About the course

Module 1. Digital Regulation, 7.5 credits.
Digital regulation includes how digitalization in organizations is affected by state and suprastate institutional actors through laws and policies. The course module deals with a Swedish and international perspective on how digitalization is regulated through different forms of expression and approaches, as well as how these are used to deal with issues of privacy, market dominance, freedom of expression, misinformation, and new forms of work. Particular emphasis is placed on the conflicting interests that arise in the regulation of digitalization and how these can be understood through a critical perspective. 

Module 2. Digitalization of Work, 7.5 credits.
The use of digital technologies is creating new working conditions and leading to changes in the workplace. The module examines how new technologies, such as artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, are changing work roles, forms of collaboration and the flexibility of organizations. The focus is on how the digitalization of work can be analyzed and understood in the past, present, and future, with particular emphasis on emerging technologies and their impact on both organizations and individuals. Furthermore, theoretical perspectives relevant to analyzing and understanding questions about the changed nature of work are introduced.
