Josephine Harmon speaks at British Library US Election Conference
12 November 2020
Recorded in the immediate aftermath of the US General Election in early November 2020, the US Politics Today 2020 Conference was put together with advanced UK school students in mind
We would like to congratulate our PhD candidate Josephine Harmon on her recent appearance at this conference organised by the Eccles Centre for American Studies at the British Library
The conference covered central issues and questions encountered on A-level US Politics syllabi, with contributions from experts covering the elections, interest groups, the Presidency and the Supreme Court, as well as a special conversation with two former members of Congress, George Holding (R-NC, 2013-21) and Loretta Sanchez (D-CA, 1997-2017). The conference was organised by the Eccles Centre for American Studies at the British Library, one of the major research centres for the study and analysis of US politics in the UK.
Josephine is currently pursuing her PhD studies at UCL Institute of the Americas. Her research is supervised by Dr Nick Witham and Dr Nadia Hilliard.
