WELCOME
Welcome to the British Sociological Association Annual Conference 2018 at Northumbria University in Newcastle
upon Tyne. The theme of the 2018 conference is ‘Identity, Community and Social Solidarity’. It is a pleasure to
announce that Kimberlé Crenshaw, Omar Khan and Gregor McLennan will address the conference in three thought-
provoking plenaries on this main theme.

In addition to these plenaries, delegates have the opportunity to attend presentations on a wide range of topics. The
conference is organised in streams designed to represent the major areas of research with which sociologists are
engaged. These streams are open to any topic on which people are currently working, enabling delegates to meet with
colleagues in their areas of interest and explore a variety of topics as well. Many of the streams also include a Stream
Plenary which brings key speakers together to reflect on the conference theme from particular sociological perspectives.

There are also a number of open streams (Frontiers) providing a forum for new, innovative and multidisciplinary work.
This year, these streams include topics such as psychosocial studies, publishing workshops, disability studies and many
more, further enriching the wealth of topics to be explored. This conference format results in a rich and challenging
programme and it is hoped that every delegate will find the same this year.

A conference of this magnitude and breadth depends on the efforts of many committed individuals. Great thanks are
due to all those who have helped with the organisation of the conference, particularly the coordinators of the conference
streams:

buy these and individual tickets on board the bus. Go North East branded buses take passengers to some of the region’s
favourite attractions and are easy to spot in town. Look out for the Quaylink buses connecting city-centre attractions,
