Dr. Issevenler's theoretical research focuses on relations of power emerging at the intersection of historical time and digital time. He recently finished an open-access text-book on political sociology. The book rethinks the sociology of state, social movements, political technologies and violence from the perspective of networked digital environments. He is also finishing a project on the impact of algorithms on learning by analyzing the paradigmatic example how the ancient game of Go is transcribed into artificial intelligence by Google's AlphaGo.
