PIR Academic Event: ‘Selling Secession, Selling Scotland’ with Dr Judith Sijstermans

Tuesday 20 September 2022 at 5pm - 9pm

Join us for the first Academic Talk of the Year: ‘Selling Secession, Selling Scotland’ with Dr Judith Sijstermans

"To what extent did the SNP and Scottish Government seek international recognition for Scotland in 2014? And what is the way forward for Scottish international networks as the campaign towards a second independence referendum builds? In this talk, Dr. Judith Sijstermans will explore these questions and compare Scotland’s experience with Catalonia’s in 2017."

The usual format is a talk by one of our academics or guest speakers followed by a chance for questions.

Location: NK1, New Kings, High St, Aberdeen AB24 3UB

After, those who are interested can join us at the Bobbin for a relaxed social.
