Protest and the University of Brighton
One Day Symposium

Saturday 10th May 2014

The Critical Studies Research Group (CSRG) and the Centre for Applied Philosophy, Politics and Ethics (CAPPE) organised a one day symposium on the topic of ‘Protest and the University of Brighton’. The symposium aimed to offer a history of protest at the University of Brighton; a counter-narrative identifying Brighton as a political university (as opposed to its typical identification as ‘non-political’, contra University of Sussex's 'politicalness'); and a theoretical account of protest in higher education more generally.
