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.
