This research group fosters an explicitly interdisciplinary approach to the historicised understanding of political thought. Mirroring the broad constellation of disciplines participating in CEU’s Advanced Certificate in Political Thought, participation is welcomed from students and faculty across the university. Those within Gender Studies, History, International Relations, Medieval Studies, Philosophy, Political Science and Sociology are especially encouraged to join. It should also be emphasised that MA candidates are warmly welcomed within this egalitarian intellectual community.
The History of Political Thought Interdisciplinary Research Group (HPT) offers opportunities to engage with those in CEU pursuing related research from multiple methodological and normative perspectives and to discuss one’s own research with such a broad audience. HPT will meet regularly to discuss the ongoing research projects of its members, of specially invited CEU faculty and of external speakers.
As a new research group, located within an expanding and dynamic area of interest for the CEU, input on the form and focus of meetings is highly welcomed. HPT will seek to strike a balance between consideration of methods (welcoming contextualist, sociological, post-structuralist and Global turn approaches, as well as those outside of these) and practice.
