Dr. Min Tang<\/a> presents her most recent research on information infrastructures at the 2025 annual conference of Society for Social Studies of Science (4S) in Seattle. The presentation, titled \u201cRethink the Digital Cold War: The political economy and geopolitics of information infrastructures\u201d, revisits the \u201cdigital Cold War\u201d framework by examining three case studies on the emerging infrastructural technologies in the current geopolitical battle of global information communication technology industries: the semiconductor industry, the artificial intelligence, and the submarine cable. Dr. Tang argues that scholarly discussions around information geopolitics should move beyond the \u201cdigital cold war\u201d framework and rethink the materialistic aspects in global information infrastructures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
