The Society for Military History

Following the successful use of the model format by the AHA for late breaking and urgent topics, the SMH invites panel and roundtable submissions for a limited number of sessions that place contemporary military and strategic events—including but not limited to conflicts in Ukraine, Syria, Gaza, and Sudan;  tensions in the Pacific; the impact of changing political administrations on civil-military relations; and the use of emerging technologies in warfare -- within the context of military history. We will only accept full panel and roundtable submissions for consideration (not individual submissions) for these additional panels with a late-breaking nature to contribute to our understanding of complex issues.

The deadline for submissions will be January 27th at 11:59 CST. 

Please submit your full proposals in one PDF document to smhconferences@gmail.com.

Submissions should include:

• Session title (of no more than 20 words)
• Session abstract (up to 500 words)
• Short session abstract for the meeting app (up to 50 words)
• Panel and roundtable titles 
• Abstract or description for each presentation on the panel (up to 300 words); not required for roundtable submissions
• Biographical paragraph or CV summary (up to 250 words) for each participant
• Correct e-mail address for each participant
• Affiliation, city, state, and country for each participant

Acceptances will be sent out by February 1st and accepted participants should be prepared to make short notice travel plans.
