THE INTELLECTUAL
What is an intellectual? What codes does an intellectual live by? And can the intellectual and the academic ever be reconciled?
Laurie Taylor talks to Steve Fuller, Professor of Sociology at the University of Warwick and author of The Intellectual, to find out why the intellectual is still important and why she or he has a rosy future beyond the ivory towers of academia.
GYPSIES
How have the gypsies of Eastern Europe dealt with the traumatic events of their recent past, from their persecution by the Nazis to the fall of the communist block and their subsequent loss of security?
Laurie Taylor is joined by Professor Istvan Pogany author of The Roma Café: Human Rights and The Plight of the Romani and Dr Michael Stewart from the Department Anthropology at University College London who has just published a paper called Remembering Without Commemoration: The Mnemonics and Politics of Holocaust Memories among European Roma and is soon to publish his book on the Roma Holocaust.
