We are a growing online research community! We define emerging technologies broadly to include any technology that involves radical novelty, relatively fast growth, prominent impact, and uncertainty and ambiguity. Some examples of research topics include (but are not limited to) digital surveillance in public and private spheres; cybersecurity and international relations; the ethics and governance of artificial intelligence; automation and the future of work; the governance and regulation of social media platforms; military and civilian uses of emerging technologies; privacy law and policy; biosecurity and the prevention of future pandemics; digital media and the spread of misinformation. We welcome theoretical and empirical works from a variety of political science/public policy subfields and methodological approaches.
The 2022 Politics of Emerging Technologies Mini-Conference, our inaugural mini-conference, took place virtually on September 1, 2022. It featured five panels with 17 presenters. More than 200 individuals registered to attend our event. The program for the mini-conference can be found here.
