The dissertation explores this theme in three domains: decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), metaverse development, and the construction of self-sovereign identity (SSI) models. Respectively, the included papers investigate the distribution of voting rights in DAOs, offer a typology and philosophical insights related to the development of metaverses, and delve into the construction of SSI in the public sector. Ultimately, the dissertation highlights the value of studying politics and power in IS, allowing for a deeper understanding of their implementation and consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"py-0 wp-block-unilux-blocks-free-section section\"><div class=\"container xl:max-w-screen-xl\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-custom-buttons btn-list\"><li class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-custom-button\"    aria-disabled=\"false\"\n    >\n    <a\n        role=\"link\"\n        aria-disabled=\"false\"\n                    href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/snt-en\/events\/phd-defence-politics-power-and-information-systems\/calendar\"\n                target=\"_self\"\n        class=\"btn btn--primary\"\n            >Add to Calendar<\/a>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":291,"featured_media":4084,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_image_focal_point":[],"show_featured_caption":false,"ulux_newsletter_groups":"","uluxPostTitle":"","uluxPrePostTitle":"","_trash_the_other_posts":false,"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"event_start_date":"2023-11-17 13:00:00","event_end_date":"2023-11-17 15:00:00","event_speaker_name":"","event_speaker_link":"","event_is_online":false,"event_location":"JFK Building\/Room E004\/E005 (Nancy\/Metz)","event_street":"","event_location_link":"","event_zip_code":"L-1855","event_city":"Kirchberg","event_country":"Luxembourg"},"events-topic":[297],"events-type":[320],"organisation":[26,184],"authorship":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.3 (Yoast SEO v22.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Doctoral defence: Politics, Power, and Information Systems<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"About this eventYou are cordially invited to attend the Doctoral defence of Tom Josua BARBEREAU&nbsp;on&nbsp;17 November&nbsp;2023&nbsp;at&nbsp;13.00.
