The $10,000 Laura Shannon Prize in Contemporary European Studies is now accepting nominations for history and social science books published in 2018 or 2019.

Administered by the Nanovic Institute for European Studies at the University of Notre Dame, the Laura Shannon Prize is awarded annually to the author of the best book in European studies that transcends a focus on any one country, state, or people to stimulate new ways of thinking about contemporary Europe as a whole.  (“Contemporary” is construed broadly, and books about particular countries or regions have done well in the process so long as there are implications for the remainder of Europe.)

Nominations are submitted by completing a simple electronic form. Nominations may be made by authors or publishers and require only two copies of each nominated work.  The deadline for submissions is January 31, 2020.  (Copies of the book do not need to arrive by the deadline so long as the electronic form is completed.)  Additional details about the prize and the nomination form are available on the website: http://nanovic.nd.edu/shannon-prize/.
