Methodological Challenges in the 21st Century: 30 June; streaming #socmethods

Diversity and community is the next seminar in the University of Sheffield Social Sciences Faculty series: Social Science Research Questions and Methodological Challenges in the 21st Century. Each seminar is a couple of hours long: I and Marshall Dozier (University of Edinburgh) are presenting at the one in October.
If you happen to be in Sheffield you can join the seminar face to face (in ICOSS, University of Sheffield). Otherwise it should be streamed live, and a recording of the first session is available.
"The seminars will involve researchers discussing the kinds of research questions they are beginning to ask and looking at the methodological approaches and challenges that these questions pose."
