Dear all,
The usual apology for cross-posting but this may be of interest to some on the
list.
Call for Papers CPDP2019 – Data Protection and Democracy
CPDP is an annual three-day conference devoted to privacy and data protection.
The 12th edition of CPDP will be held on 30th January to 1st February 2019 in
Brussels. Whilst a number of speakers are specifically invited by the
conference, several slots remain open to application through an annual call
for papers. The CPDP2019 Call for Papers is addressed to all researchers who
wish to present their papers at the next Computers, Privacy and Data
Protection conference.
The call is split into two different tracks. The first is dedicated to
experienced researchers (i.e. from postdoctoral researchers on), while the
second welcomes PhD students and other junior researchers. Contributions are
welcome from all disciplines with perspectives on the themes of the
conference. The dual-track structure of the CPDP2019 Call for Papers aims to
meet the increasing interest of researchers – from all levels and from
multiple disciplines – in CPDP and their expectations in terms of academic
feedback and exchange. Please submit your contribution through the EasyChair
conference system through

The overarching theme of the 2019 edition is “Data Protection and
Democracy”. The entwinement between data analytics and democratic processes
has been on the spotlight for the better part of the past two years.
From political microtargeting through advertising platforms to voting
systems’ security, from external influence over elections to ‘fake news’
and populism, both privacy and data protection have been shown to be
fundamental for a healthy democracy. The GDPR has applied since May 25 and is
expected to change how companies and governments handle personal information.
Will the GDPR serve as a model for a new standard of data privacy around the
world? Will the new data protection and privacy frameworks in Europe and
elsewhere make a difference? Could they be effectively enforced? What is data
protection beyond legislation? CPDP2019 will highlight data protection as a
core element of a democratic society.
We welcome cutting edge papers in all areas related to technology, privacy,
and data protection, but particularly invite submissions that fit the general
conference theme.
The CPDP Scientific Committee invites papers in the fields of law, social
sciences, philosophy and computer sciences (as well as other relevant fields).
Multidisciplinary papers are particularly welcome. In particular, this call
aims to reach researchers whose works relate to new technologies, privacy and
data protection. Selected researchers will have the valuable opportunity to
present their papers in the conference academic sessions. The main theme
highlighted this year is “Data Protection and Democracy”, but we welcome
any original topics related to the general themes of the conference and
especially encourage interdisciplinary submissions.
