Following the international workshop, On the Identity Trail held an

Bologna. The internal workshop was dedicated to the discussion of
draft papers for the ID Trail project’s final publication. On the
Identity Trail researchers participating in the workshop included: Jane
Bailey, Jacquelyn Burkell, Rob Carey, Jennifer Chandler, Steven Davis,
Daphne Gilbert, Marsha Hanen, George Tomlinson, Ian Kerr, Philippa
Lawson, Mary O’Donoghue, David Matheson, Stephanie Perrin and Valerie
Steeves. Students participating in the workshop were: Jeremy
Clark, Angela Long, Carole Lucock, Shoshana Magnet, Jena McGill, Jason
Millar and Anne Uteck. The students were selected to participate
in the workshop through a competitive process in which students
submitted abstracts that were reviewed and assessed by a five-person
panel. Also participating in the workshop were A. Michael
Froomkin, Professor of Law at the University of Miami School of Law,
and Charles Raab, Professor in Government at the University of
Edinburgh School of Social & Political Studies.

The goal of the workshop was to help researchers and students develop
their book chapters by receiving input from a number of readers from
different disciplines who have taken time and care to review and
consider their ideas. The two-day workshop comprised of sessions
at which small groups of 5-6 people discussed one person's paper.
The composition of these groups was designed to facilitate
inter-disciplinary feedback for each paper, to maximize opportunities
to work with different people over the course of the two days and to
accommodate individual interests. At these sessions the person
whose paper is being reviewed was responsible for leading the session,
ensuring that they received the kind of feedback they were
seeking.
The workshop also included a session to discuss each section of the
final publication. This session provided an opportunity for
discussion of the other papers in participants’ respective book
sections, so that each person who is contributing a piece to the
section of the book had a stronger sense of what others are
contributing, thus assisting in making each section of the book more
internally cohesive.
