Talking Culture: Public Discussion Group

Talking Culture is a series of friendly discussions where curious people can come together to think, talk, and explore today’s major issues.

The first session focuses on public and private space in Liverpool city centre. Here, many buildings and spaces are privately owned, which raises fundamental questions about what - and whom - the city is for.

Dr Paul Jones from the University of Liverpool’s Department of Sociology, Social Policy and Criminology will frame the discussion around who can do what, when, and with whom.

Future discussion topics under consideration include the impact of AI and social media, the meaning of social class today, contemporary masculinity, and the legal status of drugs.
