The International Institute for Social History will organize the
Eighth European Social Science History conference at the Bijloke Site in Ghent, Belgium, 13 - 16 April 2010.
The aim of the ESSHC is bringing together scholars interested in explaining historical phenomena using the methods of the social sciences.
The conference is characterized by a lively exchange in many small groups, rather than by formal plenary sessions.
The conference welcomes papers and sessions on any historical topic and any historical period.
It is organized in 28 networks, which cover a certain topic. The conference language is English.
As of March 15 is it also no longer possible to pay the lower conference fee online/in advance. If you have not handled the final registration and payment yet, you can do so at the conference desk in Ghent.
