The Practical Ethics and Democracy research group at the Universitat Jaume I is organising the eleventh edition of the "La democràcia avui" lecture series, which on this occasion will focus on analysing the ethical challenges posed by digitalisation - artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things and Big Data - of today's democracies through the critical reflection of philosophers, sociologists, educationalists, political scientists and economists, among others. The lectures will be held from February to May in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences.

The speakers who will participate in this edition of the lecture series stand out for their expertise in specific fields related to moral philosophy, political theory, public policy and artificial intelligence.

John Keane (Professor of Politics at the University of Sydney & WZB-Berlin), one of the most respected political-philosophical voices on the international scene, will be in charge of opening the cycle with a talk entitled "The New Age of the Machine Revolution" on Monday 10 February 2020 at 12 noon. The lecture will focus on the growing effects of artificial intelligence and robotics on everyday life. From this starting point, Keane will offer a critical analysis of current political events focusing on how technology dehumanises.

Gemma Galdón-Clavell, Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Barcelona; Jordi Adell, Lecturer in Educational Sciences at the Universitat Jaume I; Aníbal Monasterio, Lecturer in Cognitive Sciences and Humanities at the University of the Basque Country, and Patrici Calvo, Lecturer in Moral Philosophy at the Universitat Jaume I, will be the guests at the rest of the sessions in the series that will end on 25 May.
