SUMMARY:European Academies in World War I (1914-1925)
DESCRIPTION:Evaluating the multiple roles played by the Academies during th
 e war is difficult. However, the Academies did clearly take their whole sha
 re in the mobilization of material, human and intellectual resources needed
  for the conduct of the war. Which proper responsibilities, modes of action
  and influence did they assume? In which scientific or technical domains we
 re they more particularly active? Although the subject of science, especial
 ly chemistry, in the Great War has attracted a good deal of attention in re
 cent years, the role of academies in the conflict has been little studied. 
 Following an inaugural conference, held under the auspices of the Academia 
 Leopoldina in Halle in 2014, two further conferences are planned for the sp
 ring of 2017 and the autumn of 2018 to continue work in this neglected area
 . Like the initial gathering in Halle, the conferences in 2017 and 2018 wil
 l be broad in their international coverage, and they will seek to maintain 
 a strongly comparative focus. They will take account of the full range of t
 he sciences and technology, including the medical sciences, and set the wor
 k of academies in a broad context embracing the relations between the diver
 se military, industrial, and political elements that bore on the conduct of
  the war.\n\nImage: University Library Leuven, destroyed. University Archiv
