Announcement: GREGYNOG IDEAS LAB, A Summer School in PostInternational Politics

Gregynog Hall, Wales 9-14 July 2012

Co-Sponsored by PAIS and co-organised by Dr Nick Vaughan-Williams

The inaugural Gregynog Ideas Lab, a Summer School in PostInternational Politics, will take place 9-14 July, 2012. The Summer School will provide a unique opportunity for graduate students and academics to return to key texts and thinkers from critical, postcolonial, feminist, post-structural and psychoanalytic traditions, to re-examine their work and how it has been employed in international politics, and to ask whether the radical potential of this work is in danger of being lost.

For more information about the event and on how to apply please or download the poster.
