This conference brings together scholars, researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and clergy to address issues of working poverty in the United States. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics defines the working poor as “people who spent at least 27 weeks in the labor force (that is, working or looking for work) but whose incomes still fell below the official poverty level.”
This is a call for contributions for an anthology tentatively entitled A History of World Peace since 1750. While recent works by Lawrence Wittner, Peter Stearns, and David Cortright (among others) have added much to the diverse field of peace studies, there is a growing interest in new examinations of peace as a global phenomenon. Already, numerous scholars from diverse academic disciplines have agreed to contribute to this collection.
The Jewish Institute of Religion at Hebrew Union College will host an interdisciplinary, national conference on engaging working poverty in Cincinnati, OH, December 4–6, 2016. This conference brings together scholars, researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and clergy to address issues of working poverty in the United States.
The Register of the Kentucky Historical Society invites manuscript proposals for a special issue, “Debating War in Kentucky,” which will be published in 2019. Because Kentuckians are often celebrated for their fighting spirit, those individuals and groups in the state who have questioned war have often been downplayed or ignored by historians. We seek papers exploring debates about war and militarism in Kentucky, from the Revolutionary War through the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts in the early 2000s.

When wars end the communities, veterans, and governments that waged them begin the processes of peace. From the reconstruction of national identities to the resettlement of refugees, postwar periods are often as complex as the conflicts themselves. The year 2016 marks the anniversaries of the first year of peace following the end of the War of 1812, the U.S. Civil War, the Second World War, and the Vietnam War.
A special issue of Feminist Formations will feature feminist analyses of the production of homefronts; highlight, interrogate, and complicate how homefront ideologies produce gendered nationalisms during wartimes; mute civilian and military opposition to war; and domesticate the militarism of everyday life.
2016 is an anniversary year that serves as a useful marker for academics and activists to contemplate where we stand in our understanding of peace and how to achieve it. June 2016 is the bicentenary of the establishment of the (London) Peace Society. Alongside the formation of the New York Peace Society, its appearance is widely seen as representing the beginning of the modern peace movement.
