The Data Power Conference hosts critical reflections on data’s power and 
the social, political, economic and cultural consequences of data’s 
increasing presence in our lives, workplaces, and societies. The most 
recent conference in 2019 focused on the specific theme of global 
in/security. The 4^th Data Power Conference, in June 2022, returns to 
some of the fundamental questions that underpinned the founding of the 
conference. It is conceived as a series of dialogues, dialogues 
/about/ overarching concerns and /with/ disciplines and stakeholders 
working with and on data. In particular, the conference will reflect on:

  * How can stakeholders be engaged in critical conversations about data
    power?
  * What constitute rigorous methods when it comes to researching data
    power?
  * To what extent does critical data power research need to focus on
    specific instances of data power in action? What contributions can
    more generalised critiques make to our field?

To facilitate dialogues across disciplines and with stakeholders, we 
welcome papers, panels and roundtable dialogues from interdisciplinary 
teams including disciplines incorporating aspects of data science, and 
papers which incorporate non-academic collaborators from a range of sectors.

As always, the Data Power Conference remains concerned with 
in/equalities, discrimination, questions of justice, rights and 
freedoms, and agency and resistance. We welcome papers, panels and 
roundtable dialogues that engage with these matters.

There will be a keynote speaker on each of the three conference days, 
details to be confirmed.
