Digital Autonomy with Julia Pohle

What does ‘digital autonomy’ mean? Are we even using the right terminology here? And what role does digital civil society play in shaping autonomous digital infrastructures? Episode 2 of our ‘re:publicast Special’ addresses these questions. 

Markus Beckedahl talks to Julia Pohle about this. She heads the ‘Politics of Digitalisation’ research group at the Berlin Social Science Centre (WZB). In her work, she examines the interplay between technology, politics, social norms and power relations.

The conversation focuses on the various dimensions of digital autonomy, political strategies and the question of what lessons need to be learned from past failures.
