The SCRIPTS Forum 2026, titled “Emergent Digital (Dis-)Orders: AI Governance between Liberal and Authoritarian Scripts,” examines how artificial intelligence and digital technologies reshape global political order from a comparative and interdisciplinary perspective.

Visiting Researchers will join the Forum between April and December 2026, contribute to its outreach activities, and develop a mini research project to be presented at the end-of-year conference. Up to six research stays of one to six months are available.

The call is open to early-career researchers affiliated with academic institutions outside Germany.
