This document summarizes research on the structural conditions for citizen deliberation within Barcelona en Comú, a new political party in Barcelona, Spain. The research examines how deliberative spaces are designed within the party, opportunities for citizen participation, and challenges these spaces face. Key findings include tensions between structure and functionality, accessibility and transparency, coordination and hybridity of online and offline spaces, and ensuring outcomes are accountable. The conclusion is that the party presents an experiment in bridging technopolitical movements with traditional institutions, but tensions exist in creating stable spaces for citizen deliberation that are accessible, coordinated, and ensure accountability.
Big data, new epistemologies and paradigm shifts
Big data and new data analytics are transforming research across disciplines by enabling new methods of data generation, collection, and analysis. This allows researchers to ask and answer questions in new ways. While opportunities exist to develop more sophisticated models and insights, there are also concerns about reductionism and losing nuance. In the social sciences and humanities, both opportunities and challenges exist regarding quantitative and qualitative approaches. Overall, while new paradigms may emerge, pluralism in methods and approaches is likely to continue across disciplines.

This document summarizes research into the existence of a public sphere in the Australian .au domain and how technology can reinvigorate political engagement. The research used web crawls and content analysis of online discussions around electoral and environmental issues in Australia. Key findings include the identification of a public sphere populated by civil society organizations, with political discussions online mirroring and impacting offline debates. Issues are discussed individually rather than through collective allegiances, with political identities constructed separately online. The research also examines the opportunities and challenges of digital political participation, including its impact on traditional institutions.
ELPUB 2018 Feminist Open Science workshop
This was the slides for the workshop on Feminist Open Science presented at ELPUB2018 in Toronto. Notes for the session is available here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zr51nZ4VRjVNLixeRc_4SPa-liSALADLTbJ1RUJYcpo/edit
"This workshop will centre on how current discourse around Open Science has tended to focus on the creation of new technological platforms and tools to facilitate sharing and reuse of a wide range of research outputs, but has largely avoided tackling many important issues related to inclusion of a diversity of perspectives in science. We believe a feminist perspective can help to surface these issues, particularly with regard to the need for inclusive infrastructure, which are especially important as Open Science increasingly becomes part of government agendas and policies. We expect that researchers, practitioners and policy makers interested in Open Science will benefit from this workshop to think about issues of inclusivity in Open Science that are not receiving sufficient attention. We expect participants who attend this workshop will gain awareness about relevant resources and work that has been done by feminist technoscience scholars to expand the perspectives of Open Science. We hope that participants will take away new possibilities for their work that they may not have considered before. For policy makers, this workshop will be particularly relevant to help think about how evidence for Open Science should be assessed from a more feminist inclusive standpoint. The workshop will also present results from a two-day workshop on Feminist Open Science that will take place prior to the ELPUB workshop, with the intent of soliciting feedback and collaboration."

The document analyzes how increased electronic interactions between governments and citizens through channels like call centers, online portals, emails, social media, etc. have impacted organizational structures and dynamics in the public administrations of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It finds that while both cities had similar technological and interpretive conditions, their different institutional conditions led to divergent outcomes. Rio's more centralized coordination facilitated networked transformations and integration of citizen data into policies. Meanwhile, São Paulo's decentralized approach enabled pockets of innovation but no overarching e-government strategy. The analysis suggests these approaches can be complementary, with centralized coordination optimizing performance and decentralization allowing innovative network forms to emerge.

