In March, 8 members of our Politics team travelled to gorgeous Glasgow for the 2024 Political Studies Association conference. The PSA conference is the largest political studies event in the UK, with over 700 delegates from across the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
We were thrilled to see so many friendly faces from across the Politics HE universe and to share our research with our wider community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our presentations show what a diverse group of specialists we are!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00b7 Dr Dele Babalola and his PhD student Gabriel Oduh presented their paper, \u2018Comparative analysis of secessionist agitations in federations: A case of Biafra in Nigeria and Bougainville in Papua New Guinea (PNG)\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00b7 Professor David Bates presented on \u2018Marxism and Human Emancipation\u2019 and coordinated further Marxism Specialist Group panels in his role as co-convenor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00b7 Dr Susan Kenyon and Fran Gould presented a paper produced during Fran\u2019s student internship with us, called \u2018Understanding Barriers To Sustainable Travel: Exploring The Persistence Of The Car Culture Amongst Young People In The UK\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00b7 Jo Rothery discussed her PhD research, \u2018Politics of Place in England and the Rise of Resentment\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00b7 Dr Tom Sharkey presented his research, \u2018Alexander Herzen, the Russian Socialists and Max Stirner: Egoism, Ownness and Postanarchist Thought\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00b7 Dr Carolina Silveira presented her research, in a paper titled \u2018Kilted lads and Funny gags: Exploring Scottish Identity and Standup Comedy\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Across the three days, we learnt so much from the other delegates, about a wide range of topics and we had tremendous fun. The conference represented Scottish hospitality at its best. Thank you to the team at the PSA and the University of Strathclyde, for all of their hard work \u2013 we can\u2019t wait for PSA 75 in Birmingham next year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
