War and Society: The social and cultural impact of War from ancient times to the present day
March 29th-31st 2012 at the University of Calgary, Canada

This conference aims to address the impact of war on the societies, cultures and individuals.
Proposals/abstracts should be no longer than 250 words and should be sent to:
Graham Wrightson (gcwright@ucalgary.ca) or Waldemar Heckel (heckelw@ucalgary.ca).
The deadline for submission of proposals is February 15th, 2012.