Local E-Government in the United States: Transformation
or Incremental Change?
The findings of this article
indicate that e-government has
developed incrementally and
has not been transformative, as
many early writers envisioned.
In this article, the authors address the recent trajectory of
local e-gouernment in the United States and compare it
with the predictions of early e-govemment writings, using
empirical data from two nationwide surveys of e-govern-
ment among American local governments. The authors
findtha: local e-government has not produced the results
that those writings predicted. Instead, its development
has largely been incremental, and local e-government is
mainly about delivering information and services online,
followed by a few transactions and limited inter activity.
Local e-government is also mainly one way, from govern-
ment to citizens, and there is little or no evidence that it
is transjormatiue in any way This disparity between early
predictions and actual results is partly attributable to the
incremental nature of American public administration.
Other reasons include a lack of attention by earl) writers
to the history of information technology in government
and the influence of technological determinism on those
writings.
For much of the past two decades, govern-ments across the globe have been adopt-ing and expanding an innovative means of
delivering government information and services to
citizens (G2C), businesses (G2B), and governments
(G2G). This phenomenon has come to be known as
electronic government or e-government. Today, all
national governments, nearly all subnational govern-
ments, and most local govern-
ments of any size have official
Web sites through which they
deliver information and services
electronically, 24 hours per day,
seven days per week. By almost
any standard, this is an incred-
ible story of technology adop-
tion by governments over a very
short period of time.
As we will discuss in the literature review, in the early
days of e-government, numerous predictions were
made about its development or evolution, many
of which were highly optimistic, suggesting that
e-government would be not only ever expanding but
also ever progressive. E-government, so the claims
went, would improve the effectiveness and efficiency
of government information and service delivery. It
would also lead to an end state that would include
the integration of information and service delivery
both within and among governments, would trans-
form governments themselves, would fundamentally
transform relations between governments and the
governed, and, ultimately, would produce electronic
democracy.
Empirical studies conducted in recent years have
increasingly called into question the validity and accu-
racy of such predictions, suggesting that they were not
informed by relevant prior literature, were te ...
Political Institutions and Online campaigning
The document outlines Nick Anstead's research on explaining the discrepancy in how political institutions in the US and UK have impacted the adoption of the internet by political actors. It analyzes factors like the party system, primary elections, campaign financing laws, and cultural narratives that have led to more online success stories in US politics compared to the UK, where the internet has had little impact. Anstead proposes using an institutional approach and new institutionalism as an analytical framework to address this question.

Jeffrey A. Hart from Indiana University presented a paper at the annual meeting of the International Studies Association in San Diego, California in April 2012. The paper discussed how different international relations theories like realism, liberal institutionalism, and constructivism approach issues related to information and communication technologies (ICTs) and cybersecurity. It argued that theories need to better account for how ICTs impact the diffusion of information, empower non-state actors, and potentially transform power structures and identities. The paper also examined questions around how ICTs influence globalization processes and production networks.

This document discusses Canada's Digital Economy Consultation, which aimed to engage policy communities online around issues of technology and Canadian democracy. It finds that while new technologies theoretically enable more democratic public participation, the consultation saw participation clustered in "online echo chambers" among like-minded groups, with little networking between different stakeholder layers. Most participants only contributed one message, with a few power users responsible for much of the discussion. The forum design did not facilitate deliberation across diverse viewpoints.The Politics of Open Data: Past, Present and Future

Critical Debates in Internet Studies
This document summarizes key debates in internet studies. It discusses the origins and growth of the internet from the 1960s to the 1990s. It then covers two case studies: 1) the shift from viewing the digital divide as an access issue to promoting digital inclusion, and 2) research on how the internet can enhance online political participation and e-democracy. The document also examines what internet studies encompasses as a field and different approaches to critique within internet studies research.
Reprogramming power through crowdsourcing Heikka Draft Oxford 26.9.2014
This document summarizes research into whether crowdsourcing is changing democracy in Finland. The research found that crowdsourcing is producing a new kind of democracy that contrasts with traditional models. A new type of engaged citizen wants results quickly using digital tools and participatory processes, rather than waiting for bureaucratic institutions. However, others see risks in crowdsourcing's faster approach and value democratic stability through existing institutions. The study analyzed interviews with key players to identify positions of either "democratic disruption" or "democratic stability" and concluded that crowdsourcing both complements and puts pressure on representative democracy.

Abstract. Since the 1980s, there has been a growing body of critical theory in
information systems research. A central theoretical foundation of this research is
Habermas’ theory of communicative action, which focuses on implications of
speech and proposes general normative standards for communication. Habermas
also places particular emphasis on the importance of the public sphere in a
democratic society, critiquing the role of the media and other actors in shaping
public discourse. While there has been growing emphasis on critical discourse
analysis (CDA), there has been limited effort to systematically apply Habermas’
validity claims to empirical research. Moreover, while critical research in informa-
tion systems has examined communication within the organizational context,
public discourse on information technology has received little attention. The paper
makes three primary contributions: (1) it responds to Habermas’ call for empirical
research to ground and extend his theory of communication in every day critical
practice; (2) it proposes an approach to applying Habermas’ theory of communi-
cation to CDA; and (3) it extends the reach of critical research in information
systems beyond micro-level organizational concerns and opens up to critical
reflection and debate on the impact of systematically distorted communication
about technology in the public sphere.

