Academic Conferences
To make the most of my time as a PhD Researcher, I'm thrilled to be given the opportunity to share my on-going work with others in the academic community.
​
This page is dedicated to those conferences.
An investigation into dual heritage, conservatism and free speech: A British Indian perspective.
British Intellectual Conservatism: Past and Present Conference on the Free Speech and Conservatism panel.
In this paper, I examined two things simultaneously - being British and Indian, being conservative and therefore supporting free speech.
​
The inspiration for the paper derives from existing literature on ethnicity and race being analysed through a post-colonial lens which have Marxist assumptions and due to the left-leaning nature of academia, is largely left unchallenged.
​
To collect my tentative conclusions I have launched a online mixed-methods questionnaire.
The Legacy of Margaret Thatcher and British Indian Identity: A Complicated Relationship
Margaret Thatcher: Her Life, Work and Legacy Conference on the Identity and Nationalism panel
In this paper I assessed attitudes towards Margaret Thatcher by presenting primary data.
​
The data I presented was made up of qualitative semi-structured elite interviews and quantitative questionnaire data. The conclusions presented at this conference were tentative.
