Digitalization is prevalent in almost every field of life in today’s world. There is no escape from its impacts. But, it is getting increasingly important to investigate its positive and negative aspects to build a digital culture that benefits, rather than hurts and divides societies and people.

We invited authors from different areas to write chapters that contribute to exploring how digitalization affects their field and its consequences.Each chapter in this book seeks to contribute to the conceptual understanding of one or more dimensions of digitalization. It investigates from a multidisciplinary perspective the ‘what’s ‘how’s of digitalization, and tries to understand the advantages and disadvantages of it for society, various institutions, and individual consumer citizens.