Since the early 1980s, there has been a tradition of critical theory research in information
systems (IS) (Mingers, 1980; Lyytinen & Klein, 1985). Much of this research draws its theoretical
foundations from Habermas’ theory of communicative action (TCA), which focuses on implica-
tions of speech and proposes general normative standards for communication (Habermas,
1981/1984; Dahlberg, 2004). While Habermas’ own work places emphasis on the macro-level,
particularly the public sphere, much of the critical IS research has focused on micro-level
analysis of organizational communication and IS development (Hirschheim and Klein, 1994;
Ngwenyama & Lee, .
2009-JCMC-Discussion catalysts-Himelboim and Smith
This study addresses 3 research questions in the context of online political discussions:
What is the distribution of successful topic starting practices, what characterizes the content
of large thread-starting messages, and what is the source of that content? A 6-month
analysis of almost 40,000 authors in 20 political Usenet newsgroups identified authors
who received a disproportionate number of replies. We labeled these authors ‘‘discussion
catalysts.’’ Content analysis revealed that 95 percent of discussion catalysts’ messages
contained content imported from elsewhere on the web, about 2/3 from traditional news
organizations. We conclude that the flow of information from the content creators to the
readers and writers continues to be mediated by a few individuals who act as filters and
amplifiers.
Comparing Media Systems and Political Communications
This document outlines the key concepts and theories for comparative media studies, including Hallin and Mancini's three models of media systems (Liberal, Democratic Corporatist, and Polarized Pluralist), Siebert, Peterson and Schramm's four theories of the press, and the importance and challenges of comparative political communication research. It also provides the required readings and discusses dimensions for analyzing and comparing media systems across countries.
Response slides for hybrid media panel
The document discusses integrating older and newer media in the study of political communication. It summarizes three papers on this topic and raises questions about how they address the changing nature of political communication, the relationship between social media and public opinion, and the role of ideology in hybrid media systems. It questions whether hybridity could lead to more stability over time or if offline powers may still dominate during conflicts, and asks if hybrid media is ultimately good for pluralistic democracy.

This study examined college students’ use of online media for political
purposes in the 2008 election. Social media attention, online expression, and
traditional Internet attention were assessed in relation to political self-efficacy
and situational political involvement. Data from a Web survey of college stu-
dents showed significant positive relationships between attention to traditional
Internet sources and political self-efficacy and situational political involve-
ment. Attention to social media was not significantly related to political
self-efficacy or involvement. Online expression was significantly related to
situational political involvement but not political self-efficacy. Implications
are discussed for political use of online media for young adults.

During the 2006 and 2008 election seasons, new technologies emerged
that enable individuals to participate in media-rich online communities
organized around the creation and exchange of media content (Kolbitsch
& Maurer, 2006; O’Reilly, 2005; Rainie, 2007b; Tapscott & Williams,
2006).1 Such social media were quite popular in the 2008 election
campaign among young adults. For example, young adults used video
sharing and social network sites to obtain campaign information and=
or share campaign news with others, exchange their political views,
and express support for a candidate (Kohut, 2008; Smith & Rainie,

As political actors used social media for their campaign, and young
adults were relying less on traditional news media and more on new
online media for political information (Kohut, 2008), some political
and media observers commented that social media played a significant
role in the 2008 campaign in affecting young voters’ political cognition
and behaviors (Hesseldahl, MacMillan, & Kharif, 2008; Marchese,

Anstead proposes using an institutional approach and new institutionalism as an analytical framework to address this question.

Jeffrey A. Hart from Indiana University presented a paper at the annual meeting of the International Studies Association in San Diego, California in April 2012. The paper discussed how different international relations theories like realism, liberal institutionalism, and constructivism approach issues related to information and communication technologies (ICTs) and cybersecurity. It argued that theories need to better account for how ICTs impact the diffusion of information, empower non-state actors, and potentially transform power structures and identities. The paper also examined questions around how ICTs influence globalization processes and production networks.
Rebecca Schild - Engaging Policy Communities Online?
Rebecca Schild - Engaging Policy Communities Online?Danube University Krems, Centre for E-Governance
This document discusses Canada's Digital Economy Consultation, which aimed to engage policy communities online around issues of technology and Canadian democracy. It finds that while new technologies theoretically enable more democratic public participation, the consultation saw participation clustered in "online echo chambers" among like-minded groups, with little networking between different stakeholder layers. Most participants only contributed one message, with a few power users responsible for much of the discussion. The forum design did not facilitate deliberation across diverse viewpoints.The Politics of Open Data: Past, Present and Future

