Overview

As AI and digital technologies become integrated into modern life, questions of ethics, justice, and governance grow urgent. From algorithmic decision-making that shapes access to resources and opportunities, to data systems that influence social behavior and public policy, AI holds power over individuals and communities. Ensuring this power is used responsibly requires confronting issues of bias, transparency, accountability, and equitable access. In the age of digital societies, building ethical and just governance frameworks is a technical challenge and a societal imperative, one that will determine how fairly and safely new technology is navigated. Ethics, Justice, and Governance in the Age of AI and Digital Societies explores how AI and digital technologies shape ethical norms, social justice, and power structures in modern societies. It examines the governance frameworks needed to ensure fairness, accountability, and responsible use of these evolving systems. This book covers topics such as electronic government, digital technology, and data science, and is a useful resource for engineers, sociologists, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
