Applied political theory

Our theme ‘Applied political theory’ focusses on questions of political theory in both an abstract and applied sense. It thus encompasses research, impact and knowledge exchange activities in the areas of political protest, social justice and social movements. Furthermore, it incorporates critical theory, such as critical race theory and critical IR, and the work of the Activism Research Network. Last, it links specifically to the collaboration with the TATE Exchange programme and the Sidney Cooper Gallery at CCCU.
