SUMMARY:Book discussion - Violent Ignorance: Confronting Racism & Migration Control
DESCRIPTION:Book discussion in association with SPIN\, MMB and SWDTP\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nJoin us for this online event\, where Hannah Jones will discuss her book Violent Ignorance: Confronting Racism and Migration Control with Chloe Peacock from the University of Bristol. \n\nAbout the book\nAn elected politician is assassinated in the street by a terrorist associated with extreme political groups\, and the national response is to encourage picnics. Thousands of people are held in prison-like conditions without judicial oversight or any time-limit on their sentence . An attempt to re-assert national sovereignty and borders leads thousands of citizens to register for dual citizenship with other countries\, some overcoming family associations with genocide in their second country of nationality to do so. \nThis is life in the UK today. How then are things still continuing as ‘normal’? How can we confront these phenomena and why do we so often refuse to? What are the practices that help us to accommodate the unconscionable? How might we contend with the horrors that meet us each day\, rather than becoming desensitized to them? \nViolent Ignorance sets out to examine these questions through an understanding of how the past persists in the present\, how trauma is silenced or reappears\, and how we might reimagine identity and connection in ways that counter – rather than ignore – historic violence. In particular Hannah Jones shows how border controls and enforcement\, and its corollary\, racism and violence\, have shifted over time. Drawing on thinkers from John Berger to Ben Okri\, from Audre Lorde to Susan Sontag\, the book questions what it means to belong\, and discusses how hierarchies of belonging are revealed by what we can see\, and what we can ignore. \n\nSign up here!

SUMMARY:Democracy Lives in Darkness: Discussion with Prof Emily Van Duyn
DESCRIPTION:How and Why People Keep Their Politics a Secret: A Discussion with Professor Emily Van Duyn Why Democracy Lives in Darkness \n\nAbout this event\n\n\nEmily Van Duyn\, PhD\, assistant professor at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign\, will discuss her newly published book\, Democracy Lives in Darkness: How and Why People Keep Their Politics a Secret\, which argues that political secrecy has become a necessity for mainstream partisans and the result of intensifying political prejudice and segregation within and across communities. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe book draws on an array of qualitative and quantitative studies of political secrecy in contemporary democracy. Specifically\, Dr. Van Duyn relies on four years of ethnographic research of a secret political organization of progressives in rural Texas and novel survey data about political secrecy in the United States. From this investigation\, Dr. Van Duyn considers how the shape of and participants in political secrecy have changed with the rise of digital media and with growing political hostility.\n\n\n\n\nShe asks why mainstream partisans feel the need to hide their political beliefs from others\, why they feel afraid of those from the opposite party\, how they stay politically engaged in secret\, and how this can transform them and their communities.\n\n\n\n\nIn her talk\, Dr. Van Duyn will challenge those who study politics and public life to look beyond public political behavior and those who study big data and machine learning to consider the unique and meaningful qualities of studying the individual in context. She will consider how secrecy can be both destructive to and critical for democracy’s survival\, and how scholars and practitioners alike can use this knowledge to better their own practices.\n\n\n\n  \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Adam Sisman on John Le Carre: Writing and Researching Elusive Subjects
DESCRIPTION:Adam Sisman\, author of John Le Carre: The Biography talks about the book and writing and researching elusive subjects \n\nAbout this event\n\n\nThis month\, we are delighted to welcome guest author and researcher\, Adam Sisman to discuss researching\, interviewing and writing about the elusive David John Moore Cornwell (aka the globally successful spy fiction author John le Carré). Le Carré\, who passed away last year\, may be best known for his fictionalised spyworlds\, but this fiction was often based on his own life and his experiences of working in MI5 and MI6 at the height of the Cold War. For Sisman\, the challenge of writing and telling the stories of Cornwell’s life therefore meant negotiating these histories\, as well as le Carré’s tendency to continue to produce ambiguity about his life and work. \n \nOn Wednesday the 24th of November\, please join us therefore for a lunchtime conversation with Adam Sisman\, author of John le Carré: The Biography. \n\n\n\n\n\nHow can one research\, write and tell stories about the world of intelligence?\n\n\n\n\nHow does one conduct interviews\, archival work and craft a narrative?\n\n\n\n\nWhat does it mean to research and write around secrecy?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister on Eventbrite here\n

