Young scholars are invited to present summaries of their doctoral research at the XIIIth 
Congress of the International Economic History Association, which will be held at 
Buenos Aires in July 2002.

The XIIIth Congress will offer four dissertation prizes. A call for submission of dissertations
will be issued in early 2000 with a deadline for submission on 15 April, 2001. The 
presentations will be held for the different periods: Ancient and Medieval; Early Modern;
Modern before World War I, and Modern after World War I. We expect summaries of the
dissertations to be published in a conference volume.

To be eligible for these sessions candidates must have been awarded their doctorate
 or equivalent after 1 January, 1997 and not later than 31 December, 2000. 

Young scholars interested in participating in these sessions should write without delay 
to Prof. Dr. Jan Luiten van Zanden (address below).

They should specify the title of the thesis, the names of the supervisor and jury members,
and the institution that awarded the degree. Please do not send the theses.
