The theme of this year will be "How Information Technologies Change Europe". Сonsideration will be focused on changes in social and political life in Europe, which are observed as a result of information technology and have a long-term significance. Autumn Meetings 2018 will be devoted to the following topics:
- How is work changing in Europe: the organization of labor, jobs and time, new professions and the adaptation of education,
- How are the European media changing: traditional and social media, "post-truth" and fake news, virtual public sphere, new transparency and the right to information,
- How are European policies and states changing: new forms of political communication, e-government, e-democracy, election campaigns, political control over people, protection of personal data or transparency
- How is European activism changing: political mobilization and its control, crowdfunding and crowdsourcing, volunteering, working with open data, activism in the field of information technology, freedom of opinion or extremism.
