Using Large Language Models (LLMs) and Other AI Tools to Gather and Analyze Political Elite Networks
​
Our ECPR Joint Session Workshop will take place in
Innsbruck, Austria, April 7-10, 2026
 

In Innsbruck, we bring together scholars to discuss optimal approaches, data sources, and validation strategies. The goal is to enable large-scale comparative projects, and expand analysis beyond narrowly defined elites, and from simple to multiplex or signed networks.

​

You can find the whole program here. And if you are intrested in the abstracts of the papers presented or further information about the workshop, visit the website of the ecpr.

While this is a closed workshop, we will post relevant materials here on this website, so follow us on Bluesky and X and subscribe to our LLM-polnet mailing list. You would like to read a paper that is being presented in our workshop? Reach out to us!

A special thanks to the University of Bern's Digitalization Commission and the "EU Projekt Valuing Public Goods in a Populist World", whose generous funding have allowed us to offer travel stipends to early career scholars from Asia and the Americas.
