This session explores the cutting-edge anthropological scholarship on specifically political violence, including state terror, genocide, war, and shadows of historical violence, such as transatlantic slavery.

Participants will understand the methodological underpinnings of sampling in quantitative research in social sciences. They will learn to select appropriate sampling procedures, evaluate and critique sampling plans.

The training will provide students with some important points of reflection for their current practice: but aims also to help them navigate their role and responsibilities as they emerge into employment as a researcher (with a range of research employers in mind).

Multilevel modelling is an umbrella term for a wide range of statistical models appropriate for clustered data. In this short course, we will introduce the main concepts and theoretical issues around multilevel modelling.

This workshop will explore the use of comparative case study design. We will discuss what case studies are and how we need to think carefully about the boundaries of any single case. We will then discuss which points of comparison are being selected in order to build theoretical extension from comparing case studies.

This is an informative and interactive session that considers the value of creativity in research.

This session offers an overview of the media, how it works and why.

While your PhD may be a lonely and autonomous endeavour, most academic writing is done collaboratively. The outcome of this session will be a title and a paper abstract written collaboratively during the session.

This session is an introduction to critical anthropological approaches to time and historicity, as well as archival methods.
