AI, Emerging Technologies, and the Future of Political Science: Algorithms of Power - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

The rapid acceleration of artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies is reshaping the foundations of political science and international relations. What began as the digitization of information governance has evolved into a complex technological ecosystem in which data, algorithms, autonomous systems, and digital infrastructures increasingly structure how power is produced, exercised, and contested among states and non-state actors. These developments generate new forms of political and economic advantage, yet they also introduce systemic risks, such as algorithmic bias, accountability gaps, and deepening technological asymmetries across the international system. As geopolitical competition intensifies and existing governance frameworks struggle to keep pace with the scope and speed of technological change, political science and international relations scholarship face an urgent need to reconsider their core concepts, theoretical approaches, and policy tools. AI, Emerging Technologies, and the Future of Political Science: Algorithms of Power advances theoretical understanding of how AI and emerging technologies are reshaping power in global politics, examines the strategic, institutional, and normative consequences of technological acceleration for political science and international relations, and assesses pathways for governance, cooperation, and risk mitigation in an increasingly technology-driven international system. By bringing together interdisciplinary perspectives, it advances debates in political science and international relations while contributing to a deeper understanding of how AI, algorithms, data, and emerging technologies are transforming power and governance in global politics. Covering topics such as autonomous weapons systems, digital authoritarianism, and surveillance capitalism, this book is an excellent resource for academicians, researchers, policymakers, government officials, policy analysts, technology leaders, industry stakeholders, and more.
