DANUBE UNIVERSITY KREMS and the UNIVERSITY OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, VIENNA, AUSTRA are jointly organising
the 4th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON eDEMOCRACY
CALL FOR PAPERS: Scientific eDemocracy vision and models have been developed since the 1960s, but it is now, during the first decade of the 21st Century, that they are becoming reality, being tested and implemented. The new digital generation lives and breathes new values: they collaborate, compile content together, share ideas, create networks on social platforms and organise themselves quickly and simply. The new values held, the new behaviours adopted, the changed mindset, along with improved usability and a still-increasing use of the internet, has led to a rapid and radical change in our society. The EDem10 focuses on these changes which can be seen occurring in different areas and which are manifest in different ways: Transparency & Communication; Participation & Collaboration; Architecture, Concepts & Effects; Different Fields; Approaches and Disciplines; Multidisciplinary and Interdisciplinary Approaches; Research Methods.
The primary aim is to bring together researcher and practitioners. We would like to invite individuals from academic, applied and practitioner backgrounds as well as public administration office, public bodies, NGO/NPOs, education institutions and independent organisation to submit their contribution into one of the 6 categories: Finished Research; Ongoing Research: Finished Projects: Ongoing Projects; Workshops; PhD colloquium submission.
