The LSE Department of Government is pleased to announce its 12th annual Graduate Conference in Political Theory, taking place on May 28th and 29th, 2026. The conference will be held entirely in-person.
This year’s conference will follow a workshop model, fostering deep engagement and constructive feedback on research from graduate scholars. Each presenter will be assigned a commentator followed by an open Q&A.
We welcome submissions from graduate students in political theory and related disciplines. Papers can engage with normative, historical, analytical, or critical approaches, as well as interdisciplinary perspectives.
Lunch will be provided for speakers on both days. Coffee, refreshments, and a drinks reception will also be included. Unfortunately, we are unable to cover transportation and/or accommodation costs.
We are also delighted to feature two keynote speakers, who will participate in workshop discussions: Sean Ingham (UC San Diego) and Shuk Ying Chan (UCL).
More details to follow.
