Dear All,
Can I make a plea for possible speakers at a
conference (possibly) to be held next Easter
(2004) on the: -
Demography of War 1911 to 1951.
Basically anything considered on how Britain
was changed during the years 1911 to 1951.
Vis: -
+ Illegitimacy.
+ Women's without Men - enforced spinsterhood
1914 to 1944.
+ The evacuation of 1939
+ The 1939 enumeration
+ Fertility in the inter-war period.
+ The 1951 fertility census.
+ The 1948 Royal Commission on Population.
This would be for the Local Population Studies
Society. Most of our members are not academics
although most are professionals with degrees
or similar qualifications but NOT IN
statistics or demography.
The standard of paper would need to be at the
level of a well-educated reader of the
Guardian, Scotsman or Belfast Telegraph.
IE. Interesting and informative BUT NOT TO
statistical or mathematical.
