About the Article Collection

The Journal of Responsible Innovation invites submissions for its Open Access Article Collection titled "How can Ethical, Legal, and Social Aspects (ELSA) approaches operationalise Responsible AI?"

As Artificial Intelligence (AI) becomes deeply embedded across society, addressing its ethical, legal, and social implications has become increasingly important. This collection explores how Ethical, Legal, and Social Aspects (ELSA) approaches can help translate the principles of Responsible AI into practical governance, innovation, and policymaking.

The collection welcomes theoretical, methodological, and empirical contributions that examine how ELSA research can support stakeholder engagement, anticipatory governance, interdisciplinary collaboration, and responsible AI implementation across diverse sectors.
