Fernando Haddad

Cette année lors d'une grande conférence à Sciences Po, Fernando Haddad, ministre des Finances du Brésil, Laurence Tubiana, directrice de European Climate Foundation, et Pierre Charbonnier, chercheur au CEE - Centre d'études européennes et de politique comparée, ont échangé avec nos étudiants sur les voies d’une transition écologique juste et les défis du multilatéralisme. 10 ans après l’Accord de Paris, à un moment où le monde est en pleine mutation, cette discussion sur la coopération, la gouvernance mondiale et la justice sociale est plus que jamais essentielle. Comme l’a souligné Fernando Haddad : “Nous assistons à un véritable tournant dans le rôle et le positionnement global de l'Amérique latine et de l'Europe. C'est dans ce contexte que le Brésil se prépare à accueillir la #COP30.” 💡 Une relation politique et une relation écologique, au fond ce sont les deux faces d'une même relation, que nous devons restaurer, cultiver, comprendre.

Algorithms Recommendations on Social Media and Political Positions, with Tim Faverjon

How recommendation algorithms operate on social media to establish relationships with the political positions of users? In order to answer this question, Tim Faverjon designed various models and analysed their predictions, specifically focusing on political attitudes and socio-demographic characteristics. He emphasises the importance of looking inside the algorithms rather than just observing their outcomes to understand their influence on users. Tim Faverjon, PhD candidate at the médialab, data science engineer and mathematician, carries out his research at the interface between machine learning and sociology. His current research focuses on recommendation algorithms and politics: what do algorithms “know” about user ideology? How is this information used? What impact on the digital public debate?

Identity versus Democracy, with Yascha Mounk

Over the last decades, identity is rising as a new ideology influenced by postmodernism, postcolonialism, and critical race theory. While acknowledging the value of recognising and respecting diverse identities, Yascha Mounk invites us to be vigilant about the potential pitfalls of rigidly defining individuals solely based on their identity groups. It is crucial to strike a balance between celebrating cultural diversity and avoiding essentialism that may inadvertently leads to exclusion and division, threatening democracy. Yascha Mounk is professor of the Practice of International Affairs at Johns Hopkins University, a contributing Editor at The Atlantic, a Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, and a Moynihan Public Scholar at City College. Next spring he will be an Associate Professor at Sciences Po’s School of International Affairs.

Why Diverse Democracies Fall Apart and How They Can Endure, Penguin Press (2022) The People vs. Democracy: Why Our Freedom is in Danger and How to Save It, Harvard University Press (2018) Recorded on 24th November 2023 Conversations with Sergei GURIEV is a podcast by Sciences Po.
