Boksläpp: Violence and Warfare in Social Context

Evenemang

Datum: onsdag 23 april 2025

Tid: 15.00 – 16.00

Plats: Rum 334 / Zoom

War is often viewed through the lens of strategy, statecraft,and technological progress. However, both war and violence in general are deeply rooted in social and cultural frameworks.

From Mesolithic conflicts to Early Modern naval warfare, this interdisciplinary anthology explores the practice and perception of various forms of violence in past societies, revealing patterns that prompt reflection on modern assumptions about war. Blending insights from Conflict Archaeology and War Studies, the work underscores the critical value of material culture in understanding the complexities of warfare, both theoretically and methodologically. For Conflict Archaeology and war scholars, this work advances a perspective that situates violence and warfare within broader social and cultural contexts, emphasizing that war is more than just tactics and technology – it is a social reality embedded in both human action and material culture.