SUMMARY:Using the Understanding Society study for longitudinal research
DESCRIPTION:Using the Understanding Society study for longitudinal research on individuals and households in the UK \n\nAbout this event\n\n\nAlexey Bessudnov (Senior Lecturer in Sociology\, University of Exeter) will share top tips on getting started with Understanding Society in your PhD/MReS research. \nFunded by ESRC\, Understanding Society is the largest longitudinal study of its kind. It provides crucial information for researchers and policymakers on the changes and stability of people’s lives in the UK on topics including Biomarkers\, Genetics and Epigenetics; Covid-19; Education; Employment; Ethnicity & immigration; Family & households; Health & wellbeing; Politcs & Social attitudes; Transport & environment; Young people. As with most other longitudinal household surveys\, the structure and documentation of the Understanding Society are quite complex. Sometimes this may seem as an obstacle for researchers who are just starting to use the data. \n  \nIn this 60 minute webinar on Zoom\, Alexey will: \n\n\n\n\n\nProvide top tips on how the Understanding Society files are structured and how they can be linked and reshaped.\n\n\n\n\nDemonstrate how to work with the Understanding Society files in R.\n\n\n\n\nSuggest possible questions that could be posed by researchers using Understanding Society.\n\n\n\n\nAlexey’s presentation will also be followed by a Q&A session\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nSign up here!\n

SUMMARY:NCRM - Introducing Institutional Ethnography: An Interdisciplinary Feminist Approach to Social Research
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will introduce Institutional Ethnography (IE)\, an interdisciplinary feminist approach to social research that focuses on how texts and language organise our everyday lives. IE is not just a methodology\, but a comprehensive feminist ontology of how the social world works which advocates using a form of standpoint to explore from specific perspectives. IE research ‘takes sides’\, often researching as\, with\, and/or for\, marginalised groups who are often made invisible by\, or excluded from\, organisations and institutions.\nThe focus on texts – conceptualised as replicable materials objects that carry messages – allows IE researchers to ethnographically explore the organising power of language and institutions\, made material in institutional texts which act as bridges between different people and places. \nPresenter: Dr Orla Murray\, Dr Liz Ablett and Dr Adriana Suarez-Delucchi \nFind out more information and preparatory reading here \nThe overall aim of the workshop is to provide attendees with a comprehensive overview of institutional ethnography as an approach and the opportunity to translate their own research ideas and projects into an IE research proposal or small piece of text-focused analysis. This hands on workshop is suitable for students\, academics\, and anyone else interested in feminist methodologies\, text and discourse analysis\, and institutional or organisational ethnographies. No prior training in\, or knowledge of\, IE is required. \nThe course covers:\n\nAn overview of the work of feminist sociologist\, Dorothy Smith\, who developed Institutional Ethnography\nThree Institutional Ethnography case studies from Sociology and Human Geography\nThree text and discourse analysis methods within the Institutional Ethnography approach\nHow to translate your research ideas or projects into an Institutional Ethnography proposal/plan\n\nBy the end of the course participants will:\n\nunderstand of the origin and development of Institutional Ethnography\nknow how to use Institutional Ethnography to analyse texts\, processes\, and discourses\nhave an outline of how their research ideas could become an Institutional Ethnography project\n\nThe course is aimed at academics\, students\, any other qualitative researchers or policymakers interested in analysing organisational processes.  Participants must have at least some experience in qualitative research methods\, but no experience of Institutional Ethnography is required. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:SPIN - Book launch: William Walters\, 'State Secrecy and Security: Refiguring the Covert Imaginary'
DESCRIPTION:Link to the event here\nSPIN is delighted to host the book launch for Professor William Walters’ new book State Secrecy and Security: Refiguring the Covert Imaginary. \nIn the book\, William Walters calls for secrecy to be given a more central place in critical security studies and elevated to become a core concept when theorising power in liberal democracies. \nThrough investigations into such themes as the mobility of cryptographic secrets\, the power of public inquiries\, the connection between secrecy and place-making\, and the aesthetics of secrecy within immigration enforcement\, Walters challenges commonplace understandings of the covert and develops new concepts\, methods and themes for secrecy and security research. Walters identifies the covert imaginary as both a limit on our ability to think politics differently and a ground to develop a richer understanding of power. \nState Secrecy and Security offers readers a set of thinking tools to better understand the strange powers that hiding\, revealing\, lying\, confessing\, professing ignorance and many other operations of secrecy put in motion. It will be a valuable resource for scholars and students of security\, secrecy and politics more broadly. \nJoin us for an evening to discuss the book and its themes\, where audiences will also be able to ask the panel some questions. The event will be held online\, through Zoom. Sign up available through Eventbrite page which you can find at the top of this page \nThe ebook and hardback copy can be purchased from the publishers Routledge here and from other online retailers too. \n \nWilliam Walters teaches politics at Carleton University\, Ottawa\, Canada\, where he is the Public Affairs Research Excellence Chair (2019–22). He is the author of Unemployment and Government: Genealogies of the Social (CUP\, 2000) and Governmentality: Critical Encounters (Routledge 2012)\, co-author of Governing Europe: Discourse\, Governmentality\, and European Integration (Routledge\, 2005) and co-editor of Global Governmentality (Routledge\, 2004) and Viapolitics: Borders\, Migration\, and the Power of Locomotion (Duke UP\, 2021).

