A symposium to examine the development, commercial value and
practices for cross cultural ethnographic research of work-place

Anthropology in commercial and non-commercial organizations is
becoming widespread. Increasingly the forward looking organizations
are employing a range of anthropological methods of data gathering,
analysis and interpretation to inform their approach to customers and
clients and for product development and design. In an
increasingly competitive environment for all types of organization
what are the boundaries for organizational anthropology?

Postgraduates are welcome at a (subsidized fee). A selection of
papers presented will be published in a special edition of the
journal Identity, Self & Symbolism and others in a book. A
conference to examine ways in which notions about the symbolic
essentiality of Britishnes have been used as a resource in fiction
and propaganda.
The portrayal of the nationalities, and regional identities, which
make up the ‘British’ has been a major feature of many films, plays
and television dramas and propaganda media. With the political will
looking to re-affirm the character of Britishness it is time to look
at, re-assess and visit the past. What better way to do this
assessment than to look at the wealth of British identities to be
found in Performance Media –
