3rd Weizenbaum Conference: Democracy in Flux – Order, Dynamics and Voices in Digital Public Spheres
Please register here About the Conference The spread of digital technologies has contributed to a multi-faceted change of democratic orders, actors, and practices. At the intersection of long-term evolution of democracies and the emergence of social media, we observe a profound redistribution of communication and political power. Traditional mass media are losing their privileged position as gatekeepers of the public sphere; social media are establishing new norms of social relevance and simultaneously give voice to ideas, opinions, and actors, which used to be marginalized. This development seems full of ambivalences. Thus, the changing conditions of communication have spawned a situation of democracy in permanent flux. The debate on how digital technologies have changed public spheres and impacted democracy has been scattered across different scientific disciplines, political arenas, and civil society. The 2020/2021 Annual Weizenbaum Conference “Democracy in Flux – Order, Dynamics and Voices in Digital Public Spheres” aims to bring together these various perspectives and seeks to initiate an interdisciplinary exchange on the linkages between digital public spheres and democracy. About the Weizenbaum Institute The Weizenbaum Institute for the Networked Society – The German Internet Institute is a collaborative project from Berlin and Brandenburg funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). Coordinator of the consortium is the Berlin Social Science Center (WZB). The aim is to better understand the dynamics, mechanisms and implications of digitalisation. To this end, the Weizenbaum Institute investigates the ethical, legal, economic and political aspects of digital change. This creates an empirical basis for responsible digitalisation. On the basis of the research findings, action options are developed for government, the economy and civil society, in order to shape the digital transformation in a responsible interdisciplinary manner.

Margit Mayer spricht auf der Podiumsdiskussion "Protest and Policing in the time of the pandemic"
Freedom of expression and assembly are core features of democracy. However, restrictions to rights to liberty have been justified to prevent the spread of serios infectious disease. Regulations during the COVID-19 pandemic have therefore sought to restrict public assemblies. At the same time in 2020 the #BlackLivesMatter movement responded dynamically to police violence. Further significant protests in the UK in 2020 included protest events of Extinction Rebellion and protests over government response to the pandemic. The Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill 2021 responds to these protest events and has immediately resulted in further protests. At the same time, Northern Ireland is experiencing a return to violent protest. This panel brings together a group of experts who are reflecting on protest and policing in the times of the pandemic. Speakers will discuss continuities and discontinuities, as well as the future of protest, how it is policed and how protest responds to policing.

Curd Knüpfer spricht über "Fake news - no more? Disinformation and Fact-Checking in US Media"
The spread of disinformation has increased significantly over the past years, and so have its countermeasures: among them fact-checking. While the phenomenon of disinformation is often linked to specific events or media formats, it is a long-term development, with underlying structural forces that have shaped the US media system for years: resulting in an increasing segmentation of audiences, a fragmentation of the media landscape, and today’s highly polarized US society. While all of this poses a severe challenge to traditional journalism, “fact-checking” has emerged as an effective weapon to counter disinformation. Together with our experts, we will discuss this development from a journalistic and an academic perspective – with a focus on the US, but through a transatlantic lens.

Promotionsbetreuung mit Erfolg
Gute Betreuung ist wesentlicher Erfolgsfaktor im Promotionsprozess. Den Enthusiasmus und die Energie der Promovierenden bis zur erfolgreichen Abgabe der Arbeit zu unterstützen, ist eine Aufgabe, die viel Zeit kostet. Gleichzeitig bietet sie die Chance, die eigenen Erfahrungen zu reflektieren und zu teilen. Eine produktive Betreuungsbeziehung kann für beide Seiten gewinnbringend sein: Für die Doktorandin oder den Doktoranden, die zur wissenschaftlichen Eigenständigkeit gelangen, aber auch für die Betreuerin oder den Betreuer, die neue Kolleg*innen gewinnt und fördert. Aber was heißt gute Betreuung? Auch wenn es viele Leitfäden und Empfehlungen existieren, sind am Betreuungsprozess stets Individuen beteiligt, mit ihren persönlichen Stärken und Schwächen. Im Dialog zu bleiben bildet daher die Grundlage für eine gelungene Betreuungsbeziehung
