Emerging technologies change the institution of citizenship and reconceptualize membership and belonging. While the scale of this transformation is unknown, new technologies are already blurring the lines between physical and digital, local and global. Law enforcement agencies employ Artificial Intelligence (AI), data mining, and machine learning to create an algorithmic identity that uses online activity to predict “digital citizenship”; genetic advances expand the understanding of ancestry and migration history—which has been labelled “genetic citizenship”; states use AI and big data technologies for “citizenship gamification”; and blockchain undermines the concept of the state and enable the creation of a decentralized “cloud citizenship.”

Increasingly, demands are made of academics to supply knowledge relevant to political processes and actions. At the same time the public is losing trust in science and demanding research that is sensitive to risks as well as inclined towards applied problem-solving.

Cross-border transfer and exchange processes are a regular occurrence at larger multinational companies (MNCs), so that MNCs have meanwhile developed fairly standardised routines and practices in this area. On the other hand, transfer and exchange processes may often be seen within the company as a drastic interruption to "business as usual" when they are connected with plans for reorganisation and expansion on an international scale. Conflicts are especially likely if the company-wide balance of power is at stake. Various groups at manager level and frequently also the various stakeholders (internal and external) of the company are most likely to be involved in these conflicts. Levels of conflict also vary.
