The aim of the the seminar series is to provide a space for faculty members, invited scholars and everyone interested in questions of populism, illiberalism, and conservatism to discuss their ongoing research, learn from each other and plan future collaborations. The seminar series organisers are particularly interested in pushing forward research on illiberalism, conservatism and populism from the perspective of humanities.

The seminar series CIP is organised in collaboration between three departments at the Faculty of Humanities: Department of Cultural Sciences (contact person Olga Sasunkevich), Department of Languages and Literatures (Andrea Castro) and Department of Literature, History of Ideas, and Religion (Hjalmar Falk).
