Moreover, many of them has fallen in <br>the temptation of building (buying) mass surveillance systems to better <br>control their citizens without having a real control over the technology <br>they are using. <br> <br>This open panel aims to bring together scholars from different parts of <br>the world to discuss the paths and approach governments from south and <br>north are following in the adoption of big data technologies, their uses <br>and misuses. <br> <br>*Keywords:* <br> <br>big data, peripheral states, data leaks, surveillance systems, privacy <br> <br>*Categories: * <br> <br>Big Data, Governance and Public Policy, Engineering and Infrastructure <br> <br>Abstracts up to *250 words* can be submitted directly through the <br>*4S/EASST website* <br>(https://convention2.allacademic.com/one/ssss/prague20/) <br> <br> <br> <br> Deadline *February 29, 2020* <br> <br>We look forward to your proposals, <br> <br>*Convenors:* <br> <br>María Belén Albornoz (FLACSO - Latin American Social Studies Faculty) // <br> <br>Henry Chavez (PUCE - Pontificia Universidad Católica del Ecuador*)** <br>* <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>_______________________________________________ <br>EASST's Eurograd mailing list <br>Eurograd (at) lists.easst.net <br>Unsubscribe or edit subscription options: http://lists.easst.net/listinfo.cgi/eurograd-easst.net <br> <br>Meet us via https://twitter.com/STSeasst <br> <br>Report abuses of this list to Eurograd-owner@lists.easst.netview formatted text
