2008 CNEH Conference Call for Papers
April 18-20, 2008
Montreal, QC

Theme: Inequality and Economic Development in the Long Run
Keynote Speaker: Jean-Laurent Rosenthal (Caltech)

The Canadian Network for Economic History invites proposals for its 
April 18-20, 2008 conference in Montreal, Quebec. Although we expect 
that about half of the conference sessions will focus on the theme: 
"Inequality and Economic Development in the Long Run", submissions 
related to other Canadian and international economic history topics 
are also welcome. To be considered, please email a 2 page abstract to 
Ian Keay (ikeay at econ.queensu.ca) or Chris Minns (c.mins at lse.ac.uk). 
The deadline for abstract submissions is December 15, 2007. Authors 
of the papers selected for presentation should expect to be notified 
by mid-January. Proposals from graduate students and junior scholars 
are particularly encouraged. Funds may become available to partially 
reimburse the travel and accommodation costs of such participants. 
Information on the venue and programme will be posted on the 2008 
CNEH Conference web page (http://qed.econ.queensu.ca/CNEH/) as it 
becomes available.
