Conference Report

For our second consecutive year, the European Conference on Arts & Humanities was held alongside The European Conference Literature & Librarianship, The European Conference on Media, Communication & Film and The European Conference on Cultural Studies at Thistle Brighton, Brighton, United Kingdom From July 13 – July 16, 2015. This final conference weekend was a very successful conclusion to our third European Conference Series.

Around 165 delegates from over 35 countries gathered in Brighton, United Kingdom came together to study and analysis the different expressions of power, from serious existential questions at the personal level to complex social and even political problems at a wider level amongst the interdisciplinary approaches of Film, Media and Communications, Librarianship, Literature, the Arts and Humanities with the resultant exchanges stimulating synergies that crossed national, religious, cultural, social and artistic boundaries, a mission central to the global vision of IAFOR.
