2022 Annual Conference Call for Papers

Proposals for papers, or for panels of papers, are solicited for the annual conference of the Economic and Social History Society of Ireland, which will be held at Maynooth University on Friday 28th and Saturday 29th October 2022.

The keynote address will be delivered by Annie Tindley, Professor of British and Irish History at Newcastle University, and proposals relating to all aspects of Irish economic and social history, from medieval to modern, will be considered.

Proposals from doctoral and early career researchers are particularly welcome, and we are pleased to announce that the Economic and Social History Society of Ireland will once more be awarding a ‘new researchers prize’ for the best paper presented to the annual conference by a graduate student.

Details of previous winners can be found on the ESHI website and presenters wishing to be considered for the prize should indicate this clearly when submitting a proposal.

Abstracts of papers and proposals for panels should be sent to Dr Jonathan Wright ([email protected]) and Dr Sarah Roddy ([email protected]) by Friday 30 September 2022 at the latest.

Abstracts should be between 250 and 300 words, and panel proposals should include a title, contact details for all speakers and abstracts for all papers to be included in the session.
