Event details

Politics Society event

Why is our current political climate so polarised? Why do many people feel alienated from political discourse? Does politics still have the power to improve people’s lives? How can we study politics with a transformative purpose? What inspires productive political engagement?

These are the questions we will be discussing in this first Polsoc panel of the term. Joining us, to shed light on these issues, are Dr. Alfred Moore and PhD student Stephanie Luke.
