Social Bias in AI
This research examines the social dynamics underpinning algorithmic bias, proposing a framework for addressing these issues through the lens of algorithmic political capitalism. We explore how socio-technical-ecological relations of power often reproduce harmful algorithmic effects, including social bias, data exploitation in the knowledge economy, prejudiced predictions, and unexamined user biases that obscure power asymmetries and harm society.…
Data Free Flow with Trust”
A powerful regime for regulating trade, the Group of Seven (G-7) has increasingly negotiated its digital trade through bilateral and preferential trade agreements, including with non-member states in the Global South. Focusing on the dominant concept shaping these agreements, Japan's "Data Free Flow with Trust" (D.F.F.T.), we trace its discursively contested emergence and meaning within a national ("Society 5.0") vision for Japan's digital transf…
The Colonialism of Human Rights
The strength of civic ties
The complex relationship between professional success and civic engagement among educated immigrant professionals is little understood. This qualitative study examines the social processes linking professional attainment and civic involvement among immigrant professionals, with the purpose to deepen understanding of the mechanisms through which civic participation is tied to occupational pathways and advancement. We report on findings from interv…

Overcoming Global Inequalities
Smart Humanitarianism
A paradigmatic shift around the central role of 'social entrepreneurs' is captivating a broad, diverse range of social actors refashioning the institutional landscape of human rights and humanitarian practices. For this special issue dedicated to 'Re-imagining Human Rights', we explore some of the implications of these revolutionary changes in human rights practices, and their consequences for sociological study and political critique in the 21st…
Smart Transitions
Smart Transitions? Foreign Investment, Disruptive Technology, and Democratic Reform in Myanmar Since 2012, Myanmar has transformed from a “pariah state” and one of the world’s least attractive business climates to a “frontier economy” transitioning to a democratic form of government and attracting foreign direct investment from around the world. Driving this new investment is a transnational vision of economic development that seeks to transform …
Free Burma
When the military’s ruling party violently quashed Burma’s pro-democracy movement, diplomatic condemnation quickly followed—to little effect. But when Burma’s activists began linking the movement to others around the world, the result was dramatically different. This book explains how Burma’s pro-democracy movement became a transnational social movement for human rights. Using the experience of the Free Burma movement, this book demonstrates how …
Poverty and Power
The Practice of Human Rights
Human rights are now the dominant approach to social justice globally. But how do human rights work? What do they do? Drawing on anthropological studies of human rights work from around the world, this book examines human rights in practice. It shows how groups and organizations mobilize human rights language in a variety of local settings, often differently from those imagined by human rights law itself. The case studies reveal the contradiction…
