A workshop on history, literature and activism led by Srećko Horvat*

What is the future for the EU? What is the future for committed Europeans in Britain? How can we come together with Europeans elsewhere to build a Europe we remain part of and believe in; one that learns from the past without becoming stuck in the past, and looks to the future with openness and hope? Building on the themes explored in Poetry from the future: Why a global liberation movement is our civilisation’s last chance, Srećko Horvat will lead a workshop on theoretical and practical approaches to modern activism.

The workshop will take place on Wednesday 6 November, 2019 from 2-5.30pm in Room 1.03, The Exchange, Bush House
King’s College London – Strand Campus.
