Dear all,

We are thrilled to invite you to the public keynote of the upcoming Early Career Workshop organised by the European Network for Digital Anthropology (ENDA) and the CyberSocial Research Lab at UCC.

Keynote title: "From streets to screen: The Digital Disembedding of Informal Economies and the Road to Fascism in Brazil" Prof. Rosana Pinheiro-Machado (University College Dublin)

Date: 27th June, 12.30 pm (GMT+1) Venue: Centre for Executive Education (University College Cork) and online (click here to register). Occasion: Opening talk of the ENDA Early Career Workshop Use and Misuse of Technologies

Keynote abstract: In this talk, Prof. Pinheiro-Machado will analyze the link between labour precariousness and the rise of the far-right in Brazil, focusing on the digitalisation of work. The political engagement of non-organised workers has been a long-standing debate in social sciences. She will examine this phenomenon by exploring how platformisation is transforming it. She will focus on the case of Instagram digital entrepreneursan unregulated and rapidly growing phenomenon dominated by a network of far-right influencers. Additionally, Prof. Pinheiro-Machado will draw on her 25 years of ethnographic work on informal workers to provide a longitudinal perspective on the political impacts of digitalisation.

For more information, please see the attached poster and check out the ENDA webpage. We look forward to seeing you at the event.

Best wishes,

Sam (on behalf of ENDA)
