5 June 2009
London School of Economics and Political Science, UK

New technologies for the control and management of identity are being developed and introduced daily by public administrations and online businesses; technologies which are designed to alter the way that citizens and consumers interact with these bodies. New notions of identity are being made possible by technological innovation.

The Second Multidisciplinary Workshop on Identity in the Information Society will explore the ways in which identity and technology are mutually shaping each other and provide an opportunity to present leading edge research, exchange ideas, encourage collaboration, and build communities across the various research groups working on contemporary identity topics and in related fields of privacy and security.
