Call for Papers for the 18th annual congress of the European Business History Association 21-23 Zugust, 2014 Comparative Business History: Contrasting Regions, Sectors, and Centuries Most business historians focus firmly on the 20th century and after, while some also deal with the 19th century. Earlier periods receive scant attention and comparisons across centuries are rare. For the 2014 EBHA Utrecht conference we encourage participants to take radically different perspectives and take a long-term view in comparing business activities across different periods of time, to compare similarities and differences, and to reflect about their meaning. Proposals for papers and/or sessions related to the theme of the conference are especially welcome, although paper and /or session proposals not directly related to the theme will also be considered. A paper proposal should include a title and an abstract of no more than 400 words plus a brief CV of the author. Session proposals should include a brief abstract of the session along with an abstract plus CV for each participant. For more information and to submit paper and/or session proposals, please visit the Congress website: www.ebha-2014.eu. The deadline for the submission of session and paper proposals is 15 January 2014.
