An international symposium investigating links between radical cultures and local identities will be hosted by the Centre for Regional and Local History, University of Lincoln 21-22 September 2007.
Papers will explore how local contexts have formed the backdrop for numerous radical activities (strikes; rebellions; popular protests). Through a number of themes papers will consider what role local allegiances, bases and networks play in radical formation and consider whether at a point when much radical activity is centred around opposition to globalisation, the local is taking on new importance or whether it has historically been an essential ingredient of radical politics.
