Perspectives on Conflict:
An Interdisciplinary Postgraduate Conference
8th & 9th September 2005
Presenting a two day interdisciplinary conference for postgraduate students of the arts, media and social sciences to be held at the University of Salford
This conference aims to consider current and changing perspectives on conflict in cultural, social, political and military life. The intention is to stimulate debate and generate fresh understandings through interdisciplinary exchange. We welcome papers in fields related to law, media, politics, sociology, literature, philosophy, psychology, history, military history and the performing arts.
The conference intends to address these intersecting themes:
Spaces and Places of Conflict
Practices and Dynamics of Conflict
Mediations and Resolutions of Conflict
Images and Representations of Conflict
Concepts and Understandings of Conflict
Abstracts of 250 words are invited for contributions of 20 minutes. We aim to provide a supportive and friendly environment where postgraduates can gain experience in presenting their work and meet fellow researchers. The conference also welcomes participants who do not wish to present.
