The 'long '60s' are in focus for the second episode in this series of Call My Supervisor! as we welcome doctoral candidate James Mowatt to discuss his research into that famous era.While many recall the period (broadly defined as 1955 - 1975) as being one defined by great social change, solidarity and national renewal, James's research looks a little closer and speaks to those who were there. Specifically, James is researching the political economy of social and political movements in London during that time, in order to interrogate the political theory of solidarity.We also speak to James, from the Department of Political Economy at King's College London, about returning to academia after a period working in the private sector, the personal motivations behind his choice of research and his advice for those considering further study too.
