Successful workshop 'Reconsidering Humanity'

On the 12th-13th of September, the workshop “Reconsidering Humanity: Big Data, the Scientific Method, and Images of Humans and Humanity” took place at the Swedish Institute in Paris. The workshop was organized by CERGU researcher Urban Strandberg, together with Christian Munthe (Department of Philosophy, Linguistics and Theory of Science), and gathered an international group of scholars. The workshop provided a platform for collaboration on a special issue of European Review based on last year’s Big Data Symposium,  which Urban Strandberg and Christian Munthe will be guest-editing.
