CFA – Body and Care in the Ordeal of the War

Body and Care in the Ordeal of the War
A Socio-historical Perspective on East-Central and East-Southern Europe in the 20th-21st Centuries

This conference is part of activities conducted by “War and Society in Central and Eastern Europe (20th-21st centuries)” Research Alliance (EURETES, EHESS – MESR) that bring together CERCEC-EHESS, Charles University in Prague and Lviv Center of Urban History. It is hosted and supported by CEFRES, French Research Center in Humanities and Social Sciences.

Deadline for submission:  May 5, 2025
When: 12-14 November 2025
Where: CEFRES, Prague
Language: english and others (see below)

The aim of this conference is to fill an important gap in our understanding of the relation between war, violence-affected and thus fragilized bodies and care in East-Central and East-Southern European societies in a long-term perspective, that of the armed conflicts of the 20th-21st centuries.

Participants are invited to give particular consideration to the following themes:

  • Body and mental health,
  • Hygiene, nutrition, epidemics,
  • Healthcare institutions and actors,
  • Care provision, regimes, and infrastructure,
  • Material culture of care,
  • Mixed economies of welfare,
  • Circulations,
  • Agency and rights of the cared-for

The conference will include a workshop specifically dedicated to an interdisciplinary discussion on sources and methods; submissions should point to these as well.

See the full text of the call here.

All applications of 700 words maximum should be sent by May 5, 2025 to the organizers here-bellow mentioned.

Applications can be sent in European languages other than English, although correct understanding of english to enable shared discussion is essential.
