SUMMARY:The Higher Research Seminar: Rebecca Adler Nissen\, University of C
 openhagen – ‘Geopolitical Struggles of the Emerging Global Tech Order
 ’
DESCRIPTION:Contact: robert.klemmensen@svet.lu.se\n\nGeopolitical Struggles
  of the Emerging Global Tech OrderThere is a growing sense that digital te
 chnologies require greater international cooperation and even global regul
 ation. At the same time\, rising tension\, especially between the US\, Eur
 ope and China\, is making such cooperation increasingly difficult. Adding 
 to the complication\, these technologies are developed and largely owned b
 y private companies surpassing most states in terms of resources and know-
 how. While these companies often appear unequipped to discuss their own ge
 opolitical role\, their ideas matter for international security\, the glob
 al economy\, democracy and human rights.&nbsp\;This presentation\, drawing
  on my new ERC AdG Grant\, theorizes and explores the emerging global tech
  order: the order constructed by the imaginaries\, global authority config
 urations\, and rule-making efforts that govern and legitimize digital tech
 nology and relationships between states and major technology companies. Sp
 ecifically\, the presentation points to the importance of different and so
 metimes contradictory geopolitical tech imaginaries – geopolitical visio
 ns of the world supported by digital technologies. How do these imaginarie
 s get cultivated within and between tech companies and states\, and how do
  they shape public discourse\, national government positions and the makin
 g of European and global tech regulation?The Higher Research Seminar is he
