World Congress of Cliometrics 2013

7th World Congress of Cliometrics
Honolulu, Hawai‘i, USA
June 18-21, 2013

The 7th World Congress of Cliometrics will be held in Honolulu, Hawai‘i, USA from June 18-21, 2013. The Congress will be hosted by the University of Hawai‘i-Mānoa. All sessions will be held at the Imin Conference Center on the campus of the East-West Center (adjacent to the University of Hawai‘i-Mānoa campus). Funding to help support the conference is provided by the National Science Foundation and the University of Hawai‘i-Mānoa.

The World Congress is designed to provide extensive discussion of new and innovative research in economic history. We expect 80 to 90 papers to be selected for presentation and discussion. These are sent out to all conference participants 6 weeks in advance. Each paper is devoted a session, in which authors have 5 minutes to make an opening statement and the rest of the session is devoted to discussion among all conference participants. Conference participants are expected to read the papers for the sessions that they attend.

We will be opening the World Congress website for paper submissions, hotel reservations, and conference registration on Thursday, November 15, 2012. We will accept paper submissions through January 23, 2013. Those wishing to present a paper should provide an abstract and a 3-5 page summary of the proposed paper.

We particularly encourage paper proposals from graduate students conducting research in economic history. A grant from the National Science Foundation provides support for travel and accommodations for graduate students who present a paper at the World Congress.
