of Valuation Studies https://valuationstudies.liu.se/Theme_Call_Digitizing_Valuation What happens when we “digitize” practices of valuation and what are the implications? What are the opportunities and limits of existing analytic tools for understanding new forms of digital valuation? What vistas and perspectives do emerge for research into valuation? This theme issue of *Valuation Studies* will explore novel, cross-cutting approaches to problematizing, analyzing, and examining the intersection of digitization and valuation in contemporary societies.
