DaCNet is pleased to invite abstracts for Death & Culture III. This interdisciplinary and international research network welcomes a broad range of papers, whether rooted in empirical studies or in conceptual and theoretical engagements which focus on cultural responses to mortality.

We welcome contributions on topics including, but not limited to:
- Death and the popular imagination
- Work in death and death-ajacent industries

- Death in the digital age
- Mass death in the age of individualsm
- Artistic approaches to mortality
