Connections 9
Contemporary Conflicts: Class, Culture, Environment
University of Bristol. Monday 13th September 2010
Contemporary Conflicts is the ninth in the annual ‘Connections’ series of interdisciplinary postgraduate conferences, hosted by PhD Sociology students at the University of Bristol. The conference offers postgraduates an opportunity to present and discuss their research in a friendly and supportive setting, and to form connections with peers which cross disciplinary, institutional and geographical divides.
Papers (20 minutes in length) are invited on the topic of contemporary conflict, for inclusion within any of the three conference streams:
Class
Culture
Environment
We welcome participation from across the Social Sciences, Humanities and Arts, and also encourage submissions from other disciplines relevant to one or more of the conference streams, such as Geography and Environmental Studies. It is expected that streams will be interpreted loosely and creatively; ‘Culture’ may be broadly defined as including religion, identity, language, custom, or popular culture, for instance.
To submit a paper, please e-mail a maximum 150 word abstract and 50 word biography to contemporaryconflicts2010@googlemail.com by 30th June.
Please also include your contact details, and institutional and departmental affiliation. We will get back to you by the 14th July. Non-presenting participants are also welcome. Please e-mail to register your interest by the 30th June.
