The symposium is directed towards scholars broadly working with anti-foundationalist perspectives, such as – but not limited to – Discourse Theory, Governmentality Studies, Science and Technology Studies, and Assemblage Thinking.

The contemporary landscape is marked by multiple tensions: recurring democratic crises at various scales (local to global), a crisis in citizens' relationship with information (infodemic, information avoidance, disinformation, and media blackout), the growing influence of digital social networks, media concentration (as seen in France, for instance), the proliferation of mechanisms legitimizing public actors, and the diversification of diplomacy (informal, scientific, soft power) within the realm of information warfare (Colon, 2023).
Dear Colleagues,
We would like to thank all the people who have already submitted their proposals and, following up on the many requests we have received over the past few days, we have decided to extend the deadline for submissions until December 31st!
