Call for papers: World War I in America: Violence, Crime, Masculinity, Genre
 
I am looking for papers to include on a panel at the ³Space Between²

Contributors will likely be women who are too young to be Second Wave, too old to be Third Wave, and perhaps too theoretically (and academically) oriented to feel entirely "post-feminist."
