Abstract The war in Ukraine and Israel's successful operations have demonstrated the apparent shift in military operations, strategic defence spending, and innovations. Drawing parallels to the industrial revolution and how it slowly transferred military procurement, training, and deployment, the current study also highlights the AI revolution and the ...

New Technology and Work: AI and the Coming Struggle to Democratise Work Organisation
ABSTRACT This paper explores AI‐related changes at work and considers the adequacy of our conceptual tools in the light of contemporary advances in AI. These considerations raise the question of whether sociologists of work should engage more in advocating for worker voice in technology decision‐making. Using the concept of work organisation, I draw on

Situating African FinTech in Global Financial Networks
Short Abstract This paper explores the geographical patterns of firm creation and investments in African FinTech and how they have evolved since the emergence of FinTech on the continent. Our findings show waves of investment, specialisation of different FinTech centres and the networks of FinTech capital.
