"#Mountain#Huts in the #Anthropocene Era"

> We welcome contributions from the following non-exclusive fields: human and social sciences, architecture, economics and marketing, civil engineering and resource management. Comparative perspectives are strongly encouraged in so far as they enable us to address the issue of huts, especially those that deal with places that allow people to stay in a remote environment that is difficult to access and requires shelter or logistical support (such as scientific laboratories in Antarctica).
