Registration Open

The conference will take place in the IDS Building on the campus of the University of Sussex, Brighton, BN1 9RE (see map below).

There will be two parallel sessions that will run from 9:20am - 1:00pm in Rooms 121 (1st floor) and 221 (2nd floor), respectively. The papers to be given during these sessions will be decided upon by the 4th July.

The keynote presenters are already confirmed, the first of which will commence after lunch in Room 120 at 2:00pm.

A full programme will be emailed directly to all registered attendees when available, and posted on this website in due course.

In the meantime, anyone wishing to attend the conference should register via email to Simon Mussell: s.p.mussell@sussex.ac.uk

The conference will be free-of-charge. However, places will be limited so please register beforehand to avoid disappointment. (I would also advise people to either bring along their own lunch or be prepared to purchase something from one of the caféterias on campus).

As a taster of the programme line-up, the following keynote presenters have been confirmed:

Prof. Max Paddison - University of Durham
(Chair: Gordon Finlayson)
"Adorno's Permanent Exile"

Prof. Alexander Duettmann - Goldsmiths
