Military Welfare History Network International Conference: Rethinking Concepts, Terms and Topics

University of Graz, Austria
Free, Registration required

The fourth international conference of the Military Welfare History Network, which will take place for the first time at the University of Graz (Austria) in 2025, aims to explicitly focus on the theoretical, conceptual and research-practical dynamics associated with this reorientation. It has been organise around the theme of ‘Rethinking Concepts, Terms and Topics’ (of military welfare history). The conference aims to reflect about these changes in studies of care and welfare practices in military contexts and to discuss older and new concepts and their implementation in research. Referring to a problem-orientated approach, an explicitly interdisciplinary and trans-epochal orientation will be taken.

This event is open to members and non-members of the Network and there will be no charge for attendance. The deadline for submissions is 30 November 2024 and all submissions and inquiries can be sent to the organisers at [email protected]. Individual papers or panels of three papers plus commentary can be submitted. Each paper abstract should be a maximum of 250 words and should be accompanied by a 50-word biography.
