In the lead up to #ALTA2024, we're highlighting excellent talks and papers from previous ALTA events.
Here, listen to a #Keynote presentation from #ALTA2023 by Professor Heng Ji from #UniversityOfIllinois Urbana-Champaign, speaking to the #SmartBook - an #AI prophetess for disaster reporting and forecasting.

The IR remote control for the Pro-Ject Pre Box DS2 Analogue is strange: The power button sends different codes per press, first „00“ for power on, next time „80“ for power off, then „00“ again, … #ir#infrared#pro_ject
Transdisciplinary and transepochal exchange can be inspiring and challenging at the same time. Halvard Leira explores what the #NewDiplomaticHistory can learn from #IR and where one has to be careful when adapting modern concepts to #emdiplomacy.
As the first part of the #emdiplomacy handbook is all about changing perspectives on diplomatic history and exchanging ideas with experts from other disciplines, we want to introduce to you our author @halvardl who is Research Professor at the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (NUPI) and an expert on #InternationalRelations, #diplomacy with a special focus on historical international relations and international thought. He also is a member of the editorial team of the European Journal of International Relations and co-editor of the Routledge Handbook of Historical International Relations: https://www.routledge.com/Routledge-Handbook-of-Historical-International-Relations/Carvalho-Lopez-Leira/p/book/9781032006697 (2/5)
For the handbook he explores the development of the field of #InternationalRelations and its relation to #diplomatic#history. Over the years both fields have often tackled similar questions, according to Leira, but interestingly mostly separately from each other. There has been exchange, but there’s still room for collaboration and learning from each other.
Thus, he gives us some suggestions what the history of #emdiplomacy specifically could learn from International Relations. (3/5)
But it’s not only #earlymodern#NewDiplomaticHistory that can learn from an exchange with #IR: @halvardl is sure that this could give #InternationalRelations a better understanding of how and when ‘the international’ emerged and changed. There is much to learn for both sides and we are looking forward to explore at least some of the questions raised by Leira. (5/5)
