La nouvelle est officiellement tombée vendredi. Le professeur Nicolas Vermeys sera le 01 juin 2022 le prochain directeur du CRDP. En effet, suite à une présentation devant un comité multi-universitaire et après une validation du Comité exécutif de l’Université de Montréal dans la mesure où les nouveaux statuts restent à être confirmés, sa candidature fut retenue au grand bonheur de chacun d’entre nous. Nicolas était en effet la personne toute désignée pour ce faire.

As part of our SET project, HIIG invites applicants from different academic backgrounds (economics, law, political science and related fields) to participate in a research sprint on the topic of " Sustainable Digital Economies".
The post Research sprint: “Sustainable digital economies” appeared first on HIIG.

The DMRC’s Dr T.J. Thomson was one of two dozen academics announced in April as members of the 2022 fellowship class of the PhDigital Bootcamp, delivered by Texas State University and sponsored by the Knight Foundation.

Last week, Portulans Institute President Soumitra Dutta had the opportunity to interview Sherif Kamel, Dean of The American University in Cairo School of Business, which is a member of PI’s Academic Network. The interview, linked below, highlights his new book Leading Change in Challenging Times: Lessons of Disruption and Innovation from Egypt: Thoughts, Observations, and Reflections.

The 3th of April was the day when all of the world had seen the photos, videos and witnesses of the massacre by russian murderers in Bucha. My social networks accounts were full of “sensitive content” that day, the hashtags #bucha and #buchamassacre blocked by platforms because of extreme violence imprinted in these pictures: tortured people with hands tied behind their back, bodies of citizens lying down on the streets, some of them were killed while riding a bicycle, some with proviant they were carrying home. Raped women and children. Shot animals.

Sowt and the Wikimedia Foundation, have partnered  to produce a new season of Sowt’s podcast Manbet. Hosted and written by veteran content creator Bisher Najjar, the educational podcast explores various topics from the fields of humanities and society.

We are very happy to announce that QUT has retained it’s number 1 ranking in Australia and has improved one spot to 15 overall worldwide in the QS World University Rankings for Communication and Media Studies 2022.
Congratulations to the School of Communication and the Digital Media Research Centre and everyone who has been involved in achieving this amazing result.

La notion d’abolition, populaire dans les années 1970, suscite un regain d’intérêt. Portée par des mouvements comme Black Lives Matter et par des éditeurs engagés qui y voient un vecteur des luttes intersectorielles, l’abolition, et plus largement la pensée abolitionniste, fait l’objet de travaux et de publications cherchant à souligner comment les sociétés occidentales et leurs institutions reconduisent inlassablement un schème punitif.

This post is about what I consider one of the hardest questions, particularly under laws that create special data-access regimes for researchers. What data are platforms supposed to share, and what personal information will it disclose about Internet users? This question pits privacy goals against data-access and research goals. A strongly pro-privacy answer will curtail research into questions of great public importance. A strongly pro-research answer will limit users’ privacy rights. In between lie a lot of difficult calls and complex trade-offs.
