Dear Colleagues,
Please find attached a call for participants for the colloquium
'Social Cohesion in Times of Uncertainty', which I am co-organizing
at Cumberland Lodge (Windsor) on 24-25 September. http://www.cumberla
ndlodge.ac.uk/whats-on/social-cohesion-times-uncertainty
Reflecting the broad and multidisciplinary nature of the subject of Social
Cohesion, the colloquium asks five central questions, each drawing upon
different disciplines and policy areas:
-
What should social cohesion look like, and how should we build it?
-
How can we understand and bridge the many gaps in our society?
-
How might we re-examine the complex relation between cultural works and
social cohesion?
-
How do businesses enhance or hinder social cohesion?
-
How does the politics of (in)security affect cohesion?
We welcome proposals for papers, roundtables, screenings or other events
you think will contribute to engaging with the topics and problems above.
We also welcome interested observers.
*The deadline for abstracts is 9th June 2017 – the CfP can be found here
