THIRTY YEARS ON - A CONFERENCE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF KENT

Details have arrived of a Conference at the University of Kent entitled "The Falklands Conflict 30 years on". The conference will open on Thursday 26th April, 2012 and ends on Saturday 28th April. The papers I have received say 'To mark the 30th anniversary of the conflict, the School of History and the Centre for Journalism at the University of Kent will unite policy makers, academics and reporters at a unique conference. Argentine and British historians of the conflict and journalists who covered it will share analyses, perspectives and memories with residents of the islands and service personnel who fought over them. The registration fee is £35 with reductions for students and South Atlantic Medal holders. Full residential costs including all meals and the conference dinner are £246.20 and day delegate rates are available. I await electronic copies of the application form and flyer from Professor Mark Connelly.
