Professor Korosteleva is invited to launch her new OUP book at the EUI, Transnational Governance School, as part of the AGMOW project, led by Prof. Trine Flockhart. Discussants will include Professor David Chandler (Westminster, UK) and Liv Nielson (SDU, Denmark).

This workshop aims to combine theoretical and empirical scholarship on capitalist society and its current and potential transformations, on the one hand, with theoretical and empirical scholarship on the roles of power, democracy, and empowerment in relation to the collective socio-political imagination. To what extent do ideas and imaginaries either obstruct or unleash processes of social change? (How) can the socio-po-litical imagination be democratised, empowered, and freed from ideological distortion? What does this suggest about prospects of radical transformations towards sustainability ?

This workshop is organised as part of the Sustainability Spotlight, under the thematic priority - Radical Imaginaries, led by Marit Hammond (PAIS), Graeme Macdonald (ECLS) and Elena Korosteleva (IGSD). Everyone is welcome!

The Sustainability Spotlight continues its annual call for the Warwick Sustainability Forum - open to all researchers across Warwick! The forum will bring together the sustainability-focused community of researchers to present their work on the identified thematic priorities - Circular Economy & Behaviour; Radical Imaginaries & Transformations; and Planetary Health & Sustainable Food - and ECR work, and collectively plan priorities for 2027, discussing them with a high-level panel of sustainability stakeholders.

Everyone is welcome!
