"Apprenticeship, information, human capital and development: Britain on the eve of the Industrial Revolution"
Call for papers
The main aim of the workshop is to gather new researchers in a friendly and non-imposing environment where they can present their research and receive constructive criticism from their peers and leading economic historians. Another aim of the workshop is to demonstrate the breadth of Economic History as an academic discipline, so there is no theme to the workshop, and submissions are encouraged from any sub-field of economic and social history. The workshop is open for presentations by PhD students and post-docs. Non-presenters are also encouraged to participate, so please register even if you do not wish to present a paper. Scandinavian scholars or scholars based in Scandinavia will be given preference. Please note that there will be a registration fee of 500 DKK (€70).
- Deadline for submission of abstract (one page): October 2
- Notification of acceptance: October 9
- Registration, payment of registration fee and full paper due by: October 23
