Dear Colleagues,
You are invited to submit an abstract for possible inclusion in the 2019 WESIPS (Warfare, Environment, Social Inequality, and Pro-Sociability) Biennial Conference.
WESIPS Conference dates: May 23-25, 2019
Location: Center for Cross-Cultural Study in Seville, Spain
Abstract submission deadline: October 1, 2018 at 11:59 PM (EST)
Keynote speaker: Dr. Timothy Earle (Northwestern)
WESIPS Conference Description and Goals:
Over millennia, warfare, environmental degradation, and social inequality have brought much suffering to humankind. In an effort to facilitate interdisciplinary cross-fertilization, WESIPS brings together a cadre of internationally recognized scholars to address the underlying causes of warfare, environmental degradation, the advent of social complexity, and social inequality from a host of interdisciplinary and theoretical perspectives. Setting the stage for the cumulation of knowledge, this symposium seeks to uncover effective solutions which promote peace, altruism, cooperation, social equality, biodiversity, and sustainable use of natural resources.
This interdisciplinary conference seeks papers addressing one or more of the following topics: prehistoric/modern warfare, ritual violence, biodiversity, natural resource utilization, past and present cases of environmental degradation/sustainability, egalitarianism, advent of social complexity, social inequality, conflict resolution, and prosocial behavior.
For more information and/or to submit an abstract see attached flier or visit the WESIPS Conference website: http://www.spanishstudies.org/wesips-conference.html
Looking forward to seeing you at WESIPS 2019!
