Global and Transregional Studies Research Group

Our Research

The Global and Transregional Studies Research Group (GTS) brings together an interdisciplinary group of scholars at the College of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities and the University of Lincoln who share research interests in international, transregional, and global studies.

We undertake interdisciplinary research with both historical and contemporary approaches that foregrounds the prominent role of the international, transregional and/or global in reshaping understandings and representations of power, society and culture from early antiquity to our current times. From the vantage of our expertise across the arts, humanities and other cognate disciplines, we hold such conceptual designations up to scrutiny, and nurture new understandings of the ‘international’, ‘transregional’ and ‘global’ that challenge the asymmetries and inequalities that make up our globalised world today.   

The GTS is coordinated by Dr Adonis Li and Dr Emily Timms, both from the School of Humanities and Heritage.
