Migration, Culture, and Inequalities in Algorithmically Mediated Societies (Dissertation)

Carolina Coimbra Vieira, Emilio Zagheni, Krishna Gummadi (Max Planck Institute for Software Systems, Saarbrücken, Deutschland); in Zusammenarbeit mit Diego Alburez-Gutierrez, Marília R. Nepomuceno, Tom Theile, Asli Ebru Sanlitürk (alle: MPIDR), Abhisek Dash, Sepehr Mousavi (beide: Max Planck Institute for Software Systems, Saarbrücken, Deutschland), Sophie Lohmann (MPIDR), Savvas Zannettou (Delft University of Technology, Niederlande), Oshrat Ayalon (University of Haifa, Israel), Fabrício Benevenuto, Marisa Vasconcelos, Pedro Olmo Stancioli Vaz de Melo (alle: Federal University of Minas Gerais, Belo Horizonte, Brasilien), Filipe Nunes Ribeiro (Federal University of Ouro Preto, Minas Gerais, Brasilien)

The project showcases the value of using digital trace data when traditional data are scarce, and of using social media data to study cross-country cultural similarity, migration patterns, and information-seeking behavior during crises, as well as gender and social inequalities.  Ausführliche Beschreibung
