Hernán Borisonik is a political and social science researcher based in Argentina. He holds a PhD in Social Sciences from the University of Buenos Aires and serves as an Associate Professor at the National University of San Martín (UNSAM), where he directs the “Centro Ciencia y Pensamiento” (Centre for Science and Thought]), an interdisciplinary hub focused on critical inquiry into science, technology, and digital transformation. He is also a researcher at CONICET, Argentina’s National Research Council.
His work approaches digital technologies, subjectivity, and value from the perspective of political theory, combining conceptual analysis with interdisciplinary tools drawn from Science and Technology Studies (STS) and philosophy. Over the past decade, he has developed an in-depth research line on the political and social dimensions of money, with a particular focus on cryptocurrencies, digital infrastructures, and algorithmic governance.
More recently, his research has turned toward the implications of artificial intelligence for democratic regulation, global imaginaries, and techno-political governance.
He has authored three monographs and numerous peer-reviewed articles, and has presented his research in Germany, Spain, Brazil, Mexico and China, among other countries.
Prof. Hernán Borisonik will be a visiting scholar at FDDI from December 1 to 30, 2025.
