FRESH meetings are aimed at researchers in any field of economic and
social history. The meetings build on the concept that scholars present
their ongoing research at anearly stage, i.e. normally before it
becomes published as a working paper or the like, and certainly before
it is published in books or journals. The main aim of the meetings is to
gather researchers in a friendly and non-imposing environment where they
can present their research and receive constructive criticism from their
peers.
The FRESH meeting organisers strive to accommodate as many speakers as
possible. Accepted papers will normally receive 30 minutes each (20
minutes for presentation and 10 minutes for discussion). However, in the
interest of avoiding parallel sessions, the presentation time may be
shortened. In the event of space constraints, please note that FRESH
members and members of the hosting faculty (or geographically close
institutions) will be given preference.
For this meeting we particularly encourage papers on banking and
financial history, but submissions from scholars working in all areas of
economic history are very welcome.
The organizers offer lunch, dinner and other refreshments on the day of
the meeting, but accommodation and travel must be covered by the
participants themselves. Also, there will be a registration fee for this
meeting of 70 EUR payable on acceptance of your submission.
Prospective speakers should submit a one-page abstract and a short CV to
Jacob Weisdorf
(e-mail: jacob.weisdorf econ.ku.dk no later than 1 March 2010.
Notification of acceptance will be given by the middle of March 2010.
The Belfast FRESH meeting is organized by John Turner (local organizer),
Paul Sharp www.keynes.dk/fresh/contact.htm and Jacob Weisdorf www.keynes.dk/fresh/contact.htm
