The theme for this speculative lunch is the relationship between nature and wellbeing. Scholars and practitioners are invited to this informal meeting, which aims to discuss disciplinary specific understandings of both ‘nature’ and ‘wellbeing’, and to explore their intersection within their own field of expertise.

‘The mixed constitution, its classical conception, decline, and revival Genealogy of limited political authority.’