SUMMARY:NCRM - Random Effects Modelling - Advanced Issues
DESCRIPTION:Register here\nRandom effects models are applied in a range of social science domains (e.g. education\, health and economics). Across disciplines\, however\, they are often used for different purposes\, with different specifications\, or even with different terminologies. These differences may well reflect genuine complexities and ambiguities that are associated with their implementation. This two-day course will focus on selected advanced issues in the application of random effects models in social research contexts. It is most suited to empirical social science researchers with some previous experience in using statistical models with random effects. \nPresenter: Professor Paul Lambert \nFind more information here \nThe course will \n\nReview common uses of random effects models in the social sciences\nExplore enduring debates in the specification and exploitation of random effects models\nFacilitate virtual lab sessions designed to illustrate and investigate the contribution of random effects models\n\nParticipants will be supported in order to \n\nSecure a rigorous understanding the terminology and features associated with random effects models\nUnderstand different perspectives in important debates concerning the use of random effects\nEnhance practical skills in applying random effects models to statistical datasets\n\nParticipants should have experience of estimating statistical models including some previous experience working with random effects models\, for instance through multilevel modelling\, frailty modelling or longitudinal and panel models. \nThe participants will be invited to use their own computers in the virtual lab exercises. Participants should have at least one of the software packages Stata\, SPSS and R installed on their computers in order to participate in the virtual labs. \nThe course will be delivered on-line and run from 10:00 – 16:00 each day.

SUMMARY:Communicating with non-academic audiences using Zines\, Blog-posts\, Podcasts and other creative methods
DESCRIPTION:Link to the event here\nIn this workshop MJ Barker explored the use of zines\, blog-posts\, podcasts\, and other creative methods to get research and academic ideas out to wider audiences\, and potentially as a form of ongoing self-care and/or reflexive practice through our work. MJ Barker talked about their own experiences working on Queer: A Graphic History and the follow up Graphic Guides to Gender and Sexuality\, as well as developing the self-care zines available on their website rewriting-the-rules.com\, and creating blog posts and podcasts for that website and for megjohnandjustin.com. During the workshop participants were invited to consider the ways in which they might use zines\, blog-posts\, podcasts\, and other methods themselves\, and given the opportunity to try out planning and creating content which might work for communicating their ideas to a wider audience. \n  \nWorkshop attendees were asked to reflect on a number of questions/provocations including: \n\nWhy communicate with non-academic audiences?\nWhat are your fears and concerns around communicating/working with non-academic audiences\, whether self-care and/or practical?\nWhat draws you in or makes you hold back?\n\nResponses included: \n\nconcerns around criticism\, misrepresentation; low self-esteem/confidence; worries about participants being identified\n\nStrategies suggested to counter some of the above included: \n\nInsist on a recording which you can review/approve prior to publication; [where appropriate] do the work with a contract- this doesn’t have to be onerous; take the control back and do things on your terms; seek help from the experts e.g. your Universities press office if you’re working with the press; seek training\, e.g. media training in advance; you might want to seek help/support for emotional challenges through informal networks\, or even formal networks if available; consider working with others/collaboratively to share the load/and ease anxieties\n\nDownload further reading and more in depth notes here

SUMMARY:Make Space: LGBTQ+ Experiences of Mental Health and Self Harm: A Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:People who identify as LGBTQ+ are often at the sharp edge of social inequalities\, often facing disadvantage throughout a range of social systems. While there are conversations happening about LGBTQ+ mental health\, we do not believe they adequately explore (a) the systemic issues faced by the LGBTQ+ communities (b) the intersection of being both LGBTQ+ and someone with experience of self-harm. In this panel discussion\, we seek to give space and time to the ways in which we might think about and experience self-harm and mental health in relation to queerness.\nFacilitated by Make Space (makespaceco.org)\, an organisation co-founded by SWDTP student Courtney Sommer\, panellists will present their own perspectives on the topic\, and will also engage in broader discussion\, responding to questions from attendees. The panel brings together a number of exciting speakers\, who will provide vital\, nuanced perspectives. \nSpeakers include: \n  \n\nNim Ralph (they/them) – trans rights activist and freelance writer\, trainer\, and facilitator\nGinny Russel (she/her) – interdisciplinary Senior Lecturer in mental health at the University of Exeter\nTamara-Jade Kaz (she/her) – queer black creative facilitator and trainer based in London.\nBeth Ingram (she/they) – founder of youth peer support charity Hearts & Minds\nMax Cohen (he/him) – counsellor\, trainer and group facilitator based in Exeter.\n\nTo learn more about the speakers and to sign up visit: https://www.makespaceco.org/community-care-and-creativity/lgbtq-mental-health \nThis event is part of a wider program of events focussed exploring LGBTQ+ self-harm.
