The Identity Politics Working Group brings together graduate students from various epistemological, methodological, and disciplinary approaches who all share a common interest in identity politics broadly defined. The goal is to develop cooperative relationships among the relatively large number of students who study this topic and related topics (potentially ranging from citizenship to ethnic violence to party politics) from different approaches. Presenters are drawn from students and faculty at both MIT and other institutions, and membership is open to students from the Departments of Political Science, Economics, and Urban Studies and Planning. The working group is advised by faculty members Roger Petersen and Melissa Nobles. For more information please contact Andrew Radin and Reo Matsuzaki. We will be meeting at the 6th Floor Conference Room at the Center for International Studies, located at 292 Main Street in Cambridge.
