The School of Social Sciences and Philosophy's Meet the Expert series gives our researchers the chance to speak directly about the work they do. Each short video takes a question at the heart of their research and explores it in their own words, revealing how the ideas emerging from the School connect to the issues and debates that matter in the world today. New videos are released throughout the year across the School's social channels and are collected here in full.
