Drinking Dilemmas: Space, Culture & Identity Conference
Cardiff Metropolitan University,12th-13th December 2013
Despite recent advances, academic studies of alcohol still frequently struggle to reconcile the individual, social and cultural pleasures and benefits of drinking and drunkenness with concerns for public order, health and wellbeing and social policy. Drinking practices are diverse and are spatially and culturally defined. What we drink, how we drink, where we drink, who we drink with and, indeed, when we decide not to drink may all be informed by our identity as constituted through social class, gender, ethnicity, sexuality , age, religion and (dis)ability.
Keynote Speakers:
