The Geopolitics of Cybersecurity: Old Problems, New Trends
This seminar will discuss the intensifying convergence of cyberspace and geopolitics on the backdrop of a resurgent Russia and an increasingly assertive China. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has sparked renewed debate about the limits and possibilities of cyber capabilities in war. China’s rise heralds new challenges of cybersecurity in economic and democratic contexts. How will geopolitically motivated cyber threats evolve and how can democratic nations address them?
