Saturday the 4th of December 2021, will be the first-ever conference day of the Punk Scholars Network Netherlands, founded early this year.
It is also the first day of the 4-11 December worldwide conference of the Punk Scholars Network. We have joint organised the day with the Denmark/Germany PSN affiliate. Our conference day schedule is complete. So, unfortunately, we have to refer new paper proposals to other days of the global conference.
Scholarly papers on punk by authors from the Netherlands and from abroad will be read. There will be panels, films, and food.
Ticksets are available: https://www.facebook.com/events/1064137747733122
Due to Covid restrictions we have a shorter programmme than planned.
