Book Presentation: Franco-German Insights into Questions of Digital Sovereignty - Mo., 17.11.: 18.00

Since the mid-2010s, the term “digital sovereignty” has shaped debates worldwide—marking a departure from boundless, techno-deterministic visions of the digital age. In Erlangen, researchers from FAU and the French research group “Geopolitics of the Datasphere” (GEODE) present the international volume Geopolitics of Digital Sovereignty. This work offers a comparative analysis of digital policies in China, India, Russia, the USA, Cuba, and Europe, linking Digital Geography, Political Geography, and perspectives from political science, law, computer science, and economics.

English-language keynote talks by Prof. Dr. Frédérick Douzet (GEODE, France), Prof. Dr. Felix Freiling (FAU Erlangen–Nürnberg), Prof. Dr. Georg Glasze (FAU Erlangen–Nürnberg), Max Münßinger, MA (FAU Erlangen–Nürnberg), and Dr. Louis Pétiniaud (GEODE, France), followed by a panel discussion.
