Hosted at the Northern Cluster for Global and Transcultural Studies, 1450-1750.
At the cluster's first workshop we will explore the current intellectual environment for global and transcultural studies, considering the most innovative approaches being undertaken in this vibrant, contentious field. Intended to facilitate open discussion and collaborative action, the workshop will be chaired by Dr Edmond Smith and Dr Claudia Rogers who will candidly share their own experiences undertaking work in this field, discuss the challenges facing researchers in the field, and lead discussion about where the future lies.
We believe that global and transcultural studies are essentially collaborative, interdisciplinary and diverse, and participants will be encouraged to join the debate. The workshop is open to all and will be a safe space for researchers at all stages of their career from all disciplinary backgrounds.
