Earlier today I stumbled across the Battle of Ideas coming up next month (October 30-31). Organised by the Institute of Ideas and hosted by the Royal College of Art, the Battle of Ideas is a two-day (conveniently at the weekend) festival of various debates, spanning arts and culture to lifestyle and society to science and environment. The festival, now in its sixth year, will in total host a whopping 75 debates held in various spots around the RCA site. Tickets are on sale on the site for the weekend (£35-£75 concessions/standard) or individual days (£20-£45 concessions/standard). On the site, you can view details of each debate and see recommended reading for some pre-debate swotting. With a wealth of topics and debates there’s sure to be something to tickle your fancy. So far I have my eye on Too much, too young – why is policy obsessed with teenage mums?, Generation Wars: Baby Boomers versus Generation Y and Bikinis, burqas and flat brown shoes – female role models in the 21st Century.
