This is the final call for paper and panel proposals for the H-Net
affiliated sessions at the annual meeting of the American Historical
Association, which will be held in San Francisco, January, 3-6, 2002. As an affiliated organization of the AHA, H-Net organizes sessions in
conjunction with the annual meeting of the AHA. Affiliated sessions are
listed in the AHA program and treated comparably to the AHA sessions.
The AHA 2002 Program Committee has chosen the theme "Frontiers." H-Net is composing panels that explore new frontiers of research, teaching, and outreach in the information age.
