The Program Committee (John Wallis, University of Maryland (chair), together with Dan Bogart, Karen Clay, and Tracy Dennison) welcomes submissions on ALL subjects in economic history, though some preference will be given to papers that specifically fit the theme. Papers should be submitted individually, but authors may suggest to the Committee that three particular papers fit well together in a panel.
Papers should in all cases be works in progress rather than accepted or published work. Submitters should let the program committee know at the time of application if the paper they are proposing has already been submitted for publication. Individuals who presented or co-authored a paper given at the 2013 meeting are not eligible for inclusion in the 2014 program.
THE DEADLINE TO SUBMIT PROPOSALS HAS NOW PASSED!
