The international PhD conference addresses the growing influence of digital platforms on social, economic, cultural, and political processes and norms. The two-day conference will feature multiple panel sessions where doctoral researchers can present and discuss their work and connect with colleagues. We invite early career researchers across disciplines to submit papers on the interplay between platform governance, evolving norms, identities, labor relations, and their impact on inequalities.
