SUMMARY:The Committed Neutrality - A transnational history of spanish hu
 manitarianism in a global context from the first world war to the 1920s
DESCRIPTION:Building on the dynamic initiated during a workshop held in 
 2024\, this conference seeks to gather separate initiatives and to bring
  together specialists to address historiographical gaps concerning Spani
 sh actions during the war. As few studies go beyond 1918\, the conferenc
 e examine these actions from a global perspective in the context of the 
 1920s by comparing them with the actions of other institutions and neutr
 al countries\, such as Sweden\, Denmark\, the Vatican and the ICRC.\nThi
 s initiative is based on the conviction that this approach will produce 
 more inspiring\, relevant and compelling research for understanding the 
 connections between institutions across multiple countries and sources w
 ritten in multiple languages. This is especially promising given the ric
 h archives produced by the Spanish monarchy during the war\, which have 
 recently been included by the UNESCO in its «Memory of the World» Prog
 ramme.\nThe conference will also provide an opportunity to broaden the d
 isciplinary\, geographical and temporal scope of First World War Studies
 . The aim is to develop an integrative perspective on humanitarian actio
 n and ‘transnational neutrality’\, examining the humanitarian challe
 nges faced by neutral countries and institutions that were literally cau
 ght in the crossfire on different fronts.
