Call for PhD SUMMER SCHOOL – funding available

 

RADICAL PROTEST IN CONSTITUTIONAL DEMOCRACY

 

Centre for Citizenship, Civil Society and Rule of Law (CISRUL)

at the University of Aberdeen

 

Academic workshop: Monday 6^th – Tuesday 7^th June

PhD summer school: Wednesday 8^th – Thursday 9^th June

 

Deadline for application: 30 March 2016

 

Protest is a hallowed right within constitutional democracy, allowing for political expression outside the electoral process and established public sphere channels such as the media. But to what extent and in what ways can and/or should constitutional democracy accommodate more radical forms of protest, and particularly illegal forms? What do particular varieties of protest reveal (empirically and normatively) about the scope and limits of constitutional democracy? And how do organizations which use radical protest in a constitutional democracy relate to those which choose not to?

 

CISRUL is seeking applications for advanced PhD students in any discipline to attend the PhD summer school at the University of Aberdeen. The PhD students will attend the academic workshop on 6-7 June, followed by the summer school on 8-9 June.
