I only came across this ESRC-funded unit as I saw a job advert today for a post within it, so I can't say I know a lot about this place.
What I can say is that I've had a good trawl through their website and picked up the essence of what they're trying to do. One of the central problems in social psychology is how we model the impact of larger structures on individuals;
The range of working papers, with stuff like how we value public sector broadcasting (talk to Liam for lots on this - his PhD was in that area) and how concepts of financial prudence have changed, for example - struck me as interesting. I'd recommend people to have a scoot round the relevant pages. I myself am going to have a look at the paper on Ronald Inglehart (my PhD thesis area).
