                Dear all,
<br>
<br>The usual apology for cross-posting but this may be of interest to  
<br>some on the list.
<br>
<br>Call for Papers CPDP2019 – Data Protection and Democracy
<br>
<br>CPDP is an annual three-day conference devoted to privacy and data  
<br>protection. The 12th edition of CPDP will be held on 30th January to  
<br>1st February 2019 in Brussels. Whilst a number of speakers are  
<br>specifically invited by the conference, several slots remain open to  
<br>application through an annual call for papers. The CPDP2019 Call for  
<br>Papers (http://www.cpdpconferences.org/callforpapers.html) is  
<br>addressed to all researchers who wish to present their papers at the  
<br>next Computers, Privacy and Data Protection conference.
<br>
<br>The call is split into two different tracks. The first is dedicated to  
<br>experienced researchers (i.e. from postdoctoral researchers on), while  
<br>the second welcomes PhD students and other junior researchers.  
<br>Contributions are welcome from all disciplines with perspectives on  
<br>the themes of the conference. The dual-track structure of the CPDP2019  
<br>Call for Papers aims to meet the increasing interest of researchers –  
<br>from all levels and from multiple disciplines – in CPDP and their  
<br>expectations in terms of academic feedback and exchange. Please submit  
<br>your contribution through the EasyChair conference system through the  
<br>following link  
<br>(https://easychair.org/account/signin.cgi?key=73277372.15nR1s1leSY2NR8E).
<br>
<br>The overarching theme of the 2019 edition is “Data Protection and  
<br>Democracy”. The entwinement between data analytics and democratic  
<br>processes has been on the spotlight for the better part of the past  
<br>two years.
<br>
<br> From political microtargeting through advertising platforms to voting  
<br>systems’ security, from external influence over elections to ‘fake  
<br>news’ and populism, both privacy and data protection have been shown  
<br>to be fundamental for a healthy democracy. The GDPR has applied since  
<br>May 25 and is expected to change how companies and governments handle  
<br>personal information. Will the GDPR serve as a model for a new  
<br>standard of data privacy around the world? Will the new data  
<br>protection and privacy frameworks in Europe and elsewhere make a  
<br>difference? Could they be effectively enforced? What is data  
<br>protection beyond legislation? CPDP2019 will highlight data protection  
<br>as a core element of a democratic society.
<br>We welcome cutting edge papers in all areas related to technology,  
<br>privacy, and data protection, but particularly invite submissions that  
<br>fit the general conference theme.
<br>
<br>RELEVANT FIELDS AND TOPICS
<br>
<br>The CPDP Scientific Committee invites papers in the fields of law,  
<br>social sciences, philosophy and computer sciences (as well as other  
<br>relevant fields). Multidisciplinary papers are particularly welcome.  
<br>In particular, this call aims to reach researchers whose works relate  
<br>to new technologies, privacy and data protection. Selected researchers  
<br>will have the valuable opportunity to present their papers in the  
<br>conference academic sessions. The main theme highlighted this year is  
<br>“Data Protection and Democracy”, but we welcome any original topics  
<br>related to the general themes of the conference and especially  
<br>encourage interdisciplinary submissions.
<br>

<br>more information about the topics presented at previous editions of  
<br>CPDP.
