James Anderson gave an invited talk: ‘Territoriality and Democracy: from ethno-national conflict to democratic trespass’to a Workshop on 'Democracy with(out) nations? Old and new foundations for political communities', organised by the International Relations Department of the University of the Basque Country and the International Institute for the Sociology of Law in Onati. It relates to issues of conflict management/resolution in ‘divided cities’, and from this visit Prof Anderson is developing a paper on Bilbao/Bilbo as ‘an exception which proves the rule’ about how ‘divided cities’ have developed.
