Digital history & historiography

Knowledge infrastructures and digital governance. History, challenges, practices

7 September 2020 to 8 September 2020

operas workshop
This online workshop organized by the OPERAS (a European research infrastructure for the development of open scholarly communication in the social sciences and humanities) community aims at revisiting digital knowledge infrastructures from an organisational and governance perspective, through their history, their stakes and achievements, as well as their challenges and obstacles.

Our workshop will explore how these infrastructures frame themselves, evolve and adapt, how they stimulate participation and implement innovative models of governance as well as how they create a shared culture, common values, how they sustain knowledge commons and may contribute to a new epistemology and scientific environment.
