Carlos Saura
Predoctoral researcher in the research staff training program at Universidad Jaume I of Castellón (Spain). Graduated in Economics in 2019 from Universidad Jaume I (Academic Excellence Award GV). In 2020, he completed the Interuniversity Master’s Degree in Ethics and Democracy at Universidad Jaume I and Universidad de Valencia with the Master’s Thesis “La vigilancia en la democracia monitorizada. La irrupción del big data” (Extraordinary Master’s Degree Award).
His research focuses on the study of the effects of big data technologies on society, particularly delving into three areas: ethical challenges of hyperconnectivity, datafication and algorithmization, implications of the GAMAM (Google, Amazon, Meta, Apple, and Microsoft) in the treatment and use of massive data, and ethical implications of using massive data in democratic contests and democratic systems (mass democracy).
