The Centre for Social and Political Thought brings together faculty from across a range of departments at the University of Sussex, including Philosophy, Sociology, History and English, a testament to the Centre's interdisciplinary origins and a unique feature of research at Sussex.

Core faculty teach on the MA in Social and Political Thought, while all faculty supervise doctoral research and participate in the vibrant research culture of the Centre which includes the highly successful research seminar series.
