Deadline for submissions: 31/12/2024
Both methodological and applied contributions exploring the role of statistics, data science, computational sciences, and social sciences in addressing the challenges and opportunities of the “data revolution” in social research will be appreciated. The conference focuses on the emergence of new data sources and their potential to advance understanding in areas such as sustainable development, social inequalities, public health, communication, and Futures Studies.
The conference welcomes interdisciplinary perspectives, including sociology, to address the transformative potential of new data sources in understanding complex social phenomena. Submissions that integrate advanced quantitative or computational methods with sociological theory are strongly encouraged, as well as those that use new data sources to deepen insights into social behavior, institutions, and change. Contributions addressing both qualitative and quantitative aspects of new data sources, their origins, and integration, along with ethical considerations and the training of new professionals in Social Data Science, will be particularly welcome.
