PhD Workshop with IAS Fellow Professor Elizabeth Povinelli (Columbia University)

The Department of Geography will convene a workshop that offers an exploratory overview of Elizabeth Povinelli's work and provoke a discussion around the evolution of one's research, ideas, and contributions over their career. To do so, we as a committee are each selecting a key chapter from Elizabeth Povinelli's bibliography to form a 'collection' that will be shared with the rest of the postgraduate community. The idea is that this collection will be used to guide a critical discussion with Prof Povinelli around a TBD theme during the workshop. The expectation is not that postgrads will be expected to read every piece of literature (although they can if they want) but rather provide them with a variety of insights and approaches as defined in Prof Povinelli's different texts. 

Please contact Dr Penelope Anthias in the Department of Geography (penelope.f.anthias@durham.ac.uk) for further information.
