Public value in the making of automated and datafied welfare futures
Across Europe, the public sector is expanding its efforts to introduce data-driven decision-support and intelligent systems in the administration of welfare. The growing body of research that highlights the impact and harms these systems have on citizens’ lives, raises questions about the guiding ideas, values, and norms that are at the heart of current transformations in welfare. Research in critical data studies contends a silent marketisation …
Semantic Media: Political Economy Perspectives on Platformized Fact Production
Large media platforms are now in the habit of providing facts in their products and representing knowledge to various publics. For example, Google’s Knowledge Graph is a database of facts that Google uses to provide quick answers to publics who use their products, while Wikipedia has a product called Wikidata that similarly stores facts about the world in data formats through which various apps can retrieve the data. Microsoft, Amazon, and IBM us…
Crosscurrents: Welfare
In this crosscurrent contribution, we approach the notion of welfare through the lens of the data welfare state. We, further, suggest that datafied welfare can be fruitfully studied with the capabilities approach to better understand how ideas and values of data welfare intersect with and may allow for the ‘good’ life and human flourishing. The main aim is to highlight the deep-seated changes of the welfare state that emerge with the delegation o…
Algorithmic Profiling of Job Seekers in Austria: How Austerity Politics Are Made Effective
As of 2020, the Public Employment Service Austria (AMS) makes use of algorithmic profiling of job seekers to increase the efficiency of its counseling process and the effectiveness of active labor market programs. Based on a statistical model of job seekers' prospects on the labor market, the system-that has become known as the AMS algorithm-is designed to classify clients of the AMS into three categories: those with high chances to find a job wi…

DigitalSTS: A Field Guide for Science and Technology Studies
Scholars across the humanities, social sciences, and information sciences are grappling with how best to study virtual environments, use computational tools in their research, and engage audiences with their results. Classic work in science and technology studies (STS) has played a central role in how these fields analyze digital technologies, but many of its key examples do not speak to today's computational realities. This groundbreaking collec…
Affektive Materialitäten in Geschlechter-Technikverhältnissen Handlungs- und theorie-politische Implikationen einer antikategorialen Geschlechteranalyse
Durch eine Verknüpfung von Konzepten der queer-feministischen Affect Studies und neu-materialistischen Ansätzen entwickelt dieser Beitrag einen antikategorialen Analysezugang zu Geschlechter-Technikverhältnissen. Dabei werden Prozesse der Verkörperung und Materialisierung sowie Wirkweisen von Affekten in soziotechnischen Praktiken in den Blick genommen. Anhand von empirischen Beispielen zu Motorsägen und der user experience bei der Interaktion mi…
Mind Scripting: A Method for Deconstructive Design
The interventionist turn in science and technology studies (STS) increasingly involves researchers with practices of technology development and thus entails the need for appropriate methodologies. Based in software engineering, this article introduces the deconstructive technique of "mind scripting" as a method for analyzing processes of the co-materialization of gender and technology and as a tool to support cooperative, reflective work practice…
