This interdisciplinary course is focused on the intersection of technology, politics, and society. Structured into five thematic blocks, it moves from theoretical foundations to practical case studies, following the principle of combining one scientific issue with one practical case—such as Arctic anthropology with data centers expeditions, or AI in art with digital repatriation. Students will explore technology as an issue, instrument, infrastructure, and imaginary, analyzing core conflicts like secrecy vs. security, tech transfer vs. data colonialism, and multistakeholderism vs. national regulation. The methodology blends philosophical frameworks with hands-on research instruments, including digital ethnography, reading with/without AI, and data analysis with tools like LDA. The final outcomes require students to analyse one issue, read a book, and engage in practical research, focusing on how technologies work—or fail—in real-world Eurasian contexts.
