However, the way both interact in today\u2019s digital era holds challenging configurations for both the practice and the study of International Relations. Drawing on different interdisciplinary contributions, this Summer School aims to critically explore the epistemological and methodological possibilities big data and the Internet of things (IoT) bring to IR while critically questioning how far the technology that allowed the advent of these has been revolutionizing the world we live and how research in IR is concurrently going through an epistemological, (de)ontological, methodological and ethical shift.<\/p>\n<p>This\u00a0<em>Summer School\u00a0<\/em>will offer a mix of seminars, group discussions and workshops on theoretical debates, digital methods, and specific areas of IR where theory and digital methods might be critically applied.<\/p>\n<p>The following sessions are of particular relevance to DeCode\/M:<\/p>\n<div>\n<div class=\"\" dir=\"ltr\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<ul>\n<li class=\"gmail_default\"><span class=\"\"><b class=\"\">Monday, June 28th |\u00a0<\/b><\/span><span class=\"\">14h00 &#8211;
