Political theory at Exeter is distinguished by its diversity, collegiality and engagement between different approaches.
Exeter now has one of the largest groups of political theorists in the UK. It has a long-standing reputation as a centre of expertise in the history of political ideas and discourse and is the home of the discipline’s leading journal, History of Political Thought. Exeter also has research strengths in analytic and continental approaches within contemporary political theory.
The intellectual core of the political theory programme is its weekly seminar, which mixes original papers and textual readings. The seminar is attended by MA and PhD students, staff and visiting scholars.
The Political Thought Conference will be held at St Catherine’s College, Oxford, 5-7th January. Download a registration form.
