Integrating Organizational and Social Network Theories to Mitigate Racial Bias in Facial Recognition Technology
Abstract
Facial recognition technology (FRT), though a powerful tool for identification and surveillance, consistently demonstrates racial bias, disproportionately misidentifying individuals of color. This chapter integrates organizational and social network theories to address these biases. Drawing on theories such as Equity Theory, General Adaptation Syndrome, Minority Stress Model, and Terror Management Theory, it explores the psychological, social, and ethical effects on marginalized communities. Procedural Justice Theory, Stakeholder Theory, and Technological Determinism highlight how organizational practices contribute to bias, while Ethics of Care and Distributive Justice emphasize the responsibility to design fair systems. The chapter calls for comprehensive reforms in FRT development, focusing on fairness, equity, and the well-being of all stakeholders.