Critical Debates in Internet Studies
This document summarizes key debates in internet studies. It discusses the origins and growth of the internet from the 1960s to the 1990s. It then covers two case studies: 1) the shift from viewing the digital divide as an access issue to promoting digital inclusion, and 2) research on how the internet can enhance online political participation and e-democracy. The document also examines what internet studies encompasses as a field and different approaches to critique within internet studies research.
Reprogramming power through crowdsourcing Heikka Draft Oxford 26.9.2014
This document summarizes research into whether crowdsourcing is changing democracy in Finland. The research found that crowdsourcing is producing a new kind of democracy that contrasts with traditional models. A new type of engaged citizen wants results quickly using digital tools and participatory processes, rather than waiting for bureaucratic institutions. However, others see risks in crowdsourcing's faster approach and value democratic stability through existing institutions. The study analyzed interviews with key players to identify positions of either "democratic disruption" or "democratic stability" and concluded that crowdsourcing both complements and puts pressure on representative democracy.

Abstract. Since the 1980s, there has been a growing body of critical theory in
information systems research. A central theoretical foundation of this research is
Habermas’ theory of communicative action, which focuses on implications of
speech and proposes general normative standards for communication. Habermas
also places particular emphasis on the importance of the public sphere in a
democratic society, critiquing the role of the media and other actors in shaping
public discourse. While there has been growing emphasis on critical discourse
analysis (CDA), there has been limited effort to systematically apply Habermas’
validity claims to empirical research. Moreover, while critical research in informa-
tion systems has examined communication within the organizational context,
public discourse on information technology has received little attention. The paper
makes three primary contributions: (1) it responds to Habermas’ call for empirical
research to ground and extend his theory of communication in every day critical
practice; (2) it proposes an approach to applying Habermas’ theory of communi-
cation to CDA; and (3) it extends the reach of critical research in information
systems beyond micro-level organizational concerns and opens up to critical
reflection and debate on the impact of systematically distorted communication
about technology in the public sphere.

Since the early 1980s, there has been a tradition of critical theory research in information
systems (IS) (Mingers, 1980; Lyytinen & Klein, 1985). Much of this research draws its theoretical
foundations from Habermas’ theory of communicative action (TCA), which focuses on implica-
tions of speech and proposes general normative standards for communication (Habermas,
1981/1984; Dahlberg, 2004). While Habermas’ own work places emphasis on the macro-level,
particularly the public sphere, much of the critical IS research has focused on micro-level
analysis of organizational communication and IS development (Hirschheim and Klein, 1994;
Ngwenyama & Lee, .
2009-JCMC-Discussion catalysts-Himelboim and Smith
This study addresses 3 research questions in the context of online political discussions:
What is the distribution of successful topic starting practices, what characterizes the content
of large thread-starting messages, and what is the source of that content? A 6-month
analysis of almost 40,000 authors in 20 political Usenet newsgroups identified authors
who received a disproportionate number of replies. We labeled these authors ‘‘discussion
catalysts.’’ Content analysis revealed that 95 percent of discussion catalysts’ messages
contained content imported from elsewhere on the web, about 2/3 from traditional news
organizations. We conclude that the flow of information from the content creators to the
readers and writers continues to be mediated by a few individuals who act as filters and
amplifiers.
Comparing Media Systems and Political Communications
This document outlines the key concepts and theories for comparative media studies, including Hallin and Mancini's three models of media systems (Liberal, Democratic Corporatist, and Polarized Pluralist), Siebert, Peterson and Schramm's four theories of the press, and the importance and challenges of comparative political communication research. It also provides the required readings and discusses dimensions for analyzing and comparing media systems across countries.
Response slides for hybrid media panel
The document discusses integrating older and newer media in the study of political communication. It summarizes three papers on this topic and raises questions about how they address the changing nature of political communication, the relationship between social media and public opinion, and the role of ideology in hybrid media systems. It questions whether hybridity could lead to more stability over time or if offline powers may still dominate during conflicts, and asks if hybrid media is ultimately good for pluralistic democracy.

