DOING GENDER IN HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE: THEORY AND PRACTICE

The ESSHC Women and Gender network invites proposals for individual papers and sessions (3-4 speakers, a chair and a commentator) focussing on interconnections between practice and theory in applying gender-sensitive historical analysis. We would like to discuss the following questions during our forthcoming conference:

Movements for social change have often preceded or immediately followed periods of warfare. The temporal proximity of social movements and warfare raises several interesting questions. Among others, in what ways have movements for social change been linked to periods of violent conflict? How might war contribute to the expansion or limitation of rights for marginalized and oppressed groups? How does warfare shape the attitudes and strategies of social activists in local, transnational, and global contexts?

« Dès lendemain de la bataille, hommes et femmes, tous avaient à la bouche ce mot d’association, symbole de salut, qui semblait avoir en soi quelque vertu mystique. On criait « Association, association » comme jadis les vilains criaient : « Commune ! » et les Croisés « Dieu le veut ! » (Lettre de Pauline Roland à Guépin, 10 mai 1850)
