[hossein kermani]

Dear colleague,

 

I hope this message finds you well.

 
I am writing today because Gregory Asmolov (King’s College London) and I are organizing a workshop titled “Multifaceted Dimensions of Digital Authoritarianism”. The call can be found here: https://ecpr.eu/Events/Event/WorkshopDetails/15639 


The workshop will take place within the 2025 ECPR Joint Sessions which will be held at Charles University in late May. The workshop aims to contribute to an in-depth understanding of the rise of new forms of digital authoritarianism by focusing on interdisciplinary comparative research across cases in both the Global South and Global North. It aims to further develop theoretical frameworks that support critical engagement with the role of information and communication technologies in authoritarian regimes. the design of workshop offers the perfect environment to go for a deep dive, beyond the sometimes short-lived discussions we have at conferences.

 

Gregory and I would therefore appreciate your consideration to submit a paper project to the workshop via the ECPR website, the deadline is November 21st. The workshop will take place from 20/05/2025 – 23/05/2025.

 

Please feel free to get in touch with either of us if you have any remaining questions. And also feel free to share this call for papers in your respective networks.

 
Thank you and kind regards.