This study examined college students’ use of online media for political
purposes in the 2008 election. Social media attention, online expression, and
traditional Internet attention were assessed in relation to political self-efficacy
and situational political involvement. Data from a Web survey of college stu-
dents showed significant positive relationships between attention to traditional
Internet sources and political self-efficacy and situational political involve-
ment. Attention to social media was not significantly related to political
self-efficacy or involvement. Online expression was significantly related to
situational political involvement but not political self-efficacy. Implications
are discussed for political use of online media for young adults.

During the 2006 and 2008 election seasons, new technologies emerged
that enable individuals to participate in media-rich online communities
organized around the creation and exchange of media content (Kolbitsch
& Maurer, 2006; O’Reilly, 2005; Rainie, 2007b; Tapscott & Williams,
2006).1 Such social media were quite popular in the 2008 election
campaign among young adults. For example, young adults used video
sharing and social network sites to obtain campaign information and=
or share campaign news with others, exchange their political views,
and express support for a candidate (Kohut, 2008; Smith & Rainie,
2008).
As political actors used social media for their campaign, and young
adults were relying less on traditional news media and more on new
online media for political information (Kohut, 2008), some political
and media observers commented that social media played a significant
role in the 2008 campaign in affecting young voters’ political cognition
and behaviors (Hesseldahl, MacMillan, & Kharif, 2008; Marchese,

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths Forward
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
The cost of acquiring information by natural selection
This is a short talk that I gave at the Banff International Research Station workshop on Modeling and Theory in Population Biology. The idea is to try to understand how the burden of natural selection relates to the amount of information that selection puts into the genome.

EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.

Targeting Hsp90 and its pathogen Orthologs with Tethered Inhibitors as a Diagnostic and Therapeutic Strategy for cancer and infectious diseases with Dr. Timothy Haystead.The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.

What is technopolitics? A conceptual scheme for understanding politics in the digital age
- 2. Internet and Politics • ICTs as isolated external variables • Online vs offline? • Internet = Democracy? • ICTs Government 2.0? • The Question of Power and Legitimacy • Paradigmatic Change in 2008 2 Background of the Topic
- 3. Technopolitics Outline • Context • Actors • Scale • Direction • Synchronization • Purpose
- 4. Technopolitics Literature • “constitutional integrity” (Lebkowski, 1997) • “hybridity” (Hecht, 2001) • contingency and multiplicity of actors (Kellner, 2001) • contesting conceptions of citizenship, rights, and the polity (Hughes, 2006) • the closed vs. the open (Rasmussen, 2007) • power and strategy (Toret et al. 2015) 4 Literature Review
- 7. Context – Contentious Politics • New Digital Media Environment (Chadwick, 2009) • Organizational change (Bimber et. al, 2012) – Resource mobilization – Participation – Collective Action Pattern: networked practices travel from micro level individual behaviours and expectation) to meso level (collective action, campaigning, co-framing) 7 Contentious Politics in post‐2008 context
- 8. Scale Individual => Organization => Contentious Networks The connective logic (Bennett and Segerberg, 2013) – Scale up more quickly – Produce large mobilization – Funding – Flexibility in tracking moving political targets, and bridging different issues – Build up adaptive repertoires, share open source software development, and embrace an ethos of inclusiveness. 8 Scaling Up
- 9. Direction Contentious Politics Moving From Outside to Inside the Institutional Politics Cases: Barcelona En Comu, Ahora Madrid, The Pirate Party in Iceland 9 Direction
- 10. Synchronization Internal • New spaces for activism (Barlow, Echeverría, Castels), including no- places (Augé) • Spaces that are not isolated, but behave as different layers of a same reality (Toret, Monterde) • There are "synchronization" practices across spaces that spread information and enable coordination of action (Corsín & Estalella, Martínez Roldán, Monterde) External • D-Cent Project 10 Synchronization
- 11. Purpose • Short term: take back politics – increasing civic engagement – taking the influence of big money out of politics • Long term: hack the political system – Change the existing processes – Expose its shortcomings 11 Purpose
- 12. Discussion • Synchronize across Europe? • Full Scalability? • A New Constitutional Process? 12 Discussion
