Both Conflict Studies and Memory Studies have, in recent years, become of increasing interest across the Humanities and Social Sciences, as they generate compelling dialogues between fields of study and build on the interdisciplinary turn in contemporary academe.
This event will create a space that will allow for two things: the development of opportunities for discussion across academic and cultural spheres and the inclusion of voices from outside academia that can provide new insight and potential empirical challenges to theoretical discussion.
The event will gather together new researchers, and is especially designed to bring together individuals from disciplines that do not traditionally intersect. We are seeking interested participants from across and outside the academic spectrum to contribute to the creation of new and productive dialogues.
