SCMR Talking Heads
During COVID lockdown in the UK we had to postpone a number of in-person events. As well as holding seminars over Zoom, SCMR director, Paul, presented a series of 'Talking Heads' for YouTube. Although in-person events are back on, video versions of journal article and book summaries (and other research material) are probably here to stay. So, if you'd like to star in an SCMR Talking Heads video, get in touch! (migration@sussex.ac.uk).

- Ben Rogaly, in conversation with Tahir Zaman
In the fourth SCMR-JEMS Talking Head, SCMR Co-Director chats with (SCMR) about Ben’s motivations for and thoughts on his new book (Manchester University Press 2020). Drawing on over one hundred stories and eight years of research in a provincial English city, Ben asks what that city (and indeed England as a whole) stands for in the Brexit era. He argues for the continuing existence of non-elite cosmopolitanism, a central concept in the book and one that he summarises in in Discover Society and in his response to reviewers in a in the journal Antipode.
