Dear colleagues

Apologies for any cross-posting.
We are delighted to announce our second keynote speaker,  *Professor Jane Wills* (Queen Mary University). Professor Wills is an expert in social geography, her work is based at the intersection between geography, sociology and political sciences. She is particularly recognised for her work on the ‘living wage campaign’, ‘low wage working in London’ and the geography of community and political organisation.

We would also like to remind you that the submission deadline for the Interdisciplinary Conference on Social Movements is Friday 14th February 2014.

See below further information and submission details.

If you could share this with colleagues and networks it would be very much appreciated.

Kind Regards

Abigail and Giovanni

 - Past and present collective actions
- Social and political theory

About the conference
Social movements shape the political, social and economic climate not only of the country in which they originated but also in others around the world. From an academic point of view, the study of political mobilization is an area that is subject to, and benefits from, interdisciplinary perspectives.
Sponsors
The conference is sponsored by the British Psychological Society – Social Psychology Section (http://socpsy.bps.org.uk http://socpsy.bps.org.uk/  ) and Barry Amiel & Norman Melburn trust (http://www.amielandmelburn.org.uk/  ).
