David Cotterrell

Professor David Cotterrell is affiliated with the University of Brighton. His inaugural lecture titled Empathy and risk (2016) explores the intersection of empathy failure, risk perception, and social disintegration. His research uses experimental art to interrogate polarized societal dynamics and the erosion of dialogue.

Research focuses on:

• Staged challenges to empathy prior to conflict
• Risk as catalyst for partial truths
• Loss of pluralist narratives in divided communities
