CALL FOR PAPERS
Beyond Vimy Ridge: War and Peace in Canadian History
A one-day conference organised by the BACS History Group at Canada House on Friday 13 July 2007, 10.30am-5.00pm.
Taking as its starting point the 90th anniversary of Vimy Ridge, the conference will explore the impact of war and peace on Canadian history and its relationship with Canada's assumed role as peacemaker and peacekeeper.
Papers (minimum 30 minutes) are invited on any aspect of the main theme of the conference, including the broad theme of war and peace and specific events and issues, eg the South African War, First and Second World Wars, Korea, Suez Crisis, Gulf Wars, Afghanistan, etc. Although the conference is sponsored by the BACS History Group, papers and perspectives from other disciplines will be welcomed.
Registration will be £20, payable on the day (no charge for presenters).
