THE IV ANNUAL POSTGRADUATE CONFERENCE

Warwick university, 13th March 2010


This is a conference about rights.  From rights claimed on the basis of humanity to those relating to a specific group in a particular setting; are rights so ubiquitous that they are rendered meaningless?  What does it mean to have rights, morally and/or legally?  How are they allocated, by whom, and who is included and excluded?  These are some of the questions that the conference hopes to address.  If you are a postgraduate in the social sciences and humanities and are interested in issues of rights then this conference will be of interest to you.  Click on the links below for information about submitting an abstract or registering to attend.  In line with our ethos of inclusivity for all postgraduates, funded or unfunded, this conference is only £15.00 if you register before February 12th 2010.


KEYNOTE SPEAKERS:

The organising team is delighted to announce the two keynote speakers for the conference will be Prof Lydia Morris from University of Essex and Dr Neil Stammers from University of Sussex.
