> About this event
> 
> A serious consideration of the relationship between ethnography and political theory requires us to understand the ways in which ethnography might change and indeed, is changing, academic political theorizing. Panellists will reflect, in particular, on the value of ethnography in engaging subordinate group’s struggles and the potential to enrich political theory in the process. They also aim to work through some of the practical challenges of whether and how ethnography can contribute to decolonizing political theory, what that might mean for the norms of writing political theory, and what it might mean to theorise with rather than about marginalized groups.
> Brief presentations by the panellists will be followed by a Q&A session. All welcome, and especially graduate students!
> Panellists:
> Paul Apostolidis, London School of Economics, UK
> Humeira Iqtidar, King’s College London, UK
> Sagnik Dutta, O.P. Jindal University, India
> Rebeccah Nelems, Royal Roads University/ McGill University, Canada
> Banu Bargu, University of Santa Cruz, USA
> Organised by The Department of Political Economy at King's College London and Grounded Theory Network

> Hi Paul,

> Thanks for reaching out—and very exciting that you’re coming back to visit!  I’ll definitely be around. I’m not teaching this quarter so may not need to be on campus often, but can def come out to meet with you, and hang out over food/drinks/whatever else you guys are cooking up. I will primarily be doing DGS-related admin stuff so my schedule is relatively open, mostly revolving around personnel meetings (Mondays 11-12) and all kinds of stuff that comes up with students.

>  And, if you are going to be in the LA area for any part of your trip, please let me know.  It’d be great to hang out!
