<br>
<br>The 8th STS Italia Conference will
<br>be hosted by the University of Trieste, Italy, June 18 through 20, 2020,
<br>by the Italian Society of Science and Technology Studies.
<br>
<br>The conference will be an opportunity to present empirical and
<br>theoretical work from a variety of disciplines: sociology, anthropology,
<br>design, economics, history, law, philosophy, psychology and semiotics.
<br>The focal theme of the 8th STS Italia Conference will be "Dis/Entangling
<br>Technoscience: Vulnerability, Responsibility and Justice”. This broad
<br>theme refers to the complex and ambivalent role of technoscience and
<br>innovation in constituting societies – making possibilities flourish,
<br>but also creating new vulnerabilities.
<br>
<br>The conference will include 33 tracks, which are clustered into five
<br>thematic streams. The tracks focus on several topics, including:
<br>biomedicine, digital platforms and media, work and organizations,
<br>expertise and public policy, ethics of technology and innovation, and
<br>governance of science and technology at large.
<br>
<br>Conference’s keynote speakers include: *Amade M’charek* (University of
<br>Amsterdam); *Dimitris Papadopoulos* (University of Nottingham) and *René
<br>von Schomberg* (European Commission)
<br>
<br>*Abstracts (written in English, or in Italian in case of tracks in two
<br>language) should be submitted by February, 9* to the conference email
<br>address (stsitaliaconf@gmail.com ) and
<br>to the emails of convenors' selected track. Track Convenor(s) will be
<br>responsible for reviewing, accepting/rejecting and organising
<br>submissions into their track.
