SCOPE AND TOPICS OF INTEREST

The digital transformation at work in recent years offers new means of communication and exchange and has radically changed the forms of ownership, production, distribution and consumption. It challenges the working conditions, raises new questions and possibilities on taxation, offers extraordinary increases in productivity, opens new horizons for citizen action,… The public, social and cooperative economy is in many ways an actor in this revolution. CIRIEC’s next congress will approach this theme, examining the analyses and discussions of scientific experts and political, economic and social leaders from all over the world.

The CIRIEC Congress will be the occasion to address the following topics:

  • Digital revolution in the service of democracy and the citizen
  • Digital inclusion versus social exclusion
  • Public policy and the issues of the digital revolution
  • Impact on social relations
  • The collaborative economy
  • Public infrastructure for the digitalisation
  • The health sector in the digital revolution
  • The water, gas and electricity sectors and the new benefits of going digital
  • Cities and Local Authorities in the digital revolution (smart cities, e-government,…)
