The magnitude and scope of change occurring through China’s urbanization are unprecedented\, with impacts on nearly all facets of the society. As a field of enquiry\, urbanization also provides a conceptual container for the study of populations and the natural and built environment within spatial concentrations of human habitation and exchange. Recognizing the breadth of urbanization research\, we acknowledge the multidisciplinary nature of discourse and bring together scholars in an integrated forum of dialogue. \n  \nThis is a Weatherhead East Asian Institute 70th Anniversary Event. \nRegister here. \nEVENT DETAILS\n\nOctober 05\, 2019\n9:00 AM – 6:00 PM\n  \nAddress\n\nAvery Hall 1st Floor\, Wood Auditorium \n1172 Amsterdam Ave \n  \nFor press inquiries\, please contact Ariana King ak4364@columbia.edu. \nCosponsored by: Weatherhead East Asian Institute\, Columbia Global Centers-Beijing

SUMMARY:”Disinformation and Elections in East and Southeast Asia: Digital Futures and Fragile Democracies”
DESCRIPTION:New York Southeast Asia Network and School of Journalism Event\n  \nPlease join us for a Workshop co-organized by: \nSheila Coronel\, Columbia Journalism School\, \nColumbia University \nDuncan McCargo\, Department of Political Science\, \nColumbia University \nJonathan Corpus Ong\, Department of Communications \nUniversity of Massachusetts\, Amherst \nMargaret Scott\, Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service \nNew York University \n  \nA recent series of elections in Cambodia\, Indonesia\, Malaysia\, Thailand\, the Philippines and indeed across Asia has highlighted the salience of digital media in political campaigns and insidious modes of electoral manipulation. This two-day workshop aims to gather evidence into the operations and impact of digital disinformation in the context of recent Asian elections. \nThe conference approaches Asia as a site in which disinformation in various digital and analog forms have not only deep local histories but also radical acceleration and innovation the likes of which have little to no precedent in advanced liberal democracies in the West. Many Asian countries lead in both scale and intensity of technological adoption and use while serving as “laboratories” for testing and experimentation by Big Tech firms\, with minimal oversight and accountability to the potentially grave consequences of algorithmic tweaks\, the dispersed labor of content moderation\, and new platform rollouts. Thus we seek to develop a framework that examines the social and political ramifications of this process beyond the region. \nThe two-day event aims for interdisciplinary and collaborative approaches to thinking through issues of disinformation that draw from areas of sociology\, politics\, media and communication studies\, journalism studies\, critical legal studies\, information science\, and anthropology. \nThis is a Weatherhead East Asian Institute 70th Anniversary event.
