Excellent article in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung today by @menger_tom, who presented findings from his PhD research into colonial warfare from a trans-imperial perspective for the @sheffmihg earlier this year. Well worth a read!

@_hnnhlzbthprkr @samira_saramo @RoryHanna That sounds fascinating! We're still working out our plans for 2021/22, but Samira, if you're in 🇨🇦 or 🇫🇮 rather than 🇬🇧, would you be interested in giving an online paper, potentially in the autumn? If you like, you can write to us at sheffieldmihg[@]https://t.co/qQI9aeAM0W
