CfP: An Agenda for Graphic Social Science

12:30pm to 5pm, November 24th, 2017
The Open University, Camden, London

Earlier this year, The Sociological Review funded a one day workshop on Using Graphic Novels To Communicate Your Research. Much of the discussion on the day concerned the possibilities for Graphic Social Science and how we might develop what are currently fragmented pursuits into a shared project. This half-day event builds on these discussions, with the intention of developing an agenda for graphic social science which we can take forward.

We are seeking 10 minute presentations, either on proposals for developing graphic social sciences or issues it raises that need to be addressed. These could be organisational, theoretical, methodological, institutional or something else entirely. Please send a 100 word summary and a 2 sentence biography to mark@markcarrigan.net by October 1st

Priority will be given to those who want to speak at the event but there will be a registration link for non-speakers made available nearer the time.

Provisional timetable for the day:

12:30pm to 1:00pm – Introduction (Mark Carrigan)
1:00pm to 2:00pm – Proposals for Graphic Social Science
2:00pm to 2:30pm – Developing Queer (MJ Barker)
2:30pm to 3:00pm – Coffee Break
3:00pm to 3:45pm – The Perspective of A Journal Editor (TBC)
3:45pm to 4:30pm – Issues for Graphic Social Science
4:30pm to 5:00pm – Next Steps (Mark Carrigan)
