Key themes will include:
The navy and national or imperial identity
The aims, methods and consequences of naval warfare
The navy and popular culture
The naval hero
The navy and technology
The navy and issues of class, gender, race or age
The navy and politics, finance or the state

Social histories of the navy and of recruiting
The navy in peacetime
Please submit proposals of 300 words for individual papers, along with a short CV to research@rmg.co.uk . Panel proposals are also encouraged, though preference will be given to those that display disciplinary or chronological diversity.
