Here is the information of the next international conference of the
International Network for the History of Hospitals to be held in Barcelona
(Spain) in 2009.
INTERNATIONAL NETWORK FOR THE HISTORY OF HOSPITALS
FIFTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
HOSPITALS AND COMMUNITIES
DEPT. OF HISTORY OF SCIENCE
CSIC, INSTITUCIÓN MILÀ I FONTANALS
BARCELONA, SPAIN
APRIL 2009
CALL FOR PAPERS
The fifth international conference of the International Network for the
History of Hospitals is inspired by the success of our meetings in
Norwich, Verona, Montreal and London. As in the past, our aim is to
address new issues and themes in the history of hospitals within a wider
social context. Indeed, all sessions will examine the impact of hospitals
upon the nature and role of different communities and the ways in which
hospitals were affected by the various communities they served. Given the
location of the conference, one of the underlying themes will be hospitals
in the Mediterranean. However, since we also wish to encourage a broad
comparative approach, we positively welcome proposals for papers on any
period or place dealing with any of the following four key themes:
(1) Regions: Politics and Identity
(2) The Local Economy and Employment
(3) Isolation and Disease
(4) War: Military and Naval Hospitals
All papers will be delivered in English and be no more than 30 minutes in
length. We would particularly welcome applications from postgraduate
students and new researchers for whom it is hoped a subsidy will be
available.
Abstracts
Please email an abstract of approximately 250 words, together with a brief
CV of not more 250 words, to Dr. Teresa Huguet Termes of CSIC-IMF
([log in to unmask]).
Deadline: 15 October 2007 at the latest.
