Abstract:
How do we investigate structural inequalities in Scotland’s past?

The talk will be followed by a Q&A session. Attendees are also welcome to stay for a free drinks reception from approximately 7pm where you can discuss the lecture and other interests with the speaker, Society Fellows and other attendees.
