Call for Papers | Housing, Technology and the Law

Guest Editors: Tegan Cohen and Lina Przhedetsky 

Data, artificial intelligence (AI) and digital platforms are reshaping how housing is financed, built, used, managed, regulated, and accessed in Australia. From automated planning approvals to the use of robots in the construction industry, property technology (‘PropTech’) is often touted as a means of tackling Australia's chronic housing shortages. Advocates promise greater efficiency, increased transparency and reduced costs, while critical scholarship highlights how datafication, automation and platformisation can exacerbate and create new vulnerabilities in the housing system.

The deadline for submissions is 30 June 2026, with publication expected in April 2027.

Potential contributors are welcome to contact Tegan Cohen (tegan.cohen@qut.edu.au) and Lina Przhedetsky (lina.przhedetsky@unimelb.edu.au) with queries related to this call for submissions. Please contact the Journal for all other queries lawtechhum@qut.edu.au
