Neil Forbes, Coventry University, UK (2023-2026)
I am a Professor of International History, and I have held several senior, academic posts at Coventry University. My research focuses on the interaction of foreign policy with the practices of business, especially those of multinational enterprise, in the context of the interwar, international crisis and the coming of the Second World War. I also study the relationship between Europe’s rich cultural heritage and its peoples, particularly how the tangible and intangible legacies of conflict and war underpin the multiple identities of Europe and its nation states. As Principal Investigator or Co-ordinator, I have led several international research projects funded by national and pan-European agencies. I am a member of several professional and advisory bodies, and act in this capacity for UK Research and Innovation and European bodies such as Europe’s Joint Programming Initiative.
