Target Audience

Academics and policy-makers

Objectives

IPP2014 will explore the new research frontiers opened up by Crowdsourcing for Politics and Policy. It aims to serve as a forum to encourage discussion across disciplinary boundaries on how to exploit crowdsourcing to inform policy debates and advance social science research. Perspectives are welcomed from across science, social science and the humanities, from the academic and policy-making communities. We aim to identify what is novel in crowdsourcing, and the ways it enables and extends existing social and political processes.

Courses

It will be divided into three tracks: politics, policy, and an intersection/methods track.

IPP2014 is the third in a series of conferences that subject the relationship between the Internet, politics and policy to multi-disciplinary scrutiny, convened by the Oxford Internet Institute (University of Oxford) and OII-edited academic journal Policy and Internet, and supported by the ECPR Standing Group on Internet and Politics. We are grateful for sponsorship from the Policy Studies Organization (PSO).
