Digital Lives Programme seminar with Dr Dimitri Van Den Meerssche
About the Presenter
Dr Dimitri Van Den Meerssche is a Senior Lecturer in Law and IHSS Fellow. His current research studies the impact of new digital technologies on global security governance, with a focus on counterterrorism and border control. He is interested in the forms of inequality and exclusion enacted by practices of algorithmic governance, and how these practices impact political subjectivity and the prospects of collective action. Recent writing focused the inequalities enacted at the virtual border, the phantom publics and value systems of algorithmic governance, and the subject of critique in international law and technology. This work is inspired by critical security studies, feminist technoscience, infrastructure and design theory, and critical black studies.
