You are invited to join us for the second event in the 'Situating Consumption' series. This round-table discussion focuses on 'Navigating the Business School' and brings together Sociologists located in Business Schools across the UK.

- What are the impacts for Sociological research and practice, when the Sociology of Consumption relocates?
