To encourage the study of labor, Labor History is pleased to announce an annual Dissertation Prize for labor studies, broadly defined. In keeping with the journal's dedication to a multi-disciplined approach to the field, and its commitment to chronological and geographical breadth, the prize will be awarded to the best Ph.D. dissertation on a labor topic, historical or contemporary, in the US or worldwide, regardless of discipline.
Winners will receive an award of £750, and publicity in both the journal and the Labor History website.
