The program committee invites proposals for panels or single papers on any historical subject, time period, or region. All fields and periods of history are welcome, as are roundtables on issues of interest to the historical profession. In order to foster discussions across national boundaries, we particularly encourage the submission of panels organized along thematic rather than national lines. All proposals will be vetted by a transnational group of scholars, and preference will be given to discussions of any topic across national boundaries. This said, single papers and panel proposals that fall within a single national or regional context will be given full consideration. In order to encourage conversations across historical periods, we particularly encourage proposals that include premodern time periods.
Please find submission forms and guidelines available at: www.wawh.org
Deadline: September 14, 2012
Call for Chairs & Commentators:
The Program Committee also invites self-nominations from scholars willing to serve as commentators or panel chairs. If you plan to attend the 2013 meeting and would like to apply to serve as a chair or commentator, please submit a brief statement outlining your fields of research, areas of expertise, and topics of special interest and your short vitae. Specify the role(s) you are willing to play. We invite colleagues who are not part of a proposed session or have submitted an individual paper proposal to apply. Please find submission forms available at: www.wawh.org
Deadline: September 14, 2012
