*Call for Abstracts – “Power, Politics and Digital Development” panel*
UK Development Studies Association conference, 12-14 Sep 2016, 
University of Oxford, UK
This is a call for abstracts/presentations on power, politics and 
digital development, with an initial deadline of 25 April 2016.
The panel will cover the broad intersection of power, politics and 
digital development including both directionalities – the impact of 
power and politics on design, diffusion, implementation and outcomes of 
ICT application; and the impact of ICT application on power and politics 
– and their mutual interaction.
We welcome work anywhere along the spectrum from the micro-exercise of 
power within individual ICT4D initiatives through the politics of 
national ICT-using organisations and institutions to global Internet 
governance. Other topics for papers might include but are not limited to:
- The organisational politics of ICT4D
- Digital resources as foundations of power in development
- Reproduction and transformation of power and inequality through 
digital development
- Digital development discourse as a source and reflection of power
- The institutional logics that conflict and contest to shape digital 
development
- How national and international ICT policies address and express issues 
of power
The following timeline will be observed:
- 25 April 2016 - prospective presenters to submit a “paper proposal” 
(title, author names & emails, short abstract of <300 characters; long 
abstract of <250 words) via the _conference online form_
