Prof Hassett presented a paper on ‘Rethinking the French Model of Military Welfare from the Colonies’. He discussed how the conditionality of rights and the devolution of services to paternalist and authoritarian philanthropic organisations in the French colonies calls into question our broader understanding of French veteran welfare as public, participative, and rights-based.
