The social sciences are talking more and more about the importance of interdisciplinary research. Dr Maël Lavenaire will show the value of bringing together sociology and social history to better understand colonial history, drawing on his study of social transformation in the French West Indies after World War II and his new research project on continuing social-racial inequalities in Jamaica, Guadeloupe and Martinique since the abolitions of slavery. Taking us into the colonial histories of the British and French empires, he demonstrates how an interdisciplinary approach can give insight into social change in the post-slavery societies of plantation America.

Maël Lavenaire is Research Fellow in the International Inequalities Institute at LSE, www.lse.ac.uk/International-Inequalities/People/Ma…
