Social Issue:

Social issues in organizations represents one of the most often discussed underpinnings in

information systems research throughout the tenure of the IS field. Social issues are those

research topics most aligned with the human factor in terms of information systems planning,

development and utilization of information systems and technologies.

Social Issue:

This mini-track would include all aspects of social issues that are impacted by information technology affecting organizations and inter-

organizational structures. Specifically, the conceptualization of specific social issues and their associated constructs, proposed designs

and infrastructures, empirical validation of social models, and case studies illustrating socialization success and failures would be

central to this mini-track.


5

Some Key Topic may Include: Ethics Culture Relationships Human interaction Security Design


6

Some of the research topics that would fit within this mini-track include:

Ethical issues:Intellectual property rights,

electronic monitoring of employees, data utilization, and morality in

information systems usage.


7

Cultural issues:

Assimilation of emerging technologies, developing trust,

power asymmetry, policy implementation, and social

Utilization- Stability - Influence Presence - Change - Support

Collaboration - Cohesiveness - ParticipationConsent - Creativity - Understanding

Distributed projects , Process changes , Soft-side development , Modeling

techniques , Social network knowledge Who need it?In what form?At what time?

Where is its disposal?At what cost?

Design issues:

Issues with USE:

Social issues regarding to IS uses depend upon the society it-self. Like if the whole society or the maximum

people are well aware with the use of Information Systems then there will be minimum issues with the

usage or we can say that the society will handle it very calmly and will progress a lot. But if the society doesn’t know much about IS then there will be lots of issues like

hacking, slow speed, loss of data, shipment misplacement. These issues are with the society not with the IS itself cause IS is developed under highly trained and professional teams of programmers.


14

Which consist upon programmers, analyst, managers and employees, all the issues are with the society like are with those customers, users who don’t know much about the system that if there is the TPS they don’t know how to place

order or they don’t know how to buy and pay so then the IS will be crap nothing more to those.

Mostly issues caused with usage are,Hacking, slowness,

Misplacement of orders,Problem with response,
