The III. International Social Sciences Congress of the Faculty of Letters
Congist’24, titled “Social Sciences and Artificial Intelligence: Theory
and Practice,” will be held on
December 18-20, 2024. This year, the theme of Congist’24 will explore the
relationship between artificial intelligence and social sciences, with a
pioneering institute on AI research Erasmus University Rotterdam School of
Philosophy as our partner institution. In today’s world, the use of AI
influences various aspects of our lives and directly reshaping social
structures. Its inclusion in areas such as political and ethical debates,as
well as its impacts on creation, distribution, and utilization of scientific
knowledge highlights its profound effects. The congress aims to examine the
relationship between social sciences and artificial intelligence 
extensively,
bringing together the diverse approaches based on participants’ areas of
expertise and interdisciplinary perspectives. Through this congress, we will
explore both the positive and negative impacts of AI and by examining both
its potentialities and limitations, we aim to provide an extensive framework
for understanding how digital tools and artificial intelligence are
transforming social sciences, including their influence on the productionand
accumulation of knowledge, and their broader impact on reshaping social
sciences. Accordingly,

The congress will feature presentations of esteemed speakers renowned in AI
and the social sciences, covering current debates, practices, and 
theoretical
frameworks regarding the relationship between AI technologies and the social
sciences.
	There will be sessions open to suggestions for panel discussions and other
thematic sessions, in addition to the titles presented below. The paper
abstracts will be accepted after peer review and published as an e-book 
prior
to the congress.
	Following the editorial selection process, the presented papers will be
compiled according to their relevant scientific field and published by
Istanbul University Press. Istanbul University Press is an international
publishing house, and the published books are indexed by the Web of Science
Book Citation Index.
We cordially invite you to participate in the congress by presenting an
individual paper, organizing in panel sessions, or conducting a workshop.It
would be an honor to welcome you to an event where the academic community
converges to explore the changing world of social sciences with artificial
intelligence, enriching the discourse with your expertise.
