Speaker: Irina Stadniciuc Doctoral Prison Researcher & Editor in Chief Ethnography is Dead.

We will also hear more about Irina’s editor in chief role, running the Ethnography Club at LJMU and more on the recently launched zine ‘Ethnography Is Dead’ https://openjournals.ljmu.ac.uk/EiD/index, . This session will introduce participants to a different format through which they can publish their work.
