This event was a small (30 people) workshop designed to enhance our understanding of hegemony by bringing in selected academics from outside the university. The papers presented were works in progress and the aim was to use the knowledge and experience of the invited academics to clarify our own positions on this challenging field of inquiry. Discussants critiqued each paper with a view to bringing out certain common themes. The paper writers were staff and postgraduate students from the Faculty of Arts at the University of Wollongong.
