Bo Yun Park



Bo Yun Park est professeur adjoint de sociologie et d’études sur le leadership à l’université de Richmond. En tant que sociologue dont les recherches se situent à l’intersection de la sociologie politique, culturelle et transnationale, elle s’intéresse particulièrement au leadership politique, à la politique numérique, à la technologie et au changement social dans les démocraties sous pression. Ses travaux récents portent sur la manière dont les stratèges politiques en France et aux États-Unis élaborent des récits de leadership politique pour les candidats à la présidence à l’ère numérique. Plus précisément, elle examine comment leur utilisation des médias sociaux et de l’analyse des données a affecté les scénarios de leadership politique au cours des dernières années.
