Young Scholar session

ESHET invites young scholars (i.e. those who are working on or have just completed a PhD, regardless of their age) to submit their work to the Young Scholars Seminar to be held on the occasion of the ESHET Conference.

Four submissions will be selected: ESHET will cover board, accommodation and registration fees plus travel expenses up to €300. The authors of the selected papers will have 30 minutes each to present the paper and a senior scholar, appointed by the ESHET Council, will discuss it. Papers may be on any topic relevant to the history of economics, and are not restricted to the conference theme. ESHET encourages young scholars to participate in the conference. A one-year ESHET membership is offered to all young scholars who submit a paper.

Candidates should e-mail a paper no longer than 9000 words to Professors Ragip Ege and Tiziano Raffaelli (ege@cournot.u-strasbg.fr and t.raffaelli@fls.unipi.it), by 10 January 2010. The results of the selection process will be communicated to the candidates by 15 February 2010. Papers that have not been selected will be considered for presentation at other conference sessions.
