CfP: Dossier História em Revista "Cultural Heritage of Health and Welfare: reflections on a multidisciplinary field"

The cultural heritage of health and welfare consists of the set of objects and buildings, as well as intangible practices, that have developed in the context of the welfare and health care provided to different individuals. It is a type of heritage that has become increasingly important as a result of individual initiatives - by historians, archivists, architects, doctors, among others - and national and international research networks.

The aim of this dossier is to provide an opportunity to disseminate research that reflects on the disciplinary field of the history of the cultural heritage of health and welfare at national and international level. Proposals for articles should deal with themes relevant to the scientific field of the cultural heritage of health and care, using documentation available in archival, bibliographic, museological, iconographic and sound collections, as well as architectural heritage, observing the domains of theoretical, methodological and historiographical reflection, and contemplating any geographical or chronological context.
