Dear members of the ICTs and Society network,

A new EU COST research network on "Virtual Work" has formed:
http://www.cost.eu/domains_actions/isch/Actions/IS1202
Detailed desription:
http://w3.cost.eu/fileadmin/domain_files/ISCH/Action_IS1202/mou/IS1202-e.pdf

It focuses on the critical study of working conditions that relate to
production and productive consumption in the context of ICTs, the
"digital labour" debate, the political economy of communication labour,
the spatial and global division of communication labour, the global
value chain of ICT production, the gender division of communication
labour, communication labour and class, the sociology of knowledge work,
(paid, unpaid, precarious) work in the creative and cultural industries
and related topics.

The network has already participants from quite some European countries.
There are however a few countries that are eligible to participate, but
from which we do not-yet have management committee members. These
countries are:
Bosnia, Czech Republic, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Serbia, Slovakia,
Turkey, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Egypt, Georgia, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya,
Moldova, Montenegro, Morocco, the Palestinian Authority, Russia, Syria,
Tunisia, Ukraine.

If you live in any of these countries and are interested in the topic
and in becoming a management committee member, then please contact the
Action's Chair
Prof. Ursula Huws, University of Hertfordshire, UK, u.huws at herts.ac.uk
and express/explain your interest in the network.

Best wishes,
Christian Fuchs
(Vice Chair, EU COST Action "Dynamics of Virtual Work")
