About this Event
Much has been written about how digital technology and AI are altering how diplomats communicate and reconfiguring diplomatic relations. Concern has mostly centred on how diplomacy’s legacy institutions might adapt or be updated. This lecture lays emphasis elsewhere: arguing not for the making digital of diplomacy so much as the making diplomatic of conflicts arising from global digitalization. It will seek to show the potential value of framing human-nonhuman relations as diplomatic problems and thinking these in combination with other dilemmas of human-nonhuman interface in the Anthropocene, drawing upon recent work on “diplomacy” in the humanities.
The lecture will be followed by Q&A and a reception.
