International Journal of Artificial Intelligence Governance and Human Rights (IJAIGHR)

Forthcoming articles have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication but are pending final changes, are not yet published and may not appear here in their final order of publication until they are assigned to issues. Therefore, the content conforms to our standards but the presentation (e.g. typesetting and proof-reading) is not necessarily up to the Inderscience standard. Additionally, titles, authors, abstracts and keywords may change before publication. Articles will not be published until the final proofs are validated by their authors.

Forthcoming articles must be purchased for the purposes of research, teaching and private study only. These articles can be cited using the expression "in press". For example: Smith, J. (in press). Article Title. Journal Title.

  • AIC-Flow: A Structured Framework for Legal, Ethical, and Lifecycle-Aligned Compliance in High-Risk AI Systems   Order a copy of this article
    by Muhammad Sajid Khan  
    Abstract: Artificial intelligence is increasingly deployed in high-impact domains such as employment, healthcare, and public services, creating new regulatory and governance challenges. Recent regulatory developments now require organizations to demonstrate not only ethical intent but verifiable lifecycle compliance for high-risk AI systems. However, translating legal obligations into operational engineering practice remains a major implementation barrier. This paper proposes AIC-Flow, a lifecycle-based compliance framework that operationalizes regulatory and responsible AI requirements across all stages of AI system development and deployment. AIC-Flow converts governance obligations into measurable tasks and auditable evidence artefacts, enabling compliance-by-design rather than post-hoc documentation. The framework integrates regulatory compliance theory, responsible AI principles, and technology governance models into a unified operational workflow. The applicability of AIC-Flow is demonstrated through a realistic high-risk hiring-system use case, showing how governance, transparency, oversight, documentation, and monitoring can be embedded into standard AI engineering pipelines. AIC-Flow offers a practical and scalable model for building trustworthy and legally compliant AI systems.

  • Social Networks and Cyberspace: Emerging Human Rights Concerns   Order a copy of this article
    by Rajagopal PK, Sreekala K 
    Abstract: This century, the social media has redefined our relationships with space and time, our modes of learning, and our political participation. We have now the means of communications, at different levels of intensity; we have a global human space. But with the digital world come digital challenges: privacy is more difficult to guard, surveillance is on the rise, free speech is being limited in some areas, and not everyone has equal access to technology. While social media is touted as a force for democracy and given users the ability to have a voice, its also employed to commit crimes online, spread misinformation, and violate human rights. With the world populating online by the day, with more authoritarian regulations governing these rights, and with many still left behind due to the digital divide. The article argues that in order to preserve human dignity in the digital age there is need for a cluster of responses that are technologically savvy, legally firm, and ethically resonant.
    Keywords: Cyberspace; Cyber Law; Human Rights; Cybersecurity; Digital Governance.
