The Norwegian Economic History Association (NØHF) invites submissions for the third Winter Games in Economic History, to be held at BI-Norwegian Business School (Oslo), on 31 January 2025.
Deadline for submission of abstracts: 18 October
We have retained the popular low threshold workshop format for the Winter Games. The aim is to bring together scholars as well as PhD and master level students to help each other to develop new research ideas and paper drafts for publication. We therefore welcome submissions of two kinds: i) paper drafts and ii) outlines of future research projects. Although discussants will be assigned to each paper or research idea, all participants are expected to read colleagues’ papers and contribute to discussions.
The Winter Games will continue to be a broad arena. We apply a broad understanding of economic history and welcome submissions from business history and other, neighbouring fields (i.e. historical political economy, social history, labour history, historical demography, history of economic thought, etc.).
Contributions from master students and junior researchers are as valuable as those from established scholars. “Norwegian” is understood in a most liberal way, i.e., scholars either based in Norway or working on a topic related to it, independent of nationality. Moreover, as a low threshold arena, papers in all stages of preparation are welcome, from your roughest draft to highly polished gems.
Please send a short abstract (up to 300 words) for consideration to: norwegianeconhist@gmail.com Please specify whether your contribution will be a draft paper (i) or the outline of a future research project (ii).
Deadline for submission of abstracts: 18 October
Notification of successful applicants: 1 November
Deadline for submission of papers and outlines: 17 January 2025
