Call for Nominations for 2018 CES European Studies Book Award

The Council for European Studies (CES) is calling for nominations for its 2018 European Studies Book Award Competition. The CES Book Award honors the work of talented, new scholars and is given for the best first book on any subject in European Studies published within a two-year period. 

A multi-disciplinary Book Award Committee appointed by the Council’s Executive Committee will choose the winner and a formal presentation of the award will be conducted at CES’ 25th International Conference of Europeanists (Chicago, March 28-30, 2018). The winning author will receive $1000 and travel assistance to attend the conference and award ceremony. Both the winner and top two finalists will be recognized in all CES publications and on our website.
