London Conference in Critical Thought (LCCT),
Friday & Saturday 5-6 July 2019

Goldsmiths, University of London

We are delighted to be able to invite you to the 8th annual London Conference in Critical Thought (LCCT), hosted and supported by the Centre for Invention and Social Process (CISP) at the Department of Sociology at Goldsmiths. The conference offers a space for an interdisciplinary exchange of ideas for scholars who work with critical traditions and concerns.

Central to the vision of the conference is an inter-institutional, non-hierarchal, and accessible event that makes a particular effort to embrace emergent thought and the participation of emerging academics, fostering new avenues for critically-oriented scholarship and collaboration.
