Media, War & Conflict Journal’s tenth anniversary conference will be held on 22-23 May 2018 at Accademia Europea Di Firenze, Florence, Italy.

There have been significant transformations in the way war and conflict is produced, enacted, negotiated, remembered and ‘felt’ in, through and with media. The aim of the event is to consider, evaluate and reflect upon these transformations through the themes: Spaces of War and War of Spaces.

• The ethics of war and media ethics
