This episode considers the perspectives of Barbados and Australia, as former and present global realms of the British monarchy, and possibilities for republican futures. With Dr Allison Ramsay, (University of the West Indies) and
Dr Holly Randell-Moon(Charles Sturt University).
Welcome to Surviving Society Presents - “the global power of the British monarchy’ In these episodes, we will be looking to challenge existing conversations about the British monarchy. Often in popular discourse, the monarchy is taken for granted as a part of British culture. With expert guests, the podcast tells a story of the ‘other side’ of monarchy. From its links to Empire and colonialism, to issues of wealth accumulation and nationalism, the series sets out to disrupt common sense understandings and undertake a critical analysis of the Firm and its various intersections with inequality.
This series has been executively produced by Laura Clancy
