Exploring the ways women and men experience the many aspects of war, this conference brings together scholars and practitioners from a broad range of disciplines to assess the impact of gender on military socialization, the changing nature of war, developments in weapons and the strategic use of atrocity, and the role played by memory, mourning, and the quest for meaning. This is Radcliffe Institute's fourth annual conference on women, gender, and society.

This program was sponsored by The Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University.
