Privacy and Identity in a Networked Society: Refining Privacy Impact Assessment
Dear colleagues, <br> <br>I am happy to announce the following publication (sorry for x-posting): <br> <br>Privacy and Identity in a Networked Society: Refining Privacy Impact <br>Assessment. London/New York: Routledge, 2019. ISBN 978-1-138-32353-7 <br> <br>synopsis below, further information: <br>https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9780429451355 <br>https://www.oeaw.ac.at/ita/publikationen/buecher/privacy-and-identity-in-a-ne <br>tworked-society/ <br> <br>Forwarding this message is of course warmly welcome. <br> <br>Best regards <br>Stefan Strauß <br> <br>This book offers an analysis of privacy impacts resulting from and <br>reinforced by technology and discusses fundamental risks and challenges <br>of protecting privacy in the digital age. <br>Privacy is among the most endangered "species" in our networked society: <br>personal information is processed for various purposes beyond our <br>control. Ultimately, this affects the natural interplay between privacy, <br>personal identity and identification. This book investigates that <br>interplay from a systemic, socio-technical perspective by combining <br>research from the social and computer sciences. It sheds light on the <br>basic functions of privacy, their relation to identity, and how they <br>alter with digital identification practices. The analysis reveals a <br>general privacy control dilemma of (digital) identification shaped by <br>several interrelated socio-political, economic and technical factors. <br>Uncontrolled increases in the identification modalities inherent to <br>digital technology reinforce this dilemma and benefit surveillance <br>practices, thereby complicating the detection of privacy risks and the <br>creation of appropriate safeguards. Easing this problem requires a novel <br>approach to privacy impact assessment (PIA), and this book proposes an <br>alternative PIA framework which, at its core, comprises a basic typology <br>of (personally and technically) identifiable information. This approach <br>contributes to the theoretical and practical understanding of privacy <br>impacts and thus, to the development of more effective protection standards. <br>This book will be of much interest to students and scholars of critical <br>security studies, surveillance studies, computer and information <br>science, science and technology studies, and politics. <br> <br>-- <br>Dr. Stefan Strauß <br>Institute of Technology Assessment (ITA) <br>Austrian Academy of Sciences <br>1030 Wien, Apostelgasse 23 <br>---------------------------------------- <br>Phone: ++43 1 515 81 - 6599 <br>stefan.strauss@oeaw.ac.at <br>http://www.oeaw.ac.at/ita/strauss <br>---------------------------------------- <br>Recently published: <br>-Privacy and Identity in a Networked Society: Refining Privacy Impact <br>Assessment.
