What are disruptive technologies? How do they affect our political cultures? In what ways can these technologies empower citizens? What regulatory framework would allow for an ethical development of new technologies?
In this TEPSA Explainer in collaboration with the RECLAIM Project, Nikola Schmidt, Senior Researcher at the Institute of International Relations in Prague, explains the threats posed by emerging disruptive technologies.
Quality of information is crucial to the functioning of liberal democracy, and as part of the Horizon-funded "Reclaiming Liberal Democracy in the Post-Factual Age" (RECLAIM) project, a consortium of pan-European analysts and experts are investigating the impact of post-truth politics on liberal democracy in recent years, and looking for ways to mitigate it.
