week) I am sending you a reminder of the following call for
papers.

Issues
The National Museum of Unification, Alba Iulia, „Iuliu Maniu” Center for
Political and Historical Studies, University of Alba Iulia, is pleased to
announce the organizing of a conference with the title
“Alcoholism – historical and social issues”
The aim of this conference is to discuss the different aspects of
alcoholism around the world, and also to promote an interdisciplinary
dialogue between different branches of science (history, anthropology,
sociology, psychology or medicine), and to promote a comparative analysis
between eastern and western European patterns of alcoholism.
At the same time, the conference is intended to encourage the improvement
of alcoholism studies in Romania.
The conference will be held on 28-29 August 2009 at the National Museum
of Unification, Alba Iulia, Romania.
