The project

Titre: Study on the impact and political effects of computer science and artificial intelligence

In our current research, we are focusing on the 'reinterpretation' of certain currents and authors who stand out for their paradoxical influence, having left their mark on the history of ideas in a 'subterranean' or diffuse way, given that their works lie on the bangs of dominant intellectual trends. However, our work is not about the history of ideas, but about assessing how these authors can contribute to our understanding of the contemporary world. This research objective explains the heterodox approach we take to revisiting the history of political philosophy.
