International workshop: Political Philosophy of Technologies

Please join us for a workshop on political philosophy of technology on June 15, 12:00 CET. 

The centrepiece of the workshop is a keynote address by Professor Mathias Risse, whose book Political Theory of the Digital Age: Where Artificial Intelligence Might Take Us offers one of the most foundational contributions to this conversation. Risse’s work provides rich frameworks for understanding how emerging technologies may reshape political structures, rights, and governance, and his keynote will open the day of scholarly discussion. Participants will have the opportunity to interrogate and expand on his arguments, bringing together scholars with a shared interest in the political and ethical dimensions of technology.

Keynote title: Political Theory of the Digital Age: Where Artificial Intelligence Might Take US 

Prof. Mathias Risse

Abstract: This talk will offer reflections on what kind of questions come up for political theory in the digital age – new questions or perhaps old questions in new forms. Thereby the talk is simultaneously also a reflection on my 2023 book that was actually called “Political Theory of the Digital Age: Where Artificial Intelligence Might Take Us,” and explores how well that book has aged in this period given the breathtaking pace of change in this field. 

The workshop is designed to be fully hybrid, allowing in-person and online participation.
