Past in the Present Research Group
Description
The Past in the Present Research Group at Brunel University of London describes itself as a diverse history-focused research group with broad interests and skills in history and history-related disciplines and subjects. Its researchers study a wide variety of aspects of the past, united by a focus on global communities, and its members are particularly interested in the origins, impact and legacy of war and military occupation, the politics and memory of decolonisation, slavery and its legacies, the history of borders and belonging, new forms of politics, marginalised communities and issues of representation.
The group says it engages with transnational issues spanning across Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and the Americas, and reports a research seminar series involving internal and external speakers, discussions of work-in-progress papers and article workshops. Brunel's History research page lists it among the research groups and centres of Politics and History.
