Vos missions en quelques mots
Research activities, tasks and expected results
- Name of the project: DATAROUTES (ERC Advanced Grant 2022)
- Research activities / Content of the research project
DATAROUTES aims to carry out a cartography of Internet data routes in order to understand how the routing strategies of state and non-state actors shape cyberspace and to analyze, as a domain of application, the important security and policy issues it raises for the European Union. The goals of this project are to measure and map Internet routes using open-source data, thanks to DATAROUTES’ Border Gateway Protocol observatory. DATAROUTES will provide a platform for open access to its data and methodologies in order to encourage a new stream of research on the geopolitics of data routing.
- Tasks to be performed
◻ Research in social sciences (geopolitics, international relations, geography, political science, sociology, information and communication)
◻ Collection and analysis of open source data
◻ Publication of scientific articles, including in peer-reviewed journals, and for science popularization
◻ Participation in scientific events such as conferences, colloquiums, roundtables and workshops.
◻ Organization of conferences to disseminate results of the research
- Expected results
◻Publication of scientific papers in journals in Geography, Geopolitics, Political Geography, Science and Technology Studies, and other relevant disciplines
◻Participation in scientific conferences and colloquiums abroad and in France
◻Support to the activities of DATAROUTES and their organization (conferences, workshops, seminars…)
◻Support to the training activities of DATAROUTES

Qui sommes-nous ?
L’université de Paris 8 est un établissement d’enseignement supérieur qui regroupe 22500 étudiants, 1200 enseignants chercheurs et environ 650 personnels administratifs.
The University Paris 8 is an institution of higher education with 22,500 students, 1,200 research professors and approximately 650 administrative staff. The university carries out training and research missions. Its activities are mainly focused on human and social sciences, arts and digital technology. As far as research is concerned, it has 26 research units and 7 mixed research units.
IFG Lab is the research laboratory of the French Institute of Geopolitics of the University Paris 8, founded in 2022 by Béatrice Giblin. It was previously called the Centre de recherches et d’analyses géopolitiques -CRAG (Centre for Research and Analysis in Geopolitics), a host research team (EA 353) founded in 1989 at the University Paris 8 along with the first doctoral program and Diplôme d’Etudes Approfondies (Diploma of Higher Education) in geopolitics in France.
The researchers and doctoral students of IFG Lab study territorial and digital power rivalries. Their research work applies geopolitical methodologies (spatial analysis and stakeholder strategy, cartography and computer graphs) to a wide variety of conflict situations.
Descriptif du service
These can be international (war, diplomacy, environmental conflicts, citizen involvement, etc.), intra-state (redevelopment and infrastructure projects, environmental conflicts, regionalist or nationalist movements, urban geopolitics, electoral rivalries, etc.), or digital conflicts (cyber conflicts, disinformation, geopolitics of digital technologies, international regulation of cyberspace, etc.).
The GEODE project (Geopolitics of the Datasphere), led by IFG Lab, specializes in the strategic challenges of the digital revolution. In 2020, it was awarded the title of Centre of Excellence for International Relations and Strategy by the French Ministry of the Armed Forces (geode.science).
